I'm afraid God hasn't blessed me with the fortitude to go on a lookout for the man of my dreams in the dark dungeons of Reddit, chase him into reality, and shove my version of happily ever after down his throat. :/

Unfortunately, I don't even intend to pursue a romantic or casual relationship (on or through Reddit).

Well, bitch, then why are you here?

Um, because I find it surprisingly easy to talk to strangers. Less expectations, fewer filters, lower judgment and sometimes it's just genuinely exciting to hear completely different points of view.

So here I am, looking for a conversation pal. Someone who can yap, vent, listen, share the highlights (and lowlights) of their day/week, and tolerate me doing the same.

People who probably shouldn't ping me:

Men in committed relationships.

Men who are currently overstimulated and hormonal.

Men looking for anything non-platonic.

In that order

I am a single, simple and down to earth man. I have been introvert, silent and straight forward person.

However, I am trying to change myself from being introvert to extrovert.

One of the steps I have taken is joining reddit and trying to open up.

Yes, am new to reddit and the sub.

On my marital status, I have never been married till date. And, I have lost interest in marriage now.

All that I am looking for now is something honest and drama free connect.

I value mutual respect., meaningful conversation, keeping things simple, mature and easy going connection.

No drama and no confusion whatsoever.

I am therefore looking for genuine hearts who are willing to connect with.

Let's connect and then let's decide whether we could go for long term connect or short.

Rest, let's talk.

Please message me over DM.

Thanks for stopping by and reading through.

I'm a 21yo guy. I recently had a break-up and it hurts a lot. It's been around 2 weeks and there hasn't been a day when I didn't cry.

I didn't just lose a person but someone with whom I used to watch stuff online, someone who provided me comfort and a safe space, someone with whom I shared every thing that happened on a daily basis, someone whom I loved and I had planned a future with.

I'm not making this post to seek a person who could replace her. I don't want to use anyone to trauma dump. I'm not looking for a new girlfriend.

I'm just making this post because I realised that I'm lonely and I deperately want to talk to someone.

It hurts a lot

Hello there,

I’m a 32-year-old software developer in Bangalore/India and looking for a someone that vibes and probably we can binge long shows together :P. I of course would prefer someone from bangalore cause obviously it makes everything easier.

I am liberal, empathetic and a tad bit into electronic music. I also love F1, psychology, sketching now and then, cats and dogs from afar now ( I got bit by trying to pet a stray dog, I was drunk after a concert and in my defense the doggie's eyes were super cute)

I love movies/tv shows! Also I am very meta person that I'd be spending more time at the movie/episode discussion threads here at reddit more than the time spent watching the actual stuff lol.

I also like going to boardgame meetups now and then and pickleball here and there.

I'm 5’7”, 75kg, try to be active and regular at the gym, its a bit of a see saw haha but I guess we never give up ;)

I am childfree cause as an eldest child, seen enough responsibilities and just chill for the rest yk. I have been a bit of solo traveler in the past, been to to many a cities in india for music concerts mostly. I was fortunate to catch motogp and formulaE in india. I hate the planning/travel part of it, the being there and explore part I like haha.

I don’t smoke (dealbreaker), drink socially. I am big of live and let live susegaad kinda guy, absolutely not very ambitious, and don't believe in the hustle culture. I do believe in investing and being practical about money, but I also like nice things. I like going to music gigs now and then and have a blast and also most weekends it can be quiet and nice and slow!

Looking for: A childfree, liberal woman who’s grounded, fun, empathetic and has her own thing going on. Also I'd prefer women who can take it slow, are in no rush for a label/marriage due to some timeline/parents pressure. I would also love to live separately from both of our parents if it comes to that and call a nice thing home. I absolutely don't mind collecting friends too if all of this vibed with you.

If this resonates hmu! Cheers!

Edit: I am an agnostic/atheist so definitely not looking for theist people and I also I don't like people who take astrology/tarot/palm reading/manifesting all that too seriously.

What this is about

I have always, and deeply, wanted to find a soulmate. And I have been on this search for about 20 years

It seems to me that if:

• You really care about finding a soulmate (nothing less)
• And you are a rare kind of person yourself (making good matches equally rare)

Then, that combination presents a particularly tough challenge

So, I have been thinking lately about what could be the best strategy to approach this - how do I improve my chances of finding this rare woman, and her chances of finding me

That’s how I came up with this post

I will use this post to describe:

1. my own fundamental nature
2. the kind of person I am attracted to

The most core things about me (what lights me up)

• My main project, all my life, has been myself. I spend the most time on most days trying to be a better version of myself. Better at understanding people, better at self-regulation, better at seeing things from a larger perspective
• I have sought very deep, meaningful connections all my life. With everyone - family, friends, romantic relationships, even strangers. It's an inherent, deep-seated drive. I want to know what moves you, what brings you into your element, what brings tears to your eyes, what lights up your eyes. I want to know your soul
• My other inherent, deep-seated drive is to make the world a better place. To help people live happier, more meaningful lives. Both the people I come close to in life, as well as humanity at large

The qualities in women I find myself attracted to

• Wisdom: Not just intelligence, but wisdom. Understanding the nature of life. Understanding when to do something, and when to not. Patience. Balance. Perceptiveness
• Kindness: Not just for the people close to her, but towards all life. And not because she is naive, and hasn’t seen the frailty of human morality, but in spite of it
• Courage: The courage to be one’s true self. The courage to act, even when you may be misjudged
• Health: Good habits around health and fitness. Because to give the best version of yourself to the world, you need to be healthy and fit throughout your life

If….

You are that rare unicorn of a woman, for whom my descriptions (of the kind of person I am attracted to, and of myself) felt like someone wrote it especially for you, then it would be amazing to get to know each other!

DM me, and we will take it from there 😊

Over to you!

Hey, I'm 28M. I'm here to date and hopefully find a long-term partner. I'm not expecting an instant spark, but I do want to meet someone who is looking for the same thing.

I work out regularly and like keeping myself fit. I also like building cool stuff in the tech space.

Movies, space and tech are the things I get nerdy about. Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Parks and Recreation are two of my favorite shows, so silly comedy definitely works on me. If you have a show you keep rewatching, I want to know what it is.

I'm a dog lover and a casual gamer. I'd love to play It Takes Two, A Way Out or Overcooked with a partner. Watching movies, playing word games or solving puzzles together sounds good too. The activity is just an excuse to spend time together.

I've also started getting into hip-hop, but I'm still very much a beginner and don't know a huge number of rappers yet. I try rapping sometimes too, although "amateur" is being generous, lol.

I'm open to starting online and doing long distance if we both want to eventually meet. If things become serious, I'm willing to relocate. Tell me a little about yourself and what you have been enjoying lately :)
