Struggling to make friends over the internet 😅

So the best way to make friends on here is to talk with folks on Q&A and respond to stuff regularly. You'll get a rapport with someone and can take it to PMs and develop a better relationship that way.

The problem is there's like... a few dozen guys on here who will check for women who are online, and immediately start sexually harassing them. Loads of completely decent dudes on here, but the shitty ones are noisy and will come to you first.

Genuinely, just don't accept PMs from men on here you haven't had some time to get to know in public first.

It fucking sucks, I wish it was different, but its just a hazard of social media at this point.

I recommend going into your message settings and filtering out all messages from people who aren’t on your friends list, and then just stick to making and answering posts. I think you’re more likely to make friends that way

Thanks for all the tips lovliesss ❤️️

I may not seem thankful, but I am! My experience on this site has been mostly positive x

I find i make good connections but after a few chats they dont want to talk anymore. Its the way of this site.

Then you need to change your strategy. Stop making posts to attract unwanted dms. Without posts not many know you exist. Instead start picking people from other posts, check their profile, visit their whiteboard and check how they reply others and you DM them. This way you can convert your time spent here as quality time.

Hello there human 🐰

Get rid of the NSFW forum, change your profile picture because your "assets" are the #1 thing that will attract those unwanted DMs and you should be fine. Guys (and girls too) just check each profile until they find a potential victim for their lewd DMs.

If you stay away from the sexual stuff and forums and remain with more neutral forums, then you are less likely to be hit on by men wanting to know you inside out.

Going go get creeps and pervs, what are you looking for?

First of all, Welcome to the site, there are some pretty amazing friends here. I would like others have recommended that you filter out your messages. It helps cut down on the unwanted messages. Interact within the post here. You will find your friends it takes time but its worth it. x

I'm sorry if you thought my welcome message fitted into either of those categories, @DancerZoey00

Coddle and agree with everybody. That's how it's done. That's why MY friends list is so small.

Until you're 40, don't use an actual female I'm your pfp, some creeps think that's an invitation.

Well I would like to think I can carry a discussion if you ever wish to. Sorry for the bad experiences.

I feel you, it can be hard to make friend here.
My advice? Use the public forums and build from there. It's better to PM with people you know public. Stay away from random message requests as it's usually pervs.

Turning off your green light might also help, too... They can't see when/if you're online.

You need to go out in world and talk to actual people around you.

Well this is probably not the place. This is a rat hive infested with the sick and degenerate of our society. I made a few friends here, but they all disappeared for the most part. Now did they all die horrible deaths or were they ever really real at all? No way to know.

Hey Zoey, message me

It’s ok. It will take time to make friends over the internet. It’s easy to make and loss, but then you will find few real good ones who sticks with you over the time.
Good luck.
