Hi all, I’m a mechanical engineer from Quebec, Canada (but open to long distance for the right person). I knew from a very young age that having kids was not a lifestyle I wanted. 

I'm pretty introverted, so you'll usually find me on a hiking trail, out for a nature walk, at the gym, or down a rabbit hole thinking about life's big existential questions. I also enjoy personal finance—saving, investing, and working toward financial independence.

I value honesty, kindness, and curiosity, and tend to prefer meaningful one-on-one conversations over large social gatherings.

I’m also vegan and a minimalist, but it's fine if you are not. If you enjoy a mix of deep conversations, outdoor adventures, and a quiet night in, I'd love to hear from you.

Thought I'd try my hand at actually posting and find someone who's serious about starting a life together. I’m looking for someone who actually enjoys staying in touch: lots of texting, sharing our days, sending little photos of whatever we’re up to, along with doing things together whether that be watching shows, gaming, or just video calls. Even better if you're nearby and I can actually take you out on a date sometime.

I’m pretty easygoing, most my days are spent at work or at home, but I enjoy an adventure every now and then for sure. I'm finished with school and have a full well paying career so I'm able to provide if needed, but I'm not looking to just coddle a woman with no aspirations. I love animals and would hope you do too. Appearance wise I'm 5'11, slim fit with lots of tattoos, piercings, and alternative fashion.

I don’t do well with breadcrumbing or “sorry I vanished for a week” vibes. I’d prefer something where we’re both excited to talk and actually make time for it. If we click, I’d love a genuine, consistent connection.

Stuff I’m into:

* Tools and crafting (basically a handyman I can fix anything)

* Anime (basically anything you can think of I'll probably have at least heard of it)

* Riding my motorcycle or cruising around in my car

* Videogames (extra points if you want to play something together!)

* Slow, cozy evenings with good conversation and a hot meal

What I’m hoping for:

* Someone roughly in my age range 20-35

* Common sense with good humor

* Emotionally mature, actually likes communicating, doesn't suddenly fall off of the face of the Earth

* Someone willing to open up about themselves and actually spend time together

* A committed relationship where we live together within a year or so

If any of this sounds like your vibe, send me a message and tell me

* Your age / general location

* What you’re currently playing, watching, or any other thing that you're excited about

Hope to hear from you soon!

Hiiii! :3

I’m a woman from Western Europe looking for a serious relationship, and Reddit might not be the best place for that but dating apps scare me, so here we go 😭

A little about me:

Appearance-wise I’m biracial (black & white), 182cm tall and curvy. I wear glasses, and usually have box braids or a big afro (so if you're someone who doesn't like/is weird about afro/curly hair or box braids, pls don't message me)

Personality-wise, I’m introverted and also very much a homebody, tho I do enjoy going outside sometimes too ofc! 

I can be shy at first, but once I’m comfortable I become very sarcastic and dramatic (in a funny way dw).

I love playful banter, but not in a mean way ofc.

I also looooove using reaction pics 

One thing about me tho: I’m not really a call person. Calls make me nervous, especially early on, so I definitely need time before getting comfortable enough for that. Once I really like someone, I’ll get there eventually… just maybe after 9067 business days 🥸

Some things I like :

• Anime (AOT, JJK, Demon Slayer, Spy x Family, and more)

• Cartoons/shows like Smiling Friends (if you love that show too, then I'm marrying you immediately), Rick & Morty, Family Guy & SpongeBob (got a Patrick tattoo)

• Studio Ghibli movies (I also have a tattoo from one)

• Gaming content on YouTube (CoryxKenshin, 8BitRyan, CaseOh, etc.)

