I’m in the midwest, in the middle of my phd, using the sacred few hours of sleep I got to scroll reddit while binging on the trashiest reality TV and early 00s MTV music videos

tbh, since moving here I’ve been aching to meet people that aren’t related to my professional or academic sphere, and rarely got the time to do much outside the lab, so, here I am, it seems meeting people online could be good bet :o

Hello! I'm a passionate and adventurous soul with an insatiable curiosity for the world. I thrive on new experiences, whether it's exploring distant lands, indulging in diverse cuisines, or simply enjoying a cozy movie night at home. Life, to me, is a series of wonderful adventures, each one a chance to learn, grow, and share with those around me.

Interests

• Travel Enthusiast: I have a deep love for travel and have been fortunate enough to do a bit. I can’t wait to go on my next adventure.

• Movie Buff: Films are a window into other worlds and perspectives. There's nothing quite like getting lost in a good movie and then discussing it in-depth with someone who shares the same passion.

• Social Butterfly: I believe that life is best lived in good company. I cherish my friendships and love meeting new people. Whether it's a casual coffee date or a relaxed evening with friends, I'm always up for socializing and making new connections.

• Food Explorer: Trying new foods is one of my greatest joys. I have a curious palate and love trying new food. From street food vendors to fine dining restaurants, I enjoy the full spectrum of culinary experiences.

• Board Game Aficionado: There's something magical about gathering around a table with friends or family for a board game night. I enjoy a wide variety of games, from strategic games to cooperative adventures. It's a fantastic way to challenge the mind and foster camaraderie.

What I’m Looking For

I'm searching for someone who shares my zest for life and is ready to embark on new adventures together. A genuine, kind-hearted, and open-minded person who values honesty and communication. Someone who appreciates both the thrill of spontaneous travel and the comfort of a quiet movie night in. If you love to laugh, have a positive outlook on life, and are excited to explore new horizons, I'd love to get to know you.

Life is an incredible journey, and I'm eager to find a partner who is as excited as I am to experience it all. Let's create memories, discover new passions, and enjoy every moment together. If this sounds like you, don't hesitate to reach out. I can't wait to meet you! 😊

Hi there,

I'm a 24-year-old guy from the Rotterdam area, currently studying to become a sailor. I'm hoping to finish the study at the end of the year.

I'm 178cm tall with blue eyes and light brown hair and a short beard. I tend to be a bit introverted, but I warm up quickly to those I connect with.

In my free time, I love riding my motorcycle (weather allowing), gaming with friends, and watching movies. I also have a passion for travel and exploring new places. I'm looking for a kind and caring woman who's up for adventure.

I'm a Christian and would love to connect with someone who shares my faith. But if you're not, that's okay too.

If you think we might be a good match, feel free to reach out.

Hey there, I'm Dee. Trying this again. Let's see how it goes.

• About me: So again, hey, I'm Dee. Any pronouns, but AMAB for those that are nosy. Just don't really care how I'm perceived gender-wise.

Semi-important, I guess, but I have autism. It means different things for different people, but for me it contributes to my social anxiety and general awkwardness haha.

I'm kinda short. 5'7"-5'9". Haven't checked in a while. I'm heavier set, but working on loosing weight. Here is a recent selfie. And here is a picture I particularly like.

I enjoy watching and collecting movies (I think I have around 300 now), reading, writing, making playlists (happy to give recs), singing here and there, video games, fun facts, and a random assortment of ever changing special interests.

• What I'm looking for: I'm looking for someone, preferably close to at least visit once in a while, but I'm open to long distance.

I definitely want to take things slow, build friendship before anything else. Someone kind, funny, and caring. Someone who enjoys actively doing something, or even just independently doing separate activities in the same room. Someone to enjoy both silence with, and neverending chattering about our interests with.

I would love to say that looks don't matter, and genuinely feel awful for this, but physical attraction is important to me, so I'd prefer someone on the thinner to mildly chubby side. For some reason not a fan of facial hair? Or at least I'm picky with it? I don't know it's weird. Don't really let any of this but deter you, it's a weird attraction thing wired in my brain that I'm hoping passes, but is at least somewhat important for now.

If any of this sounds like you, DM me here, or check out my profile links.

Hey there! Let’s dive into the basics:

About Me:

• 28 years old from NSW, Australia.
• 173cm tall with an average build with blue eyes and brown hair, currently in the process of growing it out.
• I’m as pale as they come—so much so that I might blind you in sunlight or turn into a tomato if exposed for too long.
• I work in tech/finance, but don’t worry, I’m not a finance bro.
• Happy to swap photos if that helps!

Personality:

• I’m pretty shy and anxious around new people, but once I warm up, I’m talkative and engaging.
• Introvert at heart, but I do enjoy going out with friends.
• I’m not religious and while I respect all beliefs, it might be tricky to connect with someone who is deeply religious.

Hobbies:

• Gaming is a big part of my life—mostly chill games, whether solo or with friends on Discord.
• Occasionally embarrass myself with a round of golf.
• Metalcore fan here! If you’re into Polaris / Thornhill / Sleep Token / etc let’s chat!
• I’ll stay up late to watch Verstappen race or mourn McLaren’s near-wins.

I’ve tried various dating apps without much luck and would prefer to connect with someone in Australia.

I’m looking for someone to make daily activities, like grabbing coffee or running errands, more enjoyable as well as enjoying common hobbies.

I've also kind of caught the travel bug so I'd absolutely love to have someone to travel and see either Australia or the world together.

If this sounds interesting to you, send me a message!

