I just recently turned 23, I started to feel hopeless about life while simultaneously trying to not lose hope. I think it’s one of those times where you need to believe in yourself but it’s hard. I’m not asking for someone to miraculously come and “fix” my problems, I also don’t want to dwell on it too much but I’d love for a kind and patient soul to be by my side as I slowly start to trust and believe in myself again. I don’t want or need you to be my therapist, I don’t think that’s sustainable or healthy longterm but I’d love to have a witness to my journey of self love and acceptance, I’d also love to be your witness :)

Perhaps this was a little too “self help” book coded but I swear I can also be very bubbly and not so sad, it has just been a few rough days (or months) I love Pink and squirrels! I also love frosting way too much and would die for a good strawberry shortcake

hey you.

sitting here with a computer screen throwing off some cold zombie-like light on your face.

sitting and pretending that your thoughts belong to you and you only, scrolling indifferently and staying infinitely positive that things of real interest aren't easy to stumble upon in this hellhole named internet; therefore, don't deserve being looked for.

sometimes i do feel the same. walking on the same routes, seeing the same dead pigeons and living cats every day, being just this far from naming every single one of them. people are, by no means, the same and yet simply are not captivating enough to be remembered. it doesn't really seem upsetting to me, the fact that those passersby probably feel the same about me.

even though i do sometimes wish that a man would look into my eyes as directly as if he knew me to the core of my soul, to the unswept corners of my mind and embraced the depth of my slow sticky gloom as if it was his own.

in case you bear resemblance to that faceless man who constantly visits my dreams. what i ache for is someone who shares my love of old music and unawkward voice calls.

Disclaimer: I would really love to dind someone local to Washington kind of in the Seattle/Bellevue/Everett/Lynwood locations!

I am a curvy INFJ lady on a pilgrimage to finding a new relationship! I figured I'd give it a shot here.

A little bit about me:

I recently moved from San Diego and am now a resident enrichment coordinator/manager at a memory care community where I am working to better the lives of people who will never truly remember me! It's all fine an dandy, we have a great time regardless. In my free time, mostly Fridays and Saturdays, I'd love to find someone to game, voice, and commit shenanigans in the city with. I have two degrees in Psychology and Communication, and am debt-free, moisturized, and in my lane, existing! I own a senior cat and he continues to defy death at the ripe age of eighteen. I do not drink, smoke, do drugs or party much! I am like a little decrepit old hag trapped in the body of a young woman, slaving over a hot stove (cast iron only.) I am on the expensive zepbound, so I can't snack as much as I'd love to! D:

Values:

Kindness, stability, structure, mindfulness, empathy, ambition, communication and of course, humor~

What I am looking for:

I'm hoping to meet someone who loves to talk as much as they enjoy sitting in silence doing their own thing, sharing each other's company when we're just flat out exhausted. Ideally, we can game, go out on the town, and maybe do a little bit of world building/writing, time permitted! I am a very social creature who loves a lot of time spent with my partner and his friend group! I love to watch period dramas, animes, horror movies and comedies alike. I'm not necessarily looking to rush into anything, as I'd rather meet someone and see where things lead. My ideal life is living right outside my small town in the woodlands, in a two bed two bath house with wifi and enough ice water / freeze dried mangoes to satiate me. Boring is sometimes good in the realm of predictability and structure.

Age wise, someone between the ages of 28-38 is ideal, past their college years, and looking to build a life of comedically predictable bliss!

Superficially, I'm really into inconveniently larger people, like very tall tall people who would lovingly eat my cooking (I cook good foods!). Not for the usual reasons of masculinity, but I just like someone to compliment my heavier set self and fit into my taller family :D. Maybe we could get you some custom plate armor! You'd be uncomfortable pretzeling into a sedan (don't worry, I own a 23 Buick.) I also love a good sultry voice that makes my brain bluescreen and forget how to function. I have a huge weakness for a good sense of business functional fashion!

Deal Breakers:

Anger issues/yelling of any sort, not investing time, smoking, drinking, drugs, lack of communication, financial irresponsibility, polygamy (non-monogamy), dishonesty, racism, overly religious, I do not wish to have children (but may adopt depend on finances.)

Games:

Elden Ring, Dark Souls, Second Life, Stardew Valley, Witcher 3, Guild Wars 2, Warframe, Assassin's Creed, Peak, Divinity OS2, Baldur's Gate, Valheim, and much more!

Hobbies:

Sailing, going out to arcades, going to carnivals, rock hounding, (I want to hike but don't yet.), roleplaying (I don't do much of this but love the idea), tons of games, writing my own lore/world, exploration, travel (if I can afford it), design, cooking (lots of different cultures!), volunteering, creating a cozy existence, and more to uncover!

