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.

Stats: Cali, LA,

30, F

5'4, fair skin, auburn hair, hazel grey eyes, curvy body with tattoos and I wear glasses because Im blind as a bat!

I really enjoy watching movies and then discussing them in great lengths afterwards over some drinks. I listen to a wide range of music, but I dont really like hip hop, rap, or country. I mainly listen to metal or classic rock.

Im not really career driven or a "hustler". I work enough to support myself and my cat and Im willing to have patience to save for things I want. My next travel goal is Ireland in 2026! I plan on seeing all the old castles, tombs, and other historic landmarks. I dont follow sports, but I will eat wings and watch them with you. I used to game a lot, but sadly its not really a priority, but if we begin to chat, maybe we can play some 2-player games on Steam! :) Ill even watch you play horror games!

Kids are a no go for me. I just cant do it. Ideally you have no kids

My friends describe me as kind, empathetic, brave, and rowdy because I like to have a fun time. Ideally, Im looking for a man who is calm natured and can help balance me out, while also dancing with me in the middle of Target. I have no interest in brand names, luxury cars, fancy clubs, or yachts. Show me a really interesting book or a nice rock and Ill probably be more into you

Looking to start a friendship and forge a strong connection that could lead into a relationship. Local or LDR is fine so long as both of us agree to put in the effort. Romantically, when I love, I do so deeply, openly, and unreserved. So I require the same in return. Im also very sexually flirtatious and love adoring my partner and being fawned over in return.

I have a fondness for tall white guys, dad bods, blue eyes, and broad shoulders :)

So if any of this sounds interesting, please send me a message of your stats and location!

low effort messages will be ignored. please be single and not married/attached still.

Hey! I'm 22M, 5'10", and hoping to meet a woman with whom I can build a genuine connection that could eventually turn into a relationship.

A little about me:

🎨 I enjoy sketching and creating art.

🎙️ I'm more of a voice-note person than a dry texter. I enjoy conversations that feel natural, whether we're talking about our day, sharing random thoughts, laughing about silly things, or having deeper conversations.

🌱 I'm relatively new to dating, so I might be a little inexperienced, but my intentions are genuine. I'd rather be honest about who I am and get to know someone gradually.

❤️ I'm looking for a partner who is also confidently childfree and wants to build a meaningful relationship without having children as part of that future.

I'm not looking for perfection or a checklist of qualities. I'd rather meet someone with whom I can feel comfortable being myself, share the little things in life, support each other, and grow together.

Distance isn't necessarily a dealbreaker if we genuinely connect, although I'd be happy to meet someone compatible in India.

If this resonates with you, feel free to DM me! Tell me a little about yourself, your interests, and what you're hoping to find here.

Let's start with a conversation and see where it takes us. 😊

Located in Houston, Texas.

• I'd like to find someone who captivates me. Someone who I can talk with effortlessly. I want to meet a person who I can include in my daily tasks, and talk with throughout the day. I just want to find someone I can be open with. Platonic conversation or romance. Whatever you are looking for, don't hesitate to message me. I hope to hear from you.
• I'm fairly open to trying new things, but some of the things I enjoy are as follows. I love the outdoors. I've never been camping, but I would like to try it with someone someday. I also love to fish. I mostly fish salt water. I do occasionally fish freshwater though.
• PC games are also an enjoyable pastime for me on occasions. I have a variety of games, most of which are on Steam. I have other games on various other stores/services. I enjoy a wide variety of different kind of games, so I'm sure we can find something to play together if you game.
• One hobby I discovered later on in life is Magic the Gathering. I play both online on MtG Arena, and with physical cards. Magic has become something I am particularly fond of.
• Music has always been a part of my life. My tastes are varied, ranging from country, death and black metal, electronic, classic rock, folk, pop punk, and more.
• I enjoy doing things outside, as well as spending time indoors. I can veg out all day under the covers curled up in my bed, or I can take a trip somewhere and experience something new. I think my personality is a mix of the best of both worlds.
• As far as my personality is concerned, I would say I am fairly relaxed and laid back. I feel like I am mostly shy and quiet, with an introverted personality. Around people I don't know, I tend to be fairly quiet and to myself. In the company of someone who I am close with, I am more open and freer.
• All I hope for is a connection. It could be platonic, or it could blossom into romance, and commitment. I'm not putting a limit on what I am looking for.
• With the prior being said, I am single. I may be interested in changing that with the right person. The idea of commitment excites me. Monogamy is appealing to me.

I'm searching for a meaningful long-term connection with someone that will make the days seem less like a blur and more like a snapshot of stars. It's akin to when you look through a kaleidoscope, and you focus on the shapes and patterns that come into view. Finding that vicarious clarity is what I live for, those fun and wholesome moments. We don't remember days, we remember moments - it would be nice to share them with someone.

A Little About Me

• Homebody at heart. I'd rather read a book, watch a great movie, look at an art gallery/museum, go for a walk, or play a game than go clubbing or backpacking across Europe. Sharing random trivia, analyzing movies, going down Wikipedia rabbit holes, or the occasional stroll somewhere is what I view as a fun things to do.

• Childfree by choice. I don't want kids, and if you feel the same, great! We can enjoy our freedom to sleep in on Saturdays and enjoy slow mornings.

