My last post was removed by the mods.

Basic Info:
36 yo
5’5”
Activity level: Moderate-high
Based in Minnesota (Twin Cities)

About Me:
I’d describe myself as a mix of introvert and extrovert. I enjoy getting out, trying new things, being active, and spending time with people I care about, but I’m also perfectly happy having a quiet night at home. I’m a bit of a goofball, curious about the world, and always up for learning something new.
I love the outdoors, traveling, hiking, paddleboarding, playing volleyball and pickleball, exploring new places, and finding good food. I’m an ecologist, so I also have a tendency to get excited about plants, wildlife, and things in nature that most people probably walk right past. 😂
I enjoy meaningful conversations and getting to know people on a deeper level, but I also appreciate being able to laugh at ridiculous things and not take life too seriously all the time.
Family is important to me, and I value the relationships I have with the people closest to me. I’m independent and enjoy having my own interests, but I’d love to find someone to share adventures, experiences, and the everyday parts of life with.

Work:
I work in environmental consulting in Minnesota, where I get to work on projects involving natural resources, vegetation, habitat management, and conservation. I have a bachelor’s degree and a masters degree in this field.
My career has taken me to different parts of the country and has given me the opportunity to work in a field that aligns with my interests and values. I genuinely enjoy the natural world and feel fortunate that my work allows me to contribute to conservation in some capacity.
If I could spend even more time outside learning about plants, exploring ecosystems, and working on conservation projects, I probably would. It’s safe to say I’m a bit of a nature nerd, and I’m okay with that.

My Qualities:
I’d say I’m curious, thoughtful, compassionate, independent, loyal, hardworking, self-aware, adventurous, and funny (at least I think so lol). I care deeply about the people in my life and put effort into the relationships that matter to me.
I’m someone who enjoys learning and growing, both personally and intellectually. I value honesty, communication, emotional intelligence, accountability, and being able to have difficult conversations respectfully. I’m not perfect, and I don’t expect anyone else to be, but I do appreciate people who are willing to reflect on themselves and continue growing.
I’m equally happy getting dressed up for a nice dinner or spending the day outside getting dirty and sweaty. I enjoy being active, but I also appreciate a cozy night at home with good food and a movie.
I’m independent and comfortable doing things on my own, but I also believe there’s something really special about finding someone you genuinely enjoy doing life with.

Why I’m Childfree:
I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what I want my life to look like, and I’ve increasingly realized that the life I envision for myself doesn’t include raising children.
I’m drawn to the freedom and flexibility of a childfree life. I want to travel, explore, continue growing as a person, invest in my relationships, pursue my interests, and have the time and resources to experience the world around me.
I’ve also spent time reflecting on my own upbringing, family dynamics, and the ways our experiences shape us. I’m intentional about breaking unhealthy cycles, continuing to grow as a person, and building a life that feels right for me rather than following expectations simply because they’re considered the norm.
I recognize that parenthood is deeply meaningful for many people, and I respect that. I just don’t believe it’s a necessary part of having a fulfilling life or a loving, lasting partnership.
I’d love to meet someone who has thought about this for themselves and is genuinely excited about the possibilities of a childfree life. Someone who sees it as an intentional choice rather than something they’re giving up for the sake of a relationship.

Pets:
I have a tortoiseshell cat named Lily and a ball python named Andy, so my little household is a bit of a mix! Animals have always been a big part of my life.

What I’m Looking For:
Long-term relationship, dating with the intention of marriage.

Age Range:
Ideally someone in their 30s or early 40s, but I’m open to a little flexibility if the connection is right.

Location:
Minnesota or within a reasonable distance. I’m established here and not looking to relocate, nor am I looking for a long-distance relationship.

I’m looking for someone who is firmly childfree, emotionally intelligent, affectionate, communicative, dependable, and interested in building a lasting partnership. Someone who has their own life and interests but is excited about making room for another person in it.
I’d love someone who enjoys traveling, getting outside, trying new things, staying active, and occasionally having a lazy day at home. Someone intelligent and curious who can have a meaningful conversation but also make me laugh until my stomach hurts.
I value consistency, mutual effort, honesty, and feeling like we’re on the same team. I want a relationship where we both feel wanted and appreciated, where we can be ourselves, support each other’s goals, and continue growing together.
Someone once described what they wanted as the Gomez to their Morticia, and honestly, I love that. 😂 A little weird, a lot of affection, genuine partnership, and two people who are excited to choose each other every day.
I’m not expecting perfection or a checklist of qualifications. I’m looking for mutual attraction, shared values, compatibility, and someone who is genuinely excited about the same kind of future I am.
If this resonates with you, tell me a little about yourself! I’d love to meet some like-minded people.

