Once all this mess with covid is over, are there any people, regardless of sex, orientation etc, who are interested in just hanging out and being friends.
I hate saying this but I have none. I dont mean no genuine friends but actually mean none at all. Looking for people nearby who may be the same and looking for friendship, companionship and just someone to talk to and hang out with (when we are finally allowed).
Not looking for hook ups with this. Just clean fun   |

"Come on Glasgow Fabbers, let's see this gorgeous lady right. We've all had a tough year start the next with a smile and new friend in your life 
Thank you"
There are many daytime socials ie coffee meets arranged but with covid they can't happen just now but keep your eyes on the forums for once the restrictions are lifted .
Also many drinks socials in the evenings too .
I'm sure other singletons will take you up on your offer of friendships   |

I’m sure if you post when we are allowed to mix again people will be keen to meet up socially.
Just find a time that suits you and make a post about meeting for cake and coffee (or whatever) with a date and time and I’m sure you will get a good response. I’m always up for meeting people socially so will watch out for your post xx |

Thanks. I'll really look into this once restrictions are lifted. Was just curious if there was an interest. If others were in the same situation perhaps. |

There will be and I think after covid there will be more than usual as we won’t all go back to normal working environments so where before work maybe hid any loneliness, working from home doesn’t
I’m even happy with a walk in a park for a blether when restrictions are eased a bit so it doesn’t need to be when restrictions are gone completely - picnic in the park with winter woollies on |

I know the feeling, working from home and locked down, you feel isolated. Even when the bars were open, there was loneliness in a crowd. You knew the people there, but would not be classed as proper friends. Not helped by me traveling a lot. |

Hope u find what you seek, I am perplexed by your status though. ? Your saying there you don't want new chats unless its through forum games so how can you expect people to meet when you don't want to chat to new people.
I'm sure its just an oversight on your part. |

Good friends are really hard to come by. Due to social networking and obviously this pandemic, real friendships tend just to be digital. Its not the same as it used to be and as much as the internet has been a lifeline through this horrible year, I have always disliked it. Instead I have tried to read books and educate myself better in which has gave me a better outlook on things and an outlet to the boredom. I tend to go out a lot walking, not only is it good for your health, but it is really good for your mind as well as it offers a chance to bump into new people and have a little idle chat. I know we are all on this site for a reason but there is so much more to life than just sex. The ability to care for someone, chat to someone, enjoy someone's company, appreciate someone and listen to their story. That means more to me than a quickie up the woods, or meaningless sex. Fun at the time but what does it really achieve?
Ah well seems im a philosopher now  |

Very deep but also very true and agree with all of it.

I would really like to support and know you. I’m a lot older but can talk about any subject. Also know how to behave lol.
I own a dog which keeps me going through this brutal time along with a couple of mates and family but, always willing to walk the dog and have a chin wag and maybe a cuppa somewhere. |

Chat with me anytime it is usually Mr on though, I don't have a hidden agenda and happy to message away with someone that feels isolated
I reached out the other night to a regular female on this site that I have seen many times at CJs that seemed to be going through a tough time going by her recent status but sadly she blanked me probably assuming I had another motive, those that genuinely know me will know I didn't but hey ho I hope she is okay and I hope you are to Xx |

Once these latest restrictions ease there is no reason why, OP, you could not arrange a socially distanced social with another person, be it a walk in the park, shopping trip or a coffee when we get the chance.
Even now there are the cyber zoom/whats app/ kik options for a blether.
Plenty of individuals in similar situations on FAB who also need that support network.
I suppose the real problem is that you are asking for this on a swinging site which has socials yes, but alot of that is still driven by a sexual element.
I would perhaps be inclined to look to groups of interests or hobbies on other social media platforms rather than here.
It de-sexualises the prospective friendships completely and bases it around personal interests.

Clicked on the profile which said in the update - not looking for new chats. Seems a little odd to then post a looking for friends thread. Feels a little mixed message wise.

Thank you so much for all the support. Sounds bad but I'm glad I'm not the only one? If you know what I mean. We can all arrange something when covid allows and hopefully get some new friendships blossoming for all of us.
And for those reaching out with help and support. I really appreciate it. The world needs more people like you all.
Chats for friendship always welcome. I meant to update earlier when someone pointed it out but got sidetracked |

As we move into 2021 Technology allows us to be so much more connected to each other. Which can be a wonderful device and also a hinderance at the same time. What happens in our own personal life is treasured and in the same time be very lonely.
So what I’m saying is if you can’t make that phone call you really feel is over due. Send a gif, emoji, forward a funny texted or pic/video. Because life can be shite for everyone during these times, also it can be just as equally for others in your circle.
This connection can make the difference to the person in a big way. A smile on their face, even if you don’t get to see it, is gold. The fact that you placed that smile and lifted the spirit of that person in your circle is more than you well ever know.
Yes life is different, life is a struggle . So say hello not excepting a reply. But that might just encourage a smile to do a connection that was missing in life. To which will make them pass that smile on to you or someone else. Be strong and be loving to each and all around you. ?? |

By saying not looking for chats it will hopefully stop a lot of the messages she doesn’t want. People who have read this thread know she is looking for friendly chats with no sexual element so can still message and could put friends or forum or something similar in the title so nymph is aware they have read the forum.
It’s not rocket science |

Thx for clarification Cadbury.
However Fab itself has confirmed that only about 3 % of members use the forums so saying you want to make new contacts then eliminating 97 % of users from potential new friendships still makes no sense to me . Saying that I'm not a rocket scientist and you are obviously. |

The lockdown has put me in the position of working as I’m classed as essential and caring for someone who has to shield themselves, I don’t get a chance to do anything or meet anyone, sometimes it’s nice to just chill and cuddle someone without it being sexual

Hey up. Don’t like someone struggling. More than happy to meet up outside for a walk and get my steps up. We can chat about what’s happening around us and more than happy to give you an ear to vent. Takes my mind of work and happy to do it hail, rain or shine.  , PM as required. |

Course I would, it’s a caring sharing world and if someone needs help, they need help. I know single guys get a bad rep on here, however all guys are different and some do care for peoples well being.
If I can pass on experience or help in my day, I’m a happier person for it. Sorry to be a nice guy on fab !

"try meetup, its an app for social groups, i used it when i moved city for work last year to make new friends "
Was reading this and was just about to suggest the same thing.
There are quite a few coffee groups, there’s Glasgow Sceptics, which is sometimes quite interesting. There are book clubs, yoga, etc all to get you out of the four walled prison.
But in current times.... be patient, one day this will end.
Additionally, once the pubs reopen properly there’s also a pub quiz on a Tuesday night - we have a fab team in Paisley captained by Falcon on here - can see it being popular when it returns - btw it’s a social event. |

I think, once we are allowed of course, I will arrange a social or a meet up for all to join if they wish. This thread has shown me there are a lot of helpful people, and a lot of lonely people.
If we all help one another, I think a few good friendships could bloom.
Might sound cheesy or corny, but I'll take that. Just having a few private messages and regular conversations has made the world of a difference to me. But I don't want anyone left out.
I will try to arrange a coffee, or a walk in the park, or a pub meet or something once we are allowed. |
