There are always plenty of ads in here seeking cybersex, phone sex, NSA hookups, one-night stands, and the rare long-term relationship.

What there aren’t many of is adverts by people looking for friends. Oh, yes, there are plenty, but they get buried by the understandably more copious requests for sexual favors. So...

Here’s a directory for friends to post in. Or people looking for friends, as it were. If it catches on, I think this could be a valuable tool to Literotica—a place where people looking for something more platonic can find what they’re looking for.

Pretty straightforward, but here are some basic guidelines to help you out:

1. List your sex, age (at least give us a decade or so to go on), and at least five basic interests. The more, the better—who knows what you’ll connect on?

2. Be honest. Don’t say you’re twenty if you’re thirty, don’t give a physical description if giving one means you’ll lie, and don’t say you play rugby if you spend your days on the sofa. Common sense, people. And decency.

3. No knocking people and no flame wars. It’s counterproductive and it makes you look like a jerk.

4. If you post on here, that means it’s okay for others to PM you, if they’re not interested in posting themselves. If you change your mind, edit your post so we know not to message you.

So enjoy!

_______________________________

Other things to consider listing in your post:
  • profession or area of expertise
  • geographic region
  • indication if you want friendship to develop into something else
  • indication if you’re more interested in male or female friends
  • indication if you’re interested only in online or r/l get-togethers
  • characteristics you appreciate in a friend

Age: 19
Sex: Female
Talking to me?: ...Priceless

*laughs* I couldn't help myself. I'm an Oklahoman girl, and no I don't have an accent. Sorry to disappoint. I'm here to hopefully find some good friends, both male and female because lets face it, some things you just cant (or at least shouldn't if you ask me) discuss with guys. Now I am looking for someone hopefullying within a 10 year age range to talk to, not to say I'm necesarily excluding anyone.

Ok now for Interests (if you're still reading):

* Wicca - no I don't practice (yet) I just like reading about it.
* Writing Poetry - I write as an outlet
* Charmed - I'm obsessed, deal with it
* My favorite tv shows are (Charmed), Supernatural, Burn Notice, Army Wives, Psych, and I was very into Moonlight before it was cancelled.
* And now I'm obsessed with a book I bought sunday "Twilight"... I'm hooked.

If you're noticing a pattern here, congrats! *laughs*

Anyway message me if you're interested. Take care!