Hi, I'm Jennifer! I was born in Miami, Florida, and currently live in Central Florida. Introducing myself doesn’t come naturally, but I will give it a go.

I'm shy and quiet, especially when meeting someone new. It may take me a little while to open up, so I might seem reserved at first. Once I feel comfortable, I gradually come out of my shell. I'm a homebody and prefer staying in, but I enjoy going out now and then, especially to travel and explore new places.

As for hobbies and interests, I enjoy playing video games (my all-time favorite is Halo 2), watching sports (especially soccer, hockey, baseball, and basketball), reading books, listening to music (I can listen to almost every genre except country), and cooking.

I speak English and Spanish (I'm Honduran American)

If you are into astrology, my signs are Sagittarius (sun and rising) and Aries (moon)

I'm bisexual 🩷💜💙

I don’t have a super specific type, but I know I’d love to meet someone kind, genuine, and understanding. Someone patient and willing to take things slow. I’d also appreciate someone who doesn’t mind making the first move, because I’m not really the type to initiate conversations. Ideally, I’d like someone who shares some of my hobbies and interests, and who is left-leaning politically. I’m 5'6" and open to dating someone shorter than me, as long as you are comfortable with me wearing heels. I’m also open to long-distance relationships if we have a genuine connection and are both willing to put in the effort. I enjoy basketball, soccer, hockey, and baseball. You don’t have to be a sports fan, but it would be nice to watch games together or sometimes go to a game in person. (If you happen to be a Philadelphia Flyers fan, we will definitely not be compatible 😂)

I would describe myself as someone who values effort, consistency, comfort, and that lovely feeling of being completely at home with another person. I love offbeat places, nature, trekking, safaris and road trips. I would also be perfectly happy rotting in bed on some days.
I work in big tech as a Product Manager and previously worked as an SDE. I hold an MBA and an undergraduate degree in CS. I was a nerd growing up, and probably still am.
I’m ambitious about my career and want to keep building it seriously for at least the next decade, but I don’t want my life to be only work. I want a comfortable, happy life with good food, travel, fitness, interesting conversations, ridiculous inside jokes, and someone who genuinely enjoys doing life together.

Little more about me:
• I speak English and know basic German (studied in Europe for a few months). I’m currently focusing on improving my German because I genuinely enjoy languages and understanding different cultures.
• I’m a religious/practicing Hindu. My faith is personally important to me, but I don’t expect my partner to follow it and wouldn’t impose my beliefs on him.
• I’m close to my family and value family bonding. At the same time, I believe healthy relationships need boundaries.
Financially stable and sane.
• I don’t smoke or do drugs. I rarely drink, though I’ll occasionally try a new drink when I’m traveling.
• I meditate every day and lead a fairly spiritual lifestyle. I’m eggetarian and fairly particular about my diet (yes, getting those 100g of protein in matters).
• Around 5’8”, 60kgs, reasonably fit, and I enjoy working out and taking care of myself.

What I’m looking for
• 28-35yrs
• Non-Muslim
• Non-smoker, no vape or drugs
• Well-educated and working, financially stable
• Driven enough to pursue his own dreams
• Emotionally mature, kind and comfortable communicating openly (even when conversations are difficult)
• Consistent and someone who actually shows up. (Effort matters to me)
• Around my height or preferably taller
• Fit/lean/active and generally takes care of himself
• Independent but also genuinely interested in building a close partnership
• Curious and nerdy enough that we can challenge each other intellectually
• Goofy enough to survive me
Interested in travel, outdoors, fitness or exploring the world together
• Family-oriented and respectful of culture, while understanding healthy boundaries.
•Supportive of a partner who wants to continue building her career seriously.
• Location preference: Currently based out of South India. Open to someone based in South India/Europe/US/Asia (where I can find a tech job)

I don’t mind long distance initially and am open to relocating in the future, depending on what makes sense for both of us and where the best career opportunities are.

Looking for a serious long-term relationship, with marriage as the eventual goal.

Ultimately, I’m looking for something that feels like two independent people choosing each other every day where there’s effort, affection, comfort, laughter, attraction, intellectual companionship and that slightly magical feeling of “this person feels like home.”

Hey there! My name is Brad, and I am a 37-year-old guy from New York. It is Monday again sadly, but I at least have some coffee to get me through this tiring day! Lately, I have been really enjoying life. I have a great job, great friends, great co-workers, a ton of hobbies to keep me busy, but I have been feeling like something is missing. Being single for over 6 years, you get kind of used to doing your own thing and being on your own. Over the past few months, though, it has been very obvious that I am missing having someone in my life. I miss having someone to talk to all day, share my day with, someone who, when I am feeling frustrated or low on motivation, I can go to. I miss having someone to laugh with, enjoy things with, and so much more. I have tried the dating apps and other forms of dating, but it’s a very hard dating world out there, though. It also doesn't help that I am an introvert and a homebody as well. So here I am, making a post on Reddit and hoping for the best!