I’m 27, 5’7”, 140 lbs, Hispanic, prior military. I got my life together and am in my second career living on my own. I haven’t made too much of an effort to go out chasing people at parties or anything. So here I am now :) If it feels dry or unorganic, then it wasn’t meant to be! You’ll know when the vibe is right and vice versa!

I’m a geeky dude who likes to be cancerous and goofy with those closest to him. I like to do a little bit of everything, gaming, other nerd shit, I surf sometimes, buuuuuut I like to watch a cozy movie on my weekends.

Asian food is the best food.

Hit me up and just say hello! :)

I'm a 20-year-old autistic man. I love anime, video games, and horror movies. I also like to write scripts. I am autistic and overly affectionate, so forgive me for that. I love cuddling and head pats, too. I'm looking for a strong, independent woman with a strong will, a sassy but loving personality, classy and elegant aura and a good fashion sense.

I can definitely help with that! Here's a profile draft that highlights your qualities, your needs, and what you can bring to a relationship, in a way that feels genuine and grounded:

About Me:

I’m someone who deeply values connection and simplicity. I’m 27, 6'3 tall kinda big boy 😅 and at this point in my life, I’m looking for someone who truly understands the beauty of everyday moments—like coming home after a long day, sharing a quiet meal together, and simply enjoying each other’s presence. I’m looking for something real, a partnership built on trust, care, and affection.

I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on what matters most to me: meaningful conversation, mutual respect, and being there for each other through the ups and downs. I’m a person who is open, affectionate, and thoughtful, and I’m ready to give that love to someone who values the same.

What I’m Looking For:

I’m seeking someone who’s looking for depth and authenticity in a relationship. Someone who’s ready to share those simple, intimate moments—a warm hug after a long day, the kind of companionship where we can be ourselves without the need to impress. I’m not looking for games or empty promises. I want a connection that feels like home, where we both care for each other, make each other laugh, and support each other’s dreams.

What I Bring to the Table:

I bring honesty, loyalty, and the kind of love that’s ready to grow into something beautiful. I’m someone who will always ask about your day, listen to your thoughts, and make you feel seen. I believe in building a life together, where we both feel valued and loved for who we truly are. I’m ready to give my all to someone who will give the same in return.

If you're looking for a genuine connection, where love is built on respect and affection, let’s take the next step. I’m ready for the kind of love that feels like coming home.

This profile is designed to show you as someone thoughtful, genuine, and ready for a real, lasting connection. Let me know if you'd like to adjust anything or make any changes!

yes this is a repost, and my last reddit attempt to find somebody

im so bad at introducing myself im sorry

but anyways im abby, im 19 (20 this jan!) with italian/german descent and lived in both countries during my childhood (no i dont speak the languages unfortunately) im in my 3rd year of college for criminal psychology (as a generalization), and i live in central virginia but i dont really mind where ur from

btw i am very shy and insecure honestly so i will rarely send pics of my face. like ill send some at first if u ask ofc to see what i look like but i hate my face (respectfully) so dont expect facetime or anything plz

huge possible red flag-i had a highly troubling past and have carried mentalillnesses from it but im getting better day by day

my humor is very inappropriate and dark and idk basicslly the worst thing u could think of. the brain rot has gotten to me and i made 23 hawk tuah jokes earlier tn (this is a cry for help)

anyways theres more abt me but im prob going to sleep after posting this bc i hwve to br at work in 5hrs okay bye dm me pleade

not bye actually, im 4'10-4'11 w blue eyes n dirty blonde wavy hair (that i straighten too much obv) and idk how to describe my body, im not bigger hope this helps ok bye

EDITS i forgot to add- im good with kids and i talk too much

I want to start things off a little dark. Maybe that will help me find people I can relate with emotionally. I have no family, I have been no contact with my parents for years and everyone else is dead. No siblings, live alone, spend holidays alone. It's not as bad as it sounds and I don't try to inject myself into my friends' family holidays even though they'd probably take me. I'd say I'm a chronically lonely person and that feeling almost never goes away, but it does dull when I surround myself with others. I struggled with mental health a lot growing up and it wasn't easy getting to where I am now. I empathize with anyone who had family members who put them down and invalidated them. If you're struggling now just know things can get better and it's okay to fail. Why do we fall, Bruce? So we can learn to pick ourselves up.

I have too many hobbies. I play card games competitively (magic the gathering is one of them) and fly to tournaments all over North America. I build models and paint them from time to time, I sing and I promise I'm not terrible. I'm an ex MMO player, I've played tons of diablo 2/3/4 (This season is not it by the way), and I'm currently playing The Bazaar, a few shooters (deadlock) in addition to league of legends/tft/hs: battlegrounds. Sci fi/fantasy are my favourite genres. LOTR, The Expanse, Evangelion, Your Name, and A Silent Voice are close to my heart for movies/series/anime. I'd love to find someone to travel with, I have some places on my list I'd enjoy much more with the right company.

I exercise to keep my mental health in check for the most part, and while lifting isn't my favourite thing to do I really enjoy boxing and by extension MMA watching. I've been pretty reclusive since the pandemic (I know that was quite awhile ago now) and I spend most of my time inside mostly due to my plethora of indoor interests (But a little bit because of my mild sun allergy). My hairdresser thought I was 26 the other day. Goes to show what no sunlight and napping in between meetings can do for your skin.

