Find people to hang out with near you
Sometimes you do not need a big plan, just someone to talk to. If you have caught yourself thinking you have no one to hang out with lately, you are far from alone. GoMate has a Talk & hang out category for exactly that: casual meetups where the point is good conversation rather than a particular activity.
People host easy plans like chai and chat after work, a slow evening walk, or a Sunday sit-down to talk about books, careers or life. You can find someone to hang out with nearby, request to join, and chat with the group once the host approves you. Small, simple and free of pressure.

Questions, answered
Something else on your mind? Write to us.
Is this a dating app?
No. GoMate is for friendship and activities. Plans are about doing something together, even if that something is just a conversation over coffee. Anyone who makes you uncomfortable can be reported or blocked from their profile.
I am an introvert. Will this feel awkward?
Small plans help. Many hosts keep Talk & hang out plans to three or four people, and you can chat in the group before meeting. You can also host your own quiet plan and approve only the people you feel comfortable with.
How do I start a conversation in the group chat?
Keep it simple: say hello, share what drew you to the plan and confirm the time. Hosts usually get things going. By the time you meet, you will already know a few names and something about each person.
Step out, not alone.
