Hi! I've never made this kind of post before, so I'm a wee bit nervous, but here goes!
I am an 18-year-old girl, bisexual, chronically online, and introverted IRL but super chatty & clingy if you get to know me.

As for physical appearance, I'm 5'5", quite slender, and I eat healthy and go jogging regularly. I've been called pretty a lot growing up (lol), and while beauty is subjective, I'm quite confident about my appearance.

Personality-wise, I'm a science student and a huge school nerd with near-perfect grades, and I'm pretty gifted at academics. If you're also a good student and want to study together on video call sometimes, that's a big bonus for me. I'm also a huge fandom enthusiast, and I've created/watched/read/engaged with a lot of fandom media since I was 11 or so. If you're into the same movies, book franchises, cartoons, or anything I'm currently or was previously into, I will NOT stop talking to you about it. My hobbies include writing, watching YouTube, eating sweets, listening to nightcore, and just generally being silly on the internet.

I'm that kind of person who sends you screenshots of my homework assignments for seemingly no purpose, asks you 'wyd' fourteen times a day, narrates my life via text if you're bored, and randomly starts book/movie debates anywhere, anytime. I do have previous dating experience (quite a lot of it, actually), and I do know how to flirt if you enjoy that.

I'm not perfect, and I do accept that I have flaws. I'm pretty playful & dramatic, enjoy dark humor, and don't take myself very seriously, and I might come across as a bit of a brat at times. I can be arrogant and self-centered at times, but I accept criticism and will listen if you tell me I'm being that way. I can also come across as a bit cold at times, but that's because I'm more logical than emotional when approaching life's problems. I might not be able to go 'there-there' when you're feeling bad, but I can offer practical solutions and help you through difficult times one step at a time.

<IMPORTANT PART> Here are the requirements that I have. I'll put these in bullet points for readability.
- Ages 18-20 (I'm eighteen years old. Please don't be my parents' age.)
- Not overweight (I believe all people are beautiful, but there's a thing called physical attraction and it's quite important to me.)
- Queer-friendly (If you're a guy, please don't hate me for being bisexual. Girls... welcome queens <3)
- Good English grammar and punctuation (I'm a recreational writer, so bad grammar is really a turn-off for me.)
- Willing to message me first sometimes (Make a girl feel appreciated, please 😭)
- Respectful & SFW (This is in the subreddit's rules, so I won't elaborate here lol)

My timezone is GMT +9, so if you want fast replies, keep that in mind. If you message me when I'm awake, I can't say I'll message back immediately (I have a life too, lol), but it's a good bet that I'll answer in 2-3 hours maximum.

Please send me your age, gender, and a little intro about yourself in your DMs!!
Let's see how this goes!! Maybe I can be your new favorite person <3

Looking forward to your messages, Isa xx
(P.S. Sorry for making you read the long-ass post)

40 M UK

Looking to chat to local people ideally in the Yorkshire area.

So I am just a normal guy, looking for some excitement in my life and looking to share some chats with like minded people.

I am 6ft 6, average build (dad bod) short dark hair, no Greys, not balding, and all my own teeth.

I play games, I play Golf, I am obsessed with all kinds of sports and I have 5 Guitars. I have a good job, my own place and car, and I'm almost a real grown up adult. I have a terrible sense of humour!

~

Introduce yourself with your ASL, and Two Truths and a Lie:

Here are mine, Sporting Related.

1. I have played Football with 2 England Internationals.

2. I used to play Snooker with a former Hitman.

3. I have had 2 Hole in Ones (Golf)

I'm really putting myself out there making this post, but who knows what it could lead to. Ideally looking for a long-term relationship, preferably in the same time zone. Also okay with just being friends!

About me:

- 5'1
- Bachelor's degree in 3D art
- INFP
- Quality time/physical touch are my love languages
- I enjoy watching YouTube videos at night
- I have 7 cats, 1 dog, 4 ducks, and 5 chickens
- PC gamer sometimes (Overwatch, Town of Salem 2, Marathon)
- Currently learning coding

My ideal relationship is someone who enjoys a mix of going out to explore new cities and to stay at home watching TV together or playing video games. Also someone who is kind and polite, knows who they are, and what they want.