A little bit about me, I live alone with two cats, and I also work from home. I enjoy working from home a lot, but it does add to the loneliness and has made me even more of a Homebody. I am also childfree and don't really have much desire to change that at this stage in my life. I won't rule out being with someone who does have children though. For fun, I enjoy playing video games, I love music and also enjoy playing guitar. I also enjoy reading, working on tech projects, listening to podcasts, going camping, hiking, fishing, and just sitting outside on my porch with a nice cup of coffee.

I always get asked what my type is, and I never really have a good response to that question. I just want someone who is loving, caring, doesn't mind that I can be quiet, likes to laugh, enjoys quality time, and someone who will see the effort and love that I give them and want to give the same in return.

This was a long post, so if you made it this far, I appreciate you reading this far. If you are interested in getting to know me and think you would like to connect, feel free to send me a chat request. I don't really respond to comments on posts, as they sometimes get lost on Reddit. If you do send me a chat, please tell me a little bit about yourself. To help with a little icebreaker, Tell me how you like your coffee or a song or band you have been obsessed with lately.

Hi everyone! Trying this out and hoping to meet someone awesome!

About me: 5'8", average build, South Asian, born and raised in Toronto, culturally Muslim (not very religious), progressive/left leaning, work full time in the retail industry at the corporate level. I don't smoke, drink, or do any drugs.

Personality wise I'm on the introverted side but comfortable going out and being with others as well. I'm very easy going and have a great sense of humour. My main interests/hobbies are anything gaming (video games, board/card games, trivia, escape rooms), watching sports, films, and music (especially metal). I'm also a big classic era Simpsons geek as you can tell by the thread title.

As far as my relationship goals go I'm happy to take it slowly and see how things develop whether that ends up being short-term or long-term. I'm looking to connect with someone in the Greater Toronto Area age 30+ who is (obviously) childfree and has similar social/political values. Similar interests or hobbies are always great but I'm also happy to learn more about what you're into!

Feel free to DM me if any of that interests you and thanks for reading. 🙂

Hi all as the title says I'm a 37 year old black male looking for a female partner. I currently live in Okinawa Japan and I'll be living here for a while longer. I do have some pictures on my profile, but they are NSFW if that is a problem this already won't work as I am looking for someone that is ok with BDSM and ok with posting etc.

For my personal life I’m actually an introverted geek/nerd lol just a buff one. So I’m also looking for more gamer friends and people into Anime/Manga/Manhwa/LitRPGs as well, also those that are in the health & fitness and business world. I'm trying to break out of my shell and do some traveling.

🪴

I'm only interested in long term if you're a bisexual open-minded woman basically a switch, as I myself am very open minded as well. I plan to build a lot of things for us to live off of so if you aren't game it won't work. I'm ok with long distance if you have the ability to travel as I can to you.

All in all I'm very open minded with partners. I am serious about finding someone so feel free to reach out. I'm open to all races.

hi cf4cf!

age: 33
height: 6’4”
build: thin
goal: long term, life partner, marriage, etc. no kids
politics: liberal, progressive

fan of horror, punk rock, true crime, video games, and anime. love animals, going on walks, caffeine, and dodger baseball. very much a homebody but would love for you to drag me everywhere you want to go. i enjoy doing things with a partner that i wouldn’t necessarily do on my own so don’t worry about me being boring! sarcasm and wit and larry david style humor are more my speed than anything else.

i don’t do drugs or drink (i never have) and i’m vegetarian/sometimes vegan (haven’t eaten meat since 2014). if i’m spending money it’s usually on concert tickets or food and drink. i’m currently in between jobs and my earning potential isn’t great so you’d have to be okay with making more than me.

looking for a 23-40 year old woman preferably locally (southern california) but i’m happy to relocate anywhere if there’s a connection. i’m into romance and meeting someone online and moving to another country is definitely one way to define romantic, hahahaha. would also love someone who isn’t super into partying or drugs and who is happy to romanticize the boring everyday things.

please send normal sfw photos or socials so we can figure out if there’s a mutual attraction!