My corporate tech career lets me work from home and outside of meetings I can be available during the day. Nearby is always great but I think I can make most time zones work for the right person. If you're comfortable, I'd like to voice chat early on as I feel text is really lacking in tone/inflection. My voice for reference: https://voca.ro/1ShbPHVjjoF9

We'll see if anyone were able to make it through my wall of text. I'd love it if you introduced yourself, what we have in common, what made you reach out. The safe word is francais (which I can't speak fluently I'm sorry) so that I know you actually read my post. :')

No, the title doesn't have any hidden meaning, I swear 😅

Hello, it's nice to meet you, whoever is reading this! I'm a 24M from California and I'm looking for something real and serious. Distance doesn't really matter to me - and while I would prefer someone closer as it makes eventually meeting much easier, I'm open to someone from anywhere, as long as there's intent to close the distance!

I'm 6'1, with long dark hair and dark brown eyes. I'm fine with exchanging photos after talking for a little while - not looking to do it right away as I believe that personality matters to me above everything else. A beautiful soul will always stay beautiful, after all! That being said, physical attraction is still important to me as well.

Some hobbies of mine include gaming on PC, cooking, reading, writing/the occasional drawing, and listening to almost every genre of music (ask me for a playlist). I'm pretty introverted and very much a homebody, and I'd prefer someone who is similar and shares some similar interests (you don't need to share all of them, as long as we have at least one in common).

My friends would describe me as very caring, fiercely loyal to a fault, considerate and sensitive, but also witty and dark. Communication is very important to me, and basically necessary as I am on the spectrum and I may miss cues or not pick up on things others might. I am very affectionate and will put 110% into someone I'm invested into - I enjoy making someone feel special! I can also be a bit clingy, and I am very much hopeful that you are too. I enjoy spending lots of quality time with someone, and it's one of my love languages (the other being physical touch, but that's a little harder to do online, haha!). I'm really hopeful that I can find my person on here and fall in love with a wonderful, beautiful soul inside and out.

So, what would my person be, might you ask? Well, I don't ask for a lot honestly. I'm pretty open to dating anyone who's between 20-30, but if you really resonate with my words and you don't fit in that band, please feel free to contact me anyway. I'm flexible. Additionally, I ask that you share at least one of my hobbies/interests (gaming and music sending you to the top of the list). Bonus points if you enjoy talking and conversing a lot. I don't mind if you drink/420, but please no smoking. Also, I definitely like someone who knows what they want and aren't afraid to take it for themselves. Aside from that, the two things that are truly important for me are as follows - is that we communicate. If something doesn't sit right with you, or if things don't work out for whatever reason, let's both be adults about it and talk - and secondly, please be patient and compassionate with me, as sometimes I can struggle to process my emotions into words effectively (and may just go nonverbal at other times). In exchange, I am very understanding and sweet/caring and have been told I am great at comforting.

I know I have kept this post rather short, but I would rather organically learn about each other than reading some word vomit - experiencing the real deal is always so much better! Please include the word "grapefruit" somewhere in your message, and I will not be responding to anything low-effort. Please put some thought into your message (but it doesn't need to be super long either) - if you have anything else you want to know about me, just ask! I'm a pretty open book. Chats are preferred but PM's are completely fine too.

Anyway, thank you for reading this! I hope you have an amazing day and I'm looking forward to talking to some of you wonderful people!

I am tired of all of thr BS of looking for a "soulmate". All the tediousness of dating and the nonsense that goes with it. I got divorced this year and it's made me realize a lot of things, including: I was not as good a dad as I thought I was. I was phoning it in this last year with all of the bs and drama with my ex. But since separating, I've really gotten to create the relationship that I've always wanted with my kids. Another thing I've learned is that you really can't make it alone out there. I have no support system, I'm starting over from scratch and I'm having to do it completely alone. Like my title said I'm looking for a partner. A friend, a confidant, a corner woman. Someone that's looking to be together in all things. Someone that will accept that my kids are the world to me, and I would set world on fire for them. Someone willing to work together to survive and thrive. Someone that understands that we can't make it completely on our own in life. This is turning into a drunken rambling so I'll end with this. I'm a loyal, loving, semi intelligent, semi good looking man, that's still got love in his heart for someone. You treat me right and I'll treat you right. It's real simple.

My likes are my kids(duh), the outdoors, quiet, good food(I'm a pretty decent cook), nerd shit(video games, movies, dnd), new england sports teams, reading and music.

That's all I gotta say right now. Hope to make a new friend.

Let's get this out of the way first(don't want to waste your time)....I'm quadriplegic due to a genetic muscle disorder that causes progressive muscle weakness in every muscle of my body. This includes my cardiac and pulmonary muscles. I also use a power wheelchair so as you can imagine dating is a bit more difficult for me but I have found love on Reddit before so I’m back to find it again!

A LITTLE ABOUT ME: I would definitely call myself an introvert. I'm extremely even-tempered so it takes a lot to piss me off and/or offend me. I'm a good listener and very easy to talk to, I have been described by previous partners as genuine, kind and sweet. In person I can come across as quiet and shy at first but, I just need a little time to get comfortable with someone before I really open up.

----THIS IS ME----

Some things I enjoy....

-Making people smile/laugh

-Watching sports(Padres and Chargers)

-The cringiest of puns d4d jokes

-Standup comedy...Tom Segura, Bill Burr, Bert Kreischer, Andrew Schulz, Bobby Lee, Norm MacDonald, Mark Normand, Dave Chapelle, and many more.

-Collecting Batman memorabilia

-Podcasts like YMH, Tigerbelly, Kill Tony, TYSO, 2 Bears 1 Cave, Bad Friends, etc.

-Music...I mostly like Alternative and Classic Rock but I'm into some pop and open to everything really. Foo Fighters, Wet Leg, Cage The Elephant, RHCP, Queen, The Eagles, AURORA, etc. (Current Obsession is Chappell Roan}

-Going to concerts

-Shows...Currently watching Hacks on Max. all time favorite show is Breaking Bad

-Watching movies like horror, thrillers, sci-fi, comedy, and Super Hero stuff is fun Taskmaster!

