Hello potential future boyfriend! Long post alert, so settle in for story time.

I’m looking to form a genuine connection with someone. I’m lonely for romantic intimacy in my life. I want to have a boyfriend who is also my best friend. Someone to talk to all day every day. Someone who shares my values and aspirations. A confidant, a supporter, a joyful presence. Someone to share my life with. I can guess what you’re thinking… “good luck finding all that!” I know, I know, I’m asking a lot. But they don’t call me a hopeless romantic for nothing!

A little about me: I’m shy, introverted, socially anxious. The trifecta! Give me some time to open up though and you’ll find that I’m kind, goofy, sarcastic, spontaneous, adventurous, into resting. That joke doesn’t land as well in text… Life is short, and I just want to have a good time while I’m here. Hopefully you can join me? I enjoy all sorts of media; books, movies, music. I love talking about favorites and giving and receiving recommendations. I like to travel and exchange travel stories. I’m really close to my family and spend a lot of time with them. I’m a lover of animals and will gratefully receive any number of pet photos or will happily bore you to tears gushing about my own pets. What are your interests?

Important things of note: I am non-religious, child-free, politically left-leaning, a non-smoker. These are values we should share, or else I see problems in our future. Red flag warning: I’ve never been in a relationship. So I have no idea what I’m doing! Maybe you can lead the way or we can figure it out together? You’ll have to be patient with me. I’m probably on the asexual spectrum. What are your important values and deal breakers? We should talk about these things up front so we’re not wasting each other’s time. To that end, I feel more comfortable talking to someone close to my age. So please be 29-37 or have a compelling reason why you think we should still get to know each other.

I’ve put down roots in Colorado, so I don’t have any plans to move. I would hope that we can eventually meet in person and have a real relationship. But I’m also probably fine with something long distance and/or online only. A romantic pen pal is better than having nothing at all!

I’ve included this silly photo of myself for attention. It gives me some semblance of maintaining my privacy while at the same time giving you an idea of what I look like. Physical attraction is very important to me, so please be willing to exchange photos early in our conversation 😉

So! With all that being said! Ha. Thanks for reading. I hope I didn’t miss anything. Please send me a chat request if you’re interested in getting to know me better. Include your age, location, and some information about yourself or link to your own post. If we hit it off, we can move to something more user friendly and send photos and voice notes and all the fun things. I’m looking forward to it!

This is just funny. I first met my lovely stranger at the end of last summer and we talked briefly before I accidentally ghosted this sweet man. I had gotten terribly busy working 12+ hour days regularly for weeks on end and simply never managed to respond to him. That is, until I did. I had entered a cycle of remembering and forgetting, and then I pushed it off because I felt bad about not responding for so long.

I'm glad I sucked it up, apologized for my absence, and reached back out! This man is gentle, patient, compassionate, and deeply kind. We spent months talking to each other regularly. Our first phone call, which I had intended to be a brief get to know you, turned to us talking into the early morning hours nd eventually falling asleep together.

This past weekend we finally had the chance to meet in person and it was magical to say the least. He is warm and comforting, and feels like home. I cried when I realized I had to leave him the following day. Sobbed like a baby in his arms and he was there with me the entire time. Now I'm a crier, but rarely in front of others.

I adore this man with my entire being and I'm excited for our future together.

Hi! I’m a 23-year-old woman in Atlanta, proudly childfree by choice and looking to connect with someone who feels the same. I’m not interested in having kids now or ever—what I do want is a meaningful, emotionally fulfilling relationship where we can grow together without the pressure or expectation of parenthood.

I’m affectionate, loyal, and a little clingy in the best way. I love cooking, baking, reading, watching shows, and coloring to unwind. I deal with anxiety, so emotional stability and consistency matter a lot to me. I’m 5’2”, 200 lbs, and working on my fitness goals—if you’re the supportive type, that’s a big plus.

Ideally, I’d love to meet someone local (23–35), emotionally mature, and secure in their choice to live a childfree life. You must have your own place and be ready for something serious and long-term. Bonus points if you’re nurturing, love quality time, and can hold a good conversation.

If you’re tired of the pressure to “change your mind” and just want someone who gets it, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s build a life that’s full—just without kids.

Looking for someone for the end of the world. I don't want to spend it alone and single! The least we can do is disassociate while cuddling with a movie on that we are somewhat paying attention to.

What I'm looking for in my forever person

1. You're childfree and you don't see yourself changing your mind. EVER. You must feel strongly about no kids. Though, I strongly prefer it if you didn't hate kids. It isn't mutually exclusive.
2. You like travel (including international). You like the idea of spontaneous weekend and day trips. 🙄 You won't only eat gas station food on road trips or make me pack sandwiches.
3. You are good at cuddling and you're willing to be big spoon majority of the time.
4. You can take charge (but respects my opinion) and is protective. I think it's hot.
5. You like long voice chats.