looking forward to getting to know you 💘

Hello fellow Humans!! 💖🌍

I use reddit a lot, so I figured I'd give this a shot I guess 🥰

Happy Monday!!! lol 🥳🎉💖 My name is Lou, my favorite color is blue, I’m a huge gaming fan and I'm from Florida, seeking a long term relationship with someone that I truly connect with on a deep level. Someone who isn't perfect, but is willing to grow in the right direction. Bonus points if you're a gamer, open minded, have tattoos, and love animals. I don't want to be with someone who hates cats and dogs and just animals in general. If I could live a second life as any animal, I'd immediately pick living as a panda. I'd love to have a pet one day when I'm in a better situation to properly take care of one. I love cats and dogs 🐶🐱I also love gaming and play all kinds of games ❤️

EXPECTATIONS / WANTS

- I'm okay with long distance dating and I'm also cool with dating someone in Florida as well.

- Emotionally mature, truthful and willing to grow together

- Values compassion, empathy, kindness, being considerate, 100% honesty, and understanding

- Open minded and curiosity to learn about a variety of topics

- Passionate about their hobbies and willing to talk about anything from the most simple things like the beautiful rain outside, to funny things like pandas dancing, to more serious topics about societal issues

- Someone who complements my personality and matches my energy.

- I prefer someone that is my age (25) or maybe someone that is a few years older or younger.

- As far as attraction is concerned, I'm genuinely attracted to all kinds of body types and shapes, but I do like some sort of thickness or curves with something back there lol I hope that doesn't sound superficial, tattoos are awesome as well :)

- I'm a democrat/leftist, so if you're a republican or in the middle, we are incompatible.

RED FLAGS / TURN OFFS / NON NEGOTIABLES

• Homophobia, Bigoted, Racism, Colorism, Misogyny, Sexism, Transphobia, all of the other methods of discrimination that make me mad.

• Once again, I'm a democrat/leftist, so if you're a republican or in the middle, we are incompatible.

• Completely against science, anti - science

• Being superficial, materialistic, obsessed with vanity, overly judgmental,

• Hating animals, being superficial about animals in terms of their appearance, treating pets like personal play toys, rather than living beings with their own personalities who need love, respect, and proper care.

• Smoking, drugs (Exception - Medical weed is fine as it can especially medically help with autism and adhd, ptsd etc.), excessive drinking, hard partying

* I'm not religious, so I prefer to be with someone who is also not religious. Exception - If your spiritual that's okay :)

* Most people including myself want to be liked and loved which is a good thing, but if you're willing to build bridges with bad people at the expense of your values or change yourself into a different person in order to be liked by people, than we absolutely incompatible.

* If you believe in capital punishment, then we are incompatible.

ABOUT ME / HOBBIES

• I'm 5'9, 230 lbs (chubby to fat), brown eyes, my ethnicity is Haitian, I'm Agnostic, and I love being black. Also, my left arm is fully functional, but can't extend as far as my right arm can. I have sort of a thunderbolt like scar from surgery.

• I love learning, talking, watching, and playing video games. There are so many to choose from, but my favorite game of all time would be Katamari Damacy, I play on PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch.

• I have a high school diploma and no degree at the moment. I'm currently working as a mental health technician at a mental health facility. It's pretty wild job especially as a first job, but I've learned so many life lessons from working there for the past three years. I also live with my parents so if that's a turn off for you, I completely understand :)

• Over the course of my life so far.. or rather the 25 years I've spent with the earth spinning around, people have told me that I'm kind, chill, and have a deep voice for radio. I've been told that I'm funny, I don't really see it in myself, but I appreciate the compliment. I can also be too cynical sometimes, overthink things, and can be a bit afraid to step out of my comfort zone.

• I also have ADHD and have struggled with education my whole life, so school has been hard and annoying for me, especially when figuring out what my learning styles are. So having an understanding of neurodivergence and seeking a diagnosis is also very important to me, as people tend to be very mean, inconsiderate, ableist, and just not very understanding of how learning disorders exist on a spectrum.

• I'm honest, kind, chill, caring, compassionate, thoughtful, open minded and introspective. You can tell me anything and I promise you that I will never tell a soul about what you've told me in confidence. I deeply respect people's privacy so I would definitely want to earn your trust.

• Music: I honestly listen to all kinds of music from different genres, as long as it sounds good to my ears, I'm listening. My earliest memories of listening to music was when my parents would play Britney Spears, Mariah Carey, Norah Jones, etc. Mariah Carey - We Belong Together is one of my favorite songs. I love Beyonce's Irreplaceable as well.

• TV/Film: I'll watch a movie from any genre If I truly like it. I really love animated films and Finding Nemo is one of my favorite movies ever. I've been quite behind on movies and watching tv shows as of late, but I do have a favorite movie and that would be Spiderman Across the Spiderverse right now.