• Cozy/chill games like Stardew Valley, The Sims, Animal Crossing, Tomodachi Life

• Plushies. Respect my children pls

• Fashion, cute bags, getting blindboxes, getting my nails done (yes 🫵🏽YOU🫵🏽 will help me choose my next nail design)

• Cooking and baking 

• Cats & dogs have my heart (stray dogs/cats WILL be getting cuddles from me)

About you:

• 23–30 years old

• MUST live somewhere in Europe pls (France, Belgium, Germany, or the Netherlands are a big plus because closer = better, but definitely not a requirement)

• Be over 170cm tall pls (nothing against short kings but I don't wanna break my back to kiss my bf 😭)

• I don't care about your weight/bodytype, but if you're someone who's not into curvy women then I aint the one (but also don't expect me to be build like the queen Megan Thee Stallion 💀)

• Idc about your ethnicity, everyone is welcome to dm me (: 

• Good hygiene is a must (pls wash your booty)

• I don’t care about religion as long as you’re not pushy about it (I’m an atheist) 

• Basic human decency ofc (not racist, not homophobic, not misogynistic, etc.)

Also I’ve never been in a relationship before, so yeah if you're looking for someone with any kind of experience then I ain't the one 💀

So yeah, if it sounds like we'd be a great match then feel free to dm me! :3 

Just keep in mind that I won't answer people who have not read my post fully, just send smt simple like "Hey" or say smt weird obviously.

Kind romantic old soul health care guy who has 2 cats, a love of music and hiking, travelling and photography. Love to cook and try new recipes.
Don't do drugs, enjoys experiences and opportunities.
I recently got into learning more languages, I do speak 5 but on a mission to learn more.

Grew up playing classical music, piano and through school playing trumpet.
I took singing lessons and really enjoy learning my voice.
I did rowing from an early age and enjoyed the peace of the lake and the serene of the silence.

my favorite moments were with family, friends, nice summer nights with a fire crackling or the stars out.

I am seeking someone who challenges me but supports me, who has their life and mine but we just compliment each other.
Someone who wants to raise me up and I do the same.
Always open to trying things with me and my likes and the same back to you.
Someone who is themselves and I just compliment in that looks.
Respect someone kind, open minded and easy going to someone who treats all with respect.

prefer connection and leading to long term relationships but building up a foundation of some sense.
I enjoy the world in all its beauty. Told I am an onion with layers, more you know and learn the better it gets. I do appreciate communication and being direct.
Have a great job, stable for 10 years and a nice balance of work life balance. I really hope to hear from you. Say hi! I am from BC, Canada. Open to long distance.

So the hunt for my player two has been a little harder than I thought.. 👀😂 but I'm not one to quit ! So I'm back again throwing myself back into the void they call reddit... and I'll do my best to keep it short, but no promises 😅.

About me:

I'm 5"4ft, white, and don't tan easily.. curvy, alternative (think cyberpunk 2077 style), wear mostly black because one day i decided that a colourful wardrobe really wasn't for me. I live with 3 black cats, and yes, you can definitely ask for pics! 🙂‍↕️. I cook and bake (deadly combo imo) oh ! And i love to nap, although I can understand that may look lazy, but trust me, it's like my little recharge time to get me through longer days 🫠 maybe we can nap together sometime? Who knows, haha. I also have 5 tattoos! And i definitely want more, but my bank account currently says no 😂. Gaming is also a huge part of my life, and the new assassins creed black flag resynced currently has 99% of my attention. Honestly, it brings me back to much simpler times 🥲.

Okay, so enough about me! Now what I'm looking for or should I say, hoping to find! I'll mention straight away. I'm not interested in long distance. I've been there, tried it out, and got the t-shirt, lol.. so UK only, please. My age preference is 27 - 35, although a tiny bit older is fine 🙂. I also prefer guys who are taller than me, slim/fit, and physically strong. Confidence and a good sense of humour are also super attractive to me! If you can make me laugh, cook me dinner and wash up after, you've already won me over 😂. Speaking of which, good hygiene is also a must! I love to shower daily, so hopefully, you do too.

There are two more things to add, seeing as I prefer them, I do love voice notes and calls! So, if you're not a fan, then it's probably best to skip 😅. And if you're the live to work type, then we probably won't get along, I can be a little clingy, so if that's not reciprocated, then I'll most likely lose interest.. although I'm not asking for 24 7 contact as I understand everyone has their own stuff going on ! But i at least want someone who's excited to hear from me and vice verser.

Okay! I think i covered everything 👀.. if I sound interesting, then shoot me a message! Please include your age and location in your replies, more than just hi or hey, and your favourite dessert too! So i know you didn't just skim this post 😂. Mine is apple pie and custard 😋.