• A bit of an overthinker with thoughtful conversations and the occasional existential musing about life and the universe and random theories about things that may relate to your experiences.

• I'm 6'2", slim build, half Asian/white. I have a humanities degree and work as a janitor, it's nothing like Good Will Hunting but I do have my moments.

• Drug/alcohol/smoking/cannabis free - I don't drink or smoke or use substances. I don't mind if you drink a bit, however smoking's not for me.

I'm mostly looking for someone near my city (within 15 miles) & childfree. I'd like to hear from you if you think we're a good match. Tell me about yourself, tell me about the last great book you read or a movie you love, or a theory you have about life. Here's one quote that's stuck with me by John Wyndham: "Knowing makes all the difference... It's the difference between just trying to keep alive, and having something to live for." Knowing that you have someone to share life with, that you're not just surviving but living, that you have a reason to look forward to things, it's what makes all the difference, and can make us bear any how as long as we have a why. Maybe we can find out what that difference is for a meaningful life or maybe just laugh about it.

Hi! A little about me:

Interests: I like sports. I play tennis and basketball from time to time. I also enjoy watching sports on TV. I enjoy video games too (mainly Nintendo). I love music too (rock, hip hop, reggae, etc).

I live in Southern California (born and raised). I'm Pakistani and open to all races and backgrounds.

I’m more on the quiet and shy side. However, once I get to know you, I become more talkative.

I don’t want kids. I am allergic to cats, and am not really interested in having pets either.

I consider myself left/progressive, politically.

I come from a religious (Muslim) family. I was also pretty religious in the past. Over the years, I became less practicing and eventually became atheist. I have been atheist for the past several years.

Characteristics I look for in another person - Kindness, Open-Minded, Sense of Humor.

I’m about 5’8” and 200 lbs.

I'm willing to share face photos, if we both feel comfortable.

Share with me a cool song or your favorite sport, when you message me :)

Hey there from Virginia!

About me: Fierce, independent, intentional, curious, self-proclaimed French fry connoisseur, salt addict, lover of shenanigans.

I love going to comedy clubs, musicals/plays/live performances of any kind, grabbing dinner with friends, going to a happy hour every so often, reading, a good binge-watching session, kayaking, sitting out on a patio when the weather is lovely, going to veg fests and having friends over for dinner and game nights.

5’6.5” (had to add that half lol ), monogamous, leftist, social drinker, non-smoker, plant-based (the non-judgmental kind), cat lover, formerly religious but still spiritual.

I believe that life's purpose is to learn the value of life by cultivating kindness, compassion, empathy and care. To do things with love and respect all living things. With that said, I do not tolerate the opposite of those things and I do not invite people into my life that do not share these views. The worth of a person is not tied to the things that society would like us to believe are important (social status, money, power, procreation, etc.). Each person has inherent value and how you treat other human beings says a lot about who you are as a person. I believe in doing my best and have a desire to continuously learn and grow as a person.

I am of the first generation of women that can consciously choose to live my life on my own terms and not based on some socially scripted narrative. I take that freedom very seriously and realize how fortunate I am to be able to make my own rules. I feel that one of my duties as a woman of this generation is to stand up for the rights of future generations of women to ensure that they have the same choices as I have. This is something that I am very passionate about and something I would love to share with a partner.

I have a beautiful life that I find very fulfilling. With that said, I would love to find a like-minded person with similar values to join me on the journey.

Preferably, that potential life partner is 30-48, located in the Northeastern or Mid-Atlantic area of the US. If you're empathetic, communicative, have a great sense of humor, enjoy deep conversations and prioritize peace, we might be a good match.

I do have one pretty divisive dealbreaker worth mentioning— I am not a dog person, and have no interest in a relationship dynamic that includes dogs. I know that sounds harsh to most people, but I’m choosing to pass on that lifestyle.

While I would love to reply to everyone, I may not have the logistical capacity to reply to messages along the lines of "Hey, let's connect", or those that don't say anything about the sender, because I'd love to know who you are, and what you're looking for, even if it's not as ridiculously long as my post. Haha.

Hey everyone!!

I’m 24M from Sydney, dating apps haven’t been the best and a few of my friends found their partners on reddit so I’ve succumbed!

ABOUT ME:
I work 8-5 and try to make the most of my evenings with friends or just winding down depending on how tired I am. I love playing PoGo, collecting pokemon cards (trying to master set Arceus, Dialga and Palkia), playing video games and going to the gym. I’ve started going on hikes around Sydney recently and it’s so freaking fun just chucking on music and walking through random trails.

ABOUT YOU:
In complete transparency, I’m not looking for a specific person/personality type but some ideals for me are:
- loves travelling as I’d like to explore more than just our local areas
- lives an active lifestyle, whether that be ‘Sunday sports’, the gym, hikes etc but in general takes care of their physical health (as I do the same)
- like to explore new food places and is open to different cuisines (I love food and I’d love to share that love with someone who enjoys it equally)
- RELIGION isn’t an issue for me, I’m very open as long as there’s mutual respect and understanding, I don’t want to be forced to follow a certain belief and I assure you that’s the last thing I’d do on my part as well
- AGE GAP** **isn’t really that big of a deal for me, but I’d like someone between 21-35 but if there’s a good connection, I’m willing to adjust as long as you’re not a minor (or freshly 18 at that point)!!