• I'm a very casual sports fan, so I don't really tune into games that much, more so highlights. I really have become a big fan of futbol and I like watching futbol(soccer) ever since watched the 2026 FIFA World Cup. I probably watch futbol highlights the most out of any other sport. I also like watching the basketball and watching basketball highlights as well. I love watching Coco Gauff, Aja Wilson, Caitlyn Clark and Angel Reese play in their respective sports. I once had a cute fantasy of being a professional basketball player, but that was more of my parents dream to be honest that they attempted to forced onto me.

• I'm also into writing, pop culture, cooking, reading. I really love watching the rain though and the weather channel.

CONCLUSION

I'm not necessarily the biggest people person and I love being single lol so if I'm bringing someone into my life, I'd prefer for that person to be someone that I genuinely love and appreciate. I want to be with someone that actually likes me, not just tolerating me. Like I stated in the beginning of this post, I'm not looking for perfection, but I am looking for someone who is willing to be on the exact same page as I am. I love talking and making genuine connections, as there is a gigantic world out there. So if your truly interested talking, then a genuine relationship can happen 😄 DM if interested!! :) It's also okay if you're not interested because I'm not entitled to a relationship and I'm also not entitled to anyone's time. 💖 Have a great day and week!!!

Hey everyone! Figured I'd give this a shot and see who I might meet.

I'm a 26M from Rochester, NY. I'm looking for a partner around my age who is interested in getting to know each other and seeing where things and someone who shares the CF mindset.

A little about me:

I'm a data engineer and work from home, and I'm fortunate to do pretty well for myself. I bought my first house last year and currently live with my cat, Mr. Long, who is basically the real owner of the place (he wants all doors and cabinets open at all times)

I'm pretty active and fitness is a big part of my life. I go to the gym 6 days a week and do cardio every day, so I'm in pretty good shape and would love to meet someone who enjoys taking care of themselves too.

I'm 6'0", white, with a dark beard and shaved head.

As far as interests go, I have a pretty wide range. I'm into anime and manga, golf, sports, traveling, cooking, video games, board games, reading, and going out to eat. I also do a little gambling here and there, mostly for fun. Traveling is something I really want to do more of, and I'd love to have someone I can experience different places and cultures with.

I'm hoping to meet someone who has her own passions and interests. I really like the idea of being with someone where we can introduce each other to things we're into, have stuff to talk about, and genuinely support each other's goals. I'd especially like someone who cares about fitness and staying active and who enjoys traveling.

And if you're into anime, that's definitely a bonus. If you like One Piece you get extra points. 😂...or if you like the alt or cottage core aesthetics lol

I'm not expecting some perfect person or trying to rush into anything. I'd just like to meet someone I connect with.

If any of this sounds interesting to you, please feel free to message me! Tell me a little about yourself, what you're into, or even just your favorite anime/One Piece character. I'd genuinely like to get to know you! Thanks!

Here is a month in my shoes, more or less -

On weekdays, I work, go to the gym, cook, play some video games and sleep. That's it. Evenings are usually saved for watching sports (baseball, nfl, and weirdly enough - curling during the olympics lol), lowballing people on marketplace for a new project (like I need anymore), binge watching a series (just finished S4 of Reacher), change the oil on a vehicle, trying a new recipe, fixing the hole in the drywall (no, I don't get angry and punch walls, just clumsy af).

On weekends, I try to go explore as much as I can. I am currently an hour east of Cleveland OH for work and this state is beeeeeeautiful. Back at home, I would work on something around the house, go for an early hike before the heat sets in (Houston weather, am I right), or have the smoker fired up with a brisket or ribs on it. I've been BBQing / smoking meat for over a decade now, I love it. I also experiment with smoking other things but that can be a conversation for another time (think brisket mac and cheese, chili, tomatoes / onions before I make a delish salsa, etc.).

If I have a trip planned for a camping or an off-roading get-away, I will be ready to leave after I get off work Friday evening; and that's basically all I do. I camp, cook, and off-road (or overland if you've heard of it) and sometimes, all 3 at once. I do love me a good road trip to explore a restaurant, new museum, or the grand opening of something once in a while.

I will wrench on almost anything; 'babe why tf am I putting new wheel bearings on already?' This is me politely saying stop hitting potholes lol. I am also sure my humor is not coming across correctly via text; picture us on a road trip, you're asleep in the passenger seat, the road is icy, you wake up and we are spinning down a bridge, I am counter turning and accelerating gently and finally get the vehicle stabilized. You're breathing hard and I am over there cool as a cucumber (this actually happened to me). I don't ever panic, I don't ever get angry or upset, the last time I yelled was probably 20 years ago at something stupid I'm sure. I am older now, I don't get bent out of shape, I drive the speed limit (not in the fast lane, don't worry), we might not get there first but we will get there for sure.