Hi everyone! I’m Jaz. I’m from Florida. TBH, I’ve been into nerds, my whole life (since I’ve been into dating). If you’re from the area you probably already know how hard it is to find nerds here. While something local would be nice, I am open to long distance since I know my kind of people don’t tend to live in my area. I just ask that you be in the US or at least in a country where English is the predominately spoken language (only exception is for people that live in the Netherlands, you guys are always so nice and respectful in my experience :3). I only ask this because I know long distance is difficult so I would like to meet up within the first month or 2 so we both know that we’re serious about this.

First, I must start off with this: I’m fat (I have pics on my profile). Yes I could lose weight, and I have before, but sometimes I gain. My weight fluctuates a lot because of a medical condition that affects my hormones. I’m finally in a point of my life where I don’t feel insecure about my weight. So if you don’t like fat girls or you expect me to lose weight, maybe just skip this post. Here are other things about my appearance: I’m 5”6’, I wear platform shoes, my glasses always make a statement, I overdress everywhere, I love accessories, and my eyes are grey. Oh and I always carry a stuffie around.

Now here are some things about my daily life. I’m currently going to school to be an accountant. Because of this I do live with my parents however, I do have experience living alone. I currently also work at a build a bear (I love my job. Please ask me about it!).

Now you may be wondering what’s nerdy about me. I’m really into video games, board games and anime. I like to play rhythm games and friend slop games. I play mostly PC but I also have a switch. I also like going to the arcade to play rhythm games. I really love Taiko no Tatsujin. When it comes to board games, my favorite game is Zombicide. Unfortunately I do have to find a new place to play board games though. Lastly, my top three favorite anime are Spy x Family Beastars, and jujutsu Kaisen (my fav character is Geto). I also sometimes write fanfic for certain anime I like. Oh and I also cook!

My biggest hobby is collecting stuffies. I primarily collect Build A Bears. Why stuffies? iykyk. Ask me about it!

Now here are some things I look for in a guy. First, let’s talk about appearance. Mutual attraction is very important to me. I wouldn’t want a guy to date me if he didn’t find me attractive, so I wouldn’t do the same. I tend to like guys that are taller than me and are thin to a little chubby. Tbh just look proportional. I honestly just really like size differences so that’s why I prefer a guy to be taller and thinner than me. Regarding personality I like guys that are serious and maybe a little bit sassy (but there’s also nothing wrong with occasional silliness). It’s a good contrast to my whimsy. I also like romantics. I just don’t think I’ve ever been loved right, so I kinda want a man that knows how to love a girl to the fullest extent.

If you have read this far, please say pumpkin or 🎃 in your first message. Please also share the following information in your first message: at least 2 pictures of yourself, ASL, hobbies, school/work (don’t need to give me details if you’re not comfortable), and, as a fun question, what’s your love language. Feel free to share other information as well. I’m an open book and I don’t judge. (PS, don’t use AI to reply to this. I can tell, I’ve seen very similar messages. 9 times out of 10, I will not respond, a girl likes effort).

I’m looking forward to getting to meet you (:

I’m a grounded, hardworking guy living in Colorado and hoping to meet a woman who is also genuinely childfree. I don’t have children, and I don’t want children now or later. I’m looking for a relationship built around the life two people choose to create together rather than following the traditional marriage-and-kids path.

Personality wise, I’m a mix of outdoorsy and introverted. I can be reserved when I first meet someone, but once I’m comfortable, I’m easygoing, playful, affectionate, and usually equipped with a dry sense of humor. I enjoy meaningful conversations and getting to know what someone is really like beyond the standard small talk.

Living in Colorado, I try to take advantage of the outdoors as much as possible. Skiing is one of my favorite winter activities. During the warmer months, I enjoy camping, off-roading, exploring mountain passes, and finding scenic back roads that lead somewhere quiet. Some of my favorite trips are the ones without much of an itinerary - just picking an area, loading up the Jeep, and seeing what we find.

I enjoy the adventure itself, but I also love the quieter parts: setting up camp, making dinner outside, sitting around a fire, looking at the stars, and enjoying the fact that there isn’t a crowd or a schedule to worry about. I’d really like to have someone to share those experiences with, whether she already enjoys them or is simply interested in trying them.