ABOUT YOU: I’m looking for my best friend and partner, someone who wants a serious relationship. I want someone who is kind and compassionate, trustworthy and genuine. Someone with a sense of (sometimes dark)humor who can make me laugh and doesn’t take themselves too seriously. Someone who is not afraid to be silly sometimes. As for location, anywhere in the U.S. is fine as long as you are able and willing to visit me. It would be ideal if you could eventually relocate because that is currently not an option for me.

To show me that you’ve read the entire post and are serious please include the word football in your message. If you have any questions regarding my condition please feel free to ask me ANYTHING.

Don’t be put off by my disability, I don’t bite....unless you're into that ;)

Ok so imagine this…

We regularly go out onto dates, sing and dance like no one’s watching, try new foods, and adopt animals together.

We support one another through thick and thin (that’s what she said). Whether it's cooking, baking, or reading together, we enjoy spending time with one another.

Or do something hot like.. do taxes together,

Communicate well so we understand each other,

Or clean our home together while jamming out to pop music… got me heated ALREADY 🥵

Hell, let’s take those cute pictures together or tease one another too with pictures we take… you know, those ones you see on Pinterest?

Ok ok let’s be serious now lol. There are many more things we can discover together. The things we love, like, dislike, and hate. We can date the old fashioned way and see if we click, perhaps deserving of a second date? Let’s do a cafe date? Let’s go to the movies and I’ll give you a flower. I won’t spoil all my secrets, of course :) we’ll have to level up our relationship to unlock these secret courses 👾🎮

A few things you should know about me though;

• I don’t condone cheating/one night stands.
• I don’t like smoking
• I’m looking for something serious
• I respond quickly, so if you’d like me to adjust that; please feel free to ask! (Reddit varies, it doesn’t notify me all the time)
• I love animals and I have a year old kitty.

The things I expect from our relationship;

• Communication! Please tell me how you feel or how something made you feel. We can make a routine on maybe reviewing how we feel at the end of the week and see what improvements we can make to help accommodate each others needs.

• Loyalty. I love deeply and you will be my priority above all else. I know actions speak more than words and I’m sure “loyalty” is self explanatory. I’d rather prove my loyalty above just saying it.

• Understanding. I am not a perfect human. No one is… I have flaws that I’m working on and actively fixing. My mind works differently. I have ADHD and have been through things in the past that, unfortunately, have left a mark on my mind (I.e anxiety, people pleasing, etc.) although I have more under control than before; I sometimes slip up.

🟩Green Flags about me🟩

• I’ll always find time for you. I will make time.
• I’ll almost never be late (can’t say never for this)
• I will always want to talk with you, phone call or text
• Career/family driven
• Bachelors degree
• I have a plan in life
• Car problems? No problem.
• I love baking and reading. Let’s cuddle and read to each other?

❌Red Flags about me❌

• ADHD
• Struggle to remember things (I take notes though)
• I overthink things. But this is why I love communicating.
• I think I’m a fairly average looking guy.
• I will find your tickle weak spots.

Here’s the jist of everything! Would absolutely love to hear from you. Have a wonderful day today or have a good night 💤

Hello there! I am back again in the “best”place to do as what the title says hahaha

Why Europe? Although I had no preferences, it’s been a year since I’ve had talks with mostly people from this side of the world and I enjoyed it, thus choosing this location. I live somewhere else though. So yes - I am looking for someone who I can have daily talks and have fun with. If the connection is there and with interest on both sides, open to eventually an LDR. I have tried for just something fun online for a while now but in the end, I realized I am looking for something that could end up being serious. (Please read the previous sentence again) I have met nice people here hence why I am back posting here.

As for me, I am from somewhere in Asia. I also started a job this year that requires me to work very long hours everyday, like shitty kind of work schedule. But I can still talk most of the time especially during my night shifts. When not at work, I spend my days drowning in caffeine, watching movies, going for walks, exercising and doing random things thought of that day. But most probably chilling with a dog (who is not mine, I only help spoiling him)

I like art and do some painting when there’s time. However, art doesn’t like me back 😅 Hoping I can start learning pottery in the future. Music? A bit random but leaning towards instrumentals and jazz. I love film scores. Movies? Horror is my go-to.

Lookswise - morena Filipina, 5’1 (155 cm), 45 kg (99 lb). Can exchange photo once we’re comfortable with each other. Or if you are willing to, right at the start. Let’s be honest attraction is very important in meeting people.

As for other things, let’s just talk. Open to any topics.

Also, please be a real person, with good intentions, honest and can communicate. And please don’t message if you’re just looking for a quick exchange 😊 I would more likely reply if with a photo (yours will get mine) and stating what you want out of the conversation. At this point, I need boundaries 😊

Hello! Quoting the GOAT Wayne Gretzky, “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” (I love The Office btw). So here I am, shouting at the void, looking for a genuine connection. I am not into sports and don’t watch ice hockey, but maybe you can tell me more about it. :P

I am introverted and a homebody, so meeting people in real life is hard for me. I am looking for someone I can constantly talk to after a tiring day, play games with, or watch things with on weekends. I am busy during the day but can talk at night.

As for hobbies, I play video games a little bit, but I am not a gamer. I spend most of my time binge-watching TV shows and movies and scrolling senselessly online. I also love listening to music and kind of listen to all genres, but the late 2000’s emo era has a special place in my heart. I like travelling and experiencing new things, like eating at a new restaurant, visiting a museum, or attending a concert. I’ve done those things alone, and honestly, it’s so tiring doing them alone. I wish I could do it with someone, so who knows, we might do it together if we click.