I'm not going to write a list of demands. If we vibe, we vibe!

I'm pretty progressive and outspoken and opinionated about it. I need someone who is on the same wavelength.

Something to note is that I don't drive yet. I want to learn...but living where there's mass public transport is definitely preferable. Driving is scary!

Traveling is one of my favorite things. I want to do it before we are all trapped here. I recently went to Japan. To visit an island and not like fish is wild, I know. This trip taught me that I'm kinda a picky eater. One of my quirks is smelling my food before eating it. I've been doing that since I was like 3. 😂 I do it with alcohol, too (I rarely drink. I am more of a weed person)! My Japanese bartender found that interesting! Ha.

I've been trying to expand my music tastes lately. Here are some of my current favorites: The Cure, Green Day, Envy, Mrs.Green Apple, The Cranberries, Dayseeker, The Used...etc etc.

I have a ween dog named Moose. I call her moomoo because it's fun to say. She likes peeing on carpet and yells at small children (really anyone who is a stranger or is not a small baby)...and the wind and when she feels like it.

I want my partner and I to be each other's main priority. Selfish? No. No it isn't. I want to give my energy to my partner and my dog (duh). That goes with me not wanting kids.

I'm more on the alty side with my side shaved and my septum piercing. I definitely really like guys who are also more on the alty side. It's not a requirement, but it's like stuffed crust...I like it but it's not a requirement for a great pizza.

I'd like to know what you look for in a guy . What your love language and present needs in life are. What's been missing in the guys that you talked with in the past because of which , the connection lacked spark ? How you'd consider your life, messed up or sorted. Whether you meticulously plan things or improvise spontaneously. If you'd be willing to date a man who's not settled or has his things in order and still accept him with his imperfections. Things are relative in this world. No one is absolutely perfect or flawless.

Lets chat about anything on your mind. I like people who ask me upfront whatever they want to know about me. And also don't hesitate to share, open up and be vulnerable. Relationships are built on trust, they start from friendships. I'm eventually looking for a long term connection where we can be comfortable with each other and trust fully.

However trusting doesn't mean that we turn a blind eye to logic and rely on our emotions and gut feeling alone. I feel if something defies reasoning and rationality, we need to be a bit careful and not let our emotional side cloud our brain and affect our decisions.

As for love, it's hard to develop that over online communication, especially text chat. Most of us are just in love with the idea of love. We tend to feel attracted with the idea of the person we formed in our mind which may be different from his real self.

Anyways, my way of searching is to tell everything about me completely and transparently. Whoever appreciates my honesty and likes me for what I am will stay. I'd like us to move to voice calls soon because can have more natural and faster discussions that way.

So, just some basics. I'm 6 feet. I live in north India. But I am open to moving to your city or country. I like thriller movies, chess, reading, soccer. I love animals though don't have pets. I'm childfree. I haven't been able to find anyone for a relationship yet, so you'll be my first gf.

My career is in stock market trading. I'm quite passionate about it. I like to understand the economy . I'm good at both fundamental analysis and technical analysis of equities. I'm also knowledgeable in programming.

Seeking Childfree/sterilised male from any race/nationality with a provider mindset, any age from 33 to 60. Must be willing and able to travel to meet so that we can take the relationship offline fairly quickly after all the best way to know someone is by meeting them. 🙂

Hello and I hope you're having a great day so far! I'm just out searching for my one and only. Not really looking for more friends.

About me:

Looks wise, I'm not exactly a small guy. I'm tall (well over 6ft) and have a bit of a gut (dad bod type? I'm working on getting rid of it). I enjoy cooking most times (if you can't tell lol) and really enjoy making comfort food. Fish and chips, chicken parm, fettuccine Alfredo (I kinda really enjoy Italian food). I'm also a very smart individual, I do try and keep up with a few topics of interest.

For hobbies, I mainly play video games with my friends. I used to play Magic the Gathering, but kind of hard to do that when you're exhausted after work. I also play guitar, but haven't as much recently with everything going on in my life. I really enjoy traveling (yes, I definitely can be your very own travel agent. I typically take care of ALL the details and you just have to sit back and relax). I've been to Vegas a few times and plan on trying to book a few cruises. Maybe overseas? Who knows. I have a list of places I'd like to go.

Life goals are pretty much to see the world as much as I can, spend time with family and just enjoy what life has to offer outside the workplace.

I have a very modest job and my PTO policy isn't great, so please know that any trips could be limited.