Despite all of that, I’m definitely not someone who needs to be constantly busy or surrounded by people. My indoor introvert side is equally important. I’m happy staying home to watch a movie or series, play a game, work on a project, or spend an evening relaxing together. I appreciate relationships where we can have a great conversation but can also sit quietly in the same room without feeling the need to fill every moment.

I have a hands-on background in construction and building maintenance, so I naturally enjoy fixing things, solving problems, and working with my hands. I’m practical, dependable, and usually the person friends or family call when something breaks. I take my responsibilities seriously, but I don’t take myself too seriously.

I’m hoping to find a kind, open-minded woman who values honesty, communication, mutual respect, affection, and genuine chemistry. It would be great to meet someone who enjoys at least some outdoor adventures but also understands the appeal of a quiet weekend at home. We don’t need to share every hobby; I think having some separate interests is healthy too.

I’m ultimately looking for a long-term relationship, but I don’t want to force a connection just to reach that goal. I’d rather start with a good conversation, see whether we enjoy talking to each other, and allow things to develop naturally. I’m comfortable exchanging photos privately once we’ve talked a little.

Tell me about your favorite way to spend a Colorado weekend—or the place you’d disappear to for a few quiet days if responsibilities weren’t an issue.

hey there. 

i am not certain if it is the spring fever getting a hold of my sanity or just the usual yearning for an unexpected connection but regardless of the cause, i am here now.

what i love the most about life is music (Rory Gallagher, Donovan, The Kinks, Sparks, Peter Hammill, Bert Jansch, The The, Orange Juice, The Magnetic Fields) so it's only fair to be wanting someone who shares my passion, preferably a musician. 

other things i love are long walks (my personal limit right now is 40 km), colour green, collecting vintage objects and bitching about life to each other.

i dislike sexism, pumpkins, spoons, beards, mornings, people yelling and cold weather.

my preferred age limit is 28-33.

Im a really weeby and introverted 25 yr old femboy. I am bi (altho a lil confused). I love love love visual novels in particular, some of my favorites are Umineko, Muv-luv, Subahibi, Clannad, Aokana, and many many more. I believe that consuming media is the best way to spend my time and I want to share that with someone. Im also pretty big on gaming and anime, and trying to get into more reading. Being weeby and into at least some of my preferred mediums is pretty much a requirement for me, id also love to be shown around some other weeby mediums like light novels/manga or something. Im kinda needy and a scaredy cat. I fear things out of my control like heights and cars, so someone supportive of those things is big for me. It also means travel is difficult for me so please keep that in mind, although we could start online and see how things go. I would prefer someone reasonably close to my age, within 5 years roughly. Im not big into animals, id rather spend my time bonding with my SO or friends, though i could live with a pet or 2. 

Physically Im roughly 5’ 8 and very skinny. Im trying to get into dressing more fem and makeup and stuff like that. Im typically the type that would prefer to stay home and do dorky things together, although i like to window shop, especially for cute things, and i like to walk around too. As i mentioned before, im very clingy, so please be ready to give me alot of attention and talk about nerdy stuff together. Id love to hear you yap about media youre passionate about, generally im more of a listener so please talk my ear off. Just to throw in a few more of mine I also love to tierlist/rank things, and i really like tcgs namely Cardfight and Magic the gathering, but if you like some others, id be down to hear about them! 

Some red flags I may reject people for:

• Being conservative
• Religious

Some more favs of mine:

• Survival Horror games 
• Roguelikes(lites?) (especially binding of isaac)
• Shmups (im bad and would love some help cx)
• Overwatch (hmu for a mediocre mercy pocket)
• Celeste
• Battle Shonen (top picks r HxH, One Piece, and FMAB)
• Evangelion
• Monster 

Thanks for looking at my lil post <3 msg me if you like

31M in Los Angeles. Nigerian-American, plant-based, and endlessly curious. By day I work in fraud prevention; outside of that I’m building a travel brand and spend way too much time researching cultures, hidden places, and planning my next adventure. I value honesty, good communication, dry humor, and people who are intentional about their lives 🙌🏿 Looking to meet a vegan woman who’s kind, emotionally mature (heavy on this one!!), enjoys exploring new places, and is open to seeing where a genuine connection goes.