As for you, I am looking for someone who can hold a conversation and is consistent. Tell me a bit about yourself, what music you listen to, what shows or movies you like, what your hobbies are, what makes you feel alive, and we’ll see it from there. I know reddit is not the best place to find a romantic partner, but I am tired of the dead conversations in the apps, so I might as well try here.

I started out in Henry County, KY and ended up in Northern Kentucky in 2009

In that time I graduated college, got divorced, started a record and Blu-ray and 4k collection, bought a house, and learned to drive and bought a car.

Now I’m just trying to navigate the dating world in my 30s.

I’m not a stereotypical Metalhead as I don’t have tattoos and long hair however trust in the fact I do love metal.

My dms are always open, and I'm looking forward to hearing from you😁

Also, I would consider myself to be romantic.

If you've read this far, thank you. I will say my name through dms.

Hello fellow Redditors!

As we enter the holiday season I’ve been feeling a bit more alone than normal. This year has been particularly difficult for me. And my melancholic temperament has been slipping closer towards despair…so you know I’m a lot fun ;)

I crave deep connection and deep conversations, which honestly makes the early stages of conversation difficult for me at times. But I love talking about art, music, film, and books. I love Russian literature, especially the stories of Chekhov. I love Kafka. And my favorite novel is “the Unbearable Lightness of Being”. I’m drawn to bands like Bright Eyes, Okkervil River, the National, and Phoebe Bridgers.

I enjoy watching foreign films by film makers like Ingmar Bergman and Michelangelo Antonioni. But I also love American film makers like the Coen brothers, Wes Anderson, and Charlie Kauffman.

Physically, I’m 6’5”. I have green eyes and brown hair. And I have an average body. I walk a lot for work, which is my primary form of exercise. Personality-wise, I’m an INFP on the MBTI.

I’m ultimately looking for my partner, but I know that takes time. I’m more than happy to find more friends. Ideally I’m looking for someone in the U.S. or Canada, but I’m open to talking to people from elsewhere too. I apologize in advance if it takes me time to reply. I wish everyone the best in finding their person. It can be such a lonely process sometimes.

You know what they say, if at first you don't succeed....... ehhhh something or another. You get the point!

(P.S. pictures of me on my profile. I would appreciate one or more in return when being messaged!)

Searching for the "one" isnt easy, but what can we do aye? First things first, to throw some random bits of info out there about me! (Info dump incoming 😂)

I'm 24 and biracial! Half Irish and half African/northern Indian, and I'm living in the UK!

I'm approximately 6'0"-6'1" in height and id say an average/kept build. I also have somewhat long-ish hair for a guy, going near my shoulders, it's naturally straight! I also have a well kept somewhat shorter and neat beard :) I also have very fair skin. I guess I took physically more from one side of my heritage 😂🤌 I'm also a Muslim lad! So just putting that out there too for the sake of it.

I do enjoy binging on junk food but between my high metabolism and my physically active job working as an electrician (which I'm trying to fully establish myself in) I tend to never put any weight on 🤷

So! What am I looking for? Well it's a long shot. I'd like to imagine something like the female version of myself. My other half. Someone I find attractive, kind, easy going, fun to get along with, can hold a conversation without making it feel like a one sided effort and chore. Etc!

Important note!!!

IF you are not from the UK. Be aware relocating doesn't appear to be an option for me currently 😅 so bear that in mind please. I am open to a potential long distance but again. There's that.

I guess I'm the hopeless romantic type. Fantasising about soulmates, something real, serious, natural and everything great. Is that easy to obtain these days? Bruh. HECK no 😭 but can a guy try? Well, here's to hoping I suppose. Guess only time will tell

Anyone between the ages of 20 - 29 is welcome! (Won't go lower than 20! But I may go higher than 29) Anyone who wants to actually get to know each other and dreams about something sincere and real! (With some fun stupidity and jokes thrown in there of course, that banter is a must🗿👍)

I like a woman with a little bit of confidence ya know? Probably one of the most attractive personality traits, who can hold a conversation and engage with the other person you know? Nothing more off putting than someone who gives single worded dead replies lol

Here's a bit more about me. My hobbies! my hobbies are various. I'd argue I'm an ambivert. Though my main hobbies lean towards something a little more introverted. You have hiking and the likes as well as going out with friends and driving around at night with them, but then you also have gaming which is a huge hobby of mine!! Well probably the thing I do most consistently

So yeah! There's my shot being let out. I'd say I consider myself to be an honest and open book and would like someone who is open, honest and genuine in the same way! P.S. If you actually read this post add the word "Lemon" into your message to see who's actually properly read 👀

Oh! And my preferred platform is Snap! Though I have one or two other things like discord etc, but realistically I'm not going to stay only on Reddit, and snap is the ideal choice

So. Here's to hoping!

Passionate

If you have similar interests/hobbies and would like to be friends, feel free to message me

Hey there! I’m a guy looking to meet someone who could potentially become my boyfriend, but I’d like to start off as best friends and keep things strictly SFW. I’m serious about this, so I hope you are too—I’m not here to play games.

What I’m gonna say only works if you’re from the US or Canada, because I’m travelling to New York and Florida in March, if we get close enough we could meet up.

What I’m Seeking: I’m hoping to meet a handsome, skinny or average-built, masculine guy with a great personality. Let’s get to know each other and see where things might lead. My ideal age range is 18 to 28. Could that be you?

A Bit About Me: I’m more on the masculine side and I’m all about love, care, kindness, and being supportive. Writing love letters is something I really enjoy. I believe in compromise and commitment, and when I fall in love, I’m loyal to the core.

