Find A Friend
Let's play Find A Friend! Post your first name, one hobby, and one random fact about you! Also post two qualities you look for in a friend! If you feel you match someone's else's qualities, reply and say hi to your new friend! :)
I'll start: My name is Olivia. I have really been into crocheting lately, once I have free time from schoolwork. A random fact about me is that I have been to tons and tons of concerts and get super crazy about them, even though I'm naturally shy. It's like it brings out another side of me. Two qualities I'd like in a friend are that they must be able to geek out with me to music, and they must love dogs!
Who's next?? :)
Hi my name is June. I like cooking and trying new recipes. I do yoga to relax and unwind. I recently moved and haven't met many people in this town yet. I love poetry and writing poems. I'm " over 30" and can relate to many problems because I've been there..done that:) I don't judge people because I don't like being judged. I'm honest, trustworthy and cherish my friends. If you need a friend to talk to I understand because I do too.
Hi June
Hi polite..nice to meet you. Always nice to make a friend. Women our age often find we can relate to similar situations..:)
Hi pear, I am just over 40 :). Same thing here. I'm isolated, know no one I feel I can really go and talk to. I practice yoga and it helped a lot. I stopped and have my first noticeable sign of depression.
Hi polite. Nice to meet you. I found that yoga helped me to unwind and sleep better. I think it's the deep breathing and controlled breaths that helped. I also feel signs of depression. I know I have several valid reasons to be depressed but I don't want to give in to them. So glad you answered my post :)
Hi purple. I just saw your post. It is nice to talk to someone from "my generation" lol
Hey! :) lol. Most people here seem to be young, which makes me feel older! Nice to meet you! :)
Well we are young at heart and rich with experience. I don't realize I'm older until I look in mirror..:) a lot of young people are on here but our mature heart hurts too. Glad we found each other.
@purplePear1228 True! Reading these forum posts sometimes makes me feel kinda old! I'm here for you. Fellow yogi, gardener, musician. Nice to meet you. :)
In response to bravePear8242.. Hi June! And welcome :-)
Hi Diamond. Thank you for responding to my post. So nice to make new friends. Hope we meet again in a forum or chat room. :)
Hi!
My name is Mark.
My hobby is playing video games.
I am very tall :P
I want a friend who can listen to my problems, and can help me with them, also the other way around and who will always be there for me.
Hey I'm Melissa. I love listen to music. If you would like to be friends with me I have to say something I'm so sad all the time but I promise that I will help you as I can and I'm little bit clingy tbh. I don't have a quality for a friend. I just want someone like me and Iwant someone to never give up on me cause I will never give up on you.
Hey!
Hey delightfulBiscuit do you have kik? If you want we can talk on there.
Hey Melissa, do you have a Facebook or Skype? We can always talk and I'm open to anyone. Im also clingy so I think we can be both be friends. If you have any other suggestions to contact feel free totell me. ^ ^
Hey generousBeechwood7970, I have Instagramand Skype but I forgot my password in Skype,if you want to talk on Skype I can open an account.
Sure anything you feel comfortable with. Skype would be fun & if not instagram is ok. ^ ^
@Lovely1313 @generousBeechwood7970 Not trying to be pushy or preachy, but just a heads up, we're not supposed to share outside contact info here
Hi Melissa. I'd love to be there for you , I'll give you as much support as you can take , I'm a great listener and fiercely loyal.
Thanks Guyon1that's so lovely.
Hi Melissa. Are you on kik messenger. X
Hi there! Not sure if you know this, but sharing social media (facebook, Skype, kik, etc.) goes against 7 Cups policy. I know that this is super annoying and frustrating when you just want to help and make a friend; however, that policy is there for a reason! We at 7 Cups want all of our members and listeners to be safe from harm, and that involves protecting their privacy. I hope you understand that this is just a safety precaution here!
Rebecca I'm so sorry. I'm really so sorry, I really forgot it. I'm so sorry. I really forgot that I'm so sorry.

Hello, my name is Esther, my hobby is reading and writing. I love philosophy and charm me by every word I read, for each thing I feel. A random fact is that I love my lasagna and feel much miss my boyfriend. Two qualities that I would like a friend, is that it is funny and who can cook
@hope12346
hi hope! We share the same passion for reading, writing, philosophy, and humor! Want to be friends?
Hi I'm Emily. I love writing poetry and watching movies. I am fascinated with nature. I look for empathy and loyalty in a friend. I enjoy listening to music and photography.
Hi Emily. Do you happen to have any idea how you would like to be contacted out of 7cups? If so pls tell me. I'd love to know and get to know you more ^ ^
Hey there! I'm not sure if you knew this or not, but sharing social media accounts (facebook, Skype, instagram, etc.) goes against community guidelines! I know this can be frustrating when you wan to make friends, but it protects our members' safety and privacy.