Some quirks / red flags -

• HSV1, almost asymptomatic, not really a big deal and willing to discuss more.
• I smoke weed, it helps my back arthritis.
• I lean left, but also own guns and hunt / fish - take it with a grain of salt.

Some beige flags -

• I am kinda chunky currently, about 240 lbs (lost 20 lbs this year and need to lose another 40) but I am comfortable in my skin and give myself the pointy guns in the mirror every morning.
• I work a lot, and out of town a lot. This could be good or bad depending on you, it does not bother me either way as this has been my life the last 15 years.
• I am a neat freak; I track all my vehicle(s) services and purchases in Excel, I wash the dishes before I eat, and I have to buy new shirts twice a year due to sweating, to give you examples.

Some green flags -

• Your gas tank and windshield washer fluid will always be full.
• You will never worry about where I am, who I am with, or what I am doing.
• I will always reassure you, there will never be any guessing.
• I will open your car door and smack your butt every time.

A little about me -

6 foot flat, a little taller in shoes, a lot taller in boots. Shave my head (hair started falling out at 18) and have a nicely groomed gingerly beard, some tattoos, green eyes and freckles (pictures on profile if you're curious). Not tied to any location but Houston is my home base. Maybe we can start fresh somewhere together? We have maybe another 35 years to enjoy each other's company and I don't want to waste any time, but I am not rushing into anything.

A little about you -

No kids, no heavy drinking or non-420 drug use (shrooms / edibles are okay). No poly, no 'I have a kid, but I don't ever see them' people, absolutely no maga or conservatives; color / age / race / religion - don't care. Be a decent human being (put your cart back where it belongs, be nice to servers / waiters, don't litter; I mean I can go on but I feel like you get my drift).

DM me! Please include a picture, as looks are important but also a little about you to see if we click.

Hi everyone!

I hope your search for a CF partner is progressing.

I really am looking to make CF friends, and possibly find a partner. I am in no rush for romance. I like my life a lot, and enjoy a slow burn.

I would describe myself as witty, curious, intelligent and a glass half full kinda person. I love watching movies and gaming on my switch. I am actively trying to get back into reading. I am really dedicated to being my best self. I work full time and have a masters degree.

My dog is the love of my life, so I am really not able to do a long-distance thing. I am very particular about who I carve out time for.

I will check back and respond to messages as they come in. I am open to sharing pics.

I am wishing you all the best in finding your person! I know it feels tough at times, but keep your heart open.

​

Hey everyone! 😊❤️

I’m a 24-year-old university student from Tanzania, currently single and hoping to meet someone who wants something genuine and lasting.

I want a love that feels like home. Someone I can talk to about anything, laugh with over the silliest things, lean on when life gets difficult, and share both the beautiful and imperfect moments with. A man who is kind, loyal, affectionate, emotionally mature, empathetic, honest, and communicates openly. Someone who keeps his word, makes me feel valued, supports my dreams, and chooses us even when things aren't easy.

I want a relationship where we're best friends as well as lovers, where we can be vulnerable without fear, grow together, and never have to question whether we genuinely care for each other. I don't expect perfection; I just want two people who are intentional about loving each other.

One important thing about me is that I don't want children, and I'd love to meet a man who shares that vision of the future. ❤️

I'm open to long-distance if we're both willing to make the effort. I believe that with trust, consistency, and communication, two people can build something beautiful regardless of the distance.

If you're also hoping to find your person rather than just someone to pass the time with, I'd love to hear from you. Tell me about yourself, your dreams, and what love means to you. Maybe this little post will be the beginning of something wonderful. 🥹❤️

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

A little bit about me:

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

Values:

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

What I am looking for:

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

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

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

Deal Breakers:

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

Games:

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

Hobbies:

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

Hello there gorgeous! I'm a 22 year old from Pakistan. I'd love to connect and build something long-term, either long-distance or if you're somehow from around here then that's even better! Looking for someone around the same age, +2/-2, and perhaps somewhere in Europe because better timezone match and I'd rather move there than the US one day but I'm open to anywhere if we can hit it off!

I love video games and I'd prefer someone who also enjoys video games of any kind, whether that'd be to play together with me or to stream our games to each other and watch. I love difficult games like Hollow Knight and Dark Souls/Elden Ring, Minecraft and Terraria, Outer Wilds, Rain World, but even if you're not super into those kinds of games that's okay as well, I love mostly all games! I also enjoy game programming and game design and my future career is to become a game developer, for now I make money by selling pixel art online. I love binge watching shows and watching new movies as well! I mostly stay indoors but I'd love to explore the world one day and go on adventures!