What I Look Like: I’ve got hazel eyes, short dark blonde hair, and an average build. There’s a picture of me in my profile.

What We Could Do Together: I’d love for us to chat on voice and video calls, watch movies, and enjoy music together. If any of this sounds good to you and you think you might fit what I’m looking for, feel free to send me a message. If not, no worries—just trying to save us both some time. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Let’s make this a success story!

Hello! Prepare yourself for a detailed post meant to weed out those who aren't a good fit to save us both time.

I’m a Bisexual 31F from SoCal who enjoys reading a good story or watching a fun stream and telling my significant other all about it so they can also share in the excitement. I like sharing in the joys and spreading happiness around because I am invested in the well-being of those I care about. I try to better myself every day because I don't believe we ever stop learning or growing. I work as a research analyst for a mental health non-profit in LA and have learned that working with numbers is way better than working with people haha.

I am looking to start a fulfilling relationship with a person (M, F, 🌈NB, and 🌈T welcome). If you identify as ace, we won't be a good fit but I do hope you find your person!

About Me:

• I am an outgoing introvert with a sense of humor. Dad jokes, improvisational humor, sarcasm, wit-word play, and a tiny bit of dark and self-deprecating humor are the types of humor I engage in. I enjoy teasing people without making fun of them.
• Funny, caring, compassionate, logical, optimistic, mischievous, confident, assertive, observant, organized, and loyal are all words that describe me. I'm not big on lying (I struggle with keeping surprises a surprise), I tell it how it is (but I do try to soften how I say things), I mean what I say, am terrific at planning and thinking ahead, and I try to be flexible with plans. And sometimes, I goof around. But I am not much of a people person (no one would call me the life of the party).
• I always try to push myself to the next level. I enjoy finding my limits and pushing past them. If I don't know how to do something, there is nothing stopping me from learning it. For example, I have taught myself how to use some data analytical software just because I wanted to advance in my career. And I enjoy hitting new PRs in the gym.
• My preference in music is more in the realm of EDM but I also like pop and indie music. I enjoy music with quick beats and often listen to that when I work out.
• I recently got back into running but have been weightlifting for years now. I enjoy going to the gym and I think it could be nice to have someone to go with and cheer each other on. Strength building for health and quality of life are more important to me than the aesthetic outcome (that’s just a bonus).
• Thanks to my 1 year-old rescue, Arlo (Pitbull and Malinois mix), I spend a lot of time outside but genuinely enjoy going to new places and can’t wait once Arlo is more trained to explore new places again. But I also enjoy a good night in, watching a show/movie/stream.
• I love Harry Potter (I have this area of trivia covered, haha), Marvel Universe (Black Widow and Iron Man are my favorite characters; Tom Holland is my favorite Spiderman), some DC, Star Wars, and Twilight, and I am a big fan of Scooby Doo, mysteries, and puzzles. Clue is my favorite board game, and I can get competative in Monopoly. Like everyone, I also play UNO incorrectly (according to them) but honestly, the +4 card really should be skippable when countered with another +4. I enjoy Dramas, Crime, Action, Psychological Thrillers, and Fantasy in my shows/movies/books. I love watching horror movies but shy away from slasher films. Gore isn’t my thing.

Favorite holiday is Halloween. Then the Christmas season. I’ve always wanted to have an enjoyable Christmas season with my little family and even make corny Christmas cards to send out to our friends where we’re all in matching outfits.

• Have three degrees in psychology (AA, BA, MS). While I enjoy learning about certain aspects of human behavior (decision-making is very interesting), I prefer working with numbers so my background is more analytical and centered around healthcare.
• I do some casual gaming on my PS4, mostly RPGs and FPS like God of War and Call of Duty. I’m currently playing Black Ops 6 with friends, and I'm willing to play with you if you're interested. Heads up, I'm mid at best, but that doesn't stop me from having fun (and I'm not a camper or toxic, but I will curse if frustrated enough--I'm looking at you, Warzone).
• Not religious (but supportive of those who are spiritual or religious), left-leaning politically, happily part of the LGBTQ community, am a sucker for cute animals, will sing in the car if I love the song that's playing, am willing to give you the last bite of food (that I saved because its the best piece), I avoid sad endings in movies and shows, love language is acts of service, not someone who does things a certain way just because that is how it has always been done, resistant to peer-pressure, and I try to meet people somewhere in the middle during conflicts. Us vs The Problem, not You vs Me.
• Arlo and I both love cuddles and want someone else to cuddle with.
• I am not a smoker, drug user, and barely a social drinker.
• I want to run a 10K one day, travel more, practice my Spanish because I'm forgetting it (no one tell my mom because I’ll never hear the end of it😂), actually finish a short story I have started, jump out of a plane, learn to swim (I haven't gotten around to it), go glamping, try my hand at pottery, and so much more.
• Physically, I’m 5’6” Hispanic, tanned, with brown eyes under the glasses, pixie-cut dark brown hair, one tattoo (I want more), and a little overweight (although I am actively working on slimming down a bit).