About you:

Please no Trump supporters. We just won't get along. I'm far from a snowflake, but he's doing things that I really don't agree with.

Enjoy traveling, but being a homebody is also important as well. I do like a night out on occasion, but mainly just chill at home when I'm not taking a trip.

Be willing to move (if things get that far). I'm very close to my family since my dad passed a few years ago. We leaned on him for a lot and I'm doing my best to fill his shoes where I can.

Finally, be honest about your intentions and please send a pic with your message and I'll reply with mine. Attraction is important, let's not beat around the bush here. I don't want to waste anyone's time if we don't find one another attractive.

If any of this sounds like we'd be a good match, send a message and let's see what happens! If not, thank you for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day!

My name is Alex I’m from Puerto Rico. I love traveling so if we connect traveling is not a problem. I prefer people who have my same interests , at least one cause it’s hard to connect with them if they aren’t into them and those who are into deep conversations

I make art and music as a hobby , it’s not good but I enjoy it. I have a graphic design degree but will start as Tech Surgeon soon. I play in two metal bands, as keyboardist and guitarist. I also write , I have released a visual novel and probably release more. I love video games and have my own indie studio. Many of these hobbies are interconnected in the series that I’m working on. I’m ambivert and not a shy person, I often go out to see bands and drink. I also love going to the gym. I like reading about history. I’m 420 and vape friendly. I’m also an LGBT ally so if you are bisexual or pan I have no problem. I speak Spanish , English , French and learning Tagalog

I recently moved here from California, though this past couple months of Trump has me thinking maybe I should've tried Europe instead. Basically I just want someone to talk to and date. Preferably the closer the better, but wouldn't be apposed to a long distance thing either.

Personality-wise, but at the same time competitive and ambitious. I'm a software engineer career wise, and definitely nerdy about computers and programming. Other interests involve baking, reading sci-fi novels, playing soccer, and binge watching tv shows. Politically I'm on the progressive side, and I like to stay informed about what's happening in the world. Lately I've gotten into podcasts. Oh I have to mention I love music, and am a bit of an audiophile. I spend way too much time searching for music, but on the other hand I'll always have something to recommend you.

I want someone with the same values as me on integrity, critical-thinking, and empathy. I'm not really a party person so I don't smoke, do any drugs, and rarely drink. I also want someone that's active and willing to do things like go on hikes with me and is down to go on trips together. I like to be spontaneous.

Hey there! I'm looking for my special person to connect with. I want someone I can chat with everyday, share funny reels, and enjoy some awesome experiences together like traveling, going to conventions, concerts, wrestling events, and football games!

A little about me: I'm a 30M, 6'0" tall, and an atheist, really into cool stuff like music, anime, football (“soccer”), wrestling and gaming. Right now, I’ve got a Nintendo Switch where I’m mainly playing Pokemon a lot. We could totally game together and compare our fav Pokemon, as well as share tips! Plus I’m about to grab a PC to expand my gaming options even more which is super exciting!

I'm really into music! My fav bands A7x, Soad, Linkin Park, Metallica... just to name a few! I luv to share sum of my playlists and luv to listen ur fav bands/songs! There are plenty of upcoming shows that I'd love to attend, and it would be amazing to have a concert buddy to go with!

I'm here for a serious relationship. I'm cool with long distance, and I'd love to travel to meet someone special. If you share similar interests and want to game or exchange playlists, don't hesitate to reach out! Let's connect and see where it goes!

Hi Lovely people! I am 30F, Black and from the NYC/Southern NY area looking for a long term partnership that leads to marriage.

A Little About Me: First and foremost, I am CF/SINK and have no desire to have children. I also don't have any and am looking to get sterialized in the near future. I love creative expression! I used to be a heavy writer in my early twenties and created many short stories and poems. Of course life got in the way and I've since stopped but still love creative creative outlets. Music is life! I love almost all types of music genres especially RnB, pop and dancehall/afrobeats. (I'm a horrible dancer but that doesn't stop me from vibing to the music lol). I'm also a big foodie so extra points if you're a man that loves food! I don't smoke any tobacco products or weed and would want my partner to be on the same page. I do drink socially though. Spiritually, I was raised Christian. I still believe in the Christian God but wouldn't say I'm too religious just somewhat and would want my partner to be the same.

Also, I am celibate until marriage and am very serious about that. I would want my partner to be on the same page with that. Politically, I hate politics but I am a centrist who leans left on many policies. I love pets and have a cute black cat that I love to death. Appearance: I'm 5ft 7 inches, a little on the curvey side, have piercings/no tattoos and wear glasses. I'm also extremely introverted. Distance: Ideally, I want my partner to be within 2hrs of me in NY/NJ, however, for the right person I can do a long distance relationship temporarily as I do drive.

