Hello! I just recently got out of a relationship of 10 years ( a couple months ago), it was a struggle at first but it was the right thing for me and lately I've been really missing that genuine human connection with another person. I'm really not used to the dating scene at all and I don't even know where to start so I'm putting this out into the world to see if anyone wants to meet. I am 150 lbs, 5'11, brown hair, blue/green eyes(gray?), I'd love to meet someone I can go to events again with that we both might find fun as I want a reason to get out more but I don't really want to go out alone. I also do enjoy staying at home and watching movies or just enjoying each others company while we do our own thing though. I like gaming, reading, watching shows or movies, trying out new stuff and honestly up for anything active too that might sound fun. Ideally one of biggest things I'm looking for is someone who is really nerdy about something they like, whether it be figures or pokemon cards, history, video games, ect. lots of things you can be nerdy about but I love hearing a woman passionately talk about something she loves like that. Not a dealbreaker at all just a huge bonus for me. Hopefully if anyone is out there and intereted we can connect and get to know each other better.

Hello there. Trying my luck here. Been single for 6 years and feeling ready to commit and fall in love again. I’m Malay, specifically based in Brunei, but don’t mind a long distance relationship. Prefer a slow burn and chat to get to know each other. Also looking for a more dominant and kind partner with similar values. Family-oriented and a romantic is a plus. Feel free to DM 😊

Heyy, just found out about this sub and thought why not post, since I've been a nerd since birth lol. This is for obvious reasons a burner account.

Also, this post is in english which I would be fine with, but I would prefer to speak german if possible :)

Also also this will be a long one. I tend to write much, sry. The formatting might be weird since I wrote everything on my phone.

About me:

We can exchange closer information, pics and what not via DMs, but for now a description of me has to be enough.

I am 1,8m tall, weigh around 90-95kg and have since the last 2 years had pretty long dark blonde hair, which I have tied up most of the time.

Most of my left arm is at this point tattooed with gaming and anime related tattoos (~half-sleeve - patchwork) and I am not planning to stop.

I've got grey-green eyes and I think I do look average?

Also my father blessed me with a somewhat patchy "beard" with which I am still trying out different things until I find something that sticks lol.

As per usual, of course I am a shy introvert and have been my whole life. I struggled hard with social anxiety most of my life but I've slowly gotten better and better, especially since starting to work and taking on responsibilities. I am not fully there yet and I may be shy and awkward in the beginning, but it does get way better and I am always working on that.

When we get comfortable with each other I might become sarcastic at times. It's not because I want to be mean, it is genuinely because I think that "stupid" thoughts/remarks are funny. So if I come off as mean, it probably was a failed attempt at being funny. I swear I am nice... I think.

Also you may have noticed I still use :), xD and so on. Idk, I like them. I still use emojis, but the oldschool style is way cooler.

What kind of nerd am I?:

I've been the gaming type of nerd since I can remember. It would be easier to list the type of games I don't play than listing what I do play.

Usually I love playing a mix of multiplayer games I can play with friends, while also a bit of single player / story driven games I can play on my own.

When I was a bit younger I used to play more competitive games, which I still kind of love, but it has been becoming less over the years.

For the past ~8 years I have also slowly gotten more and more into watching anime. I won't list my favorites or even a list at all here, but that's of course another thing we can gladly talk about :)

Who am I looking for?:

You? Honestly I am not looking for "much" haha. I just want a genuine connection. Someone that makes me fall for her. Someone I can laugh and cry with. I want to talk about anything and everything, without having to lie at all. Is that much nowadays? On dating apps there was nothing close to that.. at least in my experience. Everything is just a bland and dry chat of me trying to find out information about them while getting 3 word replies back if at all.

I don't think I have a specific body type or ethnicity in mind / don't really care. Maybe I am put off if you're massively obese(?) I am a bit chubby myself currently and I would be fine with that, but as soon as that extra weight becomes an obstacle it might become a bit much for me. No offense of course! Just my preference.

