Announcement Sub Updates: Rules & Post Flair

9 Upvotes

Hey Bros!

I've gone through and updated the sub rules and the post flairs available. Here are the substantive changes you should be aware of:

RULES

  1. As previously noted, the NSFW rule was updated to include a prohibition on requests for nudist friends/chats.
  2. The Shitposting/Targeting rule has been updated to exclude any sort of harassment, bullying, or targeting, as well as all shitposting, spamming, or posting of any complaints that should be sent through ModMail.
  3. The "Age in Title" rule has been updated to just require the age somewhere in the post when that post is a request for bros. You will no longer receive a warning or removal for it not specifically being in the title.
  4. The prohibition on multiple posts has been amended to only disallow posting the same or substantially similar post within a one-week period. Users may post different types of posts as often as desired (so long as it does not become so incessant that it's spam).

POST FLAIR

Post flair will now be required on all posts. The new flair are:

  1. Looking for: Bromance - for posts seeking a long-term, serious platonic relationship.
  2. Looking for: Brollaboration - for posts seeking collaboration, support, or advice about a specific project or goal you have.
  3. Looking for: IRL Bro - for posts seeking only real-life bros for hangouts and meetups (it is helpful to include your location in these types of requests).
  4. Looking for: Online Bro - for posts seeking strictly online platonic relationships.
  5. Looking for: Short-Term Chat - for posts seeking a bro to help pass the time for a few hours or to just have a one-off chat.
  6. Question - for posts asking questions about brolationships or seeking advice.
  7. Discussion - for posts attempting to engage bros in discussions about brolationships and things related to them.
  8. Success! - for bros who successfully found the bro they were looking for and want to tell the story (please get the other person(s) permission before including specific usernames)

If you have any questions or concerns about these updates, please comment here or send a ModMail!

Happy Bro Hunting!

We just hit 8000 members! That’s a lot of bros!

To help keep up with the growing sub, we are looking to bring on additional bros as mods. Your main task would be to ensure the rules are being followed and help make this sub a safe and positive place for all bros!

If you’re interested, please send me a DM with some information about yourself and any information about your history modding on Reddit. And let me know why you think you’d be an awesome mod for r/NextBestBro!

Previous mod experience is preferred, but certainly not required!

Hi! I am trying out here again to maybe look and find friends. We can talk about almost everything - from cultural and language exchange to sharing of interests and sharing about our day. I can talk so much as long as you are also giving the same energy. I don't mind your yapping :)

Brief interests and info about me: movies and tv series (I like more horror and sci-fi), musicals, music, writing, and loves dogs and cats. I am also from southeast part of the world so timezones may be different.

You can slide to my DMs. See you :D

3 Upvotes

Greetings and salutations. To me, a bromance is a friendship in which we can share ourselves entirely with no shame, where no topic or situation is truly off the table, where we can joke around but also talk about the important things in life. A bit about me, I'm a regular straight guy, kind of nerdy, gym bro but still starting, would love some encouragement and motivation. I love fantasy novels and enjoy the outdoors, going out with friends, music, mainly early 00s and late 90s but honestly will hear a lot of different genres, and I guess I'm just a normal guy. Hit me up if you think we can hit it off. Deuces.

Hello all, im 29yo guy who needs some more friends. Seems harder to make friends as adult, so decided to give this sub a shot.

I'm a pretty chill guy looking for someone to chat regularly, have deep conversations and build a nice bromance.

Very into movies and music, also trying to play more games. Pretty much a science nerd who's trying to get back to the gym.

Message me if you would like to chat.

Looking for: Bromance 25M | Looking for an older bro with good stories to talk to and laugh with :)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a (very, very recently turned 25!!!) medical student, just came back from France for an internship (it was a wonderful month!! just a bit lonely), who spends way too much time learning about how the human body works and not enough time remembering where I left my keys.

I'm hoping to meet someone genuinely nice and build a friendship that actually lasts. I'm particularly looking for someone older than me, ideally someone who's got a few more years, a few more stories, and perhaps just enough wisdom to make me question some of my life choices :p

A few things about me:

* I love deep conversations about life, goals, psychology, philosophy, and random 2 a.m. thoughts. My sleep schedule is so messed up that at this point, I'm basically available for philosophical emergencies at all hours.

* I enjoy reading (last saga I read was The Poppy War trilogy and I devoured it, it was sooo good), learning new things, and helping people understand complicated topics.

* I occasionally game (mostly MMORPGs like Elsword), watch shows (mostly anime haha, I am VERY excited about the upcoming season 3 of The Apothecary Diaries and the Madoka: Walpurgisnacht Rising movie), and scroll through TikTok when I should probably be studying or sleeping.