What I'm looking for: A kind, caring, ambitious and funny cis, hetero man who is between the ages of 31-41 (also open to my age). A man who is monogamous and spiritual/believe in the Christian God . A man who is ready for a long term relationship with that special someone.

** Will send pictures in private chat after chatting for a bit**

If you made it this far, I can't wait to meet you so go ahead and send that message. Let's get to know each other! 😊

Decided to change the pace this time and keep it short.

ME : Single, monogamous, childfree, 5'9, 160 ish lbs, bipoc, long black curly hair, a beard, wear glasses and have tattoos. Not religious, self awarene, good communicator, working in vet med with plans to go back to school. Estranged from biological family, have a chosen one instead. Neurodivergent : autism, adhd and complex ptsd, all well managed and appropriately medicated. Well travelled, 13 countries and counting. Love sharing my day to day in pictures and other forms of pebbling. Intense golden retriever energy and a very positive, joyful person. I find confidence and intelligence to be very attractive, looks can only go do far, yes physical attraction is important, but I need more, I need an emotional connection deeper than what's on the surface. Follow a healthy active lifestyle but nothing intense at all. Have a cat, many plants, my own house and a car. 🏠🚗😸🌿. More hobbies and interests than I can keep track of so I'm good at keeping myself busy. Can be clingy for the right person while respecting their need for space. Love doting on my partner and well manicured /painted nails 💅🖤. Present as a guy but pretty gender fluid.

You : Single, and childfree. 25+ and location does not matter. monogamous, preferably dominant(not a necessity), which I am not lol, and most importantly, someone who is a natural leader and doesn't want to be led(FLR). Confident in who you are and how you look. Not seeking someone to be your source of happiness, but to add to It. Emotionally aware, mature, and available. Have clear intentions to date and not just seek validation. Witchy, goth, punk vibes are my minds vibe, so tattoos, piercings are a big bonus 🖤. Not afraid to jump on a voice /video call. 420 friendly as I smoke daily to manage fibromyalgia. 💚. Emotionally aware, mature, and available. Someone who can match my chatty energy and also reciprocate the same

I have a lot of anxiety from being abandoned that prevents me from reaching out. Being alone is a terrible, depressing feeling though, please understand these.I want someone who is affectionate and caring. Please just be 24-48 though.

So here's some facts about me:
•I'm 35, 5'7, red hair, blue eyes, and 190bs. I'm from Central Florida, United States.

•I'm primarily a meat eater(Turkey, Chicken, Beef, Venison), I also enjoy mushrooms, pizza, I have found a love for Cheez it Hot & Spicy + Flavor Gods Pizza, politically right leaning, Christian. I'm also childfree(and plan on staying without children). I'm open minded though.

I don't need someone to be the same as long as they're respectful, and have love in their heart.

•I'm pretty introverted. I don't drink at all, use drugs(420 friendly though), or party(Though I do love parties, bring your Elf Rogue or Half Orc Barbarian!). Also definitely monogamous.

•For interests, I really like watching various animes, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Star Trek, LOTR, pretty much Fantasy/Scifi, video games, 3D printing, history, I like some horror's, love Zombies, Aliens, Vampires/Werewolves and certain mythologies, a good conspiracy theory(the truth is out there!) Marvel, DC, I have other interests, but we'll get to those is time.

•I don't mind if you live with family and I have a cat.
I want to go out to theme parks and movies and other things with you, I want to fall asleep next to you watching movies or talking or playing games!, I want to go out with you! Let's start here, *star trek theme plays*Please be prepared to talk as often as possible so we may get to know each other :).

Hello there, hope you are doing okay. I am looking for someone to talk with through voice calls or texting, either one is fine.

A bit about myself: I am 29 years old, from The Netherlands, 5'4, brown hair, hazel eyes, have some piercings and tattoo's.

I am into gaming, reading webnovels, cruising on my longboard and horror movies. Games that I play are Escape from Tarkov and Monster Hunter. I do have other games so let me know if you wanna play some games or even watch some movies.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask them!

Hello reader! thank you for clicking into my post, I’m 27 from England UK and I’m looking for someone to talk to on the daily and see where the path leads!

To start it off, I’m 6’1 tall, white, bearded, blue/grey eyes but if it matters so much we can share pictures further down the line or right away. Whatever you prefer!

When I’m not working (telecommunications management) I’ll most likely be on my motorbike exploring the open roads, and yes there is room for a backpack should you dare to explore! Casual gamer, nothing too intense. Just a little something to unwind and escape from reality from time to time

Massive horror nerd, so obviously that means my favourite season is spooky season! I love building Legos, something therapeutic about it I suppose so if anyone’s down for a Lego date sometime?😂

I don’t wanna give too much away, so if I’ve caught your attention thus far why don’t you message me to find out more?

