Two days until 2025, and I’m back on the “finding a bromance/best friend” journey. Can anyone explain why making new friends in your late 30s is so tough?
A little about me and what I’m looking for: I’m hoping to find that rare connection, the kind of friendship where you can just be real and open. You know, the kind where you can say, “Hey man, had a tough day—what do you think about this?” or “New movie out, wanna grab a beer? My wife/husbands not into it, you free?” I miss having that go-to person (or people) in my corner. Since the pandemic, elections, and just growing out of my 20s, my social circle has shrunk to practically a dot. I’m hoping to change that.
I’m all about good banter, meaningful conversation, and that real “best friend/bromance” vibe where even our significant others raise an eyebrow—haha. Ideally, I’m looking for someone local, but I’m open to making things work, even with distance. I’m cool with chatting on Reddit, but I’d love to move to phone calls, texts, or whatever works best.
A little about me: I’m 36, married to a guy, and I live in the Southwest USA. I love traveling, checking out breweries, good food, hiking, paddle boarding, and I’m an amateur photographer who’s into art. I’m also a true crime junkie, theme park lover, and a bit of an urban explorer. Adventure is my thing. Oh, and I’m a proud dog dad and a healthcare professional. Comic books are my escape.
I’d love to connect with someone who’s married—whether you’re gay, straight, or anywhere in between, I just want real energy, honesty, and effort.
Happy New Year, all! Let’s make this year about real connections.