I'm the kind of person who can talk about serious life questions one minute and send you the dumbest TikTok I've ever seen the next. I like people who can keep up with both sides of that. I think I tend to click particularly well with people who are a little older. Maybe it's the wisdom, the life experience, or the kindness. Maybe I just enjoy having someone around who can occasionally look at my questionable decisions and go, “You know what? That's actually a terrible idea.” ... although I can't promise I'll listen haha

I'm looking for someone kind, genuine, and able to hold a conversation. Someone I can get comfortable with, talk to regularly, share random bits of my day with, and eventually have those conversations where you look at the clock and realize you've been talking for three hours.

Voice chats are definitely a plus once I warm up to you. I'm shy at first, but give me enough time and you'll probably regret teaching me how to talk.

Bonus points if:

  • You're curious about the world.
  • You like sharing random stories from your day.
  • You have a good sense of humor and don't take yourself too seriously.
  • You can be sweet and reassuring, but also know when to tease me a little.
  • You occasionally have that “come here, let me explain this to you” kind of energy. I can't quite explain why, but apparently that's a weakness of mine. :')
  • You have stories that probably shouldn't be told during a first conversation. Those are usually the interesting ones.

If you've read this far, send me a message and tell me: What's one thing you want people to know about you?

Looking forward to meeting some awesome people! 😊

I’m a 38-year-old gay guy from Florida just looking to meet some chill dudes to chat with and get to know. I’m really into theme parks (can’t beat a good rollercoaster day), movies, music, dance, and traveling. Lately I’ve just been kinda bored at home and thought it’d be cool to connect with some new people, maybe find some bros who are into similar stuff or just down to talk about life.

I’m pretty open-minded, friendly, and easygoing. Hit me up if you wanna chat or just share memes, music, or random convos.

Always down to make new connections

Looking for: Online Bro 35 M Melbourne

Just a guy who loves life. Happy to talk about anything and everything. Hit me up! Ideally, someone married and fit - can talk about anything and nothing off the table.

I love music, concerts, traveling, movies, and animals. How about yourself.

I would love for you to say hello if you have an interesting story to tell. A face pic would be important so I know who I am speaking with - happy to also send one. Let’s make this easy.

A little ice breaker: two of these are completely false. The other eight are things I’ve actually done, survived, or somehow lived to tell the tale.

  1. ⁠I’ve been to more than 50 countries — and apparently still haven’t learned to stay home for holidays.
  2. ⁠I’ve been to more than 100 live concerts — because apparently one concert is never enough.
  3. ⁠I’ve appeared in a movie — Hollywood, unfortunately, has not called since.
  4. ⁠I’ve dived with great white sharks — voluntarily putting myself on the menu.
  5. ⁠I’ve swum with whales — thankfully, none decided to swallow me.
  6. ⁠I’ve been bitten and injured by a dog — a reminder that not every dog thinks I’m a good person.
  7. ⁠I’ve been charged by an elephant — and discovered that “stand your ground” is great wildlife advice.
  8. ⁠I’ve been licked by a giraffe — surprisingly, giraffe tongues are not as cute as they sound.
  9. ⁠I’ve been nibbled by a lion — because apparently getting close enough for a photo wasn’t adventurous enough.
  10. ⁠I’ve been swiped by a bull — and lived to add it to my list of questionable life decisions.

So… which two are the lies? And, more importantly, what does that say about the other eight?

Heyy there! I am looking for friends and it might be you. We can talk about anything or anything you want. I don't mind your yapping. Just mind you that I am in south east part of the world, so our timezones can be a little bit wonky but I still try!

My interests are programming, gaming, writing, music, musicals, and movie and tv series. Hope to see you!

Kiwi, 32, AUDHD, travel addict, foodie, chill, nerdy, star wars, kinda slow at replying. Have a couple good chats going rn but always nice to have extra options.

When I watch Friends and see Joey and Chandler, that’s the type of bromance I’d love to have with someone. A real raw unfiltered connection.

Live in New Zealand, work remote most of the week so generally always on my phone. Night owl so up late so euro or American time zones may align well

M33 chill professional dude in NYC looking for real ones

Hey people, so let’s get my boring summary out of the way.

I’m very easy going dude in his 30s who is in a relationship, professional in a career in business. I’m into movies/film, gaming, music ( all kinds except country , sorry but not sorry lol), gym, dance, artistic expressions, etc. I enjoy deep conversations and truly expanding my knowledge of life.

Now the fun part, what I’m looking for is a true easy going bro who would call me his real one and the same reverse. My career usually eats into my personal life and I’m trying to reverse that with a good circle. All I would ask of you is be yourself and genuine. I honestly am looking for a bro to text with and catch up with regularly. I would like to transition off Reddit into something serious.
