I really enjoy deep conversations, stuff like philosophy, existential questions, learning that kind of thing. Most day-to-day interactions are very surface level, and I miss having proper discussions that make you think a bit. Do these kind of social groups exist? (30 M in Dublin here by the way)
Funny when i was in my late teens i was looking forward to going to uni and beyond to move away from silly school banter and being able to find a group like this but going to uni and beyond was like going backwards - people just wanted to party (makes me sound incredibly lame i know) or talk complete shite, which is fine but not what i was expecting!
Maybe you should set up something like this? A conversation cafe.. you could post it on meet-up and specify that it will be for conversations about philosophy etc.
Have you considered testing to join Mensa and try to connect with those around your age?
Some random ideas
You don't nrcessarily need to find a group. I'm 42 and along the way I've acquired my tribe. Don't waste time on surface level people. If you're caught up in the nonsense chats your missing the chance to engage in conversations you want
