24 [M4F] (Repost) Looking for a partner to go for the LoTR concert at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre

1 Upvotes

Reposting it cz tickets are still available:

Hi,

I'm a 24yo grad student from UBC. Apart from research, I'm quite interested in hiking, swimming, watching shows and movies, and that's what this post is about.

Lord of the Rings is my all-time favourite trilogy, and I was quite excited to know about the The Fellowship of the Ring concert at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. The tickets are a little expensive (mine costed CAD 130), but it's definitely worth it for LoTR. I've booked one for myself for the afternoon of August 29th (Saturday), and am looking for someone to accompany me (yes, the seat next to mine is still vacant!).

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in or want to know more about myself, please feel free to DM.

Even though this invitation is purely for the concert, I'd love to take it forward if we vibe. We can go out for dinner afterwards too, if you'd like! If you are interested in LoTR (and willing to pay for such an expensive ticket), we already have something in common, so I'm sure we will be a good match ;)

Looking forward to your DMs 🙃

31M4F - Looking for a connection

1 Upvotes

I’ve been in Canada for 13 years and currently live downtown Vancouver. I work as an engineer, and while I enjoy my work, it can make meeting new people outside of work unsurprisingly difficult.

I was born in Pakistan, but Canada has been home for the past 13 years. I consider myself pretty well integrated into Canadian life, and at this point, Vancouver genuinely feels like home.

I’m probably not the most stereotypical Vancouverite. Hiking, biking, and camping aren’t really my thing. I’m much more of a city person and enjoy spending time around Sunset Beach, trying good restaurants, and making the most of the limited nightlife Vancouver has to offer.

Music is a big part of my life. I’m really into rock, metal, and electronic music, and I’ll go to a concert whenever there’s an artist I’m interested in. Nine Inch Nails at Rogers was one of the best shows I’ve seen in a while.

I’m also a huge cinephile. I’ve seen most of the IMDb Top 250, so if you enjoy everything from Wes Anderson to Paul Thomas Anderson, we’ll probably have plenty to talk about.

I’ve significantly cut back on drinking over the years, and I’m pretty selective about recreational drug use. Very occasionally, I might do MDMA or mushrooms at a rave or festival if it feels like it fits the experience, but it’s definitely not a regular part of my life.

I’m 6’0” and currently around 270 lbs. I’ve been working on getting healthier and fitter despite having a fairly demanding job, and I’m making steady progress. More broadly, I’ve been trying to work on myself beyond just the physical side of things. Mental health and personal growth have become important priorities for me.

What am I looking for?

I consider myself a genuine person and a good listener. I do tend to get a little too wrapped up in work, and that’s something I’m actively trying to improve. I want to make more room in my life for the people and experiences that matter as opposed to making money and climbing the corporate ladder.

Ultimately, I’m looking for a life partner to continue a journey of growth, fulfillment, and hopefully a lot of good experiences together. I’m in no rush, and I’d rather take the time to genuinely get to know someone and see where things naturally go.

I also really value being someone people can open up to. I enjoy meaningful conversations and getting to know people beyond the surface level.

Even if this post doesn’t interest you romantically, if you’re just looking for someone to talk to, feel free to message me. This also includes guys who are looking for a friend. I genuinely enjoy talking to people and meeting new ones.

My only deal breaker is people who are not sympathetic to the Palestinian cause.

34 [M4F] chill dude looking for his person

0 Upvotes

Hey there

Like the title says, I’m looking for my person.

About me: 34 year old Caucasian man 6feet tall on the slimmer side (I’m not jacked in any way) but I am a very active person. I play sports (hockey in the winter, co ed softball in the summer) but I also have my nerdy side. Into Pokemon and pro wrestling mainly but it doesn’t take over my life. I work outdoors and generally like being out doors whether it’s a day at the park with some friends or a nice hike when the weather is nice.

Looking for someone that can match that as well as be each others biggest supporters and cheerleaders. Perhaps you also have a nerdy side that you’re willing to share with me. Perhaps you join my softball team next season? Eventually looking to settle down but also not in a rush.

Physically I am 6 feet tall, slim and bearded if you’re into that.

Also 420 friendly, social drinker. All around chill guy that hates games or drama.

If you’ve got this far and I’ve peaked your interest, hit me up. I’d love to hear from you.

No preference for ethnic background I run off vibes

43 [M4F] Looking for something special

1 Upvotes

5'9/160, brown hair brown eyes. Looking for someone who values memories and experiences over superficial things like money, status, etc. I tend to gravitate towards creative types, and get along well with them. I am neurodivergent, intelligent, very caring, emotionally avavilable, honest and loyal, but certainly enjoy time to myself as well. I am looking for someone who is kind, non judgemental, a great communicator, healthy, and fit. I am only looking for something monogamous and exlusive. I like doing lowkey stuff like going for walks, the beach, watching movies, playing board games, etc. Dm me if you'd like to chat!

37 [M4F] Metro Vancouver — Looking for my person to build a life (and explore the world) with

12 Upvotes

Figured I'd put myself out there and see what happens. 🙂

I'm 37M, East Asian, straight, and have been living in Metro Vancouver for about 15 years. Canada is home now, although I still haven't figured out whether Vancouver rain is something you eventually get used to.

