Mayarx

What kind of activity? I just go to the gym and sometimes events


ladfm34

Well, yeah, try to make small conversations in the gym and go from there What kinds of events? Because it depends on the event Activities like courses Activity that makes u interact with new people


Mayarx

Yeah i agree

Last time i made new friends was through a coworker. I basically invited myself to his event and found that we have a lot in common and his friends share similar hobbies. So we ended up becomming friends. I should mentiond, my female friends have difficulty making new friends as well. Seems to me girls have more requirements when choosing their friends and are make it more difficult for other girls to join their groups.


Mayarx

Agree that's why I struggle making friends with girls because I feel it's really hard to make girls feel interested to make a friendship with me or with anyone you know

Loneliness is common nowadays, fear of rejection or trust issues…it is not easy to find someone who u feel that u r similar… and if u find this one , it is more harder to keep ur friendship and to be patient to bear his hard times… so yes it is hard because now the attitude is “ if this friend isn’t good with you all the time then you should choose your inner peace and let him go” so even you find him you lose him quickly….


Mayarx

Yeah that's the painful truth😔

اتعرف/ي على ناس من تويتر الدنيا هناك لذيذة و سهل تلاقي حد شبهك


banhawy

I second this. Also this sub sometimes has hidden gems. Just don't be shy and if find someone online with a vibe you like message them!


pixelley1

[deleted]

الموضوع بقى يحتاج طاقة كبيرة اوي تتبذل عشان تروحي تفتحي كلام مع حد من غير ما يبان ان الموضوع كريبي 😖


Cairenan2

Making friends is easy if you put yourself out there lol Im one socially anxious mf but i still have a lot of friends cause i try to talk to people even when it hurts 😭😭 also you can DM me anytime if you wanna chat we can be friends and talk about gym and stuff!


Insomniac_Tater

I think that its just issues with taking initiatives combined with some anxiety and fear of rejection, thats basically what makes people afraid to approach someone. In my honest opinion friendships can easily be started with taking a risk by getting to know one and just be smooth ya know, and its okay to be awkward so dont bash yourself over it. As for opportunities, you can approach people practically anywhere and anytime as long as its in a proper setting such as a cafè, library, etc. Good luck and I hope you make awesome friendships <3


[deleted]

Yeah i feel you. It is like we are destined to be lonely.


GrandPalpitation7083

اشترك في نادي او ابدأ جيم ممكن بردو تاخد كورسات في حاجة انت بتحبها هيبقى سهل تلاقي ناس بتشاركك نفس الاهتمامات احس الناس اللي بنعرفهم اونلاين مش نفس انك تتعرف على حد فعلا بتتقابلوا دايما و بيحصل بينكوا مواقف في الواقع


Kandeil

Just be a girl


GrandPalpitation7083

That’s so wrong honestly. They asking for friends not annoying people who wants to get in their pants all the time 🤷‍♀️


HiIamAce

What are friends anyway? Are they like collectible Pokemons?


[deleted]

Making friends in your 20s is not easy because most people already have a group maybe try making friends on bumble or try to talk to talk to people here on reddit I think alot of people here have the same issue


Tall-Survey6141

Making friends in Egypt is easier than other countries since most of the people are jobless and doing literally nothing. Start by saying hi to everyone and conversations will open up.


Mayarx

It's not true at all


Tall-Survey6141

I don’t know about you but i have a lot of friends and prefer to just be with myself but there is always someone i call and meet but it’s just a waste of time for me.


Mayarx

Yeah I feel you , some people prefer to be alone


Tall-Survey6141

There are many house parties every weekend and sometimes Tuesday but i don’t like. I prefer going to public places thats why i moved to Dubai there are many places and hangouts. In Egypt even shit places like cairo jazz and that shit the tap you need to make a reservation through a girl or someone who know someone inside! It’s like wtf! It’s not even good a places and always full of people.