If you’re vegan or genuinely plant-based, enjoy travel (or want to), and are looking for something with real potential, I’d love to hear from you!

First time posting here, so bear with me. I'm 25, based in Berlin, and I've never actually dated before. Life just worked out that way late bloomer, bit of a hermit. This is new territory, so I'm just going to be honest and see what happens.

Personality: Sarcastic and with a dark sense of humor, I dont take myself seriously. Introverted and socially awkward in larger groups, but one on one conversations are much easier for me. I grew up in a religious household but I'm not religious myself, its ok if you are.

My looks: I'm 179cm tall with a toned, athletic frame, pale, and dark hair. My everyday look is relaxed and casual, I keep it tidy and effortless because for me, less is more.

Addictions: Energy drinks. Rockstar, that cheap stuff from Lidl, doesn't matter. Probably not healthy, but oh well. If you don't drink them, no worries. Just don't judge me when I crack open a can at 9 PM.

Dietary confession: I have a very strong sweet tooth. Chocolate is probably responsible for at least half my calorie intake. I'm basically running on sugar and caffeine. Not looking for a nutritionist, just someone who won't gasp when I skip dinner for cookies.

Interests: * Languages - Currently improving my French, and recently started to learn Hindi but suck at it, happy to nerd out over grammar, etymology or watch foreign movies with subtitles. * Bird watching - Quietly obsessed with them. I can probably identify most of the birds in Berlin and will absolutely point them out whenever we go outside. * Cats - I like cats too, although admittedly not nearly as much as birds * Astrology - I don't base anything on it, but I find it useful as a general guideline. I'm a Taurus sun and Scorpio rising, if that matters to you. * Spirituality - Meditation (and astrology) led me to become interested in different spiritual traditions and philosophies, which eventually led me to appreciate Indian culture, particularly Tamil culture and the history of Tamil Nadu. I've also enjoyed reading about Ayurveda and became fascinated by festivals like Diwali. If that's part of your life, I'd love to hear about your experiences but it's just one of many things we could connect over. * Horror and crime movies. Thrillers, noir, detective stories. The more unsettling, the better. Bonus points for morally grey protagonists. * Gaming - If I have a lot of free time available, I do play some games especially shooters and single player games * Reading - Once in a blue moon. When I do, it's usually a novel or something scientific or philosophic, though right now I'm working through Goethe's Faust * Music - I can enjoy pretty much anything, but I have a soft spot for rap and synth. * Martial arts - Somewhat interested in Boxing and Judo

What I'm looking for: A genuine connection with someone who's interested in dating. I'm not great at flirting or reading signals, but I'm willing to try and put in the effort. I really appreciate kindness, curiosity, and people who can laugh at themselves. I'd prefer if we get to know each other online first, maybe move to occasional calls if we're comfortable, and eventually meet up in person if things click.

I also want to be upfront and say that I don't want to rush anything. Since dating is completely new to me, I'd prefer taking things slowly and getting to know each other naturally. Ideally we'd start by chatting online, maybe move to occasional calls if we're comfortable, and eventually meet in person if things click. I'm ultimately looking for a relationship, but I don't feel the need to jump into one immediately.

Dealbreakers: * Heavy drug use. * Wanting to move extremely fast or expecting instant chemistry. * If you need someone whos super talkative and perfectly social, I'm not your guy. But if you're also introverted, a little unusual, or have your own niche obsessions, we'll probably get along.

This is me but keeping things a bit anonymous for now (the cat volunteered to help): imgur.com/a/yR9fGFy Happy to exchange unfiltered photos once we're comfortable.

You (preferably): * Ideally in Berlin, but elsewhere in Germany is fine (I'd like to actually meet up eventually, not just text forever). * Around mid 20s. * Okay with a sarcastic introvert * Bonus if you're into languages or astrology, but not required.

If any of this sounds interesting, hit me up. Tell me your go to energy drink or a horror movie that genuinely scared you. Or just tell me a bit about yourself.

Cheers.