Thanks for listening to my TED talk and if I seem intriguing and exciting enough, please either DM me or leave a comment and I’ll DM you :) !! Happy to share more pictures of me once we talk a bit,

have a great rest of your day/night 🙂

Hiya there! :)

My name is cobalt-gengar! Nice to meet you here online! No, I definitely do wish that was my real life name, but Gengar is very much one of my favorite Pokemon, so thought it would be a great fit for me when it comes to a username. As you can probably tell right off the bat, I am very much a Pokemon fan. If you are one too, let me know what your favorite Pokemon is! Maybe that could be something

I came across this subreddit not too long ago and thought it would be the perfect place for me to make a post because it’s been incredibly tough to find someone meaningful and long-term through other venues. Sure, we live in a time where dating platforms are plentiful and allow people to chit chat with each other, but the whole experience tends to feel very diluted to me. With people juggling tons of options, it feels as though there’s a genuine struggle with meeting someone that is willing to work with you day to day, while ready to invest the time and energy. 

From what I’ve also found and observed, people tend to reach out and are excited initially, but then either hit you with excuses or slowly move away with time, not responding as much or simply just hitting you with one-worded responses. I can’t begin to count on my alien fingers and toes how many times I’ve seen this happen and have heard of it happening. I wish there was more of an effort being made when trying to get to know someone. Not to mention how prevalent ghosting has become! I would love to meet someone that doesn't ghost. Also, not really looking for someone that is still actively getting over their ex. Would like to meet someone that is ready for a relationship, has the time, and ability to commit :) Would make things easier for us.

Okay, enough of me ranting about the dating scene! Who exactly am I?

• I am 30 years old, but turning 31 in a few months. Seriously, it is absolutely mind-boggling how fast time has been going. I guess the good thing is that I’ve been told I look younger for my age, so I guess that’s good? I think I got my grandfather’s genes. He looked pretty young at an older age
• I'm a vegetarian. Been one my whole life
• Left leaning
• During undergrad, I studied neurobiology and right now am doing my Masters focused on data analytics
• I don’t do drink, do any sort of drugs, nor do I smoke (I would prefer if my partner didn't either)
• Very much a Pokemon fan as you can probably tell from my username
• Enjoy volunteering during my free time, learning about astronomy, reading adventure and dystopian novels, writing poetry casually, swimming in a pool or in the ocean (although not too far, don't want a shark nibbling on me), watching soccer and basketball at times, watching classic movies from time to time, and traveling (maybe we can travel together sometime!)
• I’m an introverted yapper. Okay, not in an annoying way, but I love to express myself, never hold back with sharing details, and generally love to get to know the other person
• Consider myself as a very affectionate guy
• I don’t have any pets at the moment
• I work full-time and do school part time (don’t worry, balancing my time is VERY important for me, I wouldn’t hit you with an “I’M BUSY!” reasoning or tell you I can’t commit to this anymore. Balancing work and life is crucial for me)
• My love languages are physical touch and quality time. Curious to know what yours are!
• Known for most of my life that I didn't want kids and that has held strong

What I can provide and what I am seeking in a partner:

• Lifelong partnership. I know, very ambitious of me to say but also highlighting my hope of making this work! Would be a great story to share!
• Loyalty. First and foremost, loyalty is very important for me. I wouldn’t want someone to be juggling multiple people at once. I want respect maintained where we are both willing to get to know the other person, provide reassurance, and exclusivity
• Strong communication. Day to day communication is crucial to longevity and viability. I do want to meet someone that is ready to communicate and doesn’t disappear after a day or hit me with excuses as to why they couldn’t communicate. I get we all get busy but it doesn’t take long to provide a quick update 🙂
• Consistency. Whether it is affection or effort, consistency is key to a healthy relationship
• Shared vision for the future. Ensuring that our lifelong vision for a partnership aligns.
• Trust and honesty. Goes hand-in-hand with loyalty
• Tons of care and love. I am a very affectionate person and would love to meet someone that had a lot of care and love to provide in return too
• Mutual effort. A relationship should not be unbalanced. I would love if we could both invest mutual effort into making this work. Would also love to meet someone down for calls and video chats occasionally when we both have time!
• Emotional safety. Where we are both comfortable being vulnerable to each other, being ourselves without worry, and open
• Kindness
• Empathy and understanding. Taking the time to understand each other, where we are coming from, and having a healthy conflict resolution too
• Maturity. Would love to meet someone that handles situations maturely and can navigate day to day life in that way too. Arguments will happen, as it does within every relationship, but I think it’s important that we both come to the table and are able to understand and look through things through the other person’s perspective
• Humor. Someone I can let loose with, laugh together, and just share those inside jokes, too

I would love to hear about what you think about these qualities, whether it lines up with you, and what you seek!

I also don’t mind long distance. As long as we are both willing to invest the energy and time into getting to know each other and making this work, while also being open to closing the distance eventually.

If this post resonated with you and you are seeking the same thing as I am, I would LOVE to hear from you! If not, then I appreciate you for taking the time to even click this. I realize I typed a lot, but thought it would be beneficial to share as much info about myself and also what I am looking for online, in the hopes that it lines up with what someone might be seeking too.

Can’t wait to hear from you! Unlike an actual Gengar, I won’t be hiding in the shadows, so feel free to reach out! :)

Would be great to post our success story here one day!

