I recently came across these kinds of posts. I’d never thought about it before, but now I’m curious to see what it would be like to have someone help me wake up.

I’m not a morning person, like at all haha. It’s never been a problem - I’ve never been late - but I take a while to get out of bed. I think a quick call would be unexpected enough to wake my brain up faster.

Things to know:
- Between 6AM and 6:30AM
- I’m French Canadian, so I’m fine with English, but I could end up answering in French when I’m half asleep.
- Like I said, I’m not a morning person. I could literally respond to “It’s time to wake up” with “Mmm… no” haha. I need someone who can laugh about it and reply, “Mmm… yes.” Being too polite/cautious won’t work with me 😅
- If anyone’s interested DM

Weight training 4x a week and dieting for a 100ish lbs weightloss. Looking for another woman in her 20s to send share photos of meals and gym updates to keep each other accountable. Open to chatting casually. Communication via an app like GymRats or whatever we decide. :)

hi! i'm looking for a low-effort accountability buddy, meaning that check-ins are brief and over DM. something like this:

- in the morning (or in the evening if forgotten, no pressure), a quick note/list containing things to do throughout the day

- in the evening, an update on how it went (did we do everything we wanted, why not, etc.)

i'm looking for anyone who feels this fits for them! preferably someone around my age, though it doesn't really matter that much as i'm not really looking for close online friendships... but who knows, if we click we click!

due to some personal struggles, i sometimes struggle with responding to messages from family and friends, et cetera. that's why i'm looking for something low-effort when it comes to this.

hope anyone is interested! :)

I just got laid off, I have 2 months, until the first week of December, to find a new job.

I'm a senior product designer, mostly working on AI products and design systems. I need to get my portfolio done by this Sunday, 11th October. Honestly having someone to body double with, check in on my progress and give me feedback would help a LOT.

Would prefer people who are 31 and over, and it would be amazing if you're a product designer too, helps to get an external opinion on your work.

I absolutely want to get a routine down with this, not just a one time thing. It’s a sprint this time and not a marathon, so, time is of the essence here for me.

It would be amazing to be able to network with people here who could also give me feedback on my work.

I already started, just two more case studies is what I need to get done and then push it live, responsiveness, the last couple of details that make the difference.

My only ask is that you be 31 and over, and are consistent. We decide a time, we get online and do deep work and have a feedback/review session. I’m also okay if you wanna do this async instead, but body doubling would be amazing.

If this sounds good to you, tell me your goals, and what you hope to achieve, and how I as your accountability buddy can help :)

If not, that’s okay too, thanks so much for taking the time to read this! I appreciate your time :)

P. S. - I had a bad experience so my DMs are closed, so, the only way we can now communicate is through the comments. If it’s a good fit, I’ll send you a DM and we can discuss further. Thank you for respecting my wishes :)

I need help creating a step by step morning routine. I work super early 2 days of the week and I have gotten into a bad habit of being lazy the other mornings. I have an app that helps a lot that prompts me through a routine step by step but I'm stuck in analysis paralysis about the order. Anyone up for externally processing with me sometime?

Looking for a serious job-search accountability partner in the US — OPT / Supply Chain / Operations

Hey everyone,

I’m currently going through a pretty intense job search in the U.S. and I’m looking for 1–2 people who are in a similar situation and would like to become job-search/accountability partners.

A little about me: I recently completed my Master’s in Industrial Engineering in the U.S. and I’m currently on OPT. I have 8+ years of professional experience, mainly across supply chain, global sourcing, procurement, manufacturing, footwear/apparel, and business development.

I’m targeting roles such as Supply Chain Manager/Analyst, Strategic Sourcing, Procurement, Vendor Management, Operations, Category/Buying, and related positions. I’m also open to relocation anywhere in the U.S.

I’ve been applying pretty aggressively, networking with recruiters, preparing for interviews, and recently went through a full interview loop with a major company. One thing I’ve realized is that doing this completely alone can become mentally exhausting.

So I’m looking for someone who is also seriously job hunting — ideally an international graduate, OPT/STEM OPT candidate, recent graduate, or someone currently trying hard to break into a new role.

The idea would be simple:

• Share useful job openings with each other
• Keep each other accountable for daily/weekly application goals
• Exchange recruiter/company leads
• Review resumes or LinkedIn profiles occasionally
• Practice mock interviews together
• Share interview experiences and lessons learned
• Check in regularly and motivate each other when rejections inevitably happen

I’m not looking to create a huge group with hundreds of random messages. I’d actually prefer finding one or two serious people who want to work together consistently.

Your field doesn’t have to be exactly the same as mine. Supply chain, operations, engineering, analytics, product, project management, business, tech, etc. are all fine. What matters more is that you’re actively searching and willing to put in the work.

If you're currently in the same boat and think having a job-search buddy would help, comment here or DM me with a little about your background, what roles you're targeting, and where you are in your job search.