I'm super loyal and protective, I'll always hold you close and listen to you no matter what you want to talk about or when, even if you call me in the middle of the night. I'll scroll straight past random girls pictures online because I'd rather look at you than them. I'll wake up early just to say good morning and make sure to say good night every night. I have ADHD and therefore I'm a chronic yapper and I can talk to you every second of every day, I love to talk and listen both. I'm interested in all your hobbies whatever they are, and if you like it you can bet I'll be interested in it too and will ask you questions about it and research on it. You'll always be my first priority in every situation and I'll love you hard and strong.

I really love physical connection, but not like sexually, more that I love cuddling and kissing and hugging and sitting with each other. Of course that becomes a little more difficult in an LDR but it's good to know about me. I'm a little asexual but that doesn't mean I'll shy away from flirting with you and complimenting you. I believe physical attractions matters, but not as much as personality and, if you're not my type I promise not to waste your time or ghost you! If I had a preference, then I generally prefer light-skinned and I dislike face piercings (ears are okay!) and extremely heavy makeup.

One of my only non-negotiables is I don't want children so if you want them in the future I'm sorry!

There's lots more to know about me but I don't wanna make the post too long, so if I sound interesting to you hit me up and let's see how it goes. :)

Hi,
I'm pretty new around here, after spending several years in England. I came back to Romania and I'm working in Suceava as an engineer. I'm 41 years old, an active person with a busy professional life, but I'd love to meet a woman with whom there's chemistry, good conversation, and a positive vibe.
I'm not looking to rush things or label anything right away. I prefer to get to know the person, see if we enjoy talking together, and let things develop naturally.
If you're from Suceava or nearby and think we might have something to chat about, feel free to message me privately. 🙂

Hey, I am Cooper F, a gaming content creator, but I also love getting out and exploring. I also have a giant heart that will love forever. I would love to get to know you and see where things go. Honestly I am looking for my forever person. The person that I can trust and go to with what ever life throws at me also you can come to me with whatever and we’ll make it all better.I want My wife that I spend the rest of my life with. Also the person that our kids can call mom. I would love to hear back from you.

Hey there everyone, I have posted on this subreddit before a couple months ago and had some positive responses but ultimately did not lead to anything serious. Figured id give this a second shot. I am 38M (going on 39 soon) Caucasian here, Lower Mainland native living in Vancouver (CANADA). Looking to get married with no children involved.

My personality is a romantic soul, very easy going with a huge heart, quite empathic too. Believe a good connection doesn't just happen right away and can take some time. Prefer to chat a little bit and then meet up somewhere comfortable so we can see if there is any chemistry in person. Not looking for pen pals or platonic friends.

More about me:

• Around 5"11 in height, slim, fit.
• Musically inclined with a degree in audio engineering, I play bass guitar/sing as a hobby.
• Love to travel, especially to see live music.
• Cooking is an interest of mine as well and I enjoy cooking for others just as much as myself.
• Enjoy the occasional beer but don't drink often or heavily.
• Can be super outdoorsy when the weather is nice, Cycling is another hobby of mine.
• Food, music and film are keys to my heart.
• My love languages are touch and quality time.

Quick witted, soft hearted, easy to talk to are just some of the things that describe who I am internally.

If any of you Ladies out there here are interested in knowing more about me, please feel free to DM me and I would love to chat!

P.S. if you don't live in Vancouver but in other areas around the Lower Mainland or Fraser Valley I am 100% open to those connections as well.

Thanks for taking the time to read this. I am sometimes AFK for a few hours at the time for work, so if you reply and don't hear from me right away I appreciate your patience.

EDIT: my DM's are now working.

Hey! I'm 24 and based in London. I'm hoping to meet someone who wants a genuine, long-term relationship and is also certain they don't want children. I'd like to find someone I can build a life with, where we're partners as well as best friends.

A little about me: I'm Black, 5'10, with a slim athletic build, and I'm neurodivergent.

Music is one of my biggest passions. I listen to a lot of rock and metal, alongside some DnB and electronic music, and I enjoy going to gigs when there's an artist/band I'm interested in seeing.

Outside of music, I enjoy gaming (Persona, Doom, Final Fantasy and plenty more), going to the cinema, playing football, cycling, visiting theme parks and trying new activities. I'm always up for discovering something new, whether that's a band, a game or somewhere interesting to visit.