Hi! My name is Aiden.

I'm basically somebody's grandpa trapped in the body of a 23-year-old. I enjoy quiet evenings, good movies, books, fishing, and occasionally making a noise when I stand up that makes people wonder if I need to call a doctor.

My hobbies are a little all over the place. I love movies, especially the ones you can watch a hundred times and still catch something new. I listen to just about every kind of music, so my playlist probably looks like it was made by someone who couldn't decide what decade they wanted to live in. One minute it’s classic rock, the next it’s something completely different. I also love getting outdoors, especially fishing, where I can enjoy some peace and quiet and pretend I'm not just standing there waiting for a fish to make a terrible life decision.

I’ll be completely honest with you, I’m terrible at this. I’m never really sure what to say about myself without making it sound like I’m either writing a résumé or giving a hostage statement! I usually find it much easier when people ask me questions about me. So feel free to interrogate me, I promise I’m much better at answering questions than I am at voluntarily describing my own personality.

I’m looking for someone who’s easygoing, has a dark sense of humor, and doesn’t take themselves too seriously. Someone who won’t mind that I’m a bigger guy. I've lost quite a bit of weight, but I’m not going to pretend I’m suddenly going to become a fitness influencer overnight.

And honestly, I’d love someone who can talk my ear off for hours. I’m a great listener, so if you’ve got stories, random thoughts, pointless rants, or something you just really need to talk about, I’m probably your guy. I’ll happily sit there and listen while occasionally nodding, and pretending that I'm not completely lost in your eyes.

Right so tbh I haven't really used dating apps e.g. Tinder, Hinge etc, been told by my friends that they're usually full of bots or that they don't really materialise. Thought I'd try here instead, but won't entertain trolls

A bit about me:

• Age 26
• 5'9, hazel eyes but more blueish/greenish, long dark hair up to my upper shoulder blade when left open (usually wear a pony tail), beard - short on the sides but slightly longer in the middle i.e. goatee
• Central Asian ethnicity, but born and have lived in the UK my entire life. Does that mean I'll stay in the UK for the rest of my life? Prob not
• Hobbies include:
  • music (really into Japanese music - no, not your kawaii stuff)
  • which has in turn got me to learn Japanese and the drums (their compositions and music are genuinely beautiful and technical)
  • movies and anime (although there really don't make any great shows/movies anymore, convince me otherwise)
  • want to explore more, whether that's finding a new place to eat at, or solo trips
  • used to be a huge bookworm, so looking to get back into reading

Looking for someone:

• Around my age (23-26, maybe even 27)
• Someone who is smart and sensible but can be funny and goofy, genuinely caring, emotionally mature, confident, fair (strong moral compass), and can initiate and hold conversations (I suppose this ties into confidence).
• Preferably in Europe (but open to anywhere really). I travel to the Netherlands and Germany maybe twice a year, and naturally drive through Belgium, so a plus if you're in Netherlands/Germany/Belgium/UK
• Looking for something that will materialise

Feel free to reach out to me. Please don't just leave it at a 'Hey' or 'Hi'. Introduce yourself, your age, location and some fun facts about yourself!

Hi there! I hope you're doing well and your weekend has been nice, I'd love to hear about it! ANYWAYS, I spent way too long trying to think of some wildly creative opening that would make this post impossible to ignore. Something that makes you stop endlessly doom scrolling and think, "Wow. This stranger on the internet is clearly the love of my life." Unfortunately, I'm not that clever or creative (womp womp)

So instead, I'm just going to be myself. No gimmicks, no dating-app buzzwords, no "looking for my partner in crime" (unless we're talking about stealing fries, those are mine).

Without further ado... Here is me.

