π Deep Talk instead of Small Talk
We bring people together who want to have meaningful conversations β in small groups that are a good match. No shallow activities, no group pressure β just real Deep Talk.
π‘ Why Urban Friends?
Loneliness is a growing issue: Studies show that one in three adults in Germany between the ages of 18 and 53 feels at least somewhat lonely β often despite having plenty of social contacts. Itβs not about the number of encounters, but about the fact that many relationships feel emotionally insufficient.
π₯ Why groups of four?
1:1 meetups often feel like a date β awkward, especially with new people.
Studies show: The best conversations happen in groups of four β meaningful, relaxed, without awkward silences.
When a fifth person joins, groups tend to split.
π― Matching by conversation style
Some people like to listen carefully, take their time, and choose their words thoughtfully. Others speak quickly, interrupt in a charming way, and love a lively flow of conversation.
β± The 30-Minute Rule (Robin Dunbar)
Research shows: We invest most in friendships with people who live within 30 minutes β whether on foot, by bike, or by car.