Hey, stranger on the internet! 👋

So, here I am, a 27-year-old guy trying the very modern approach of introducing myself to strangers on Reddit in the hopes that one of them might eventually become my favourite person. A little unconventional maybe.

I like getting to know people beyond the usual small talk and discovering all the little things that make them who they are.

I'm here hoping to find a long-term relationship. I'm not looking to rush anything or force a connection. I'd rather get to know someone naturally, see how we click, and let things develop at a pace that feels right for both of us.

One of the things I look forward to in a relationship is sharing the little things in life. Having someone to tell about my day, sending each other random messages, laughing at inside jokes that probably make no sense to anyone else, and simply enjoying each other's company.

I'm firmly childfree, and I'm looking for someone who feels the same way. I'd love a monogamous relationship built on trust, affection, honesty, and good communication. Someone who's not just a romantic partner but also a friend you genuinely enjoy spending time with.

I don't have an enormous checklist when it comes to finding someone. Kindness, curiosity, affection, and a sense of humour go a long way. I'd love to meet someone who can be playful and silly but also isn't afraid to open up and talk about the things that matter. We don't have to share every interest; I think discovering each other's worlds can be part of the fun.

I'm also open to long distance, as long as there's a realistic possibility of meeting in person and seeing where things go.

If any of this resonates with you, come say hi! Tell me something you're passionate about, share a random thought that's been living rent-free in your head, or just tell me how your day has been. I'm curious to see who I might meet here. :)

Hey hey! I'm a 25-year-old guy from Texas, the yeehaw state, and I'm hoping to find a sweet, confident woman who might be looking for her very own affectionate good boy. Bonus points if you happen to be a Mommy Dom with a soft spot for a guy who loves attention, praise, and making you smile!

A little about me! I'm naturally affectionate, talkative, a little goofy, and admittedly a bit clingy once I get comfortable with someone. I love texting throughout the day, sending random messages about whatever pops into my head, checking in to see how you're doing, and sharing the occasional meme or video that reminds me of you. Basically, if we're getting along, there's a good chance you'll see my name pop up on your phone quite a bit! Of course, I'd love for that energy to go both ways. I really appreciate a woman who enjoys messaging me just as much as I enjoy messaging her.

I'm also a big fan of praise, both giving and receiving it! If you've had a rough day and need someone to remind you how wonderful you are, I'd happily do my part. And if you enjoy making a good boy blush with a few sweet words, well, I certainly wouldn't complain. I'm a sucker for affection, reassurance, playful teasing, and those little gestures that make you feel wanted even when you're miles apart.

As for my interests, I love anime, manga, and cartoons. My second language is basically references, so if you remind me of something from a show, game, or random internet video, there's a decent chance I'll send you the clip immediately. You've been warned! I listen to all kinds of music, and my Spotify favorites are an absolute mess of different genres, although pop music and video game soundtracks are definitely among my favorites.

Speaking of games, I'm usually playing something on my PS5, Steam Deck, phone, or Ayn Thor. I have a soft spot for classic games, especially older PlayStation and GameCube titles, and I enjoy tinkering with technology and modding games whenever I get the chance. I'm a bit of a techie, so if you ever want to hear me ramble about something gaming related, you've found your guy!

Now, what am I actually looking for?

I'd love to meet a woman who's confident, affectionate, playful, and enjoys taking the lead. Someone who can be a little bossy, tease me when I'm being a goofball, give me praise when I've earned it, and occasionally say something that leaves me blushing at my phone. However, I'm especially interested in a soft Mommy Dom dynamic. I'm drawn to the caring, nurturing side of that relationship just as much as the dominant side.

I want someone who can make me feel safe, appreciated, and wanted while still having that confident energy I find so attractive. Someone who enjoys taking care of her good boy, offering reassurance, being affectionate, and guiding things in a way that feels natural for both of us. I love the idea of a woman who can tease me one minute and be incredibly sweet to me the next. A little playful authority mixed with plenty of warmth sounds wonderful to me.

More than anything, though, I want a genuine connection. I'd love for us to talk about our days, share our interests, laugh at stupid jokes, flirt, and occasionally end up having those late-night conversations where neither of us wants to say goodnight. I want to learn about you as a person, not just the dynamic we're interested in exploring. Communication, trust, mutual effort, and respecting each other's boundaries are important to me. I'd rather build something real at a comfortable pace than force a connection that isn't there.

I'm happy to start online and see where things go. Age isn't necessarily a dealbreaker if we click and want similar things. Whether you're into gaming, anime, or completely different hobbies, I'd love to hear about them. You don't have to share all my interests to get along with me!

So, if you're a sweet but confident woman who likes affectionate guys, enjoys receiving as many messages as she sends, and thinks having a slightly clingy good boy around sounds appealing, why not say hello?

Tell me a little about yourself, what you enjoy, or what being a soft Mommy Dom means to you. You can even start by telling me what your day has been like. I'm not always the best at coming up with questions, but I genuinely enjoy getting to know someone once we get talking!

Hopefully, your future favorite good boy is right here. I guess there's only one way to find out. ❤️

I’m looking for something long-term, ideally a partner and best friend, to share all the small and big things with... But open to things in-between, just let me know what you're looking for.