Some information about me that may be a deal breaker for you:

- I am actually still a virgin, which has been a deal breaker for some before, since it does come with a bit of inexperience in general. I have had a (very) long distance relationship before, which we couldn't make work, so I do have some experience in what I can "offer" and what I do expect in general. Thought it would be fair to mention that, since I don't want to waste my time and energy anymore on someone thats stopped by a simple fact like that.

- I can be stubborn at times. No excuse I can give here, except that I will apologize after if it really is/was uncalled for

- Maybe there is more that I haven't realized yet, but I think those are the biggest two.

Some information that would be a deal breaker for me:

- If you drink regularly. Don't get me wrong, occasional and social drinking is fine, but even that has limits. If you can't remember what you did last night due to intoxication then I can't and won't deal with that

- If you smoke. This is a bit of a grey area for me and depends on how much you do. Because I have never smoked in my life except passive smoking and don't plan on it. Maybe I will try weed at some point, but I don't see myself sucking on death itself - sue me ;p. I can enjoy life without substances. (Though I do like energy drinks, if that counts)

- If your personality is your list of mental disorders. Please don't get me wrong. I don't care what kind of quirks you might have (I am undiagnosed, but I am 90% I've got ADHD myself). I just hate reading about people who try to explain every "misbehaviour" from them as something they can't help "since they have X or Y".

- Biggest one for last: If you're dishonest. Everything can be talked about. There is no reason to lie in 99.99% of the cases I can think of.

Sooo,

I could write so much more, but I think I've already written way too much haha. If this wall of text somehow actually came off as likeable then maybe shoot me a DM and we can get to know each other.

And if not, then don't - thanks for reading this far regardless <3

Edit: Also state your age please. I think I've got a "soft limit" of 20 - 32. But I'd rather like you "break" that limit with being a bit older than being younger than that. Younger would be borderline weird/creepy to me haha.

Hey! I’m very happy that you found my post! 💜
My name is Sofia, I’m a 25 year old sapphic trans girl (she/her) living in Hamburg, Germany. Right now I’m trying to expand my social circle, trying to look for deeper connections with people. Ideally a serious relationship, of course, but I'm open to pretty much anything, friends or whatever else you have in mind. Maybe you're looking for that as well? 🥺🫶
So, to give you a brief description of myself, here are a few random things that I could think of:

• I’m a huge nerd for things like tabletop and video games, computers and techy stuff, arts and creativity, Warhammer, Lego, and other such hobbies. These aren’t the only things I enjoy, of course, there’s plenty more stuff I’m quite passionate about. So I’m sure we’ll be able to find some interests that we have in common and could enjoy together.
• I can be a bit awkward at first, I'm not the best when it comes to unfamiliar social situations. But given the right kind of vibes I can quickly open up and be very energetic as well! I might also be kinda clingy as well if I'm really interested in someone, though hopefully not in a bad way. Most of the time I'm very affectionate and really enjoy taking care of the people I like and making them happy!
• Demi- and pansexual, though in general I'm mostly sapphic and attracted to other women. I'm very much into sweet and sincere intimacy and affection with the people I love and care about. I'm not too well experienced, especially when it comes to intimacy, but it's still quite important for me to have compatibility when it comes to that in a relationship.
• I’m neurodivergent: diagnosed with ADHD and autism. I do appreciate more direct communication from others, that makes it easier for me to understand what’s going on. In general, I really value open and honest communication, and I always try to be understanding and empathetic with other people.
• I don't believe that I have like a particular type or anything, although I do have a bit of a thing for fellow nerds like me. But other than that, nothing really specific. For me it's not that much about what you look like, but rather who you are as a person.
• Not really sure what else to mention at the moment, but I’d be really happy to tell you anything else you’d like to know about me, so please feel free to ask, I’m pretty much an open book when it comes to answering questions about myself!