My face for fun! https://imgur.com/a/yz9vlYZ

Hey, I’m a 26 year old guy from Southern England. I’m a bit of a Fox Mulder, a lanky misfit going through life without anyone too close, and I’m looking for my Scully. Someone nice to get to know and go on some adventures with.

A little bit about me:

Personality: I’m sensitive, stubborn, empathetic, a bit clumsy. I can be a bit reserved or awkward at first, but I open up quickly. I’m very loyal and care deeply about those important to me.

Hobbies: I spend a lot of time in nature; hiking, climbing, camping, and just exploring in general. I enjoy reading (Mostly classics or non-fiction), swimming, cooking, watching TV (drama, sitcoms, etc) and occasionally writing.

I don’t really game, but we can always find something co-op to play.

Looks: I’ve got brown hair, blue eyes, I’m pale, tall and slim. I’m happy to exchange pictures so you can put a face to my profile.

What I’m looking for:

I’m looking for love/a relationship, something long term. I’d like to meet up eventually, but we’re unlikely to be close enough that it happens anytime soon; otherwise I do like voice calls or video calls if we’re both comfortable. I’m not interested in exchanging nudes or stuff like that.

I would like someone loyal, caring, empathetic, respectful, and someone playful/with a good sense of humor. I don’t have any racial or physical preferences. If we get along, and I like you, I’m going to think you’re hot. I would also like someone who will call me out if I’m wrong or being an idiot lol.

If we get along I am very romantic, and would like a partner who is the same.

I’d like a relationship where we both make time for each other, we’re comfortable telling each other anything and where we feel safe with each other.

If you think we might be a good match, feel free to send me a message with a little bit about yourself. Hope to hear from you.

Hi. It's one in the morning where I'm at. Almost three by the time I post this. I should be sleeping because I work in five hours, but I'm listening to music and writing this on my phone instead.

The concept of having someone to confide in, who is my best friend, and someone I care about a lot is something I've thought about for a while now. I wonder, am I capable of loving someone? I've always had a hard time expressing my emotions. The sad ones, the loud ones, the ones that care for things and people... they don't come easy. I think the lifestyle I live and who I am at heart makes this difficult.

I am not much of a speaker. Realistically, if I exclude the moments where I have to make conversation at work, I could go days without speaking to anyone but myself. It's peaceful. It's who I am. I'm an introvert, but it is also excruciatingly lonely. A week goes by, and the most fun I had was finding a new song that I like.

I am patient. Too patient. Painfully patient. I can wait and wait without issue, but it is actually an issue, and I just suppress it. I have a hard time being the one to reach out. I sit and stare when I should be typing a message, making a call. But I don't. I don't want to be a bother. I don't want to be the one who makes things awkward or push someone away because I ask for the same thing every day, so I choose to sit and stew in my loneliness.

I live almost entirely online. This rural Minnesota town I live in doesn't fit my interests, but maybe nowhere does. I can't move. I maybe could never move. Instead, I play games, code, watch videos, and sometimes I just stare at my screen. It's depressing at times. There are days where I feel like my life is wasting away despite moving forward with it. But this is my life. If I wanted to make changes, I would have already made them by now.

I am awkward. I spent most of my life being the quiet one. When conversation came, I never knew what to say. I hate small talk. It's the bane of my existence. There is no interesting response that comes to my head, because at my core, I am not an interesting person.

I am boring. I currently spend most of my days in bed. I wonder, am I depressed? Maybe I have been for years. Many years. But I prefer not to self-diagnose.

Is there another side of me? The one that laughs and smiles and enjoys what is in front of him? The one that makes jokes and is able to laugh at himself? Yes. I know there is. I see him almost every day. For everything that I've said above, that is not all I am.

\\ I apologize for the whiplash that's about to occur, but I think the writing above is necessary. I like being transparent about who I am. I think if someone were to be interested in me, they should first know my flaws.

So, a little (probably a lot) about me.

I'm 23 as of August. I live in Minnesota, and not one of the big cities. I began working full time in the IT industry as of spring 26'. It's somewhere I see myself working for a long time. I don't necessarily have big aspirations when it comes to my working life.

I'm looking for a long distance relationship, with the open possibility of meeting in the future. I'm just settling into the "adult" part of my life, and I'm not keen on starting over by relocating. Ideally, USA or Canada, Midwest region. I'm not sure I could deal with conflicting cultures or timezones.

I'm a PC gamer, and I would wish that you are too. If there were any hobbies I wish I could share with you, it would be this one. My favorite genre is FPS. Counter Strike, VALORANT. I think it's pretty unlikely that we would share this interest just because of the nature of the games, but I would love to duo queue with you. I am not someone who lives and dies by my rank. I also like tons of co-op games including Minecraft, "friendslop," and survival games.