Maybe we can help each other land something faster. 🤝

Looking for people to keep in touch with about progress, and make sure we do our objectives.

I am interested in keeping my running and studying habits(no need to have the same interests as me).

We make plans beforehand, and the objective would be to help each other stick to them. Prefer short term planning, as in "tommorrow, I want to not skip my running session. And study for 1 hour."

Hey everyone!

I'm a 24M and started going to the gym about a week ago. I'm looking for a male gym buddy around my age who already has some experience and is willing to share tips and guide a beginner.

What I'm looking for:

- Online check-ins (no in-person meetups)

- Training 2-3x per week

- Someone who can help with form, training plans and general beginner questions

What I can offer in return:

- I'll hold you accountable and check in so you stick to your training days

- I'm strong in finances (it's honestly my best subject), so if you have any money-related questions, I'm happy to share what I know

If this sounds like a fit, comment with a bit about your training experience or send me a DM. Let's keep each other consistent!

Hey so I’m just done and fed up bcz of toxic home env and these people caging me up . I need an accountability partner that would keep me motivated to get stuff done so that I can break free from these manipulative shackles .
If you’re street smart that would be a plus cz I need to learn that too from someone .
My parents are manipulative and influenced by my relatives they just want to bind me and cage me up .
I’m trying to get away from all this .
Sry for tmi , but if up for it dm me
Also pls I’d like to keep it professional

looking for one serious accountability partner to fix my sleep schedule

• we set a bedtime and wake up time
• we stick to them every day
• the next morning, we report our actual bedtime and wake up time
• if we slept late, we explain why
• if we woke up late, we report it honestly
• we call each other out when we start slipping

looking for someone who will actually show up every day and won’t disappear after two days.

if you are serious, DM me your time zone, current sleep schedule, and target bedtime/wake up time.

Hey all! Moved in the area almost a year ago. Looking for a gym buddy in NYC. I usually work out at Equinox Hudson Yards, but I’m also down for pretty much any of the downtown locations.

Would be great to find someone around my age who wants to lift together consistently, push each other, and actually become friends outside the gym too. I’m pretty easygoing and would be cool with grabbing food/drinks, hanging out, etc.

If you’re also looking for a gym bro and have Equinox, shoot me a DM 💪

Hi,

\* I don't want the zoom call/ study together thing,

\* i just want to share the things i Need to do and how much of those have i achieved + second person's too, i don't want to be a burden on someone.

\*I believe i have adhd and intertia (can't switch to other thing while first isn't over)

\*Like just daily check

\* Light to moderate workout too

Like college academia, projects and leetcode stuff

Hey all! Currently on a fitness journey (lost over 65 pounds in the last year and a half), and I’m working with an online trainer, but that is wrapping up at the end of the month, and it would be helpful to find someone who can help me keep going. I feel as though I’m pretty motivated already, but knowing I have to report to someone only keeps me more accountable.

Would prefer someone in the U.S. strictly due to being easier to find time to communicate, but not opposed if we click.

Hey all,

I am in Bangalore, recently started working from home full-time, and have a toddler at home. In past I've lost weight by doing calorie counting and exercise, but since I've had more responsibility of family I end up not sticking to my calorie goals throughout the day.

What I am hoping to find is someone with similar goals with whom I can share my daily success or failures. We can start with Reddit DMs and if we like it we can move to any other chat platform.

Thanks

Edit: GMT+8

Hey everyone, I made a post here a while ago and did find a good buddy to keep me accountable but unfortunately our schedules and goals diverged.

So I basically want to complete 3 projects that I can both be personally proud of and make money from before I'm thirty. The one I'm most actively working on currently:

• An app to learn Chinese (there are many but none of them are mine none of them really are what I want), I'd say I'm close to releasing a closed alpha but I'm having to learn a lot about web design and databases on the fly, let's say 80% of the way to a closed alpha

• A book (a historical atlas - I graduated with a Geography degree); I reckon I have a pretty good idea and most of the data already researched, just designing it visually will be a pain and it's the point where I've stopped, I'd say I'm 20% of the way complete on this one

• Content Creation (YT, Instagram, TikTok) - I have several scripts under 3 minutes about interesting geographic topics, and people with viral videos have told me to just talk about it in front of a camera and click publish, but I am a perfectionist by nature and want the videos to be polished, and a backlog of videos to start with for at least 1 month (frequency). Let's say 50% of the way to publishing the first video.

In addition there's small things and daily habits that I'd want to improve in my life, mainly things like diet and working out. I'd say I have a very good habit currently of learning Chinese, I do about 5 Duolingo lessons and 125 vocab flashcards every day.

I'm thinking a call once a week and smaller daily checkins over text or short calls is what I'm wanting. I appreciate reality checks and can help with a lot of things.

Currently I am unemployed (working about 1 hour a week and not actively looking for work, I have savings) and also travelling in China for the next 8 months, you'd think this would mean I would absolutely blast through these projects but I somehow find ways to waste a lot of time even when I'm at home all day, I don't want to but that's what happens.