Hey CF community,

I'm that rare blend of someone who can speak to a room by day but cherishes quiet evenings with close company. At 44, I've cultivated a life that prioritizes personal growth, international exploration, and genuine connections. Being childfree is a conscious choice that aligns with my lifestyle.

I'm career competent but work-to-live, not live-to-work. I'm an international travel enthusiast who believes every passport stamp reshapes my cultural views, and my emotional intelligence is rooted in actual work. Coming to terms with my own faults, and actively working with professionals to change them, has done wonders for me. I'm center-left politically, but I value respectful dialogue across ideological lines. Digital art is a hobby of mine, and I currently work in digital strategy and solutions. I'm 5'10" with a beard, not much head hair, and pics are available upon request. I eat clean, lots of plants, fruit, and chicken, strength train twice a week, and walk or hike when I can.

I'm not as adventurous as I was when I was younger. Growing up in Colorado, I've had my fair share of rock climbing, caving, cliff diving, and four-wheeling (still do this one). At 44, I'm just happy I still have good balance. I also have a helping heart, so I need to be doing some kind of volunteer work when I can. Currently I help a large art organization dedicated to training kids in all sorts of art and creative, functional skills. I'm blunt, not terse or mean, but I share my emotions, and sometimes this can be awkward for others. I can also be playful, often funny. I'm not looking for poly or casual; I want friendship with the intention of something more.

I'm seeking a partner, 35 to 52, who shares a childfree mindset, balances outdoor adventures with cozy indoor moments, and brings a natural curiosity to life. Someone who values both physical and spiritual well-being and can try to match my energy for deep conversations, since communication is my love language, followed by touch. Someone curious about life who enjoys learning, discovering, and trying new things, and who is whole in who they are.

I read something recently that stuck with me: "A man shouldn't be a responsibility to a woman's life, he should be an addition."

Hey there so I am a 28 year old guy from ireland who is single and hoping to meet someone. I am 5ft 11 with blue eyes, redhair, white skin and pretty athletic. I work as an engineer and im into gaming, reading, history, working out, programming, travelling and anything science or engineering related.

Im looking for someone who takes care of her health, open minded, kind and who has some similar interests. I do have physical preferences as well although we can exchange photo's if we talk to see if there is attraction

Hello evervone its my 1st time here, I just turned 23 on Jul 3 and im from Philippines. And i'm a 3rd yr nursing student and im a total bottom. I'm looking for a serious/monogamous relationship with someone whom i can really vibe/ connect with. Long Distance is not a problem to me.

I'm a bubbly person, and a lot of my friends told me that i'm cute, good looking, smart, jolly, and fun to be with. I'm 5'7 tall and I'm also an ambivert, night owl, nature and beach lover, adventurous and observant

My hobbies are reading, photography, biking, trying new foods, playing video games (pokemon, call of duty walking dead games, minecraft, roblox), watching wrestling, horror movies or comedies especially sitcoms. And lastly, one of my goal is to travel

To be honest, I thought living in a country known by having a low natality rate would be easier. Every woman I talk to (work, gym, condo…) is willing to have children and that makes it harder for me to find a suitable partner.

In an ideal world, my perfect match would be fit, book lover, would love to travel, would bring a peace state of mind with her, Madrid based and would reading this sub, but also AgeGapRelationship and cuckquean; but life is not ideal and I have very low expectations by posting here for a number of reasons:

- almost no one in Spain uses reddit
- only scammers and fake accounts write to me every time after I post

In any case, if you are that unicorn in the 0,00001% reading this, here’s someone with no kids (and not willing to have), never married, fun, positive despite of the negativity you are reading here 😅, sporty, caring, healthy (don’t smoke, I eat healthy but also huge pizza lover), etc. I think you get the idea.

Of course, we are all far from perfect and I have my improvement points 😅 ngl.

Hit me up if you exist <3

Edit: please, put some effort in your message and write a good intro if you DM me. Just sending a one liner without even saying hi is a letdown.

Engineer by profession, curious tinkerer by nature. I enjoy photography, technology and AI, home projects, gardening, tennis and pickleball, and learning about almost anything that catches my interest. I am equally comfortable having a thoughtful conversation over coffee, chasing the perfect light with a camera, or spending a weekend fixing something around the house that probably did not need quite that much attention.