Hey Emily, Im Hanan. I have to say i can relate to everything you said =) Poetry, Nature, Photography, Music and i think some other things too haha.
Hello i am edjung, I am lonely and i am looking to find new friends. I thought this would be a safe start to begin with. The only thing i Like at this moment is running, i am still looking to find out other things i may like.
Hi, I'm Mariah I'm 21. Love music .. especially classic rock/hardrock. I like Marvel films. I recently started singing on IG (bad singer alert). I would like to have a friend to chat to .. share dumb stuff and lame jokes with .. Okay?
Hi, I'm Jake, 20. I'm a musician myself, my favorite genre is probably progressive rock/metal. I'd love to be able to sing but I assume I just wasn't meant to do that. XD I'm also cool with funny stories and stupid jokes.
Is there a way for members to PM each other? Since any kind of social media handles are removed from the forums, it makes this whole friend-finding post a little difficult. XP
Hey Jake! Sounds cool, I'm a rock fan and can sing too. Feel free to pm me (:
Because then what would be the purpose of having listeners? :P
Hi im jenny 45yrs old new to this eekk ive suffered from bouts of depression anxity n personality disorder for a few years now
Hi Jenny. I understand about ur depression n anxiety as I fight with it everyday as well as schizophrenia. If you ever feel like talking bout it let me know. Im looking to make new friends too
Hi I'm in my 40's (mostly) I live in London and I'm female, I have PTSD anxiety and BPD for the past 6 yrs, random fact about me : I'm terrified of balloons. I'd like to talk to other females especially from the U.K , I work within mental health which gives me great insight into my work.
Hi brokemind. Its always nice to know more about u. Hugs broke.
How are you doing politecups? I'm on a bit of a downer at the moment and can't seem to shift it. I only ever seem to find teenagers on here, are you in the uk? Not that it matters I was just curious,
Hey Broke! I'm not teenager :) I'm 28 and my best friend is 40 :D unfortunately I'm not in or from UK. I'm from middle east. Why r u feeling down lately? I'm feeling down too sadly! My eyes are more opened to my life and I'm understanding more that everyone around me try to put me down. Even my friends from years. And I find my self all the time blamed and hearing negative comments and even if it is by joking but it's harsh and they don't do it to each other. Only to me! Sorry but I just needed to vent a bit :) I think u have a great job broke! Keep writing to us and to me :) I will be more than glad to hear from u
Hi cups, my work involves me supporting others with serious mental health problems, it's great to be able to make others feel better but once I leave and come home to my empty house I feel like I'm the one who needs support. I have to smile and motivate by day but I cry and isolate myself by night. I'm doing part time now and even that is beginning to feel to much for me.
Oh that must be depressing. I'm sorry for how u feel? How about some sort of activity that would kill the isolation? R u enjoying 7cups? Did u meet some good listeners? I do talk with them when I feel depressed. I feel depressed even with my friends sometimes! I really with to catch u once in the chatting room
My biggest activity at the moment is getting up to grab a coffee! I've not spoken to anyone 1on1I wouldn't know where to start. I know I won't see anyone until I go back to work on Tuesday. The solitude is bad news when your head is at a most of the time.
Well 1 on 1 listeners most of them are very nice and u can start by saying I'm bored. I feel lonely. Anything u want. It's realllllllly a great thing here at least for me. Broke what about friends, family or partner?
Haven't had a partner for 6 yrs it's easier this way,I don't have to explain myself to anyone. I don't have family really as I grew up in a children's home. I do have a daughter same age as you actually, but she's busy working and having a life.. She is very good to me though and helps a lot
I'm sorry if I interfered in ur personal life. Of course u don't have to explain ur self to any1. And I agree with you that sometimes life is easier without a partner. I have a partner which I didn't see in 4 years due to some awful circumstances and now I don't have feelings for him anymore. It's a very weird feeling. It's amazing that u have a lovely daughter and I'm sure she is lucky to have u. I'm sorry again if I my questions were too personal.
Relax politecups, it's fine to ask me questions. Xx
i love you prfile picture =)
Me! Thanks. I love it toooooo :D
i love you prfile picture =)
I'm 33 years old and have depression off and on for a while, as well as anxiety for many years. My life is very small and simple with a few friends and little joy. I also struggle very much with loneliness. I have had no real relationship for about 3 years and have had no real family around. I hate being alone but also welcome it at times because it is less drama and disappointment. I'd like to find and talk to others who understand.
Hi scarlet..I read your post and I have those feelings too. I've just been here a few days and it has helped me. Welcome and hope we meet again in chat or forums..:)
Hi ScarletPal2365. My name is Mariah. And I can most definitely relate with you. Just know that you are not along in this and that I welcome you :-)
I've been on here about 5 days and have met a couple people and regulary talk to a 1 on 1 listener. Hope to continue this. While I don't wish this on others, I take some comfort knowing I'm not really alone...even if all of you are just virtual.
I am v ery real..;)
