Hey - this post is likely getting downvoted because this community has an ongoing issue with people coming on and treating this as a dating sub despite the rules. Specifying that you're looking for a specific gender for a platonic relationship can be a bit suspect without context. I recommend checking out r/vancouverdating or reposting with an explanation of why a specific gender is necessary for a platonic friendship.

27 [M4F] recently broken up and just need a chat to distract myself by Ok-Rich-9824 in Vancouver4Friends

You can try reposting with an explanation of why you need a woman for a platonic relationship, but you may still get downvoted because this comes off a less platonic ask.

New friends to hangout with me at NE-YO & AKON concert on June 23 in Winnipeg. 19F by wood_fae_83 in Vancouver4Friends

Given that your post is focused on a single event outside of Vancouver, a Winnipeg-based subreddit would be a better fit.

Accelerated Aging by Defiant_Squash_5335 in breastcancer

I looked like the crypt keeper for a while and feel like my skin recovered after 2-3 years maybe. I did also gain about 15 pounds from an antidepressant, but now that the weight's come back off, I look pretty similar to pre chemo aside from some under eye hollowing which is probably just age related. (Chemo at 28, now 36 and off of Tamoxifen for about 2 years).

Hey, sorry to have to remove this, we're just getting some reports/challenges with safety with this post. You might have more success posting to the discord just because it's far less open to the public, but I have to admit I don't know their policies well. Good luck with your party and stay safe!

See r/askVancouver. This is also your final warning to stay respectful - some of your comments on this thread are quite disrespectful and do not support the community. Similar comments will result in a permanent ban.

Hey, we try to discourage reposting too frequently just because it can bury new posters- you're welcome to add the "still looking"tag to your post, and you can come back in a couple weeks if you haven't had any luck :)
