where do i say i want people who dont live in japan? like yeah sure im down to make online friends but im explicitly LOOKING for friends in TOKYO, japan is so fucking lonely, espically being self employed, i hate being alone so much. Im a people person.
You say that people could just meet you in person if they don't believe you. For people to meet you in person they'd have to be in Japan. That's obviously unrealistic for pretty much everyone here so they're back to having to take your word for it.
If you want to find friends in Tokyo, you're not going to find them on a platform where Japanese people living in Tokyo can probably be counted on one hand. What you will find is people fawning over you.
I tried dating apps, spent hundereds of dollars on them found no one i thought maybe people living in tokyo would be on here, there are a lot of foreigners. For online friends I would show them around my house on call when I trust them. And why should it matter to people im friends with how big my house is, I want genuine friends who likeme for my personality.
It doesn't matter. You brought it up.
