Why people try My Next Friend

Meeting new people as an adult isn’t easy. You don’t want to waste time, feel awkward, or meet people you don’t really like.

That’s why this works: you meet a few people from your city — online, for 45 minutes.

It’s an easy way to see who you get along with before meeting face to face. If it goes well, grab a coffee or go for a walk. If not, no problem.

Low effort. High potential.

How it works (it's super simple)

1

Complete the form

Click “Save my spot” and answer a few quick questions — like where you live, your age, and what you enjoy talking about.
Takes 2–3 minutes. This helps us find the right group for you.

2

Get matched

Once we have enough people, we’ll match you with 3–5 others near you — close in age, with similar interests and friendship goals. You’ll receive an email with all the details as soon as your group is ready.

3

Meet your group

Once your group is ready, you’ll get a personal invite to a 45-minute video call, happening on a Thursday at 7PM (your local time). We’ll guide the conversation with a few light questions.No pressure. No prep. Just be yourself.

4

Take it offline

After the call, you’ll receive an email where you can say who you’d like to talk to again. If it’s mutual, we’ll connect you. Grab a coffee, go for a walk —or just keep chatting online. Your connection. Your pace.

Who it's for

You don’t have to be lonely to want more friends.
Maybe you just want new people in your life — the kind who feel like sunshine, not scrolls.

My Next Friend is for you if you're looking for people you can actually talk to — about real things, not just small talk.

  • “I’d love to meet someone who’s also into business or creative work.”
  • “I wish I had a friend who gets what it’s like to raise kids right now.”
  • “I’d show up every week if it meant having someone to share gym goals or life stuff with.”
  • “I want to meet people I can grow with, laugh with, learn from.”
  • “My people are far away — or busy — or we’ve just drifted.”

We’re here to introduce you — as people, not profiles.
The best people aren’t that far. You just haven’t met them yet.

It all begins with saying hi.
