Every day, numerous Gofrendly members come together. We truly relish hearing their tales about how they’ve connected with new like-minded friends, whether they share dreams of global adventures or, like Matilda, who was new in town. Let’s delve into Matilda’s story of how she met Noelle.
Matilda’s Story
I had just relocated to Malmö when I stumbled upon Gofrendly during one of my online searches. I was yearning for close friends to hang out with and was eager to meet new, engaging friends who shared my interests.
I distinctly remember my first Gofrendly rendezvous; I was quite apprehensive! We decided to meet for a drink, and to my delight, everything went swimmingly. We met up a couple more times, but it didn’t seem to click for either of us. It took a few months, but that’s when I crossed paths with Noelle. She had only joined the app the day before, and I happened to be her inaugural meeting. Our connection was instantaneous!
The Italian Getaway
About three months into our friendship, we spontaneously decided to embark on a journey together. It was Noelle’s idea to visit Italy since she typically vacationed there every year, and she graciously invited me to join her. Prior to our departure, we had conversations about our habits and potential areas of conflict. The most significant challenge of traveling with a relatively new acquaintance is not knowing each other’s idiosyncrasies. Hence, our top tip is to discuss your concerns openly and plan your itinerary together. Embrace the idea that you’re embarking on a delightful journey of discovery, where everything is fresh and exhilarating!
We’ve shared countless incredible moments and are already contemplating our next adventure (Amsterdam). One particularly cherished memory is from our inaugural evening in Italy when we stumbled upon a charming bar and engaged in captivating conversations. It was an emotionally charged moment when we both opened up. From that point forward, I felt entirely relaxed with my friend Noelle.
Finding your soul mate
I’m profoundly grateful to have met her; without Gofrendly, it might not have been possible. Cliché as it may sound, I believe in giving new friendships a chance, as you truly can find a soul mate. It’s also a fantastic way to meet friends with whom you can create memorable experiences and enhance your life. My advice is to be proactive in arranging a meeting fairly promptly. Don’t hesitate to initiate contact and propose a meeting; it’s unquestionably worthwhile!
Suggest a simple coffee date or a casual burger outing; it doesn’t need to be extravagant. Then, strive to meet more frequently to foster a deeper connection and allow the friendship to flourish.