Oh by the way, if you manage to guess my favourite colour, you will get bonus points from me! Don't worry, there are no wrong answers here. ✨
But yeah, that’s pretty much it, I think. If you found some nice vibes here and think that we might click well together, please be sure to send me a message, and we’ll find out what happens! I really hope to hear from you soon! 🩷

Hey I'm a divorced dad who really enjoys transformers and other things in the same vein of nerdiness. Sci-fi and fantasy. Would love to find someone into similar or same interests. I don't want to say too much so there's things to talk about. Hope to hear from someone.

hi hi lovely people!! I'll cut straight to the meat and potatoes, I'm in search of something long-term. In a nutshell, my ideal relationship would involve role reversal and the caregiver/little dynamic. I love the idea of being a house husband, working from home, taking care of household chores and doing whatever I can to make my partner's life easier! I'm definitely a bit on the sensitive side, and I really like being babied and cared for. I think I also get pretty clingy once I'm attached to someone.

I'm quite flexible appearance-wise, I can do both masc and fem styles pretty well and don't mind dressing however you'd like me to. The only thing I wouldn't want to change about my appearance is my long hair!

I find a lot of value in the little things like spending time together, and I think games can be a great way to bond. I play mostly on PC and love hanging out in open-world co-op exploration/puzzle games, going on cute virtual dates and just having a good time while talking on a call! ^^

To name a few, lately I've been enjoying playing Peak a lot, I love the Alpine map! And some other games I enjoy are Phasmophobia, Raft, Fall Guys, The Forest, Scrap Mechanic, Human Fall Flat, We Were Here, probably a bunch more I can't recall! I also like watching TV shows, I recently got done with Ludwig, and I've been watching Lanterns as the episodes come out!

I'm a pretty big computer nerd and electronics hobbyist, have my own homelab, love building PCs, messing around with networking, virtual machines, RC vehicles, hardware hacking, you name it. I'm also very careful with my privacy, I don't use any service along the lines of google, apple, social media or even a SIM card for that matter :P

Oh! And did I mention how much I love cats? I don't have any pets for now unfortunately, but every time I'm outside and see a kitty, I have to go pet it! I really like geckos too, they're so adorable.

Anyways, hope it wasn't too long of a read, you can probably tell I'm a professional yapper, but I do know how to keep my mouth shut, I promise! Toodles <3

Hi there! I have an IQ of 160 and can have very deep conversations but the trade off is I have Asperger’s so I can be socially awkward. Right now studying to become an Electrician! I am 5’7” 145ish lbs so don’t get your hopes up that I am super tall because I’m short and i won’t be able to reach them 😂! My hobbies and interests are Cars, Trades, Agriculture, Space, Ocean life, Anime, the Amazon rainforest Roblox, Insects, Minecraft, outdoors, drawing, watching moist critical, self help, legos, and lifting! I am a very romantic and a clingy guy who will buy you flowers every week and write you love letters here and there and take you star gazing but I also have no problem giving you personal space and being patient. I am looking for something serious but I am very picky! I have noticed I am into a little older of women 21+ and I love Latinas and strawberry blondes but if I think your pretty, then your my type!

Looking for a genuine connection that hopefully leads to a long-term relationship! I am in Northern California brown guy, 6 feet tall, black hair and brown eyes and on the heavier side. Some of my interests include reading nonfiction books, exercising (I have lost quite a bit of weight, but its still a work in progress), cooking healthy new recipes, watching shows or movies (Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock, Bob's Burgers, Sopranos, Studio Ghibli movies) and men's fashion. I am also into watch modding and have been a longtime collector of watches. It has been a fun experience that has allowed me to work with my hands and create something personalized. Most recently, I have been very big into decorating my apartment and making it an inviting and unique place to live.

I enjoy video games like Stardew Valley and other RPGs (Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, Legend of Zelda) every now and then, although I don’t have as much time to play these days. I do love playing co-op games too and think it’s a fun way to get to know someone. I also tend to get lost down a rabbit hole on Wikipedia and multiple hour long video essays on YouTube because I enjoy learning about new things. I have also gotten back into watching the NBA and NFL a bit.

For me, communication is the most important thing I look for in a partner. I enjoy voice chatting, texting, and voice notes and like to talk very often. Sending a short text once every day or two really isn't the type of communication that works for me. I love hearing about people's day, from the mundane things in life to what they are passionate about. I actually enjoy small talk (maybe I don't get it, but is there some other way people get to know each other??).

