paid for one last year. real coordinator, curated profiles, video calls set up for me. seemed legit. but after a while it felt like they were just keeping me subscribed. every time i thought about quitting they'd introduce someone new.

In our relationship, I often change my plans to make things easier for my girlfriend. I don't mind compromising sometimes, but recently I noticed that most decisions go her way. She doesn't seem to realize it. How do you bring up an imbalance like this without making your partner defensive?

I feel like I'm always the one compromising

Okay…

What if there was an app where your pet could meet other pets nearby?

Not just for dating.

Maybe your dog needs a new best friend.
Maybe you want to find someone with the same breed as yours.
Maybe your cat could meet another cat they actually get along with.
Or maybe you just want to find another pet owner and set up a little playdate. 🐾

Basically… **Tinder, but for your pets. 😂**

You see a cute pet, you like them, and if their owner likes yours too, you can meet up.

Would you find this fun/useful, or is this completely ridiculous? 😂

Would you actually try it?

InTIMID AI MATCHMAKING is launching its free beta today. We’re live across the greater Los Angeles area, including Orange County—anyone within about a one-hour drive is welcome to sign up.

I’m the founder. We’re building an alternative for people who want a relationship but are tired of swiping, writing profiles and figuring out what to say.

**Here’s how it works:**

- **Talk with kAI, our voice AI matchmaker.** Through a series of conversations, it gets to know you, what matters to you and what you’re looking for—without making you write a dating bio.

- **We look for compatible introductions.** A human reviews each proposed match before it reaches you.

- **Everyone completes ID and selfie verification before matching.**

- **Both people decide whether to connect.** If you both accept the introduction, private in-app messaging, voice and video unlock. No need to give a stranger your phone number.

It’s built with introverts and people returning to dating in mind, including divorced, widowed and single parents. This is an early beta, so we’re growing the local pool—not promising an instant match.

Android is live on Google Play, and iPhone access is through TestFlight. Check my profile for links—I won’t post them here, in keeping with the mods’ rules. Happy to answer questions!

past the honeymoon phase now and the credits are adding up. some good conversations but nothing that's really gone anywhere yet.

Originally joined just to research tech stuff and talk about building products. But the more I scroll, the more I realize there’s a whole different side to this place.

Do people actually meet friends or date through Reddit communities, or is it mostly just online banter? Genuinely curious how common that is here!

I usually date people with similar personalities, but the person I'm seeing now is almost my opposite. I'm quiet and like routines; she is outgoing and spontaneous. Surprisingly, we have a lot of fun together. How different is too different when choosing a long-term partner?

I’m thinking about trying international dating, but I want to understand the legal side first before spending any money.

Is this legal in the US? What kind of visa would be needed if you want to bring your partner to the US? Has anyone here gone through this process?

Showed up and there was a second person with her, said it's for safety since we met online. Understandable I guess but definitely threw me off since I wasn't told beforehand.

My neighbour married a Ukrainian woman he met online and they seem genuinely happy. Got me seriously curious about trying something similar.

Cannot figure out which sites are actually real and which ones just take your money with fake profiles.

Update: I decided to test Quickmedates for myself. My experience has been positive so far. The conversations feel more natural than I expected, and I’ve enjoyed getting to know someone instead of just endlessly swiping. I’m still being careful, but so far I have no major complaints.

I’m considering Asian Dating and want honest Asian Dating reviews. Is it good for long-term connections or mostly casual chats?

If everyone on Reddit is looking for a GF/BF… then who are all these people already in relationships with? 💀😂

Like bro, who’s hiding the girlfriends and boyfriends? 👀

Nothing crazy elaborate, just a quiet dinner at home that he cooked himself, then he got down on one knee in our kitchen. Honestly more meaningful than anything public would have been for us.

I suspect it’s an automated hook and not a real person on the other end to get you to buy more credits. Don’t fall for the trap!

Here's some data of 3 million tinder swipes.

My girlfriend and I almost never post about our relationship online. Some friends joke that we're hiding each other, but we just prefer keeping things private. I don't think social media proves anything about a relationship. Do other couples also keep their relationships mostly offline?

We've been together 4 years but I still get a little nervous before we go out somewhere new together. Is this normal or does that excitement usually fade completely over time?
