I’m 30F (happily married) and just moved to Portland from Pasadena, CA. I love painting, reading, writing, running, biking, hiking, or taking a walk in the neighborhood.

In need of friends..

49 Upvotes

Well, I’m taking the initiative & putting myself out there. I’m 39 year old good man. Looking to make some real friends. I have no friends these days. I spent all my time on my previous relationship & had no life balance. No that it’s just me, my reality is that I have no one. I know I sound pitiful. Which is probably true to some. But if anyone wants a real nice, good friend with a lot of life experience & who appreciates trust, loyalty, integrity & intelligence. But who’s also a nerd, loves indoor and outdoor activities, loves humor of all levels. Im in Beaverton area. Hope to talk to some new friends soon!

Resident Anyone interested in the fermentation festival?

Hey all, 30M that moved to Portland and doesn't have a social circle to pull into hijinks yet. Heard about this festival and want to go, thought it'd be a good event to meet people at

I've only dabbled so far so I'm by no means a fermentation pro, so either looking for fellow noobies or someone okay with a noob tagging along

Fstival is on the 22nd, hmu if even slightly interested. I can return the favor by going to one of your niche interests lol

Meetup Have you ever wanted to learn photography?

18 Upvotes

48M here. I am a homeowner in Vancouver. I'm posting for Portland because I am taking shots in Oregon 98% of the time. Going through a divorce and I would like to meet a friend to go take nature and wildlife pictures with. I've only been in this area a little over three years and have only just started meeting new people. Unfortunately my two new friends don't do photography and it's my #1 passion.

I have been taking artistic pictures for almost 40 years and I will teach you all I know. I know Canon and Sony cameras. I also shot SLR 35mm film back in the day. I enjoy taking pictures with someone to share the moment and inspire each other.

I'm just looking for a social circle. No games. No ulterior motives.

Obviously we would do public meet ups at first to see if we click and all that before actually hiking around in the woods or wherever. DM me for my Fickr portfolio and socials.

I hope to hear from you all, and please plan on not smoking around me.

Resident 55/m, St Johns, looking for folks around my age who work third shift / overnights

8 Upvotes

I’ve been in Portland about a year, I have some acquaintances, but no one who feels like an actual friend. It can be difficult to find and maintain friendships at my age, especially working overnights. Hoping to find some folks in the same situation. I’m a widower, no kids, just two very spoiled cats. I like karaoke, board / card / tabletop games, pub quizzes, movie nights, and old school diners. I’m not super into being around smoking or vaping, and not into being around high or drunk people.

Intro Post 19M - Making Friends

4 Upvotes

I’m 19M. I’ve lived here my whole life and I had a couple friends at school and a few at my last job. I’m not in touch with these people anymore because I have a hard time keeping and making friends since I’m pretty awkward. No one at my current job is anybody I’d get along with outside of work.
I go to parks sometimes but I never see anybody that I could go up to since people typically go to parks with their friends, too. I don’t drink or smoke.
I enjoy playing video games and going outside the most, but I’d like friends I could do anything with.
Any recommendations for what to do? I’d like to make some genuine, real friends.

Meetup 38F looking for friends who like food on 10/9

39 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I am taking a friend out tonight who is recently divorced. We are looking for friends who want to meet up and chat over dinner. We both met on timeleft and are comfortable meeting new people, but we both left the app recently.

We both like music, trying new food, comedy shows, craft cocktails. We are looking for folks in a similar life stage — late 30s/early 40s, established in Portland with stable jobs, outgoing, and wants to experience Portland’s great foodie scene.

Bonus points if you can easily move from a conversation about your favorite music venue to the implications of AI on the workforce. If this sounds like you, would love to chat!

I do like to go dancing at Hive and Coffin Club, though.

Looking for friends that have a zest for adventure and a taste for the dark and weird with good communication skills and emotional growth. I’m audhd with a chronic illness, so people with experience there, always a bonus! <3

Cameron Whitcomb on 10-13

2 Upvotes

41m Hey, I am going to Cameron Whitcomb this Tuesday 10-13. I am going alone and would like to maybe meet people to enjoy it together. Maybe even go out after for a drink or pancakes. I'm not from Portland and will be driving home after the concert at some point. But looking to enjoy the concert maybe meet people. Nothing has to happen afterwards, could be a one day hangout/meetup session! I do go to a lot of concerts tho so an ongoing thing is acceptable also.