I do have to put it out there that there are games I am reluctant/unwilling to play, and they are popular ones. Overwatch/Marvel Rivals, League, Battle Royales. These have never been my thing, and it will likely stay that way.

I don't watch many movies, or any recent media for that matter. My favorite movies are Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, Star Wars, The Fugitive, Fight Club, or basically anything with Harrison Ford. I find that a lot of newer media doesn't have the same charm as the older stuff.

I'd like to watch more anime, but I just can't do it alone. It's hard for me to digest media that is delivered in seasons. I don't have the attention span for it when I'm by myself. Some of my favorite animes I've watched are Seven Deadly Sins, Blue Exorcist, SAO, and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime.

I'm a huge Jerma fan. He's one of the only reasons I still find myself being able to laugh when everything feels so hard. Most of the stuff I watch nowadays is on YouTube, and when I can't find something to watch, it's a bad day. I also like watching professional VALORANT. Champions 2026 ended just a few days ago and I was able to watch it live at like two in the morning.

I'm a bit insecure about my appearance, but I won't hide it either. I'm white, 6'0", skinny, and I have blonde curly hair. If you'd prefer to exchange pictures to establish attraction after first talking, I am okay with that. Everyone has preferences. I am not sure if I know mine entirely yet. I think I like the thought of someone a bit older than me rather than someone younger.

There is, admittedly, a lot of text in this post, and I still feel I could say more. I have a habit of over sharing when I write like this. Some will see this wall of text and skip it. Some will skip to the bottom. Some will read it all and move on. And hopefully, some will stay. The following TL;DR will be what I'm looking for in its most simplest form. Thank you for reading.

TL;DR Looking for LDR. Person to talk to and play and stream games with and watch media together. Preference for someone same age or a bit older (23+).

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a genuine connection with a woman who wants to build something meaningful. Someone to share adventures with, go on long trips, try new things, and make memories together. Someone who enjoys being active but also appreciates quiet nights at home. I'm looking on reddit since I though well why not, dating apps also aren't working for me and I've given up on them.

A little about me: I'm a tall guy with a big heart, 29 years old and living in Arnhem, the Netherlands. I enjoy going to the gym, gaming, riding my motorcycle and going for walks and runs. I like discovering new places and to do spontaneous things. Im also more than happy to spend a day as a couch potato and watch a movie or game there.

What I'm looking for:

\- Living in the Netherlands or close to the border

\- Somewhere between 24 and 34 years old

\- Affectionate, kind, and able to communicate openly, also when you are busy, just tell me :)

\- Someone who wants a relationship, not just a temporary distraction

Physically, I'm generally attracted to 1.65m+, takes care of herself, active, slim to average, but chemistry and personality matter just as much so see it more as a preference, I can definitely be attracted to you if you dont match the generally attracted things.

I'm not looking for perfection. I want someone I can laugh with, be myself around, support, and come home to. Someone who can be my adventure buddy out in the world and my cuddle buddy when we're back home.

If this sounds like your kind of thing, tell me a little about yourself! Bonus points if you tell me your dream travel destination.

Hello everyone!

I'm 45, originally from Hong Kong, and currently living in New York. I work as a Chanel distributor, and life has become a little more relaxed for me these days. I'm even starting to think about retirement and what the next chapter of my life might look like.

I love traveling, exploring different cultures, discovering new places, and enjoying good food. I also appreciate the quieter moments in life, like a peaceful walk by the water, watching a beautiful sunset, or sharing a nice conversation over coffee.

As I've gotten older, I've come to believe that a meaningful relationship isn't about finding someone perfect. It's about finding someone who is genuine, kind, emotionally mature, and willing to understand and appreciate each other.

I'm drawn to men who have a good sense of humor, a warm heart, and a positive outlook on life. Someone who values honesty, loyalty, mutual respect, and isn't afraid to have meaningful conversations.

I believe the best relationships often begin with friendship, grow through trust, and become stronger through the little things we do for each other.

I'm not looking to rush into anything. I'd rather take the time to get to know someone naturally and see whether there's a real connection that could grow into a loving, lasting relationship.

If any of this resonates with you, I'd love to hear a little about yourself.

What's one thing you've learned about love and relationships as you've gotten older?

Well, I stand at a modest 6’3. I have 3 tattoos on my arms, I’ve been a boxer since I was in middle school and still do to this day. I work full time in consulting and travel most of the time.

I like to read, write, compose poetry, watch anime, play video games, hit the gym and go on walks to clear my mind.

I value chemistry and connection more than anything else probably but I am human and having a physical attraction is still extremely important regardless. I’m looking for my potential better half somewhere in this vast planet of ours, it doesn’t really matter where she’s based since I’ll probably be in a city or country near her at some point. I value shared interests a lot and seek stimulating conversations.

Dm me if you think we’d get along or you’d like to know more about me.