Are we compatible:

• What I’m looking for is someone to talk to daily, who puts effort into getting to know one another, can banter back and forth a bit, and is serious about connecting with someone. Because this is online, transparency and communication are very important and I want to connect with people who are going to tell me what they’re thinking and feeling and are inquisitive about what I’m thinking and feeling and want to get to know me.
• You need to have your act together, be financially responsible, have a job/career, be LGBTQ friendly, be a decent human being, be independent, emotionally mature, consistent, supportive, affectionate, honest, have a growth mindset, and be politically left-leaning.
• You should mostly know yourself, and if you're part of the LGBTQ community, you should be "out." I'm too old to be with someone in the closet or who isn't being true to themselves.
• Be dog-friendly. And cat friendly because those of you who hate cats for no reason are weird.
• You should be someone who takes care of their health. I don't care if you're "chubby" or have a "dad bod." Do keep in mind I have an active working dog and I would like you to join us in our adventures. This requires at least a low level of physical activity. And I am happy to cheer you on if you're someone who is currently working on yourself 👏. We can go on chill walks together.
• You would have to be willing to move to SoCal one day. I might be willing to move somewhere temporarily for the right person (1-2 years), but SoCal is the endgame. I'm too attached to the beach, the culture, the food, and the entertainment to leave forever.
• I have a preference for those taller than me.
• You aren't a smoker, a drug user, or a heavy drinker (I am 420-friendly so long as you're not smoking it as it gives me a headache-- edibles welcomed).
• You are likely between the ages of 27-36, give or take a year or two for the right person if we really connect.
• You don't have children (see below for an explanation).

Potential dealbreakers:
Honestly, I have no idea if I want children or not. Therefore, for those of you who are parents, it wouldn’t be fair to your child if I wasn’t sure about committing to them. I have great qualities that would make me a wonderful mother, but I am so burnt out from having parented adults during my childhood and young adult life that I don't know if I can commit to parenting children for the rest of my life at this moment. Maybe with the right person, this wouldn't be such an exhausting journey but right now I am on the fence, although I have always wanted a family since I was a child, having been neglected by my own. But for now, Arlo and a partner would be enough.

FYI, I would like to get another two dogs in the future (a Malinois or Dutch Shepard and a Doberman) and possibly a cat once I have a bigger place to accommodate them all 😅so hopefully that fits in your 5-year plan. Raising pets has not been as exhausting as raising people, apparently.

Some interests, hobbies, personality traits, aspirations, goals, dreams, or qualities should overlap. I think a good sign would be that if we could see being friends with each other, then it could be an indication of something more working out. Lastly, if we hit it off, I'd like to do voice chats on Discord and if that goes well, meeting up eventually would be important. In the meantime, we can chat on here. I am very active on my phone.

If any of this interests you, feel free to reach out with a meaningful introduction about yourself and be prepared to share a recent selfie when we connect. Just "hi" messages will be ignored.

Hi, I’m Ally! Long time lurker, fourth time poster. I guess I’m looking for the same as most? My person, soulmate, love of my life, you know the drill 🤷‍♀️ too much to ask from a Reddit post?? Absolutely but hey, I’m an optimist

I guess this is the part where I talk about my self? Well, I’m 25, from Canada, I’m a teacher and super passionate about it. I like to read, watch movies and binge TV shows, go on nature walks/hikes, get into stupid shit with my friends (all the usuals right?). I should probably add that I’m a bigger gal, so if you’re looking from some thin model type I’m probably not the one. I definitely feel like it’s more exciting to learn about someone through conversation, so message me if you’re interested?

As for who I’m looking for, I’m willing to talk to anyone in US or Canada (it gets too complicated otherwise). Although if I base myself off of past posts, I may not be able to answer all of you but I thank you so much in advance for reaching out! ☺️ Also if it’s not too much to ask, could you add something in your message so I know you’ve read this? Can’t make it too easy with a question, comment on something I’ve said and I’ll know! I hope you all have a wonderful rest of the night and (hopefully) look forward to hearing from some of you!

I'm 30 and living in Ontario (Southern), work full time from home as well (finance).

I like:

-Playing bass guitar, and learning guitar recently

-Video games (Pc,PS5, Switch)

-Working out (10k steps daily + weight training often)

-Cooking (No one has died yet)

-Sports (Soccer mostly)

-Movies (Mostly binge worthy TV shows)

I am very affectionate and love to express my feelings. I can be slightly shy in the beginning but I can easily beat that once I am comfortable. I am your biggest hype man and try to make you feel as good about yourself as possible!

Here is a picture for reference : https://imgur.com/a/PHtiLdZ

Looking to meet some new women with the hope of dating . Some of my favorite activities include playing pool, drawing, writing, all kinds of art, watching sports and playing hockey. I am writing my own book and look for inspiration everywhere I go. I am somewhat introverted but am looking for someone to branch out with. Looking to experience new and fun things. Hope we can talk more soon.

Hello, and welcome!

This ad features bolded portions for those who don't want to dedicate the time without some reassurance it may pay off!

I'm very interested in meeting like-minded folk who believe they have some similarities with me and that we may click. Specifically, I'm seeking a cisgender woman (a preference of mine, even for platonic relations) that's 18 or older from any country and background (who that woman is matters more to me than details of this sort). I'm 34 and male myself, living in the Eastern US. I adore thorough and passionate interactions with a meaningful basis. I dislike trivialities and meaningless expectations.

I want to feel and create a deep bond that's built little by little with every conversation and action. In this way, I'm open to any possible type of relationship with the people I meet here, from acquaintances, to friends, to penpals, to something more intimate. Our connection should develop over time. My ultimate goal is to bond with those I jibe with regardless of where we end up. We'll need to feel out what works best for us and where we want to take things and when. I've experienced everything from becoming very close with someone within the first conversation to remaining very brief with others after weeks. I've enjoyed everything from regular/daily casual texts and banter to several page e-mail penpal exchanges. Let's get creative and go with the flow.

I've also always been the type to want to meet new and interesting people. Lacking similarities has actually opened me and those I met to things we would have never considered before. Some common interests and especially character traits are vital, but completely relating and having everything in common isn't as important as you would think. Knowing what traits matter most comes out in chat and interaction, not a checklist of things to conform to. I've been surprised by who I was able to bond and share with, so I'm open to a lot. I hope you are as well.