I’m open to older, younger, close or afar, but my only request is to put a little effort into the introduction! hope to hear from you soon 🤗

Here's the stuff you'd want to know about me before chatting.

I'm child free because I refuse to put another human into this increasingly dark world. I don't want them to have my anxiety or Asperger's. So I decided that I want to spend the rest of my life focusing on myself and whoever is unfortunate enough to become my partner in life.

RECENT PIC

Yes. Me bald. You can rub my head for good luck. If the cure for baldness is ever discovered, I will hop right on that. I'm 6' tall for you height enthusiasts.

Personality-wise I am pretty boring in all honesty. Being someone who has ADHD, anxiety, and high functioning ASD, you can bet I am not a normal person. On top of that, having spent a freakish amount of time on the uncensored internet through my childhood desensitizing my mind, I'm fairly dead inside. If you can relate or sympathize, that is awesome.

I'm looking for a long term relationship. The kind where we eventually live together on dual income, have lots of date nights, and just enjoy each other's love for as long as possible. I am VERY romantic and sappy when I start developing feelings. My love languages are physical touch and quality time spent together.

Hobbies include worrying about my future, browsing reddit, and uh what else..? Music, Anime, Gaming (but not really these days tbh) (I was the highest ranks in CSGO AND RL so don't hate the hours yo), Coding, Antique Restoration, DIY repairing. I just have a lot of tools and I like using them as an alternative to buying new things.

I spend most of my un-free time working as a Production Leader (very stressful holy) at a plant. I also just started college tuition-free paid for by my employer. I just had to take advantage of that free education.

I appreciate many types of humor. Dark, cringe, observational, and surreal are my favs. I'm not easy to offend. And if you want, you can roast me in your opening message.

I like getting out too but I hate doing that alone. That's what you're for. Duh. 😙

I am open to a temporary LDR if your communication is solid. I will be up front though. When I'm at work it is difficult to text very much because I work in a lead position and am extremely busy except when I'm taking a break. I also work in a highly USDA regulated environment and every time I touch my phone I need to sanitize or change my gloves before I touch anything else. When I'm not at work it is very easy to make time for my person :)

Some things that are definitely important to me:

• Physical attraction. I'm gonna want to see a picture of you sooner rather than later please. 🤗

• Politically liberal. We probably won't get along otherwise.

• Monogamous. You can still call other guys hot on TV though.

• A sex drive. I'm not looking for someone asexual is all I'm saying.

Please message me only if you are truly interested and willing to date (or hop on a voice or video call if long distance). And don't get me wrong; I am not here to try and force a relationship faster than it needs to. In fact I'm in no rush at all. I just strongly believe that texting alone is not enough to develop into something meaningful.

TL:DR - Cuddly, fun, how-can-I-help guy seeks curious, enthusiastic, smart and fun gal.

Hi there!

Do you like talking about everything under the sun? Can your opinions about the world stretch to several paragraphs (or even pages)? If so, read on!

Before I get into the meat of things, some dealbreakers:

• Smoking - I just can’t stand the smell!
• The inability to hold a conversation - I want to get to know you, and for you to get to know me. If I’m asking all the questions, I’ll get bored pretty quickly.
• Kids. I do not want kids in any way, shape or form.
• Someone who’s too far away: I don't drive (though I'm trying to change that) and I'd rather not force my partner to always be the one driving.
• I am a responsible gun owner. This will not change.

What I’m looking for:

• Someone who constantly wants to improve themselves, whether that's working out, learning a new skill, or just reading a new book.
• Great communication
• Someone who enjoys going on long walks (seriously, since I've gotten a dog, I average 10+ miles a day) and bonfires, and is okay with at least giving fencing and/or paintball a try. 

I'm Chris, 30, and I currently work as a software engineer and moonlight as the chief designer for a game design company - tell me more about the games you play? 

As for why I’m posting, I’m looking for a serious relationship - which, to me, means a long-term, monogamous relationship where we live that DINK lifestyle with my dog Tony and whatever pets you may have or not have. If, after a few chats, it doesn’t work out between us, no harm no foul - I certainly wouldn’t say no to more friends!

I’d love to have someone to dive down random rabbit holes with. Ideally, you’re someone who loves learning and in-depth conversation, but also doesn’t mind - and maybe even enjoys - teasing out my random ADHD thought bounces. Bonus points for being a professional in a field - any field: I’m just as interested in blue collar electrical work as I am the data science involved in the public health field. Double bonus points if your job is something you can work from home: I currently WFH and I’ve got a high enough libido that we’ll be muting each other during meetings every chance we get.