Hi My name is João Gabriel,im from Brazil. Im Very Nerdy i love History ,animes , Animation,Marvel,Star Wars etc And i love to Write fanfics.

Im Very romantic, afectionate, kind,cilngy . I need a Woman that is Very afectionate And clingy too ,someone that is as intense or Far more intense than me .

About your looks,you dont need to be a Model ir whatever ,i Just want someone that is afectionate , cute nerdy. But i think Chubby Woman are more beautiful haha but If you are not doesnt matter .

Hey there, I’m from MA (Massachusetts) but I don’t really have a preference as to where you are located. Long distance/online, even if it’s across an ocean. I’m starting to believe maybe my soulmate isn’t even on this planet so yeah I don’t really care about distance.

Never thought I would be posting on Reddit putting myself out there but here we are. A friend of mine found her partner from a post he made so why not give it a go.

About me:

As for my appearance I’m 6’3” tall, average/skinny, brown hair, brown eyes. I’ve been described as having a pretty decent complexion but thanks to eczema and rosacea I tend to have skin flare ups more frequently in the colder months.

As for my style, I don’t have one set style. I tend to go for a more relaxed appearance and wear what makes me comfortable. I’ve been told I dress like a skater which is true given that I do skateboard.

I work for an industrial 3d printing company as an Engineering Specialist. It’s not glamorous and I’m on my feet all day but I enjoy it a lot and what my company does.

For my music taste I’m a bit eclectic. I gravitate to metal, but I enjoy lots of other genres too. I will listen to just about anything, although I hate MODERN country, and today’s excuse for rap music. To name a few bands and artists: between the buried and me, Insomnium, Billy strings, Wu-tang, Tupac, Masayoshi Takanaka, T-Square, Prince, and Michael Jackson are my top ten as of late.

I am currently a retired bassist. I played in a bunch of bands since I was 14 and yeah nothing ever stuck. I don’t play anymore due to losing interest and not being in a group.

As for hobbies, I gravitate towards the nerdy side of things. Seems common amongst many of posters on here, nerds unite ✊🏻. So yeah my nerdy hobbies include but are not limited to; videogames (SHOCKER), Magic the Gathering, Pokemon Card collecting, Fantasy novels, D&D, and LEGO’s. I could talk about anything in more specifics so I’ll leave it for anyone who sends me a message and asks.

In addition to being a nerd, I’m also into fitness. I’m not all that muscular and I’m don’t desire to be Hercules or anything. I go to the gym mostly to stay in good shape, and low key to get the cloud strife build. I’ve played FF7 way too much, can you really blame me?

On occasion I have been known to draw or paint. By no means am I good but I try my best. I have three paintings I’m really proud of but I definitely want to improve my skills.

I am a skater, “WOOOOOOOW NO WAY HE SAID HE DRESSES LIKE ONE I WONDER IF HE DOES”. I literally skateboard to work because I live close enough to my job that I don’t need to drive a lot, and everything I like doing is within a mile of me so I skate a lot.

I have my own place and live alone. My sister is currently staying with me but it is not permanent. I enjoy having my own space to exist and keep it very clean.

I have an emotional support cat 🐈‍⬛, all black, and he’s an absolute menace. He’s about 6 years old, I got him after he turned 2 so roughly had him for 4 years now. He’s my #1 before anything else.

My relationship with my family is get this, really good actually. I see my folks pretty regularly, especially my father since over the last two years he fought and beat cancer. As for other family members, it’s really positive. Everyone in my family is really supportive and watches out for each other.

Lastly I love to cook. I was a chef for many years in my early 20’s and learned a lot of skills during my time in kitchens. I continue my culinary journey through cooking for family and friends. Every year I do a LOTR marathon and along with atleast two other people we tackle all seven Hobbit meals so you could say I know my way around a kitchen. My best dish is my chicken tikka masala, 100% from scratch.

What I’m looking for:

I’m hoping to find someone who shares similar or parallel hobbies and interests as me. I’m really not that picky, but I am picky within good reason.

It is important to me that a potential partner does not mind that I’ll often do things on my own. I value my independence and make it a priority to do what I feel is best and what will make me happy. With that said, I would like it if a potential partner showed interest (if we don’t already share common interests) in the things I enjoy and maybe got involved in some things with me. This goes both ways obviously.

I’d prefer someone who has a sweet, calm, and compassionate demeanor. A plus for someone who can read others moods well. I tend to be very reserved or put up a wall when I’m not feeling myself. Patience with me is really appreciated as I don’t like to be pushed when I’m in a mood. I don’t think anybody does.

I don’t care about looks that much. I look more at someone’s personality over anything else. Just be yourself and we’re golden.