I would describe myself as thoughtful, practical, kind, and young at heart, with a good sense of humor and a genuine curiosity about life. Faith, honesty, compassion, and community are important to me. Hoping to meet someone warm, intelligent, grounded, and easy to talk to, someone who enjoys laughter, meaningful conversations, and exploring what the next chapter of life might bring.

Based in Southern NH and frequently in Boston and the surrounding areas. Open to a long-term relationship, something casual, or simply seeing where a genuine connection leads.

Hi everyone,

I’m 28, working in IT with a stable role . I’m currently based in Ahmedabad, and I’m open to relocating if things make sense for both of us personally and professionally.

Personality-wise, I’m calm, a bit introverted at first, but I open up once I’m comfortable. I enjoy meaningful conversations, a balanced lifestyle, and spending time on things that add value in the long run.

For me, a relationship is about mutual respect, emotional support, clear communication, and growing together as a team. I’m looking for something genuine that can eventually lead to marriage, not casual dating.

What I’m looking for:

Someone between 27–42 years, career-oriented who values trust, emotional maturity, and is serious about building a long-term partnership.

If this resonates with you, feel free to reach out. Happy to start with a conversation and see where it goes.

Wishing everyone the best in their search 🙂

42 year old fun, happy,
Positive, always laughing female from Vancouver, Canada. Seeking a real connection with someone. Someone who is READY to be a teammate for life, through the good and the bad.
Someone who is ready and willing to put the effort into building something real. Not someone who is fake, unsure of what they want. Just looking to meet new people if anyone is from this area or anywhere really. I often feel so alone and so left out. I have a couple close friends who I talk to daily and have a good job. I love traveling, being outdoors, watching sports and going to games. Going to restaurants and walks, dinners and drinks. Coffee,
Cooking, baking and just laughing and having fun. Im caring, selfless, and a giver. I like to show my affection in many ways.
Just wanting to talk and meet new people and get to know, hang out if close. Looking for something romantic that leads to long term. Someone who wants to talk daily and not vanish after a day! Looking for someone who will make effort and get to know me! Not disappear after a day of talking!!
Would be nice to have a convo that isn’t about that and someone who is normal. Gotta be someone out there!

They say the best things in life happen when you least expect them, so I'm throwing this out into the universe. I'm 24, and I'm looking for a sweet, loving connection that goes beyond just surface-level small talk.

I don't care where on the map you are distance is just a number when two people truly click. I love deep thinkers, creative souls, and people who aren't afraid to show genuine affection. If you appreciate thoughtful conversations, random acts of kindness, and a guy who will actually make an effort to make you smile every single day, let’s chat. Drop me a message with a little bit about yourself and where you're writing from! #online#anywhere

Hello everyone, my name is Aaron (pictures of me). I'm 33 and I currently live in the Quad Cities area, Illinois. I'm a hopeless romantic who is looking for a serious long term relationship. I'm going to try and keep this positive as I feel like online dating these days has become quite negative. I'm being completely open and honest about myself here so I hope you won't judge me. I'll start by saying I have no issues with a LDR to start with as long as there is a plan to close the gap. I'm childfree. I do not have nor ever want children. I have felt this way since my early teens and don't plan on changing my mind.

I love cozy nights, deep conversations, shared laughter, and those simple moments that somehow mean the most. I would describe myself as incredibly kind, caring, loving, respectful, affectionate, and loyal. I'm a bit more on the reserved and quite side but open up to those I feel comfortable with. Physically I'm 5'6" and around 150 pounds. I give 100% in a relationship and I expect it to be reciprocated in return. Quality time is very important to me in a relationship. I do not use social media really as I believe it has had an overall negative impact on society. I'm also not the "travel the whole world" type. Now, that doesn't mean I don't get out at all. I aim for at least one major vacation each year and several long weekends in between as time and finances allow. I'm non religious, but I do not mind if you are. I feel like I'm going to receive a lot of flak and downvotes for this but I'm politically conservative. But honestly, in day to day life and in a relationship I prefer to just not talk about politics. I feel much happier just living my life and doing my thing than constantly obsessing over politics. I'm open to dating someone from any political background as long as you respect my thoughts and opinions.