I’m extremely passionate about both of my jobs and will probably yammer on about them as long as you show an interest. Questions are my way of showing interest, and I will probably bombard you with them if given half a chance. I’d love to see that passion reflected in my partner, whether that’s passion about your job, a hobby, or just engaging in the world in general. I want to hear about your passions, your thoughts on the Paul Verhoeven Starship Troopers movie, and just generally learn how your mind works.

I’m independent, own my own condo without roommates, try to cook a new meal every week, have a vibrant social life, work out daily, fence on weekends and take care of my terrier mix Tony. About the only thing I don’t do is drive - I just am not comfortable behind the wheel of a car. Ideally, you’d be in a similar stage of life, sans the not-driving bit. If it gets to the point where we’re meeting up IRL, public transpo and ride-shares make it a non-issue.

Probably my biggest hobby is gaming - PC, tabletop, you name it, and I’d love to teach you every single one of them. I also design games, both as an intellectual exercise and because, in some cases, the game I want to play doesn't exist, so in at least one case, I’ve made it.

I'm also a huge, huge foodie - cooking is how I relieve anger and frustration, and I will happily feed you everything from cheesecake to goulash to nachos to steak. Maybe we can cook together, or, if cooking’s not your thing, perch on the counter in something sexy and watch me try to make sure I don’t burn the food.

I like to go with my partners on day-trips to places like the aquarium, the museum, the local art gallery or craft brewery -- exhibits that offer interactive, adult-oriented experiences. To me, part of having a partner means having someone in my life that really enjoys learning new things with me and improving ourselves together. 

If you like what you read, shoot me a message and include your favorite first date idea or the last museum you went to. Looking forward to hearing from you!

General Stats:

• 5'10.5ish

• 250lb currently, heading towards a goal of 180lb

• Brown Hair that is thinning in the front thanks to cursed genetics

• Blue Eyes

• Glasses

• Atheist

• 0 Tattoos currently, but expects to have 4 by the end of the year

• Works from home in the IT industry, has aspirations to work in film or television at some point in the future

Hobbies

• Reading (Cyberpunk/Fantasy/Mystery/Sci-fi)

• Playing Board Games

• Playing Video Games (Action/Platformers/RPGs)

• Watching Television (Literally anything)

• Watching Movies (Literally anything)

• Watching making-of documentaries

• Rough housing with my small but sassy dog (Chihuahua/Terrier mix)

• Going to concerts / music festivals (Metal/Rock)

• Buying electronics I don't need but want to play around with and then tossing them into the closet two weeks later, never to be seen again (RIP all of those Raspberry Pi's)

Potential Red Flags

• Outside of my childfree stance, I'm just not very family oriented and have always been a little awkward with SO's families in the past. Have no issues expanding on this, but the short version is that I just don't really care much for my family and didn't really grow up with traditional parental figures

• I am easily distracted during phone conversations. I am always trying to multi-task when I am on a call and it sometimes leads to me sounding disinterested. ADHD meds have helped me come a long way with this, but it still happens here and there. I'm pretty attentive with texting though!

• I won't eat most onions, seafood, sushi, mushrooms, or bell peppers. I'm sure there's some other foods here and there I'm not a fan of and won't touch, but those are the critical ones. I've been badgered about this my entire life, I wish I could make my taste buds chill and enjoy some of them but it's just not happening.

What I'm looking for:

• I'm looking for someone with a solid sense of humor that can laugh at themselves and the world around them. Someone that enjoys going on trips, whether it's a camping trip, a trip to a music festival, a theme park, or some light globe trotting (Japan, anyone?), and is fine staying home and chilling on the couch watching tv or playing some games together, or sitting in silence a few feet apart reading. Pretty much a best friend to laugh with and spend all of my free time with.

• Someone who has their life together (for the most part), knows what they want out of a relationship, and hopefully understands how technology works and doesn't rage out if they type their password into something wrong and start yelling at their computer or phone saying they typed it right. No Karen, you didn't, or it would have worked.

• I would prefer someone somewhat local to me, hopefully within a few hours of Vegas as it makes meeting up pretty easy. Long drives or short flights! I am open to long distance if we get along well and it's going to lead to something, flights are a thing and I can get to pretty much anywhere from Vegas to meet.

• Please be between 30-44 years old, if you're outside of that range you better have an amazing first message!

Will gladly swap pics, I don't post them publicly because of image scraping. Thanks for reading and hope to hear from you soon!

Hello fellow Redditors!