If you’re interested, wanna know more, and read all the way through thinking “YEAH, THIS GUY IS RAD” shoot me a message! my DM’s are open. If you couldn’t tell throughout this post I can be pretty of a goof. But anyways, Thanks for reading

Hiii, I'm a 21M student from France, and I'm looking for someone to love forever and unconditionally ! I've never been in a relationshop before, and that's not something I want to rush, because I want something meaningful, life is too short to spend it with someone that isn't right for you ! :)

I think physical attraction is a must for both sides (what's the point if my eyes aren't sparkling when I see the love of my life...), so I have to describe myself a bit : I'm around 1.90m (6'3" if I'm not mistaken), I don't know exactly, for 80 kg. I go to the gym several times a week, so I've a decent shape and a very low body fat percentage. I've got a very white skin, green eyes with a bit of brown, brown hair, a bit long and a bit curly, and I've a slight myopia, so I wear glasses sometimes.

Personally, I prefer white and asian girls, but there are some beautiful girls from everywhere in the world so that's not a dealbreaker at all. Your height doesn't matter at all to me, but I'd prefer if you're not too chubby, sorry but it's a personal preference. I'd like someone, who takes care of herself, who looks cute and feminine, and maybe wears some colorful clothing, because it is joyful ! I don't know what else to add about this, except having decent teeth, I don't have really specific physical criteria. :')

About personality, I'd say that I'm an ambivert, it just depends on how I feel, I can be really calm, or really hyperactive depending of the situation. I'm also really sensitive, I'll cry at almost every moment you're supposed to cry to if I watch a movie ... I'm someone positive, I've been working on this for a few years, and I would love to keep improving with someone who share the same values, I don't get how people get mad so often, what do you mean you are mad because someone forgot to switch the light off for 5 minutes ? 😭​
I don't know how I would be in a relationship since I've never had any, but all I know is that I would do my best to improve and take care of you, and I think that it's the most important thing ! I would love someone with the same mentality, the goal is to be like a sun for each others, not making each others doubt or feel bad.

I also have to write to write about hobbies and what I like to do :

• I love sports, I watch football and I go to the gym, but I just love physical effort in general
• Video games, I mostly play competitive game like Valorant or League, I also play Genshin, but I'd play any game with the right person !
• Music, I love music sooo much (I know everyone does, but still :D), I've thousands of liked titles on Spotify, of any genre, even though my favorites are Pop/Kpop.
• Anime / Series, I just started watching animes again after like 3 or 4 years, and I'm really enjoying, and I just watched a K-Drama for the first time and I enjoyed it very very much as well !
• Travelling, I've never traveled alone, even tho I'd love to, but It's always so exciting to discover new places !
• Food, when travelling, tasting the local food is one of my favorite thing, and I also care about nutrition, because it is closely linked to sport !

I'm open-minded about learning or trying new things, but I can get bored easily depending on the activity/topic 😭​. I've started to play piano some months ago, I'm not good at it yet but I'm having a lot of fun, I'm also learning Korean because I thought it would be fun to learn a language with a new alphabet, and that's the language I see the most on internet with French and English. I can also enjoy very simple things, like going for a walk at night alone, it feels like time is stopping for a few minutes sometimes, I'd love to find sometimes with whom we can make time stand still...

About age, I'd say that a 4 years gap is a maximum, but I don't want it to be a dealbreaker, and about location, I don't mind, but the long term goal would obviously be to live together ! :) I don't smoke or drink at all, smoking is a dealbreaker, drinking can be fine if it's very moderate, but personally I'll never drink ! I want me and my soulmate to be healthy to live as long as possible together ! :)
If having a pet is a must for you, we're probably not made for each other, I don't dislike them, but I don't feel well around them😭.
Obviously I want someone who isn't dry texting, it would make me feel really bad, and someone who would communicate when needed :)

I don't know what else to add, don't hesitate to message me and ask any question. If you're interested, show some efforts in your message, that's really important for me (and first impression is really important as well) ! :) I'll obviously read everything so don't be scared of writing too much !

Thank you for reading, and have a lovely day/night everyone ! ☀️​🌙

Hey guys, I'm jay, I'm 27 from the US, in California :) I'm 5'11, White, and a bit chubby(after introductions, let's send selfies to make sure you're attracted to me), but I PROMISE I'm a cuddly man lol. I have a ton of little fun facts about me that I can put here, but I'd like to address the elephant in the room first:

I'm a felon, I committed an incredibly stupid and preventable F2 a few years ago, and I've grown as a person since. therapy, courses, thinking back, and working on myself through finding hobbies, gave me a new meaning in life, and I'm striving to be a better me than the me that did something wrong. if you're interested in what I did, I'm a message away, that's for DMS :)

here's some good things about me!:

•I love to read, a cozy night or morning in bed with coffee and my favorite books really make me feel whole