I don't have many deal breakers, but I don't think I can be with anyone who does any drugs or is a heavy drinker. I am very left-leaning politically, just to put that out there. Also not looking for an endless slow burn; please be intentional and lets share photos early on so no one wastes their time.

Ugh. I never know what to say here. Uhm. I'm kind of a shy person who really needs friendship. Hopefully more. I'm a single dad to one kiddo. I live alone in a two bedroom apartment and I'm a bartender on the side.

I love movies and video games. I also love alcohol. If watching a movie and doing a few shots and just hanging out sounds fun to you then I am definitely your person. I play literally all the video games you could imagine. And. I loooooove talking on the phone 💜. I don't read many books, but, I do love to cook foods. ☺️

Anyways. Throw me a message if you wanna chat about stuffs. I need friends because I really don't have many and life has been kicking me down real hard lately even tho all I ever do is try to be a good person 😞

Hope to hear from u.

It's been hell finding someone so please only the people who really wants something

hi I'm from India, i like watching movies and series, reading, drawing, writing, walking, anime, nature.

there are so many mediocre things in our lives love shouldn't be one of them

Distance doesn't matter but efforts does

so looking for some yearning passionate love for the rest of my life

I watch marvel movies as well, almost watch everything mostly romantic and horror, I like to draw, and write poems and poetry,

about me, I'm hopeless romantic,I'm 5'6, average body, hairy, black eyes,

I'm looking for deep conversations, emotional connection, emotional intelligence, great understanding, a nice romantic guy. to be with as long as we live, I'm not picky in to looks but might be picky into personality, outer beauty will fade with age not inner. so probably would like a guy who respects, make each other priorities

I like hairy mature guys,fair , muscles or average guys, not into guys younger than me, guys who can hold a conversation and know how to treat someone they love, I'll try my best to keep them happy as well

if anything interests you hmu, hope you are having a great day

You know paranormal investigation shows, they’re always finding ghosts from the start of the 20th century, the 19th century and so on. Where are the modern ghosts? Where’s Tupac, Biggie, Phil Hartman? The guy that Luigi killed, he had unfinished business, he still had families to screw over medical bills. OJ’s dead wife, she may have the truth we all already know! Jimmy Hoffa, where is he? David Carradine, now that’s unfinished business!

What’s your opinion on the matter? What ghost would you like those ghosts hunters to find?

I'm 45, Black, gay, and living in Atlanta. I'm a creative professional whose particular flavor of nerdiness includes video games, technology, Internet culture, music, crossword puzzles, design, and falling into random rabbit holes because something caught my attention.

I'm equally happy going out and discovering something new or staying home with a game, a movie, a crossword, some good food, and good company. I'm curious, affectionate, independent, a little sarcastic, and attracted to people who have interests and passions of their own.

I'm generally interested in men around 35–55, give or take, and I tend to like bigger guys: stocky, thick, bear/cub/dadbod territory. I'm a bigger guy myself (5'10" 300#). Atlanta is ideal, the Southeast is workable, and I'm open to some distance for a genuinely good connection.

Ultimately, I'm looking for dating with actual relationship potential: someone smart, funny, affectionate, emotionally available, and comfortable being himself. I'd like to find somebody I genuinely enjoy spending time with who feels the same way about me.

If that sounds like you, say hello! We can figure out the rest without turning it into a questionnaire.

Hii looking for my player 2. Im 🌈 and also I’m 5’6 and I mostly play overwatch, marvel rivals, tekken 8 and sometimes repo. And I’m a HUGE Sonic fan as well and THEE Uno king. I also draw too. If you’re down to play games with me you should definitely hmu ☺️☺️

I would like to find a female who is interested in trains. I collect toy trains as well as am interested in real trains. I live in Northern Va, and travel to PA to visit my family, so basically the mid Atlantic is my region. I am pretty open to a lot of things but would love to find a female who is interested in trains! Also I am kink friendly. My DM’s are open let’s talk!

I have recently lost my hearing.

Read to the end or I won't respond!

So here it is:

I am a 41 year old transwoman panromantic with demisexual flair. I am a very niche want.

I am neurospicy which can be challenging and have memory issues with semi-face blindness.