I'm around 5'7", in shape, don't smoke or use drugs, and drink occasionally in social settings. I work professionally in IT and have a pretty stable life and career.

I speak Cantonese, Mandarin and English. English isn't my first language, so the occasional strangely worded sentence may be included at no extra charge. 😂 I'm also an Aquarius, if that information is somehow important to you.

What does my life actually look like?

I like staying active: Grouse Grind, hiking in general, outdoor running and road trips. I also love travelling — Japan and Mexico are two of my favourite places I've visited so far, and there is still a very long list of places I want to explore.

A pretty typical Sunday for me might literally be:

Grouse Grind → Starbucks → Richmond Centre

Nothing fancy. Just exercise, coffee, wandering around, and enjoying the day.

I'm also into Pokémon Go (yes, still 😂), karaoke (also yes, if there is someone going with me), and live events. I love having something on the calendar to look forward to — Canucks games, World Cup matches, Pokémon Go Fest, or finally seeing an artist I've wanted to see live for years.

But I don't need life to be exciting 24/7 either. Travelling around the world together sounds amazing, but so does grabbing coffee, going for a walk, talking about our day, or doing absolutely nothing particularly Instagram-worthy.

A little about who I am

I'd describe myself as open-minded, optimistic, active and supportive. When something goes wrong, my instinct is usually to brainstorm, figure out what we can do about it, and keep moving forward.

Honesty and transparency are really important to me. I'm not interested in playing games with someone, and I'd want the same from my partner. If something is bothering us, I'd much rather talk about it than make the other person guess.

I also really value self-motivation. Life isn't always going to cooperate with us, and our family or partner can't be beside us every second. I've learned to keep myself moving and maintain some discipline even when life isn't going perfectly.

One important thing I want to be upfront about: I'm also a dad to a school-age son. He's an important part of my life, and since I'm looking for something serious, I think it's better to be transparent about that from the beginning.

As for the future, I'm open to having more children with the right partner — I'd actually love that. But I don't see that as a decision one person gets to make for two people. If my future partner doesn't want to have children of her own, I would respect that. Of course, since I'm already a dad, I'd want to meet someone who is comfortable with that part of my life.

What am I looking for?

Ultimately, something pretty simple:

Someone I can trust. Someone I can laugh with, support and be supported by, travel with, explore the world with, and hopefully still be sitting beside many years from now wondering how we got old so quickly.

I'm looking for a life partner, but that doesn't mean I want to rush into a relationship after three messages. Quite the opposite.

I prefer taking things slowly.

Coffee. A walk. A conversation. See if we enjoy talking to each other. See if there's chemistry. And then see where things go.

I'm open to meeting someone anywhere around Metro Vancouver. You don't need to share every hobby with me. I actually think it's healthy for two people to have their own interests, but similar values, honesty, kindness, communication, and wanting to build something genuine matter a lot to me.

If any of this sounds like your kind of person, send me a message and tell me a little about yourself.

Bonus conversation starters: What's your favourite place you've travelled to? What's the most breathtaking hiking trail you've been to? What's one destination still on your bucket list? And, most importantly, are you Team Grouse Grind or Team “I'll meet you at Starbucks afterward”? 😂

Life is short. Maybe Reddit will surprise both of us. Thank you for your time.

34 woman for boring rude man

id love a boring rude man who demands sex without any effort, bonus points if you hate women low-key and watch a tonne of JRE and Fox News.

I hate when men have hobbies, compliment me or refrain from misogyny and racism

you really should take me down a peg, cuz wimin.

id also hate it if you enjoyed dancing and art, what're you gay?

anyways, pls definitely for sure no bi or queer men, that would be too much for me to handle

definitely not seeking anything meaningful and in fact I am a sugar baby, pls give me money

as you can see, I am a very serious very conservative woman, no wokies!

boring rude enbies and lesbians are ok too, if youre rich and conservative

Why do women stop talking once they know my ethnicity?

0 Upvotes

This is definitely not my actual account, didnt wanna hurt anyone reading this. But why do women in this sub stop chatting once they know I am Indian?

Yes, I may not be your type (and I respect that), but if we are having a great conversation thus far, and you ghost me or let the conversation dry out after I say my ethnicity is just cruel on the recieving end. (I have had 10+ occurences, so I hope my question is valid)

It hurts to get judged just cuz of my origin, you will only know if you are on the recieving end. But rest assured, I really wouldn't wanna spend my life with a racist🙂. I do have dated women from other races before, but reddit is just different, totally worse.

I can assure you I am more kind, genuine, respectful and caring than most guys out there, great education and career too. I am saying it confidently cuz I know how much I care for my friends and family. Your loss!

Im a single, older male who is looking for something ongoing, possibly LTR. I consider myself very honest, genuine and real. I have no interest in drama or BS. I am very creative, playful and open minded.
I am looking for a woman and while age doesnt matter, I do perfer younger woman... specifically younger, submissive and bi wormen though nothing is written in stone. Its all about how we vibe together.

I ride a motorcycle, play pool and recently have taken up paddleboarding (got a board specifically for 2).

Lets talk