About me

• 34, white, 6ft, slim build, blue eyes, brown hair, generally clean-shaven and occasional glasses wearer.
• INFJ, Taurus (for those into that), and an ambivert... read: extroverted introvert!
• Left-handed, left-footed and left leaning politically.. (All the lefts?!)
• I work in tech and lead an IT team, own my place in London, and like to think I have my life together. So just looking to add to this...
• A bit geeky: PC and Switch 2 gaming (lightly), board games, Doctor Who, Marvel, The Boys, Star Wars, LOTR, sci-fi in general. Enthusiastic, but not hardcore about any of it.
• I try to stay active: badminton is my main thing, plus some running, the odd bit of football or tennis, other sports and I’m always up for trying something new...
• I bake more than I cook (sweet toothers unite!), but I enjoy both. I’m a foodie at heart and always happy to try new foods and restaurants.
• I rarely drink and don’t smoke, but I don’t mind if you do...
• Humour ranges from puns and dad jokes to pretty dark, with plenty of sarcasm. I’m generally playful and chill, but I know when to be serious and I’m up for the deeper conversations too.

There's plenty more to me... Feel free to ask and can save for convos!

About you

I'm not looking for anyone specifically, a good sense of humour, an open mind and emotional maturity go a long way. Race, religion and diet are all open. My only slight preference is someone slim to curvy who’s reasonably active.

Ideally looking for someone London or UK based, but open to the EU... I would be keen to close the gap sooner than later though...

Happy to swap pics too, since mutual attraction is a thing.

Hello!! Hope you’re having a good day!

About me: I’m a skinny guy, 5’9” with black hair and brown eyes. I’d say i’m fairly decent/attractive looking. I’m calm and Ive been told I have a nice sense of humor. Those close to me would say i’m a goofy guy. I don’t smoke or drink.

I’m looking for a genuine connection where we click. I’m located in Central NJ, so the closer the better. Someone who doesn’t take life super serious would be great, and i think i’m good at conversation so if you are too then thats a plus, though admittedly sometimes i do get busy but i’m generally always free to talk at night. Oh and I do have a preference for a heavy-set woman, just putting that out there.

Some of my hobbies/likes are: Movies/TV shows, (I like horror), i’m more of a homebody but i like getting out of the house occasionally, trying new foods, driving at night, hanging out with friends, Pokemon and a few other nerdy things.

I think thats about it, feel free to reach out if you feel we might click.

Hey, thanks for clicking on my post, I’m 29 and from England UK, I’m looking for something long term, consistent, and someone who’s willing to put in the effort to keep a spark ignited!

A bit about myself? I’d say I’m quite the nerdy/easy-going guy, like most men I enjoy gaming (nothing serious) just a way to socialise and chat with friends! I love anything horror related and with Halloween coming its my favourite time of year, for work I’m in telecommunications as a senior store manager so I like to think I have a stead head on my shoulders but I mean hey.. you be the judge? When I’m not working I tend to just chill honestly, whether that be attending to my incredibly unhealthy addiction to Lego (it’s bad haha) or maybe meeting up with some friends and grabbing some food or seeing a movie, I’m really not the partying type of man, actually I’m quite introverted and shy at start, but get to know me and I’m sure you’ll see the goofball side of me haha, I’m only childfree by choice, and not looking to change that

Honestly, I’m not too sure what to expect from this, just throwing myself out there and seeing what comes of it, distance isn’t too much of a big deal for me given I’d like to get out and about from the UK, older or younger also fine, I just want to meet someone who’s genuine, kind, open and honest, and who isn’t going to just ghost after a few days 😅😅

I’ve rambled a lot here and don’t wanna give too much away, if any of this interests you then ping me a message and I look forwards to hearing from you 😊😊

Hello there! Thanks for reading my post :)

A little about myself. I love traveling, hiking, camping, movies, baking (bread and bundt cakes), reading and exercising. The traveling and health conscious aspects are very important to me as I want a partner with the same wanderlust and desire to be around for the ling term that drives me. Physically I am 6'5" around 260lbs, broad shoulders. Blue eyes and blonde hair, and Scandinavian skin that only ever seems to burn, rarely tan. I am employed working in Healthcare. Live on my own, in my own place. I have 1 cat (molly).

In a relationship I am looking for someone around my age or older (23-35). I am a caregiver who enjoys learning my partners likes/dislikes and quirks. If we develop our partnership through time and trust, you will be my one and only and will be completely cared for as that trust is something special to me. So if you are someone who needs affection and/or a steady hand to lean on in your life... hit me up.

What I am looking for in my partner, physically I am attracted to women who priotize their health. Someone fit and looking to be around for the long haul. I am looking for a long-term, monogamous relationship. Location-wise I am completely open as I can travel pretty much anywhere with my job and am not deadset on staying where I am. I am Agnostic, but am understanding and respecting of others values and beliefs. Apolitical leaning as I don't particularly put much stock in the moment.

If you got this far, thanks! Please send your asl and your best travel memory and I look forward to getting to know you!