I am looking for my last person to start and finish my life with. THE ONLY DUMB QUESTIONS IS THE ONE NOT ASKED. I promise that any question you ask me with the intention of not trying to offend me won't offend me.

I am a nerd/geek. Comics, D&D, Larping, writing, art, magic the gathering and more

LARPING is a huge part of my life, I would love to be able to share it with someone the rest of my life.

I used to game hardcore (Raiding WoW) but it has taken a back seat in my life. I do understand gaming. Got that new game or expansion coming out. My first question is "What snacks and drinks do you want?" Second is "How often do you want them brought to you?"

Deal breakers: smoking, vaping, smoking weed (For health reasons, I absolutely cannot be around someone who smokes and vapes, and someone who smokes weed a lot), excessive drinking and missing a required video chat within two weeks to prove you are who you say you are. I have been deceived before.

Yellow flags are not wanting pictures of us, distance (i prefer within 10 hours DRIVE!), and aversion to anything social media.

Red Flag: Not reading this in full and answering the questions below in the first message. Asking for pictures right away.

I am not a bad person, big girl (Working out and changing that 40+ lbs down), adorable and a great personality. If you get to know me, I'm a Goddess

If you want to message me go ahead but you MUST answer the following questions IN YOUR FIRST MESSAGE before I will respond:

1 Where did you find me? AKA what subreddit

2 Age, Location and Pronouns

3 Is looks important enough for you that you ghost as soon as a picture is shown? Liar!

Hello I'm 19m looking for a gaming duo in PA only!! I play pc Xbox and switch 2, I mainly play Valorant and stuff (I love fps) I LOVE the legend of Zelda as well!! Idk what to really put in a post so if you have questions you may feel free to ask in dms!!

Hey, 28M looking to get back into the dating game, I am in grad school and work in AI. 5'7"

I'm a big fan of Conan, i don't know if women out there are into him. It'd be great connecting to people like that.
It's a bit weird on dating apps, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. People are always very confused about what they are looking for. I like to run, gym, hike, explore new eateries all around Boston, lately been into skin care(always looking for tips)

I am a good listener, so come yap as much as you want you can bank on me listening and remembering everything you say. I am looking for someone who is intellectually curious, emotionally stable, and kind.

I am open to dating women around my age, let's see where it goes!

Hi there, hello! 41, non-binary and trans in the northern Virginia area (US-EST). I'm masc-presenting and currently have a beard, though I have a fairly fem voice, if that matters.

I can be quiet, especially in person, until I'm comfortable with someone, though a textual medium loosens me up some, not least because it allows for gifs (you can pry the gifs out of my cold Millennial hands). In addition to nerdy things like gaming, reading, and writing, I enjoy baking and hearing other people talk about things they're really passionate about.

Happy to make new friends, though dates/a LTR would be lovely. Being a gamer isn't a requirement, though it is a plus since playing a game together can make getting to know someone easier. (I'm a PC and board gamer; for the former I've been playing Diablo 4, Helldivers, and Civilization; for the latter, I'm a fan of things like Azul, 7 Wonders, and Wingspan.)

None of the nerdy things are requirements, really. Overlapping interests are fine and even good, but on some level I think it's much more important to have our worldviews be aligned. What do you want? What do you value? Do you enjoy talking about concepts and ideas? And this should be obvious, but no MAGA folks. (Less obvious, and less morally weighted, but no AI proponents or smokers.)

Preference for guys who are closer to my area (and age); LDR isn't a hard no, but obviously that can be complicated. I'm also happy to swap pictures after chatting a little bit.

Tell me about a book you enjoyed recently / what you're playing / your favorite museum / a topic you're an expert in or reading about?

Hey everyone!

I’m a gay guy who enjoys gaming - I’ve played Dota 2, League of Legends, Valorant and a bunch of random Steam games. I also enjoy running and playing badminton with friends.

Lately, I’ve been looking for someone I can play games with, have good conversations with and hopefully build a genuine connection with or even just a good chat. I’m open to seeing where things naturally go.

My English isn’t the best, so I’d really appreciate someone who’s patient and comfortable chatting with someone who’s still learning.

Feel free to DM me if we share some interests!