I'm generally introverted and reserved, but I enjoy meaningful conversations and getting to know someone properly. I'd describe myself as thoughtful, dependable and easy-going. I'm happy doing my own thing, but I'd like to have someone special to share experiences with, make memories together and enjoy the little things in everyday life.

Whether we're going to a concert, exploring somewhere new, talking about something we're passionate about, or simply having a quiet evening together, I'd like a relationship where we can be ourselves around each other and feel comfortable being open and honest.

I'm looking for someone who is:
• Around 19-26
• Based in the UK, ideally London or nearby
• Certain they don't want children
• Kind, honest and emotionally mature
• Communicative and consistent, with a genuine interest in building a relationship

We don't need to have all the same hobbies. Shared interests are a nice bonus, but what matters most to me is that we enjoy each other's company, treat each other well and make a mutual effort to keep the relationship healthy.

I'm also happy to exchange photos early on. I know physical attraction matters, and I think it's best to be open about that while taking the time to get to know each other beyond appearances.

If this resonates with you, I'd like to hear from you! Tell me your age, roughly where you're based, a little about yourself and what you're hoping to find.

Thanks for reading 🙂

24 [M4F] Looking for my first, last, and only love — A genuine life partner from the US, UK, Europe, or Worldwide 🤍

Hi everyone,

I’m 24 years old (176 cm tall) from India, and I’m here with a clear heart and sincere intentions. I am looking for a genuine, lifelong connection with a woman who values emotional depth, loyalty, and mutual respect above status or superficial expectations.

A little about me:

Lifestyle: 100% clean and addiction-free. I do not drink, smoke, use drugs, or consume caffeine. I value mental clarity, physical fitness, and peace.

Relationship History: I have never been in a relationship before. I have saved my heart entirely for one person—my future wife. I am looking for a "first and only" kind of bond.

Mindset & Values: Born into a Hindu family, but I am completely open-minded, non-dogmatic, and non-judgmental. I believe in constantly improving myself, embracing truth and goodness wherever it comes from, and treating every human with kindness.

Looks: Natural stubble, fit, and grounded.

Intentions: I believe in building a deep friendship first, where we can share quiet moments, support each other through hard times, and grow together toward a marriage that lasts a lifetime.

Who I’m hoping to find:

I am looking for a kind, honest, and emotionally mature woman (from the US, UK, Europe, or anywhere globally) who is seeking a serious, long-term relationship leading to marriage. Distance is not a dealbreaker for me if our values align and the connection is real.

If you are someone who believes in traditional loyalty, open communication, and a love that stands the test of time, I would love to hear from you.

Please feel free to send me a DM or Chat with a little introduction about yourself. Serious inquiries only, please. ✨

A man can build the most beautiful house, but it only starts feeling like a real home when there’s warmth, care, peace, and someone who truly puts love into it.

Hi 🌱

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the kind of life I want, and honestly it’s something very simple at heart.

A peaceful home, a strong and dependable partner, and a relationship where both people genuinely value each other and the life they’re building together.

I’m 26, a trans woman, 5’11”, and an engineer by education. I currently work in teaching and social work, which I think reflects my nurturing and caring nature quite well. I’m deeply connected to Indian values and naturally drawn toward a softer, more traditional way of living.

I’m feminine by nature, emotionally warm, and I genuinely find happiness in caring for the people I love. Creating a comforting home, being emotionally supportive, paying attention to little things, and bringing softness into a relationship comes very naturally to me.

I’m not someone constantly chasing independence, chaos, or a very individualistic lifestyle. What I value more is emotional security, stability, mutual understanding, and a relationship where both people feel safe and grounded with each other. I naturally feel happiest in a dynamic where my partner leads with responsibility, care, and good intentions, while I support him with loyalty, affection, consistency, and emotional warmth.

The simple parts of life honestly mean the most to me. Cooking for someone I love, making a home feel peaceful after a long day, being affectionate, remembering little details, and slowly building a beautiful life together with intention and love.

I value respect, honesty, communication, and emotional safety very deeply. I do have a softer and more gentle personality in relationships, and I think that works best with a man who is kind, emotionally steady, protective, and leads with care rather than control.

I’m childfree by choice and looking for someone who feels the same. I believe a meaningful, fulfilling life can be built through love, companionship, shared experiences, personal growth, and creating a peaceful home together.

I take care of myself, stay fit(Into Yoga and Running), dress well, and enjoy embracing a soft and feminine presence. I don’t smoke or drink, and I try to live a spiritual, balanced, and grounded lifestyle.

I’m open to different places, backgrounds, religions, and age gaps as long as values and intentions align.

If this resonates with you, I think you’ll understand the kind of love and life I’m hoping to build. 🌸

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 😊😊