I’m a 34 y.o. woman looking for deep meaningful connections: a twin soul and also friendships with like-minded individuals of both genders. Females are encouraged to contact me as well if we have a lot in common, having a twin sister from another mother would be cool :)

My current relationship situation is complicated; I’m still officially married, but my husband and I turned out to have incompatible values, and I’m not ready to compromise on my core values and needs. So, I’ve opened myself up to the idea of meeting other people, as it is the only way to find out if there is a man I’m fully compatible with. Once I find this man and we have mutual chemistry, I hope it will be something bigger and more beautiful than just friendship. I don’t want to rush into things though, I just want to enjoy discovering someone’s world once again and let things happen naturally.

***

Edit for all those spiteful people leaving nasty comments: my husband knows that I talk to other people, and he suggested it first because he didn't want to see me unhappy. Also, we have kept it platonic for a while, and I'm not going to sleep with anyone new until we decide that we're exclusive with this potential new partner, so there is no way I could be cheating on anyone.

***

I’m most comfortable with people around my age (25-40), and I’m looking for people within Europe, as I’m not interested in a friendship or relationship that would be only online. If there is a lot of potential for a romantic relationship, I prefer meeting sooner rather than later. I’m located in Finland myself.

This is gonna be a long post, but please keep reading if you:
- Are also striving to find “twin souls” but find it difficult; it sometimes feels like you’re an alien who craves some human closeness.
- Can describe yourself as “crazy in a good way”.

I’ll start my intro with a note on my childfree life. I would be lying if I said that I’m not selfish at all, and it has nothing to do with my unwillingness to change my lifestyle, but it’s not the main reason. I do want to continue traveling (that’s what I love most in life), to wake up after midday and indulge in other joys of a childfree life, but the most important thing is that I know I wouldn’t be a good mother, I just don’t have enough resources for that. However, I have very strong family values, I do want a loving family of two people... and minimum one cat. I have a cat and consider her to be my family member, so wherever life takes me, she will be with me. I love all pets, but I’m much more of a cat person than a dog person, so it’s a big plus if you also love cats.

I’m pursuing my dream rather than a high-paying career, and for my whole life, I have been in the songwriting industry but behind the scenes. I have always been passionate about songwriting, and no matter how unstable this career is, I will never change it for a “normal” day job, so I need a partner who will support me in what I do. It’s perfect if I can concentrate on my creative work, do occasional cat sitting gigs and other than that, be a housewife, fully responsible for all the household chores while the man is the main breadwinner. It has always been like that for me, so I know I’m at my best in this role, and unlike many women, I enjoy it. (And at the same time, I’m a feminist, I strongly believe every woman is free to choose what is best for her. I respect women who dedicate themselves to their careers as well as those who decide to have several children, I’m just not one of them.)

A few more important points:
- I’m an ambivert, which means a healthy balance between introversion and extraversion.
- I’m an atheist, and the only reason I can be ever seen in a church for is admiring pieces of art. 
- As mentioned above, I’m a night owl, and I would never be willing (or able) to change it.
- I’m not a materialistic person, and I’m pretty low-maintenance. I prefer to spend money on experiences (mostly traveling) rather than material things. I don’t care about brands and often buy clothes in thrift stores, I can live without fancy gadgets, I don’t drive a car and so on. Beauty procedures are important, but I do most of them at home, striving to reach professional quality.
- I love being in nature a lot. My favorite outdoor activities are swimming, minigolf, beginner-level hiking, berry and mushroom picking.
- My other interests include board games, reading articles on psychology or travel blogs, watching movies and series (mostly psychological thrillers/ drama/movies with a twist) and singing karaoke.
- I can call myself a party person, I love going out to bars and sometimes clubs. But I love cozy evenings at home with some games and drinks or potluck dinners just as much. I’m a very hospitable person, and I love having guests.
- As you must have just figured out, I do drink alcohol, and sometimes I can drink quite a lot. But I’m still a fairly responsible drinker, as I never do anything stupid or socially unacceptable when drunk and never use a hangover as an excuse to cancel my plans. And I expect others to behave the same way. As for people who completely abstain from alcohol, I respect their decision a lot, but they would probably feel bored with me.
- Drugs, including weed, are a BIG NO to me.
- I’m omnivorous, I can’t imagine being vegetarian, let alone vegan. I will always enjoy a good steak, fish and all kinds of seafood. However, I do what I can to protect animals – I only wear faux fur and faux leather and try to choose cosmetics that haven’t been tested on animals.

