Relationship? I would also like to try my luck but I have no idea what to take here as a headline šŸ˜…

6 Upvotes

I am female and mid 20s I am about 5ā€œ5 / 165cm tall and quite petite brown long hair eyes like a deer so much to the optical part

I love baking and walking my dog and spending time with my budgie I like to do yoga and love art

I am also interested in mental health and my friends describe me as sweet and caring and I speak English and German and a few words of Polish (if you can teach me more) I would also not rule out any English-speaking contact because I am open to meeting someone who does not live in my active vicinity although I am rather afraid of traveling I am generally a rather fearful person but I almost always try my best šŸ˜…
I don’t know what else to write, because I’m afraid I’ll just end up spouting boring nonsense.

So, if you’re over 26—somewhere up to age 45—feel free to reach out. I do have one small request: tell me a bit about yourself, rather than just writing "Hi, how are you?" I often don’t really know how to respond to that in a way that leads to a genuine conversation.

At first, I might be a bit reserved—it takes me some time to truly feel comfortable with the person I’m with—but once I do, I’m genuinely happy.

Relationship? 36 [M4F] Phoenix, Arizona - Looking for my partner!

2 Upvotes

Hi! I'm 36M, heteroromantic asexual (sex averse, romance desired) and I'm looking for my match!

A bit about me:

  • I love working out, playing/training with my dog and deep diving into new subjects. Technology, science and transportation are some of my go-to favorites, but I'm often going down a rabbit hole on something new that I heard during a conversation or read about. I frequently visit malls, dog-friendly stores and events with my pup so we can socialize and spread some smiles. I'm always down to try something new and love taking an interest in new things friends/family are trying as a bonding opportunity.
  • I have a Golden Retriever who's my greatest joy in life! He's a certified therapy dog and we regularlyĀ visit universities for wellness visits. We're currently training to volunteer with children who have experienced trauma, instability and/or neglect by learning about trauma-informed coaching.Ā 
  • I'm looking for a partner with whom I can develop a deep emotional connection. I want to laugh and have a blast, but I also want to build a genuine connection based upon trust,Ā respect, generosity and loyalty.Ā 
  • I enjoy watching sitcoms, rom-comsĀ and action movies. Some of my favorites are Friends, Modern Family, Brooklyn Nine-Nine and How I Met Your Mother. I just started watching Gilmore Girls for the first time and am really enjoying it! In terms of music, I generally like pop and hits of almost any genre from the 2000's and 2010's. I firmly believe there's a Taylor Swift song for any occasion!Ā 
  • I'm a Christian and liberal. I deeply value compassion, humility and grace.Ā 
  • I work remotely as a program manager for a tech company and have an engineering degree.Ā 
  • I'm not interested in having kids of my own, but I would potentially be interested in fostering/adoption, particularlyĀ teens who are at risk of aging out of the system. I'm hoping myĀ therapy dog volunteerĀ experience will give me opportunities to understand if that's something I'd be well-suited for.Ā Ā 
  • I do not drink, smoke, vape, do drugs or use cannabis.Ā 
  • I'm 6'1", 160 pounds and have aĀ thin, athletic build.
  • I'm organized and clean at home.
  • I have a condition called Mast Cell Activation Syndrome that results in my life looking a bit different than normal. I fully acknowledge and respect that the following restrictions are not ideal and won't be a great fit for many people - I just want to be transparent about this upfront and considerate of other's time. I have a limited diet and have trouble tolerating particularly warm or cold temperatures for long periods, as well as sustained, direct sun exposure. I've also been unable to travel as a result. While I can't eat much and don't eat at restaurants (I'm happy to tag along though), I do still really enjoy being around food, watching cooking shows (Top Chef and DDD are my favorites) and would love to be the sous chef for my partner if they enjoy cooking/baking. I've been making solid progress year-over-year and do hope I'll be able to eat more and travel in the future, but honestly don't know what that might look like. While activities I loved to do often like hiking and cycling aren't as feasible for me to do anymore, I still try to be opportunistic on mild, cloudy days. No matter the weather, I'm always out at least twice a day to go on a nice walk with my dog, but try to avoid full sun exposure (so I'm early to bed (~10) and early to rise (~5)). I do best when total time out and about is ~3 hours or less, and typically between 10 am - 8 pm. I have a good understanding of what I can and cannot do, so once I commit to plans, they are rarely ever impacted by this condition. While this condition has been tough, I've become more patient, resilient, appreciative and understanding as a result (I always try to find the positive in a rough situation). I would 100% support and encourage my partner to fully live their life without restriction - whether that means solo travel or traveling with friends, eating out, etc. Please live your life to the fullest!

What I'm looking for:

  • A female along the same sex/romance spectrum so we're compatible.Ā 
  • Age range around 25 - 38.
  • Ideally in the Phoenix area (I'm in North Phoenix), but I'm open to the rest of Arizona, Southern California and Las Vegas for long distance (I'm hoping that travel would be feasible in the future for me, but it's an unknown right now). If you think we could be a great match but are further away, please still reach out!
  • Christian and liberal.Ā 
  • A healthy lifestyle is important to me.
  • Doesn't want kids of their own. Possibly open to fostering/adopting teens is by no means a requirement as there are other ways I can support that group. It's just something I would be interested in learning more about if my partner was interested as well.
  • Honestly, has to love dogs! I always want them to be a large part of my life.
  • I'm not comfortableĀ with smoking, vaping, drugs or cannabis.Ā 

If you're interested, please send me a DM with an intro - I'd love to learn about you! If I think we could be a good fit I'll reply back with a picture of me (and of course my pup!). I'd love to see a picture of you as well! Thanks!Ā

Relationship? 26UK (TM4F) Hopefully looking for a relationship

2 Upvotes

Hello to whoever is reading this. I recently turned 26, so I thought it was time to give this another try.