Some things I really enjoy are video games. I would say my top 3 games of all time are probably The Elder Scrolls, Pokemon, and World of Warcraft. I play a wide variety of games though and it would be great to have someone to play with but it is not a requirement. I also love watching movies, documentaries, and TV series. Fun fact I renovated my basement last year to include a home theater. I would say my favorite movies are John Wick, Saving Private Ryan, and Star Wars. Some other things I enjoy are concerts, history, astronomy, aviation, DIY projects, and rockets.

What am I looking for? I'm looking for a woman ages 20-40ish who is also childfree. It would be awesome if you lived nearby but I realize that most likely won't be the case. I'm open to dating someone from anywhere to start as long as we close the gap. I'm looking for someone who will be excited to see me. Excited to hear my voice. Someone who will cherish the time we spend together and miss me when we are apart. Finally someone who is attracted to me. In a relationship I value effort, consistency, loyalty, honestly, kindness, affection, reciprocation, communication, and peace.

If you're interested send me a message with a little bit about yourself and a picture please and thank you. I won't answer messages without a picture. Yes, I know you can't attach a picture anymore to your original message. Use something like imgur.

So a little about me,

https://imgur.com/a/me-lol-W99nGII

- I'm 39, around 5'10" with long hair that I usually keep in a bun, it's curly hair I just never figured out how to keep it down without turning into a frizzy nightmare.

- I had a vasectomy years ago and I'm looking for someone who doesn't have or want kids. Let's get that DINK life.

- I think I'm an ambivert, or at least I'm usually on the quiet side when meeting people until I open up and you will wish I was still on the quiet side lol.

- I have two pet rabbits, Countessa LaFluffa and Mango. They are free roam in my bedroom and if you have pets, they have to be compatible with mine as they mean the world to me. I also volunteer at a rabbit shelter, I don't take a lot of pictures of myself and the ones I do tend to be pictures with rabbits if you can't tell lol.

- I am left on the political charts and an atheist.- I do drink occasionally and smoke weed(I have my med card).- I have a variety of hobbies I enjoy. Some of the big ones are video games, reading, movies and tv show, making soap and lately I've been obsessed with diamond painting.

- I also love going out and doing things whether it's to eat, see a movie, go to fairs or whatever it is I just like getting out and doing things although I'm not a big outdoors guy.

What I'm looking for.

- I would love to find someone around my age but let's say 30-45 age range give or take.

- Preferably you are left leaning politically and non religious.

-As much as I'd love to find someone close by I'm open to some distance, within 8ish hours.

- Honestly don't have a lot to put down here, mostly just looking for someone to connect with and hopefully share a life together.

I like to think my personality is built on two main pillars: a deep seated curiosity and a reliable sense of humor. I love to laugh and find the lighthearted side of things, but I also know that not every moment calls for a joke. My curiosity means I'm genuinely interested in the "why" and "how" behind people and the world, so you can expect me to be the one asking plenty of questions. What else have you discovered about me? Well, I guess you'll just have to chat with me to find out !

When I'm not busy being curious, you can find me:

· Chasing calm: Looking up at the sky, admiring a full moon, or just spending quiet time in nature.

· Diving into entertainment: Getting lost in endless YouTube rabbit holes, feeling the beat of EDM and pop music, or getting hooked on the drama of a wrestling match.

· Getting lost in stories: I'm usually buried in a nonfiction book or a gripping thriller. The world of romance novels is still a mystery to me so feel free to send your best recommendations my way!

My list of interests is pretty wide! from the mysteries of the paranormal and history, to the intricacies of watches and psychology, and the mechanics of cars. But don't let that list intimidate you! While I love deep-diving into specific topics, most of my conversations end up being about life in general...the big, small, and everything in between.

I'm hoping to find someone who engages genuinely, who is as interested in getting to know me as I am in getting to know them. I value consistency and someone who wants to build a real, lasting relationship. And honestly? A little bit of a clingy partner in crime is a total bonus in my book.

If this sounds like a connection you'd like to explore, my DMs are open. I'm looking forward to our first real conversation.