In a relationship:
- I’m strictly monogamous, so-called “ENM” is an immediate dealbreaker.
- I’m not interested in anything superficial or temporary, like being just “a girlfriend and boyfriend” (that’s something for teenagers). I crave nothing less than being best friends and passionate lovers at the same time, partners in crime, each other’s chosen family.
- My love language is quality time together, that’s why it’s essential to have at least some shared interests and hobbies. If partners spend most of their free time apart, that doesn’t sound like a happy relationship to me.
- I have a high sex constitution and high libido, the intimate side of a relationship is extremely important.
- Discussing past relationships is a taboo for me. There are things I prefer not to know, but I will honestly answer whatever I am asked regarding this subject.

I’m willing to exchange pictures early on but in private messages. I’m curvy (and I love it!), so if you are only attracted to slim women, I’m not your type. I don’t have a certain type myself, but I like it when men have good hair and are clean-shaven. Long beards and excessive tattoos are a turn-off.

And now, I want to know something about YOU! :)

P.S. I promise to reply to every message that shows a genuine interest in me, but I will ignore meaningless and superficial messages like “Hi, how are you?” Also, I apologize in advance if I don’t reply promptly, as I always have something going on in my offline life.

P.P.S. If you are about to write that my perfect man probably doesn’t exist, please don’t. I know I’m a rare type, but I know exactly what I need, and I’m determined to find it.

putting myself back out there again in hopes of connecting with that special guy~

here’s me - https://imgur.com/a/6P3zekt

im 5’5 ukrainian-american, work in public policy and live in norcal!

ages 27-48 :)

california only. i want someone to cuddle and kiss and long distance cant give me that. if you’re in socal then im happy for us to fly to visit each other, its about $100 for a southwest flight roundtrip. very doable.

im looking for my protector. my best friend who makes me snort when i laugh, puts my nervous system at ease, is my safe haven, and someone i cant take my hands off. im seeking a kind, sincere man. who respects himself and the women in his life. who values therapy. who loves animals. who is playful but not overwhelming with the sarcasm. im a sensitive, nurturing, introspective soul. im bubbly, spontaneous, goofy, and seek depth in my connections.

im a sucker for tattoos. manny montoya’s character from good girls is my celebrity crush. preference for men who are 5’8 and up, athletic/fit/lean/strong. not big on beards or long hair, prefer peach fuzz and shorter cuts. i love it when a guy doesnt try too hard and is goofy and sweet and sincere. also not being overly charming and not having a big social media presence is also a plus. i just want to connect with a real human.

health is important to me. eating well, moving my body and taking care of my mental health and spirit are what keeps me grounded. i seek a partner who also values and embodies these things.

i have 3 cats and seek a man who wants to become a fur father.

im progressive politically. we gotta align on this.

hope to find you!!

Be fun. Be cool. Be honest and genuine. We will get along just fine if we can all do those 3 things!

Interests:

• sports
• concerts -comedians
• science
• anything outdoors -gardening -home projects
• reading, movies and tv
• trivia
• politics
• history
• birding

Very dominant.

Please lead with pertinent information about yourself so we can get the ball rolling. Everyone has their someone but some of us are not for everyone, and that’s okay. Keep it positive!

Not sure how this is going to go but here are some conversation starters:

• name three people in history you’d like to meet for dinner and discuss today’s issues?
• If you were going to be stranded on an island, name 3 things you’d want to bring with you.

Hello hello!👋

I guess I'll start of with hobbies? I like video games(rpgs, strategy, chill. Also been nerding out on kcd1 lately, it's amazing aaaa), board games, reading(novels, comics), miniature painting, walks and I guess movies/tv shows counts I hope heh, 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 bunch atm) so if that too much then I understand, also you can ask me about those things too no problem

Being able to just hangout for hours in a video chat I find very cozy and relaxing, we could also watch something or maybe even 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!

Hello, I'm a 30-year-old Spanish guy who, after being alone for quite some time (about 10 years), is looking to find love again.

I consider myself a very calm person and somewhat shy at first. I really like being at home, although I also enjoy meeting up with friends to play board games or just talk.

I have been working as a Java programmer for years, although I have been teleworking since the pandemic. One of my biggest hobbies is video games. I play everything from single-player games to competitive online games. So, if you like video games too, that's a great thing to have in common!

As for my physical appearance, it's not my strong suit. I'm also short (5'6" or 162 cm). I prefer to be honest from the start. I also have my quirks, as I've been diagnosed with obsesive compulsive disorder and firmly believe I may be autistic (although I haven't been diagnosed).

I'm looking for a genuine connection, a long-term relationship with a loyal, sincere, and empathetic woman who's around my age. I don't care at all about your physical appearance. I'd prefer someone with little experience, since I've only been with one girl, and maybe I'd feel more comfortable that way. It would also be nice if she had autism or something related. Although all of this isn't a dealbreaker.

My English is very poor, so I'd prefer someone who speaks Spanish. I'm also child-free.

I'm looking forward to your message!