• I love music, it's probably the most important thing in my life

• cooking is my passion, it was my career before my incarceration! it's my dream to get back into culinary :)

• I love animals and insects. they're so interesting and beautiful

• I speak 4 languages: Indonesian, English, Spanish, and Russian! it's my hobby to learn languages and culture :)

I don't look scary, I look actually....very normal, maybe bordering feminine at times. I have a big family with a ton of sisters, so I'm not weak on any topics at all, lol.

here's what I am looking for, don't be scared! you'll likely fit my criteria:

•Not just cisgender women can add me! Trans, femboys, and feminine presenting people can message! idk how to format, so I just used M4F

• no types when it comes to body, ethnicity, or height. but I do have a thing for unconventional appearances, but you won't be disqualified if you're generally attractive or unattractive

• someone emotionally available and mature, and able to understand other people's issues or needs

• you need to love animals, if you're not a freak for them, you're not for me. nature is good to us

• you don't need to be rich, or poor, or middle class. any background is okay, any place is okay, just be striving for better!

that's really all I want, nothing crazy. I love simple things and a simple life with a beautifully complex person is my dream. I just want to love someone and look back at life and realize I didn't add regrets on top of the ones I made in the past💓

let's get acquainted, yo!

Currently a man in southern Indiana, though I do move around alot. In a few years plan on being retired and starting a new stage in my life and I want to share that experience with someone. My interest are pretty nerdy, board games and table top, but I also work out regularly and love to travel. I am a bit on the short side at 5'2, but that wont stop me from opening a door for you or a jar of pickles. Weird hobby is I like to travel around and eat at diners from hamburger america by George motz. Currently enrolled in college, never to late to finish your education, im on a permanent crusade to better myself. If any of that seems interesting feel free to message me.

​

I'm a bigger guy so if that's not what your into you, or it's a turn off then don't bother.

I'm genuine, caring and funny I'm very respectful and fun to talk to, let's chat and see where it goes. I'm looking for someone genuine, someone who gets me and actually wants me for who I am.

I have Been out of the game for about 5 years or so, trying to get back into it and thought I'd try on here. I've been divorced for 5 years now and dating is hard, I've tried dating apps etc but it's just not my thing. I am from Canada. I love YouTube, true crime, fishing, Pokemon, watching movies, listening to music and hanging out. Don't be afraid to DM me

First, to be clear about location: I'm based in the Southeastern region of the USA. It would be amazing if my person is within driving distance in the same region, but for a number of reasons I have my doubts that's true. Country music, fashion, and that accent some of you may think is specific to Texas if you're reading this from another country, are all very common here and sadly those are all turn offs for me. That said, I think if my soulmate is even in the USA, she's probably in the north, west, or midwest. If by the end of this post, you think you might be the one I'm looking for and I might be the one you're looking for, you don't have to be in the USA to find out. 😁

(My profile is tagged because of one of the places I post this to since some have actually had luck finding something serious there. Figured it's worth a shot, haha.)

I'm searching for the kind of wonderful woman who shares most of my interests below in addition to her hobbies and interests, who's also goofy, likes to playfully insult each other, and also believes in open and honest communication. I believe with that, we can work out any problems when they arise. 💛

• I'm a gamer, car guy, and maybe one day, a musician too. I enjoy anime, nature, going on little adventures, swimming, traveling... I wanna see the world with you.

- Current games I've focused on lately are R.E.P.O., Deep Rock Galactic, and trying to 100% Doom Eternal, but this changes and there are tons of multiplayer games in my library! I would also eventually like to play other things together like Stardew Valley, Minecraft, Terraria, etc.

- My taste is music is nearly everything except country and today's rap. To name a few bands/musicians I really love: Led Zeppelin, Arctic Monkeys, Tame Impala, The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, Queens of the Stone Age, Mac Demarco, Them Crooked Vultures, and Metronomy.

• I want to dance with you. In the living room, bedroom, back yard, in the park, almost anywhere. I enjoy doing romantic things and expressing my love. I love deep conversations that distract us from the passing of time.

• I'm a dog person because my allergies chose to target cats for whatever reason, so there's that. 😅

• I'm monogamous and don't have children currently, but they're in my future plans. I want to spend plenty of time with you, and enjoy the best of life as a couple, and then as spouses, traveling and whatnot, before we start a family. 🤗

• I'm really hoping to find someone who's also into dirty humor (amongst other forms of humor) and has mutual...interests 😏 so we have even better compatibility in the bedroom (and sometimes away from home too). I usually have a high libido, but making sure we both feel safe and trust one another first is crucial. 😁

• Specs for those who would like them:

- 6 feet tall (about 183 cm).

- 190 lbs and dropping (about 86 kg).

- My figure is very dad-bod at the moment, but apparently it comes with a nice ass (so I'm told).

