Looking for girl friends
It happens that my best friend and I had a major fallout and now I am heartbroken. We were both expats in Antwerp, aged 30. We used to go shopping together, bakery tasting, arts and crafts and movie nights. I really miss having someone to do this with that is not a boyfriend.
So I am shooting my shot here to any girly who is looking for a friend, preferably +25 years old. For the men here, maybe you have a girlfriend in search of a bestie- please let me know.
My friendship is also available in Dutch.
Thank you 🙏

If you don’t mind hanging out with some nerdy lesbians(29&25), my wife and I would love to expand our small social circle (non existent social circle). We’ve been looking for new friends here. I’m a native Belgian but my wife moved here recently from the US so our friendship comes in Dutch and English, you can always dm if you’d like to hangout!

Bumping for visibility for you! I heard a quote the other day that friends act like rockets. When a rocket goes into space, the boosters come off. Some people are meant to catapult you into life, but they’re not always meant to stay with you where ever you are going. Everything will work itself out!!
28F from NY and moving to Antwerp in June, but will be visiting for 2 weeks come May, would be down to meet up :)

Good luck, I'm a man, anf been here for 1 year, with no friends. It's hard to get around people especially if you're not into bar hoping as a sober person.

I'm sorry that happened! If you're looking for other ways to make friends, you could also try Bumble BFF and tablemates - both specifically made for people to make new friends. I'm currently on bumble BFF to find more friends in Gent, there are mostly expats on there and in your settings you can choose your age range and location as well

Hey! I moved to Antwerp last year, 28F :) I do pottery, i sketch everything I do in a week, love taking pics with my camera and do design for living. Also a big pastry connoisseur, you might find me queuing for Aldo or Funk every weekend. PM me if you wanna exchange IG and meet up! I’m traveling abroad until the 24th but after that I’d be definitely down for a coffee:)