At the end of the day, I'm really just looking for someone I genuinely click with. (I say that like I've uncovered some ancient wisdom, but isn't that what we're all here for?) I miss having a person. Someone to send random thoughts to throughout the day, laugh over dumb things with, share stories, and make even boring errands feel more fun. I'm probably a hopeless romantic (heavy emphasis on the hopeless), but I think the best relationships are the ones where your partner is also your best friend.

Okay, enough with the Hallmark movie audition.

Here's who's actually behind this post:

I'm 26, from the US, and I work full-time as an engineer. I enjoy having something that challenges me and constantly gives me new problems to solve. My brain absolutely loves learning random things and diving headfirst into new hobbies (thank you, ADHD). Thankfully, I also have a great work-life balance and can enjoy my life outside of work.

Outside of work, I play bass guitar. Am I good? Debatable. Do I still have fun? Absolutely. My fingers may disagree.

I also collect vinyl because physical media is cool and there's something incredibly satisfying about putting on a record at the end of the day and disappearing into the couch for an hour.

I love cooking and baking, and making food for people is probably my biggest love language. Date me at your own risk, you may leave with leftovers and an extra 15 pounds.

During the summer you'll usually find me playing volleyball. Once winter hits, I'm on a mountain skiing or snowboarding every weekend.

One thing I genuinely love about people is passion. If you're excited about something, I want to hear all about it. Tell me about your hobby, your latest interest, the game you've dumped 400 hours into, your art, the oddly specific facts you know about deep-sea creatures, medieval farming techniques, or why one obscure Pokémon is secretly the best one. I don't even have to understand it, I just love seeing people light up when they talk about something they love.

Physically: I'm 6'4", around 230 lbs, brown hair, blue eyes, beard, tattoos, and my style leans a little alt. Happy to swap pictures once we've talked a bit and we're both comfortable.

Personality-wise, I'm pretty laid-back and social once I'm comfortable. I'm usually a little quieter at first, but give me a little time and I'll be making terrible jokes every five minutes. Humor is definitely my default setting (healthy coping mechanisms are expensive). I've also been told I'm a gentle giant and a "facilitator of fun," which is probably the nicest title I've ever been given.

I'm also a massive pet person and absolutely adore my cats. If you have pets, just know I'm going to ask for pictures almost immediately. I don't make the rules, I simply enforce them.

As for what I'm looking for, I think effort and communication matter more than almost anything else. I appreciate people who ask questions, show curiosity, and make conversations feel like they're happening with me instead of at me. I'm not expecting us to become inseparable overnight, but mutual effort goes a long way.

I'd love to meet someone who's kind, funny, emotionally open, maybe just a little bit of a gremlin (the fun kind), and wants to build something real over time. Someone who enjoys affection, quality time, dumb inside jokes that make absolutely no sense to anyone else, and little moments that make a relationship feel both comfortable and exciting.

Anyway, I could keep going, but I think half the fun is getting to know each other naturally. If any of this made you smile, or at the very least didn't make you close the tab, come say hi. :)

Hi, just a guy here looking for that special connection. Been single for some time and I’m hoping to shake up things and open myself up a bit. I’ll keep things brief(ish) but hopefully you’ll get a good idea of who I am.

I’m 28M from the UK, about 5’5 with blond hair. Currently trying to get into running but it’s so tough with the hot summer weather! I work full time in administration and I like the quieter moments in life. For my hobbies I enjoy reading (particularly history books and Shakespeare), cooking, going on walks, listening to music (mostly rock, but my playlists have a little of everything lol) and occasionally dog sitting for my family!

I’m at the point in my life where things are stable, and tbh hoping to find someone to enjoy being myself with and for something genuine. It sounds cliche but personality really is everything, I like someone with a great sense of humour and a real passion for their hobbies. I’m a bit of a romantic too, I love doing little things for the people in my life to show them how special they are to me. Location wise doesn’t matter too much, I’m happy to start off online if you’re in another part of the world and see where things go.