I am at work, but will respond as able :)

Hello. How’s things stranger? All good hopefully. Just here keeping cosy on a bright and breezy one with a cuppa or two. Curious if anyone else is doing likewise and fancies a wee chat? If that’s you, then this is me…

38, but look half that, so it doesn’t really count. That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it. Location: Ireland, northwest, accent to boot. Height: 5’7, if I’m wearing shoes with particularly thick soles that day. Weight: 60kg, exercise just enough to mask my tuna melt addiction. Find cooking relaxing, like a form of hungry meditation. Hair: Brown. Eyes: Blue. Skin: White. Basically Irish looking. Obviously we can trade pics once we’re both convinced we’re not talking to a lunatic. Don’t smoke. Occasionally drink. No piercings. No tattoos, but I like yours. Taurus. Oversharer.

Interests & stuff - Film: Noir, Sci-fi, Fantasy, World Cinema, Crime, Thriller, Romance, Horror, and the occasional animation. Books at bedtime: Non Fiction, Historical. Music to bring the volume of the real world down: Lofi, Classical. Prone to a hike, might as well camp. Won’t just let you win at Mario Kart. Naps.

You - Any age, any height, any timezone, any whatever, you do you. Sincerely. If you’re a low drama person and don’t take life too seriously, then we’ll probably get along. Maybe as an icebreaker you can tell me your no1 bucket list destination. Hokkaido for me at the moment. So yep, that’s me. Hope that wasn’t too rambley. Maybe speak soon. Have a good one regardless. Ok. Bye :)

Good morning, here’s just a little about me:

I’m 6’2 or 189 cm tall, hazel eyes, active - down 25 lbs since January, bald, 1 tattoo, catholic, 2 dogs, 1 cat, and in the military stationed in Germany. I enjoy cooking and baking, spending time with family and friends when I have the chance and I’m always happy to go on a road trip to anywhere.

Not a big movie or tv show person, but I find myself more willing to do things if it’s something my partner enjoys. I do play video games but not as frequently as when I was younger, I think I can still beat you in a game of Mario Kart though.

I’m not political, but I am open to talking about things as they come up. I do drink, not to get drunk, and would like to find someone that also enjoys just having a couple while we watch the sunsets or spending quality time together.

It may be a deal breaker but I have been divorced, my ex cheated on me while I was deployed many years ago. I have been to therapy and I continue to work on myself through working out, therapy or by writing.

Open to voice and video calls as we connect more and trading pics as attraction is important in all of this.

Preferences: 26+, open to pets, willing to work or we could discuss a stay-at-home situation, non-smoking, open to traveling, communicative, good sense of humor, respectful, active and affectionate.

I'm a 31-year-old Kenyan man, permanently childfree by choice, and looking for a woman who knows that motherhood isn't part of her life plan. Not a “maybe someday,” not a “let's see what happens.” We're adults; let's not build a relationship around the hope that one of us will eventually change their mind. 😂

A little about me: I'm 5'5, look good, smell even better, and come with a personality that hopefully makes up for those few inches I missed out on. 😂

I'm a petrolhead, road-trip addict, and adrenaline junkie. Give me a winding road, a spontaneous trip, an outdoor adventure, or anything that gets the heart racing, and I'm probably already figuring out the logistics. I love exploring new places, cooking, good music, football, and conversations that start with nonsense and somehow end at 2 a.m. discussing life.

I work in human rights, so life can get pretty serious during the week. Outside work, though, I'm a proper lover boy. I love love. The affection, the banter, the random check-ins, the physical touch, the thoughtful little gestures, and having someone who makes even the most ordinary Tuesday feel a little less ordinary. I'm a sucker for genuine romance, and I'm not going to pretend to be emotionally unavailable just to look cool on the internet. 😂

I'm also working towards building a life on my own terms, travelling more, exploring Africa by road, and eventually escaping the traditional 9–5. I'd love someone who has her own dreams but is excited about the possibility of building something beautiful together.

What am I looking for?

A woman who is confidently childfree, emotionally available, affectionate, playful, adventurous, and comfortable being herself. Someone who can banter, communicate like an adult, and wants a genuine partnership without either of us losing our individuality.

Age isn't necessarily a dealbreaker for me. Since I don't want children, I'm not approaching dating with a biological clock or a rigid age checklist. Compatibility, emotional maturity, attraction, and being on the same page about our future matter far more.

Race? No preference. I'm open to meeting my person wherever she happens to be.

And yes, I'm open to long-distance relationships. I'm not expecting anyone to relocate for a stranger on Reddit, but if we genuinely click, there needs to be intentional effort from both sides. Seeing each other at least once every three months is the minimum I'd want us to work towards. I enjoy texting, but I'm not trying to celebrate our second anniversary with a video call and a screenshot of a flight we never booked. 😂

I'm not here to collect pen pals, rush into a relationship, or convince someone to be childfree. I'd rather meet someone who already knows what she wants and is excited about the possibility of finding it in another person.

If you're childfree, affectionate, have a sense of adventure, and believe love should feel like friendship, romance, attraction, and a little bit of madness rolled into one, we might get along

And if you think you can out-romantic a self-proclaimed lover boy, I'm willing to hear your case. 😂

Hello there -

A bit about me:

• 6'2", bald & bearded, athletic, fit & outdoorsy, ethnically Indian. NMNK.
• Lover of: cool, sunny, dry temps; dry humor; philomathy; British TV shows, authentic Baklava w/ top tier coffee
• Hobbies: playing competitive tennis; cycling; cooking; FIRE; blowing my budget at Costco; traveling w/ culture immersion; volunteering to improve lives of less well off people & rescue animals
• Non-smoker and super rare drinker
• Plant based (and seek someone similar or vegetarian at a minimum. This is an ethical component for me)

Monogamous, and looking for a relationship where we grow and support each other through life's highs and lows.

