Do you ever wish you had someone in your life that you can have deep meaningful conversations with?

i wish people were more mature.
I'm very lucky to have an amazing guy friend (my best friend) who is the perfect person to do this with. We've known since Kindergarten and basically grew up together. There was a time in our teens where we had a lot of sleepovers at each other's place and basically just talked and talked and talked until the sun came up. I remember we would get up at noon and feel really tired because we had only slept 5 hours or so. But the experience was still great. Later, we had a phase where we went on a lot of night walks during warm summer nights. We've got quite a lot of nature (forests, fields and grapevines) around here, so it's a great place to go for walks. During those 3-4 hour walks, we would also talk and talk like crazy. I think we never had a situation where we didn't know what to talk about. These days my friend and I have less time for each other (sadly) but when we get the chance, we still enjoy the time together. The relationship feels very intimate, although neither of us is gay. I think we're just both very inquisitive persons who are thirsty for knowledge and love asking big questions.
I also have a wonderful fiancée with whom I can sometimes have great discussions. Unfortunately however, she's a rather quiet person and so the conversations usually die down again after an hour. It's not like with my guy friend where we just go on forever.

You are more likely to find interesting and expansive conversation if you leave sex off the agenda altogether. Sex tends to focus the conversation into a narrow channel. It's a good idea if you start out with conversations about anything and everything but exclude sex.
I definitely do wish for that, and I had that, but... when you date the people who are that for you and the relationship doesn't work out, you will usually lose them and they leave your life.
Honestly, when I find people who say they want to have meaningful conversations--or, as I call them, "intellectual" conversations--the problem comes when you disagree with each other. More than being unable to have meaningful conversations nowadays is being unable to handle differing points of views. Everyone nowadays seems to have a short fuse or to not know how to get over themselves, or they don't know how to talk about ideas without thinking different ideas and people who have them are stupid.
I often see people refer to this phenomenon as "people get offended by everything" nowadays, and usually people who do this are people who just want to get away with saying offensive things and hating different types of people. So, that's not at all what I mean. I mean, I want to have an intellectual conversation with someone--whether in person or online--read or listen to someone give a viewpoint on some topic or issue, I disagree with it and explain my viewpoint, and they not go apeschitt because they feel personally attacked/judged or get offended that I think what I do and stop responding to me. THIS is what I can't find.

dating apps are the wrong place for deep conversations... I like talking about serious topics, (many girls do) but not while i'm trying to flirt lol

I'm genuinely shocked with the responses of people; more specifically, people who are saying very few or people if anybody at all are capable of this type of conversation.
EVERYBODY is able to show maturity, and have a legitimate intelligent conversation, and show an open connection with another human being. Most people just need to find a person they are comfortable talking with, which involves building a relationship with someone.
Social media only shows a fraction of a person's personality, usually falsely at that. So that's really not a great place for a deep conversation, it's only a starting point to meeting someone. a relationship needs to be built beyond social media, and then maybe you will have a connection via conversation.
I have faith in humanity yet, and I think we are all still just regular people underneath the hard shell of false realities we've created for ourselves. The hard part is getting to know one another beyond that. - 839 opinions shared on Other topic.
I found some people who like deep conversations like that. There are more people like that then u think. The secret is to get them to open up and if they aren't stupid or just some "average person" then u can have deep and interesting conversations with them.

I already have that.. She is my girlfriend.. Hope she becomes my wife..

O yes it seems like everyone just talks about damb tv. Like reality is just so boring and they don't have any other hobbies besides it.
-
I did have that someone. She got angry at me not wanting to talk about stuff like normal day life instead of deep stuff and left. It hurts
-
Well I used to wish I had someone like that.
Now I do have someone who I can talk to about anything.. only thing is that this person is far away 😞
I am sure you'll find someone like that too 😇😊 -
Literally all the time, people now days are professionals at small talk, don't know how to hold a conversation, are very repetitive, & suck generally at communicating properly. Where's the people who are the exact opposite of this?
-
I have a lot of friends for that kind of conversations, and I used to really enjoy them in the past. Now it's so hard to even honestly reply to "what's up?", and I avoid talking as much as I can.

You can start by searching online forums. Once you get things going maybe meet in person. You never know who you might find.

yes I wish the same mate but the people these days 😢

A lot of my friends are that way, and I'm glad that they are.

Those are more the sort of conversations you have with guy friends. Women never seem interested in talking about that sort of stuff from my experience

I actually have one friend, the rest just wanna talk about party, hook up, getting laid. You know, those that could have fun with you but runs away when you need their help.
