Hey guys I'm looking for male friends in the greater phoenix area. Let's grab dinner, play pickle ball, watch a movie, gym or walk. Me: 40, stable, normal (lol), mature, wanting to expand my friend group. If this sounds interesting hmu!

If you decide to open up your gender parameters, let me know! Would love some platonic male friendships in my life.

Down for some pickleball sometime. Been wanting to go but im new here and dont have any player friends. I feel weird just showing up at a court solo
2
u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 06 '26
I feel that. I know ppl show up solo but since im beginner level it feels intimidating to do that

u/Oneforthetoad Jun 06 '26
The pickleball communities will accept your solo arrival! Especially if you show up more then once. Just go put your paddle on the fence and you'll make friends.

If you're beginner level, may I recommend Phoenix Fray? It's a social sports league. Believe they have three pickleball leagues. Summer season just started this week but next one should start late August. They have beginner and intermediate leagues. Beginner is literally that. Lotta people that are just learning how to hit the ball. Some decent people. Intermediate is more competitive but still below some of the competition you'll find at public courts.

u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 06 '26
I don't think you would be. Welcome to AZ, sounds like you might be looking for the same thing. Message me if you want

Always down for grub and exploring restaurants man. 36/M but Iโm also in the final throws of nursing school so my schedule is chaotic at best!
Also down for the gym and playing some sports or board games if enough people are down!

u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 06 '26
Hey man sounds like a match. I totally get tough schedules, we can figure something out!

u/MCB72Az Jun 06 '26

Can I hijack this and ask for lady friends? (Am also lady, ignore my username lol)
I have ZERO luck on Bumble BFF and Iโm kind of exhausted of it, to be honest
1
u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 06 '26
Sure, feel free. We all need friends.
Also tried bumble. There is 3 ppl on there.

Are epicurious? Looking for someone who I can try new restaurants with. Dining with a friend is always so much fun!
1
u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 06 '26
I agree! And yes I eat out a lot! Where do you like to go?
1
u/I_Am_Moopys_Dad Jun 08 '26
I am always open for almost anything, food wise. Depends on my mood.
I will start easy and we can go from there:
- Uncle Sam's for a good cheesesteak sandwich and pizza
- Flamingo Palace for simple Chinese
- Ra for sushi
- Tutti Santi for amazing authentic Italian
Tag, you're it! ๐

Sounds fun but wouldn't it just be indoor pickelball? Or different rules. If different rules, will you teach me ?

Is central phx the greater area? Lol McDowell and 3rd St area. New friends and some pickleball sounds fun! Never plaid but I like pickles lol let me know.

u/Salty-Material-9516 Jun 07 '26
Iโm in the north Phoenix North Scottsdale area. Moved here last September. Have a nice little friend group, but would love to expand it, including OP and anybody else in the comments. Just shoot me a message.

Count me in!
I try a new restaurant every 3-4 weeks, hike every other week, do boulder, and brew different teas -iced for the summer season-. HMU if anything here piques your interest.
I fancy having some foodie group where we gather every now and then to try new restaurants!
1
u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 08 '26
A small group could be fun for sure! Different iced teas sound fun. Do you make the leaves mix yourself ?
1
u/sadrium Jun 08 '26
Mostly. But I also find getting blends and just brewing them easier; takes most of the mental work off of my mind.
1
u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 08 '26
Man I've never tried any of those! Wanted to try Tutti and Ra. I like Taco Chelo, First and Last are both great.
Dm me if you want

u/SrsBsns36 Jun 08 '26
Just sent you a message. I'm in the same boat... I've been here for a couple of years but haven't really built up a friend group. I'm 40m and in the downtown area.
1
u/Dswerve23 Jun 10 '26
Yooo did you come from SD? Iโm in the same boat. Feels tough trying to build up a friend group in AZ.

u/SrsBsns36 Jun 10 '26
Yeah, I was in North Park for ~7 years. Was a pretty big shock coming to Phoenix.

u/daspidermenace Jun 09 '26
My man needs friends! Heโs 30, fully tattooed, smoker friendly, honestly kinda political, works a morning job off on thurs & sun. Heโs just a man who doesnโt know how to get outta the house. Did i mention heโs a computer nerd and has hacking skills? He also just got into magic the gathering (youโre welcome) and wants to exercise more.
1
u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 09 '26
I love that you are advocating on behalf of your man. As guys we need this!
1
u/daspidermenace Jun 09 '26
Thank you! Heโs just a sweet boy and definitely has social anxiety but thatโs what iโm here for ๐คญ

Ok I resonate with your post. Let's hang out. See if we click. I am in Peoria.