Not looking for someone to 'check all the boxes'. Instead, I place a greater emphasis on shared values and working together on goals towards a fulfilling life (maybe this is old school romance? If it still has a place in today's world!?)

For the right person, I am open to relocating to select places. DM if interested. Good luck!

Hey. My name is Julian and I am here, like all of us, to search for a relationship. My first, to be exact.

About me: 32, born and raised in Germany, 1,78m tall (5'10) and chubby. Brown hair, beard, glasses, blue eyes.
Shy, introverted, big time overthinker. Mostly sarcastic, kind most of the time, weird mix of dark and juvenile humour. Depressed but working on it (I don't expect you to be my therapist). I don't drink, smoke or do any sort of drugs. I'm a winter person (with a winter birthday) and don't like summer/heat. Non-vegetarian/vegan, atheist and left-leaning politically.
I speak English and German, might learn other languages in the future. I'm a trained chemist with a bsc in chemistry. Some would call that educated. Know how to drive a car and motorbike. I go to the gym to work on my weight and currently try to do that more regularly after a big motivation crisis.
I only have a few, mostly homebody, hobbies. Gaming (mostly Singleplayer), reading (nowadays mostly fantasy) and watching streams/videos. Feel free to suggest me a nice hobby I would maybe enjoy, I have been searching for one for a while. My taste of music is mostly Rock/Alternative Rock. Haven't travelled in a while but would want to. Especially to Japan, Canada and Northern Europe.
I do like cats a lot. Grew up in a dog family but switched to cats now.
Most important is that I am childfree. I don't have or want children. I do have my reasons and you can ask about them if you want to. Feel also free to ask about my red flags or anything you want to know about that I forgot.

Who I am searching for: Most important point here is that she should also not have or want children ever. Age range of 25 to 35. Height doesn't matter to me. Nationality doesn't matter as well, I'm fine with any. Religion doesn't matter as long as you don't try to convert me. I do think that physical attraction matters (and I have clear preferences) and I would want to see/exchange pictures fairly early to see if we would fit. Someone in or around Germany or wanting to move here would be nice. I currently don't plan to move to another country. Other than that I don't have anything else that is needed. Just come as you are but please don't come with spiders. I have arachnophobia.
I do, however, imagine this relationship to not be codependent. We should still be individuals doing our own things, partners that support each other in whatever we do. For that reason I also don't want someone that is too clingy.

Now if you have any more questions, want to get to know me or think you know someone that would, feel free to write me or share my post. If you do decide to write me, please do so with more than a "hi" or similar. At least give me some basic information. I hope you have a great day.

Hi everyone,

​I’m a 36-year-old living in Germany but not native.

​I love staying active and exploring. On weekends or in my free time, you'll usually find me:

- ​hiking outdoors

- ​Checking out local events

- ​Relaxing at home with video games or a good movie

​I'm hoping to find a partner or girlfriend someone kind, emotionally mature, and looking for something genuine. I believe the best relationships start with great conversations, shared laughs, and mutual respect, whether that's starting online or meeting up around Germany.

​If any of this sounds like what you're looking for, drop me a message and introduce yourself! Tell me a bit about who you are, your hobbies, or your favorite movie.

​Looking forward to starting a good conversation!

Hey!

I’m a 27-year-old software engineer from Bangalore. I’ve spent most of my twenties working, figuring life out, and trying to become a better version of myself. Now, I feel it would be nice to have someone to share this weird little life with.

A little about me:

• Staunch atheist, rational-minded, and always curious about the world.
• Into astronomy, science, philosophy, politics, and random nerdy conversations.
• Gym and boxing are part of my routine.
• Love the idea of travelling, exploring new places, and trying new things.

A few things about my outlook on life:

• Childfree by choice: I don’t want children and would rather spend my life travelling and building experiences with my partner. I also don't want someone I love to go through pregnancy just because society expects us to have children. I’m looking for someone who genuinely shares this choice.
• Marriage: I’d prefer a simple registered marriage rather than an elaborate wedding.
• Caste and religion: I don’t believe caste should matter in a relationship. I’m an atheist, and I’d appreciate someone who respects that and has an open mind.

What I’m looking for:

Someone who is independent, kind, curious about the world, and comfortable being herself. Someone who enjoys both silly conversations and deep discussions, communicates honestly, and can disagree without turning everything into an argument.

It would be great to find someone who wants to travel, explore life, and grow together while maintaining our own identities. I’m not looking for perfection or someone who agrees with me on everything, just mutual respect, compatibility, and a genuine connection.

Ultimately, I’d love to find a best friend and partner with whom life feels a little more fun, meaningful, and less lonely.

If this resonates with you, feel free to DM me. We can start with a conversation and see where it goes.

Hello hello!👋

I guess I'll start of with hobbies? I like video games(rpgs, strategy, coop and more! Also been nerding out on bg3 again lately, it's amazing!), board games, reading(novels(bit slow on this one), comics), miniature painting, walks and I guess movies/tv shows count I hope heh, somehow musicals have gotten on my radar too, oh and a bunch of youtube apparently. You have any recommendations for any of those?