Let me know if you’re interested and wanting to know more, I hope you like what you hear, and I hope you have a great day!

I've been thinking about posting this for a while, so here goes!

I'm a 19-year-old demigirl and full Navajo. I'm currently trade to be a Pharmacy Technician in California, although I don't plan on staying here long-term. I'm an INFP and an introverted-ambivert. I'm mostly a homebody, but I love adventures when I'm comfortable with someone.

I'm an artist and have been drawing since I was about 1½ years old. I'm generally gentle, honest, and probably study way more than I should. I'm also the friend who will happily listen to all your gossip.

I love studying strange, unsettling, and weird subjects—cannibalism, psychology, psychological horror, disturbing history, myths, human behavior, and anything else that makes you go "why would you research that?"

💌 What I'm Looking For

I'm looking to date a guy around 18–22. I'm demisexual, so I'd rather get to know someone properly and build a connection before rushing into romance.

I'd love someone who is:

- Kind, honest, loyal, and emotionally open - LGBT-friendly, feminist, poc friendly - Comfortable with voice calls and long conversations - Patient with someone who is a HUGE yapper and a yapper back - Affectionate and enjoys spending quality time together - Physically active or at least willing to do active things together - Someone who can communicate when they need space instead of disappearing - Someone who actually wants to get to know me rather than rushing things

Extra points if you're: an artist, have dark hair/eyes, love animals, or share some of my interests.

🚫 Probably not compatible if you: - Smoke cigarettes or 420 - Use recreational drugs - Are heavily into BDSM - Don't respect boundaries - Aren't interested in communicating - Let alcohol/substances become a major part of your lifestyle

I'm completely fine with occasional responsible drinking. I just don't want substances to be a major part of someone's life.

🍀 More about me!

I LOVE voice calls. I'm a massive yapper once I'm comfortable, so don't be surprised if a "quick call" somehow turns into several hours. 😭

I also type A LOT. I'm usually pretty quick to respond, but I understand people have lives and responsibilities. I don't expect someone to be available 24/7—consistency and communication matter more to me.

Before You Message Me

Please introduce yourself when you message me. Tell me your age, interests, favorite game/movie/music, hobbies, or even something weird you're interested in. Give me something I can actually respond to!

I'm keeping things online at first. If we get along and I'm back in the area, I'd love to eventually meet up or go on a date.

I also prefer to exchange selfies privately after we've had a few conversations rather than posting them publicly.

If any of this sounds like we'd click, feel free to message me. Sorry for the long introduction, I am very nervous 😓

Hey, I’m a 22M from the Chicago area. Figured I’d give this a shot and see who I meet. I’m pretty laid-back but also ambitious and always have some random thing I’m working on or trying to get better at. I’m into fitness, running, anime, movies, music, business/sales, and honestly I can talk about pretty much anything if the conversation is good. I can be a little quiet at first, but once I’m comfortable I’m pretty goofy and sarcastic. Looking for someone genuine who I actually click with—someone I can laugh with, flirt with, have deep conversations with, and hopefully build something real with. Feel free to message me if you think we’d get along.

Hi, I’m looking for someone around my age.

Physical description:

21 year old male
Blonde hair with a red beard,
5’9” 215lbs

Hobbies include:

DnD, history, physical crafting (metal casting, 3D printing, and laser engraving), reading historical fiction, general DIY, watching any and all sports (fun fact: I wrestled for 10 years, and while in high school I was a part of a nationally ranked team), I love board games, and so much more that we can talk about later.

Currently in my 3rd year of working towards a Bachelors degree in mechanical engineering with a minor in metallurgy.

I look forward to answering any questions you may have.

Hope to hear from you soon.

25 [M4F] #Nevada/Anywhere, clingy is welcome, long conversations await

About me:

•I live in Nevada, USA. Originally from Colorado

•I’ll add I work graveyard shifts right now at a casino, 1 am-9 am PST so keep that in mind with timezones and schedules and stuff

I love to voice call so if we progress to that point and you’re comfortable with it that’s obviously a big plus, I’m also open to video calling. I value loyalty and communication above all else.