I want to make it clear that if whoever is reading this feels like we may have a connection or ability to bond together they should message me. No hesitations or doubts, please. I don't believe in losing potential and being self-defeated before anything even occurred. I've not uncommonly been told I'm patient, kind, and easy to talk to, which I hope is just as true for those I come across here. Should you like or need it, please allow me to soothe your nerves instead of allowing us to suffer from any misunderstandings or difficulties.

More about me and what I'm seeking:

• I like long, intimate, deep, and personal discussion. By this, I mean not being restricted by trivialities and actually being ourselves. I'm not someone who likes casual chat about things that don't matter to either of us. Be genuine and authentic. It can take time to feel comfortable and be seen in a raw form, but doing so is an ultimate goal.
• I adore vulnerable people with complexity and seeing who someone really is. Having a comfortable space to fully let loose is an ideal. We all hurt, and some more than others - I disagree with the notion that one should hide these aspects of themselves. I'm openly accepting of sensitive and traumatized people and see their mental state and experiences as having a great deal to offer despite the difficulties. Personally, I'm in a sort of 'third phase' of my own development. I no longer do the opposite of what caused my difficulties and no longer intellectualize my pain in hopes of convincing myself I've somehow fully eradicated it. I meet people where they are, but find it important to state where I am.
• I value creativity and like artistic types. I express this myself through writing and more literary arts. In particular, I write intellectually, about general observations and thoughts, and poetically - mostly to other people in the form of conversation partners (I'm very much a conversational thinker and writer and can go on for a long, long time about a plethora of topics with the right person). I appreciate and admire all sorts of expression, even if it's a type I'm not personally involved in.
• I'm INTJ and Type 5, since some people seem to like knowing. I like taking different types of tests to understand myself better, although a lot of them seem petty bunk to me, including MBTI and Enneagram. But, it can be a decent basis and fun activity to share with someone. I also enjoy taking tests with other people and comparing results, as well as discussing the tests themselves.

More about my values, passions, and interests:

• I like to ruminate, research, and learn new things. I don't like to constrain myself, and I strive to see various topics in intricate and new ways. I'm, by choice, an autodidact, and prefer this sort of person as well, or at least those who can appreciate liberated knowledge acquisition and comprehension. I believe there's always more to know and more ways to know those things - humanity can only comprehend so much, and less than we think we can. The motto 'Nitimur in vetitum semper cupimusque negata.' is a pretty good summary of my intellectual ethics. Those who believe certain topics are beyond any and all forms of reproach probably won't do well with me in this endeavor. In this case, we should limit ourselves in order to benefit from what does happen to be there, or simply adopt a different motto: 'Friends who want to stay friends don't discuss religion or politics.' In my experience, it's not polarizing stances that cause difficulties between people, but how unwavering someone is in their resolve, refusing to so much as listen to what another person has to say.
• I believe in eternity - in both directions. This means I have a primary focus on the future, a significant focus on the past, and acknowledge the present moment as a form of transience between the two. I'm not a "live your life to the fullest" type. My life started before I had it and will continue after it's gone, but I do believe in simply absorbing what's there while it's there. I'm not uncommonly melancholic, but am almost never lackadaisical.
• I live a very dynamic life and have since I was young. I might stay up chatting until dawn one night and then be passed out by 5 PM the next one - likely because of the lack of sleep during the first. My pursuits, job, and the other demands of life are in constant flux. My resolution has always been to regulate these various needs and wants and to intensely focus on them when and if possible. I don't believe in being "too busy". You can always find time for someone, even if it's not consistent - finding that flow and appreciation of each other is vital.
• Photography, tech, incense, time pieces, archiving, and abstraction have always interested me and continue to do so. I'm always surprised by what people consider to be interests and hobbies, so I probably have more I take for granted and didn't list here. I haven't consumed media regularly in years, but used to engage with a lot of it when I was younger, mostly including movies, anime/manga, and video games. I still watch movies from time to time, being more prone to it when I have someone else to accompany me. If you're looking for a gaming buddy or TV junkie you'll need to find it elsewhere, but I'm not fully opposed to sharing or talking about these things with someone either. I used to love it at one point.

Are we looking for each other? I'd greatly appreciate a reasonably lengthy chat/message in which you told me what within my ad resonated with you, what you're seeking, and anything else you may want to mention. I would like to get to know people with a level of depth akin to what I wrote here, and will end up asking about these things at some point anyway. I look forward to us chatting and connecting around meaningful and fervid passions.

A little about myself. I'm a 5'7 long brown haired, skinny white guy (selfie provided upon request or if you share one). I usually go for people close to myself physically but nothing is explicitly off the table! I love writing, biking, gaming, and just having a good time. I love to make people laugh and generally like to take life less than seriously. I'm looking for someone who is into games or random shows, and just kinda wants to chill even if there's not much else going on. Just enjoying each others company and vibes. What type of games you may ask? Well that's a big question there. I have over 700 steam games now, but I mainly go for chill/indie games. Not into competitive stuff or shooters so ignore this if that's all you got! A few specific examples I love are card games like Magic (would love to teach), relaxing stuff like Terraria, Bloons or chill stuff like that, puzzle games like We Were Here, every rougelike ever, story games, board games!.. the list goes on! Would also have an interest in chilling out with shows that aren't anime, I like comedy or plot driven stories like Avatar or Walking dead. Anyways I bet no one has the time to be reading a novel of a post, message me if you are around my age, are within the USA, have Discord, and play PC games ( no console only sorry!)