I'm looking for someone nice and understanding and all that. I have autism and depression(meds are helping a bit) so if that too much then I understand, also you can ask me about those things too no problem!

Being able to just hangout in a video chat I find very cozy and relaxing, we could also watch something or maybe play your favorite game!

I hope this catches your interest! Looks can be important/fun so we can trade pics immediately if you want. Either way, I hope you have a nice day!

I'm a child-free man and I've realised over time that I feel most fulfilled in a relationship when I'm taking the lead and looking after my partner, using my experience and confidence to provide protection, reassurance, and guidance, helping her to feel safe and secure. It's a dynamic where we have different but complementary roles - traditional in many respects, but not all. If this sounds appealing, please read on.

*I sometimes get trolling in the comments when posting on this sub from people who don't like the kind of relationship I'm describing. It always baffles me that people think they have the right to impose their views on other people and attack and try to bully people they disagree with. It won't work, and all it really achieves is getting my post more attention due to the way the algorithms work. The relationship dynamic I'm describing is a loving, consensual one between adults who are free to choose the kind of relationship they want. I'm being very up front about it and I'm not forcing it on anyone. I get more positive responses in DMs than negative responses in the comments, so there clearly are plenty of women on the sub looking for the same thing. Please respect the fact that different people have different views and preferences, and consenting adults are capable of making their own choices.*

About Me

I’m single with no kids (obviously), and I’ve never been married. You won't be surprised to hear that I've had relationships before, but I've also spent long periods single, partly because I’ve been focused on other things in life, and partly because I realised a long time ago that I'm much happier single than in the wrong relationship. But I still dream of meeting the right person for the long term, and over the years I've developed a much better understanding of who I am and what I'm looking for. I find dating apps awful, and so I figured Reddit was worth a shot.

I’m 6 ft (1.84 m) tall, around 170 lbs (78 kg), slim, and in good shape, with blue eyes and dark brown hair. I’d like to think that I'm intelligent, well-educated, and kind. I’m honest and genuine, and I value integrity and a sense of right and wrong. I have a good job and live alone in a house that I own, and I have a great group of friends. I think physical attraction is a factor for most people, but it's also entirely subjective, so I'm happy to swap photos fairly early on so you can judge for yourself.

Fitness is important to me and I love running and spending time outdoors walking in the hills and camping. I don’t smoke, I very rarely drink, and I'm generally in bed by 10pm. I'll happily spend weekends wandering around old castles or exploring National Trust properties. I also love quiet nights in with a book or a film, board games (including chess), and occasional trips to the theatre, live music, or comedy. I’m someone who tends to have a small number of close friends rather than being part of large groups.

As I said above, I really enjoy taking the lead in a relationship - but this is leadership as a responsibility. I tend to work well with someone who can be anxious or over-think at times, because I enjoy making decisions and guiding someone, and because I understand the importance of patience and trust. When we reach the point where you trust me to look after you and to take some of your worries off your shoulders, it can allow the hyper-vigilant part of your mind to switch off, letting you truly relax and feel safe. Being trusted by my partner to play that role in her life is enormously rewarding for me.

I'm not religious, but I don't mind if you are, as long as our values match. I don't really fit a political category, because my views vary on different topics. But if you're very extreme in any direction, we're probably not a good match.

Who I’m Looking For

I’m looking for a woman who is single, never married, and child-free. Someone who is intelligent, articulate, caring, sweet, genuine, and loving. I tend to find shyness and introversion attractive, partly because I love the sensitivity that goes with it. I'm not going to list a specific age range, because I think wherever I drew the line would be arbitrary (but adults only, obviously). What matters more than any specific age is the connection we have, our shared values and interests, and the dynamic we both want.

I want to meet someone I can talk to about everything and anything, and who dreams of looking after her partner in her own devoted way. Someone who loves books and values education and intellectual curiosity. Someone who feels completely unsuited to modern swipe culture and the disposable attitude to dating. Perhaps you dream of living in a Jane Austen novel, or you just want to meet a man with old-fashioned values, with whom you can take time to feel truly comfortable and be your whole self, without feeling pressured to rush things.

I'm looking for someone who enjoys a mix of time outdoors or with other people and quiet time at home with a book, a series, or a film. I'd like my partner to share my active lifestyle and for us both to keep ourselves in decent shape (but that doesn't mean you need to be a gym nut).

I’m looking for someone who takes dating and relationships seriously and who has never been into casual encounters. I don't mind if you’re inexperienced or if you’re not sure what you’re looking for - I'm happy to gently take the lead and guide you as we slowly get to know each other.

I’m happy to hear from people outside the UK, but it needs to be realistic for us to see each other regularly and I'm not in a position to travel much at the moment, so you’d need to be comfortable visiting me regularly and relocating here in due course.

Say Hello

I'm happy to chat with anyone who's curious - there'll never be any pressure from me. But if we want to move beyond friendship, I’ll want to exchange SFW photos, then voice/video call, and then meet - I'm not looking for an online relationship. I will never send or ask for NSFW photos. I need an emotional and intellectual connection with someone before we move beyond friendship. I really hope you're the same.

If you think we might get on, message me with your age and location :)