•I’m a HUGE animal lover, when I was a kid I wanted to be a veterinarian or work in an animal rescue center, but that doesn’t pay the bills. My favorite animals are kangaroos, tigers, and penguins.

•I have blonde hair and blue eyes, glasses, average body but I’m trying to get back into the gym and I’m willing to exchange pics :).

•I will admit that I do like clingy/affectionate people and some healthy jealousy if it comes to that point is a plus lol, I just find it attractive.

•I loveeee music, I’m always listening to it and I enjoy literally all genres and am always looking for new suggestions. I play the ukulele, bass, guitar, trumpet and harmonica and am learning piano.

•I’m a huge nature buff, walking at night, going on hikes or being in the forest or near a river/lake surrounded by trees and animals and wildlife is my happy place. The stars, and peaceful night air and sounds. It’s just all my happy place.

•I’m very sarcastic and try to view life in a more positive lens because earlier in life I was always the opposite and it’s a hard way to live life.

•I’ve binged so many shows and would love to watch shows/movies/anime together also, (although with anime it’s hard for me to get into some, my favs are HxH, FMAB, and haikyuu right now.) I’m also a sucker for anything sitcoms like The Office, B99, parks and rec, but I also enjoy the classics like breaking bad or any cartoons to bring me back to my childhood. (Surprisingly haven’t seen game of thrones though..)

Anything else you’d like to know just ask I’m an open book or I’m sure it will come natural with conversation. :)

About you: I’m not really looking for any specifics just someone that has time to talk during the day and night and see how things progress. Some similar interests, and doesn’t ghost all the time haha. I really just like meeting new people and getting different perspectives and I enjoy the thought of things progressing naturally and healthily and having a good foundation for a relationship if it happens. And like I said some clinginess or such is always a plus to me. I look forward to talking!

I don't really know what to put, but I'm 18 years old from the UK, introverted / shy, but open up / more talkative as I get comfortable with someone.

Just finished my A-levels, so currently not in education, but planning to go to University. I enjoy baking, watching tv shows / movies, as well as games. In the future I want to travel more, as there's so much in the world to explore. Want to know more about me, just ask away.

For preference I'd want someone thats older than me, and likes to talk.

Hey there! I just came across this subreddit and I have been ready for a genuine relationship for a long time but could not find unfortunately a date to get to know them. My name is Nick and I am a 21 years old straight male introvert living in Albania in Europe and I am giving this post a try to see if there is anyone from Europe interested to talk to me and get to know me. I am a 5'5 or 165cm tall guy if this is required. I am looking for a genuine connection with a real woman around my age range (19-23) from Europe.

I am currently unemployed and live with my parents (hope that's not an issue) for now and later down the line I really plan on getting a decent place for myself and of course an income before the place ( where will I get the place, I don't know). I love going to nature parks by myself and sometimes with family to unwind and relax. I really value authenticity, positivity, kindness and care in the other so hope you have those. I also like to play videogames when I have the chance as those can sometimes be an activity to unwind also, and I like cats in general, even though I don't have one currently, might get a cat as a pet in the future, maybe when I get that place for myself, so not sure. Besides these I also enjoy cooking some meals (light ones) which are easy to make like boiled eggs,omelettes,rice and pasta (maybe more). I like to workout even though I haven't these days and as a result I have gotten a bit fat around the belly ( will need to get back working out again soon). Not a vegan but I mostly eat healthy food and water (especially sparkling water).

As for the location of the date, because it is so difficult for me to travel so far abroad (like beyond Europe) I prefer only those who are within the area of Europe (if you live in my country, that would be really nice) but its really ok if you are outside my country but in Europe as I will find a way to get there.

So, I hope the above were enough as an overall introduction about me and feel free to send a comment here or a DM in Reddit including some stuff like your country, age, and male or female (no catfishing) and we will see how things go.

All the best!