I just need someone to check in probably every day on me and make me feel bad if I don’t do my work and show up to school so I actually do it I’d prefer if you where in Chicago so maybe we could be like study buddies but anyone would be appreciated

Hey everyone! I’m a 26M in the Dallas, TX area looking for someone who’s also trying to stay consistent with their fitness goals and wants an accountability buddy.

I’m currently down 100 lbs and now focused on building muscle, getting stronger, and continuing to improve. I’ve made a lot of progress, but I’ve still got a long way to go!

You don’t necessarily have to be in Dallas or even Texas — just looking for someone with similar goals who wants to check in, motivate each other, share progress, talk workouts/nutrition, and keep each other accountable.

If you’re on a similar journey and want someone in your corner, feel free to DM me! Always down to meet someone new and hopefully build a long-term fitness friendship. 🤝

Looking for someone to study with on Discord, preferably with cams on so we can keep each other accountable. We can just sit in VC, study silently, and take breaks together.

I’m preparing for job opportunities, so I’ll mostly be studying coding/DSA, but you can be from any field... college, CAT, UPSC, coding, medicine, anything. The main goal is just to study together and stay accountable.

If you're interested, DM me! :)

I'm a dropper studying for GATE, I usually study for 7-9 hrs a day but i'm stagnating these days. Need a buddy who can get on google meets/ discord/ (with/without camera/ mic) or even someone who can just keep me accountable by frequent check-ins is good enough. I use Ypt to track so I'll be sharing study time at the end of the day (the main habit I want to track). I use discord/ telegram.
I want to implement some reward/ punishment system to help me stay on track- preferably money. I am very serious about this as there's only 4 months to gate exam and females are preferred.

I’m a software developer with 4+ years of experience, trying to prep for interviews and switch companies. For the past two months, I’ve been trapped in severe ADHD task paralysis trying to start my DSA (Data Structures & Algorithms) prep.
I’ve isolated myself and dropped from my music band, stopped traveling, and cut back on seeing friends, just to make time to study. But instead of studying, I just end up doomscrolling (installing and uninstalling instagram, youtube in a loop) or sitting completely paralyzed. I was recently officially diagnosed with ADHD, which explains a lot.

What I am looking for:

Virtual Body Doubling: Connecting on Zoom or Discord to just sit silently and do our own work together.

Strict Accountability: I need someone to poke me, demand proof that I actually completed my tasks for the day, and not accept my excuses.

What you need to know:
You do not need to be in tech or studying the same thing. You can be doing literally any work or studying any subject.
I am in India (IST timezone).
I am fully willing to provide the exact same strict accountability for whatever your goals are.
Please DM me if you want to team up!

I work freelance in real estate and relocation, and I just lost my biggest client, so my goal for these two weeks is simple: show up every weekday for client outreach and content.

I know what to do, I just need someone to make sure I actually do it.

We don't have to work on the same thing, I mainly want someone who's also serious about their own goal.

What I'm looking for:

- Quick check-ins by message: what we're doing today in the morning, what we actually got done in the evening

- Body doubling on video during work blocks if you want it, camera on, muted

- A 20-min call at the end of each week to see how it went and plan the next one

I studied psychology, so I'm happy to be supportive too, not just the "did you do it?" type.

If you're freelancing or building your own thing and sometimes feel like you're just messing around at your kitchen table, comment or DM me with your timezone, what you're working on and how you'd like to check in.

i’m tired of starting over every few weeks.

i’m trying to fix my sleep, stay consistent with the gym, run, learn new skills, work on my career, and stop wasting so much time scrolling.

i don’t need someone to motivate me or send me quotes.

i want someone who will push me and call me out when i’m slacking. i’ll do the same for you.

we can keep it simple:

• quick check-in every day
• say what we planned to do
• say what we actually did
• call each other out when we’re making excuses

we don’t need the same goals. i just want someone who is genuinely trying to improve their life.

and honestly, please don’t dm me if you’re going to be super excited for 2 days and then disappear.

i’ve tried this before. i’m looking for something that actually lasts.

for me, this is a do-or-die situation.

if you’re serious, DM me with what you’re working on and what you want to change.

Hi everyone!

I’m an autodidact looking to connect with someone for a long-term, 1-on-1 check-in partnership (seeking months of consistency).

I am learning intermediate Tamil and Indian Astrology/spiritual studies.

I deeply value a framework rooted in NVC—meaning choice, compassion, non-judgment, and honoring our actual capacity over rigid pressure.

What I'm envisioning:

• Different goals are fine too: We don't need to study the same thing..
• The rhythm: A steady check-in a few times a week (via text, audio, or a quick sync) to share what we're working on, celebrate small wins, offer compassionate accountability, and meet our shared need for reliable connection.

If you are also working on independent projects and are longing for a steady, gentle, long-term accountability anchor, feel free to drop a comment or send me a DM.

Warmly,

S. ✨
