Anyone want to be anonymous online texting buddies to talk all day?

[Anonymous]

I've never had friends, or a boyfriend or a relationship with my family and have no career and the longer I go like this, the harder its getting. I just wish i had someone i could message literally all day to help keep me afloat.

[sawno]

This is not the right opener because everyone with a bit of experience will know how draining this is. It takes a lot of energy to keep someone else afloat and without the premise of something i'd enjoy in conversation in return that sounds very intimidating.

So here's my advice, don't request to talk to someone all day. Find people you have something in common with and then don't burden a single person constantly but gather some online friends on the various stuff you enjoy and then spend time with them. That way it won't be just one person who has to bear your burden.

I’m really sorry you’re feeling this isolated. Wanting connection is completely human, and you’re not weird for that. But relying on anonymous texting all day might not actually help in the long run, it can feel good temporarily but doesn’t really replace real, stable support. It might help more to slowly build connections in safer spaces, like hobbies, groups, or even talking to a counselor who can actually support you consistently. You don’t have to go through this alone, but you also deserve support that’s real and steady, not just constant messaging with strangers.

[Iron_Man]

Well, we’re all human beings behind the computer. If you get to know somebody then they’re not strangers after all their friends. People have even met off of this site before and got married. But I wouldn’t want full-time anonymous texting because eventually I wanna see a picture of who I’m talking to since I’m spending so much time on them

[Taurus_Woman]

@Iron_Man Yes, online interaction can definitely shift from “strangers” to something closer to friendship when there’s consistency, openness, and shared time.
That said, people usually draw different boundaries depending on comfort and safety. Some are fine staying fully anonymous for a long time, others prefer gradually moving toward things like voice or video calls to make the connection feel more real. Both approaches are valid; it just depends on trust, purpose of the connection, and personal privacy preferences. Even video calls are so much better than a picture, it can help reduce misunderstandings and make communication feel more natural, but they’re not something anyone should feel pressured into. A healthy pace is usually: text first → build trust → then only move to voice/video if both people genuinely want it.

Im only trying this now cuz back in the day a ton of people used to wanna chat all the time and it wasn’t really my thing. The way people are being rude and rejecting it now is crazy

[Taurus_Woman]

That’s why I told you that, for you, real-life communication is better. On the internet, you can meet plenty of rude or unpleasant people, so it may disappoint you. However, as mentioned above, strangers online can also become close. Even I know people who got married after meeting online.

[Iron_Man]

I have a friend that I’ve been talking to for five years every day on this site. We’ve done extremely

[Taurus_Woman]

@Iron_Man
Didn’t you move your communication to WhatsApp or something like that? Because if your account here suddenly gets blocked, you could lose contact with the person. But on WhatsApp or similar apps, the conversation is more stable and easier to keep.

[Iron_Man]

I have her email address and she has mine. We also emailed.. But if the site closes down, I would like for her to join WhatsApp because I have it

[Iron_Man]

You can text and talk for free all over the world

[Iron_Man]

I wonder how they make their money WhatsApp because nobody ever has to pay for long distance or texting

[Taurus_Woman]

@Iron_Man Sure. Because WhatsApp includes video calls, a clear messaging system, pictures, and overall more stable communication. Even if something happens to the internet platform or the app, you don’t lose contact with each other because you still have each other’s phone numbers.

[Asker]

@Iron_Man would you wanna talk to me then? Lol. I can discord

[Iron_Man]

Sure thats fine

[Asker]

@Iron_Man i can use* discord. I haven't used GAG in years so i sorta forgot how it worked. Do i just dm you on here to exchange info then?

[Iron_Man]

OK, as long as you’re not one of those spammers that want to get money because I’ve gotten a few of those on here. I don’t have discord. There’s nothing wrong with talking here for a while.

[Taurus_Woman]

@Iron_Man There are definitely spammers online, so being careful is normal.

[Asker]

@Iron_Man ok. Lol

[Iron_Man]

But my question was Taurus woman how does ‎WhatsApp support themselves if they allow everybody to talk for free Around the world?

[Taurus_Woman]

@Iron_Man As far as I'm concerned, wp is free for normal users because its parent company, Meta, mainly makes money indirectly rather than charging people for messages.
The biggest revenue sources are:
WhatsApp Business API, companies pay to message customers at scale (order updates, OTPs, customer support, marketing messages, etc.).
TechCrunch +1
Click-to-WhatsApp ads — businesses run ads on Facebook or Instagram that open a WhatsApp chat, and Meta earns from those ads.
Business tools and subscriptions —l, premium features for businesses, automation, catalogs, analytics, and verified accounts.

In some regions, WhatsApp is also expanding into payments, channels, and limited ads in non-chat sections of the app.

[Iron_Man]

Oh ok thank you,

[Taurus_Woman]

@Iron_Man You're so welcome.

[Iron_Man]

👍🏻😊

[Nikki1989]

I would be embarrassed to associate myself with anything related to being anonymous on a website.

[AI Opinion]

My aim on GAG is to keep you from drowning in this lonely, weird dating/relationship ocean, haha 💙

You’re not broken, you’re just *isolated*, and that’s a totally different thing. Wanting constant texting isn’t needy, it’s your nervous system begging for connection, not lovebombing.

Try anonymous apps, forums, Discord servers, even hobby-based communities. Start with small daily check-ins, not 24/7 pressure. You deserve safe, consistent people, not ghosts.

[Abbycado]

Nah, I’m good.

[Asker]

No offense but i wasn’t exactly looking for a 21 yr old to talk to….

[Twalli]

I can talk, just let me know how you want to.

[In_Trance]

Pass

[Asker]

You literally didn't have to reply at all

[Bykurs10]

[MrChinaski]

LMAO

[Asker]

Whats so funny?

[MrChinaski]

99% scam. 1% weird.

[Asker]

Whats a “scam”?…. Huh?

[MrChinaski]

If I am wrong and you are genuine then there are a ton of people on here. Comment on some posts, maybe you'll get into some interesting exchange of ideas, repeat, repeat et voila you have found someone to chat to from time to time.