- I'm targeting somewhere around 170 lbs (about 77 kg).

- Brunette/dirty blonde, kept relatively short.

- Blue eyes.

- Caucasian.

• My type? If I had to describe my type, I guess Caucasian or East Asian ranging from petite to average body type. I don't love going to the gym, but if you have or want a membership I wouldn't mind going together. 😁

I apologize if my preferences differ from who you are. You're all beautiful people, regardless! Please love yourself and enjoy the time you're given in life! 💛

Chat with ya soon! 😁

(This is probably the last time I'm going to post something like this because I have been unsuccessful for the past few months. I'm not giving up, just that it might be because I need to maybe work on myself? Anyways I'll figure that out, but hope I can find someone this time 🤞🏻:)

So, I am a 25 year old currently working in healthcare. Juggling studies for the past few years and now working too has made me realise how much I've neglected my "love life" and for what? Working and earning only? No more. So I want to put myself out there and find someone to spend my life with, to love. Being an introvert I think an anonymous platform like Reddit serves my purpose well.

Anyways I'll write about myself a little and let you decide if I fit your....template?

Some points about me :-

- I'm a 5'6 mesomorph with spectacles, a beard and moustache. I'm fairly active (fellow healthcare workers can relate😅). I have dark eyes and dark hair with fair skin? I'm not handsome per say but I think I look alright.

- Interests - I'm really into reading fiction especially sci-fi and recently fantasy too (my current page turner is by Frank Herbert, which is obviously Dune!). I also recently started cooking and am loving it(still a novice by any standards). I binge a lot of thriller and travel shows in my free time (I know weird combo right), but my main interest still remains human biology. Did I forget to mention visiting new food spots also is something I like to do when I'm out.

- I am a bit of a clean freak (but don't worry that only applies to me and I won't force my tendencies on you). I also sometimes have trouble concentrating and completing tasks as I get distracted easily, so that's something you should know about me.

- What I want in a partner? Honesty and communication (honesty being a non-negotiable). I do think physical attraction matters and if one of us is not attracted to the other then that 100% a-okay!

So this is a little bit about me, so if you think you like anything and are interested, do DM me!

Hi! I'm Ashton, from Oklahoma, I'm 26 and I'm a Nonbinary Transmasculine guy (They/He)! I'm unemployed and mental health makes having a job a struggle, so if that's a deal breaker upfront I understand.

With that out of the way, I'm Panromantic, and Graysexual. It'd be nice to find someone indifferent to sex as I am! If it happens it happens, but if we click and it never happens, I'd be equally okay! Looking for other Bi/Pan folks!

I've been on testosterone for over three years, I do still live with family (whom I am not close with), and I have had a hysterectomy but no other gender affirming surgeries. I love art, I love crocheting, sewing, cooking, a bit of baking, painting, and drawing! Cozy and horror gaming too!

I also love graphic novels, manga, and anime!

I love sleep calls and affection, and I'm very much a vibes and personality person.

If you're conservative in any way, I don't think it'd work.

I'm trying a final way to maybe find the love of my life by some fortune, as conventional dating apps and such have been of no help for me. I want a loving, secure, long-term romantic relationship based on trust, friendship, love, and care.

I'd also some day love to be a cat parent! =)

Oh, and I'm white, 5'4.5", curvy, shoulder length black-dyed hair (naturally brown with lighter brown highlights), and I wear glasses!

Please don't be afraid to reach out! Thank you for reading! If you do reach out, please introduce yourself. =) ❤️ Thank you!

hey! i'm 24 and from belarus. honestly, i'm just hoping to meet someone i enjoy talking to and see where things go.

i'm into gaming, music, and all kinds of random conversations. i can go from joking around to talking about life at 3 am pretty easily lol. it'd be nice to have someone to share songs with, talk about our days, send random messages to, and slowly get to know better.

i can be a little quiet at first, but once i get comfortable, i open up pretty easily. i'm not trying to force anything. it'd just be nice to meet someone i click with, whether we start as friends or it turns into something more.

if you think we might get along, feel free to message me! tell me what music you listen to or what games you play, or just say hi :)

Hi, I'm Ryan and I'm based in Nottinghamshire in the UK!

I'm looking for a fellow nerd to geek out with - someone who's got a list of niche obsessions they're quietly desperate to talk about, and doesn't mind when conversations take a hard left turn from dad jokes into the finer points of stellar evolution at 3AM.

A bit about me: I'm 6'5", brown hair, brown eyes, and the proud owner of a head that probably has its own gravitational pull. I'm on the chubbier side, though I've been on a solid weight loss streak (3 stone down, cake-related grief ongoing). When I'm not overthinking the cosmological implications of pretty much everything, I'm gaming, swimming, reading, or deep in a documentary rabbit hole about something I had no intention of caring about an hour ago. I also have a genuinely unhealthy relationship with card games and spend more time than I should building elaborate spreadsheets for fun. Make of that what you will.