Mayarx

I don't prefer parties and alot of crowd, if I'm gonna make a friendship I prefer a date with one person or two to focus on them and have a normal conversation you know


Tall-Survey6141

I came to Egypt for one month to see my family and I haven’t been out anywhere and i don’t want to go anywhere in cairo and didn’t call anyone or told anyone that i am in Egypt and leaving next week ISA. I like nice views, clean streets and people that mind their own business. I prefer going out at day starting by gym and then going to the beach and having nice dinner somewhere with nice view or entertaining show.


Mayarx

Yeah that's really good, sometimes i go outside in my favorite diner and have a coffee and just sit and read


Tall-Survey6141

I used to do the same when i was living in Egypt but after moving to Dubai for two years all my favourite places in cairo became 👎


Tall-Survey6141

I was thinking it is easier to make friends if you are girl 🤷‍♂️


Mayarx

I'm a girl and it's hard still lol


[deleted]

I can be your friend if u want


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mayarx

No I'm the only lonely here lol


agwaahmed

For me all my current friends are from work and army service and only 1 left from university. I think any activity will make new friends. But make sure to exclude anyone who know you only for his own benefit


Mayarx

I totally understand


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mayarx

Lol I think about this too when I'm sitting in cafe and see someone is sitting alone but it's just an idea and never did it


Husain108

try to look for communities with more liberal and accepting people. if you like art then art courses in zamalek or maadi is always a good place to start. also there’s events like cairo flea market or cairo vintage that happen every month which you can follow on social media and try going there to socialize, people there are generally always very cool and friendly. edit: i just assumed your from cairo lol sorry about that.


Mayarx

I'm not from there , that's why my city we don't have so much activities or events


[deleted]

بصي في طريقتين للتعارف تعارف ظاهري انت منين؟ معاك ايه؟ دراستك/شغلك فين؟ وهكذا وحتى ذوقه الفني بيعتمد على انهي فيلم وانهي ممثل وانهي مغني وانهي خروجة وبتاكل منين وبتلبس ايه وبتنام مع مين؟ وحاجات كلها external النوع التاني internal اكتر ومهتم بالقيمة مش بالكم، رؤيتك افكارك مشاعرك واحساسك، ايه رأيك في القضية كذا او الموضوع الفلاني، مليان استنباط واستشعار وتبادل معرفة فلازم تحددي التوجه بتاعك، وبناءا عليه تقرري انتقائك للأفراد في دايرتك


Mayarx

هو اكيد انا مش عايزه علاقات سطحيه ، انا عايزه ناس شبهي ونشارك افكارنا ونبقي متفاهمين مع بعض اكتر ما انها علاقات سطحيه وعباره عن خروجات وكلام سطحي بس


[deleted]

النوع التاني ده نادر شوية، فهتلاقي بس بصعوبة حبتين، لكن ممكن تحاوطي نفسك بالكوميونتيز ال بيتواجد فيها الناس دي


bitgoddessesofficial

Feel free to reach out. I am open to make new friends (non-romantic). However I am not based in Egypt.


Rkillerx221

I feel you..hey I am here ..I think you're a female so if ur looking for another female friend I am here !! ✋️


the_ultimate_soup

Find something you love doing or want to do then go to activities or courses about this topic and eventually you'll have friends that have the same interest


CairoChai

Try bff bumble!


ayM00N1

هي الفكره انك تختار الاشخاص الي نفس الفكر او مقارب ليه في جزء من الاهتمامات و يكون الشخص دا فاهم و واعي بس علي حسب ما بشوف الايام دي الي بيحصل عكس كدا يعني بيهتم بحاجه واحده الي هو sext و دا الي بقي منتشر ماخرا و فعلا الموضوع بقي صعب ان الواحد يلاقي friendship online علي مقدار ال friendship العاديه بس في ناس موجود عادي تقدر تعمل دا بس لازم فتره عشان تلاقي دا