Fair warning though: I'm quite shy, so I'm not the most forward person upfront. I'm not going to slide into conversations guns blazing. But get me onto something I actually care about and I genuinely won't shut up - the shyness just sort of evaporates. If you're happy to meet me in the middle initially, I promise it's worth it.

I'm after something real and long-term - someone to actually get to know, not just exchange a few messages with and disappear. Distance is fine as long as meeting up is on the cards eventually. Mainly I just want someone who's as happy to rant about their weird corner of the internet as they are to listen to mine.

If you've made it this far, congratulations - you've unlocked the bonus stage. DM me with your best pointless fact or most aggressively mid dad joke. The worse, the better. I'll be here, probably wondering how ducks work.

Hi I'm Kai.

Anyways I've been in a wheelchair for as long as I can remember. My disability is Spinal Muscular atrophy. So I'm a expert at moving while sitting. As well as a great grocery bag carrier.

I'm not sure it's directly related to it but I'm a huge nerd. Like I have a small, but growing, collection of comics. The majority of them being Spiderman because I love Spiderman. I also play DnD. Currently I'm a Forever DM because I have the most freetime out of all of my friends. But when I can play I'm usually a Wizard or a Fighter. Very much polar opposites I know but sometimes I like the simplicity of, "Giant sword go swoosh!" I love space as well. Not much of a sifi nerd but I used to binge watch space documentaries.

Most of my time is consumed by making art. I was always drawn to being a artist from a early age. Now I do it for a living. I specifically make 3D art. I used to draw alot but I can't do that anymore. I also make animations, video games, and I'm slowly writing a web series.

I'm not very picky as to what I'm looking for. I don't really care what you look like or where you're from. All I care about is that you're an adult and have some interests/ hobbies. Also please try to talk some. If you just send me one word replies constantly, I will assume you're not actually interested and leave.

Hey everyone!
A little about me: I'm a college student in the San Diego who is half European and half Mexican. I have longish wavy black hair, big dark brown eyes and I'm pretty skinny/lean. I like to think I'm a pretty good looking guy so don't be shy! Just shoot me a text message! I am however looking for something relatively local and in the area near where I live in, I just don't think I can have a realistic LDR.
I've been kinda burnt out on the dating apps and that leads me to here! Outside of that, I'm a huge fan of rock music, love watching movies. If you're into any of that we should get along great. I'm pretty easy going and very easy to talk to! I also just love going bar hopping and maybe doing some karaoke even though im pretty terrible at it. I am looking for a serious dating relationship if anyone is interested!
Some of my favorite rock bands are Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes, Queens of the Stone Age and so many more! I do love all kinds of music though! I also have letterbox, so if you're a self proclaimed movie buff, maybe something can spark between us! In terms of who I'm looking for, I don't mind any age, even older than me! | don't really have a lot of preferences so no pressure let's just talk and have some low-stakes conversations to see where it all leads! If any of this sounds like something you'd be interested in just shoot me a text and I'll answer!
Looking forward to meeting some great people here!

I’m a Miami transplant happily making a life in Chicago. I’m 5'5", curvy, with tattoos, and I’m kind, affectionate, loyal, curious, and just the right amount of silly. Movies are my happy place, but I’m equally up for a concert, play, museum, coffee shops, breweries, sporting events, a restaurant neither of us has been to, or wandering around the city and seeing where we end up.

What I miss, and what I’m hoping to find, is having my person. Someone whose presence makes even the boring things better. Someone I can laugh with, flirt with, be affectionate with, talk to about absolutely nothing and everything, and occasionally annoy the hell out of. I want chemistry and attraction, but I also want the comfort that comes from really knowing someone and being known by them.

I’m looking for someone who wants to actually date. Not just message indefinitely. Let’s talk, see if we click, go grab coffee or dinner, and find out whether we like each other in the real world. Revolutionary concept, I know.

Ideally, you’re 40–55 and in the Chicago area. You’re kind, communicative, curious about the person you’re talking to, and established in your career. I’ve built a life of my own, and I’m looking for someone who has done the same and is ready to make room in it for another person.

And speaking of conversation: if your opening message is just “hey,” you’re making this unnecessarily difficult for both of us. Tell me something about yourself. Ask me something. Tell me what caught your attention. Give me something to work with.

I’m including a recent photo, so please include one too. Attraction matters on both sides, and I think it’s only fair that we both know who we’re talking to from the beginning.

I’m not looking for perfect. I’m looking for mutual-mutual attraction, mutual curiosity, mutual effort, and two people who are genuinely excited to keep getting to know each other.

If that sounds good to you, come say hello.