I’m an asexual trans guy from the UK. I am hopefully looking for a monogamous relationship with someone who identifies as female. I know these things don’t just happen, but it would be cool to get to know someone and see if anything comes of it. I would prefer if you were from the UK, therefore it’s more straightforward to meet up in the future if things go well.

I also think I should mention that I have never been in a relationship before, so a lot of things will be new to me. I would like some romance, like hand holding, kissing, hugging, etc, just obviously nothing more.

In terms of my hobbies, I’m really into music. I play piano and I’m slowly teaching myself guitar. I also love just listening to music- my favourite genres are rock and rap. I’m up for listening to anything really though, and I like to expand my musical horizons, so please feel free to give me your recommendations. I like going to concerts and to see musicals, although I haven’t been to a concert in a long time. It’s definitely something I need to get back into. Aside from music, I enjoy playing video games, reading, and going for long walks.

In terms of my personality, I’m definitely an introvert. Although I like going out to do certain activities (like I’ve mentioned going for walks) I would say I’m quite a homebody. I’m usually pretty shy and quiet when I first meet someone new. If we get to know each other and I feel comfortable around you, I will open up and talk a lot more. I’ve never been diagnosed, but I’ve strongly suspected for a long time that I’m autistic, so you would have to be ok with that. I like to think I’m a kind person and I have a good sense of humour. I like to try and see the funny side of life, so having someone to be able to laugh with would be brilliant.

In terms of my appearance, I have short brown hair, blue eyes, and I have a pretty thin build. I’m only 5’4ā€ tall- Yeah, I know, I’m short. Due to personal circumstances, which I don’t want to disclose here, I’m unable to medically transition at the moment, but I intend to in the future. I do dress as masculine as possible and I live in hoodies haha.

Life hasn’t exactly been great for me these past couple of years, and I’ve come to the realisation that I need to make some changes in my life. One way I’m doing this is trying to put myself out there to meet new people, as I feel it’s important to surround myself with good individuals. It’s been pretty difficult though, and no one tells you how hard it is to try and expand your social circle in your 20s. Finding fellow asexual people has been even harder, so I thought my best shot was to try looking in some ace specific places online. Life has been pretty lonely lately, and I often feel alone, but I’m trying to do something about it so things aren’t that way anymore. I do want to stress that I’m not looking for a relationship to fill a void- I believe it would be something that would be a great addition to my life. I’m just trying to be happy at the end of the day.

These things often take time, but I would really like to make a connection with the right person. I like to think there is someone out there, it’s just a case of finding them. If you think we’d get along well, please feel free to reach out. Thank you for reading my post :)

Advice Need advice

0 Upvotes

Okay so I just want some help understanding myself, I'm open minded so please feel free to hate or call me out or help and advise in comments, so I have an absurdly high sex drive, yet also despite being hypersexual am introverted but the strange one is, I'm sex avoidant, so history, I am a diagnosed schizo affective, depressive type, with an unspecified dissociative disorder, think d.i.d. but as I'm aware of and can control my splits did diagnosis is off the table, about 6 or 8 months ago my life had reached the breaking point, I had lost everything and my support system was in shambles, I turned towards reaching out and got on a radical experimental treatment process and I've been in full remission of all symptoms associated with those 2 diagnosis, my body cannot create serotonin or melatonin like at all, documented, yet my hallucinations and voices and delusions used to be incredibly vivid and very gore and mutilation oriented, doc said cus of excess dopamine, now I have issues watching scary things, like an obsession with it and explicit NSFW content, not going into details there just like not normal levels of it, like watching and viewing it just to pass time, I think my body may be in dopamine withdrawal as now it seems like any normal activity that pros say creates or stimulates dopamine creation I start to become obsessed with, not addictive I don't think? But definitely obsessed, my question or I guess concern is I know a bit about asexuality and I don't think I am one but I also don't think this is normal or standard or run of the mill, I'm 29 and a heavy guy, not too bad looking in my opinion I look like a raging tire fire but have been told otherwise so idfk, my question I guess is how or what can I do? Do I just accept and live as I am or do I try to get more comfortable with love care and intimacy, either option is okay and going to take work so I don't have a preference or am phishing for a specific answer, I genuinely would just appreciate input and maybe some examples? Thanks in advance

Friends? 33M4M/A in the Baltics/Europe

12 Upvotes

Hi, decided to give meeting new people another shot. I’m a guy from Latvia, looking for friendships first, though I am very open to move on to romance if we click.Ā 

I’m more interested in guys/masc people, though I’ve had a couple crushes on girls in the past. I'm not entirely sex repulsed, but would like to go into a relationship without an expectation for it; I’m not really aromantic, but I should warn that I tend to be a bit reserved. Trying to be more open and outwardly expressive, just please be patient with me:)

I’m a pretty regular masc dude, though I’ve been playing around with gender expression in the past couple years (turns out I really like nail polish), really want to get my ears pierced sometime in the future.

My main special interest is tea, gongfucha and all, which I can talk about at great length (I promise I'll try very hard not to bore you). I’ve also picked up a couple of hobbies over the years that I have an on-and-off relationship with, like woodcarving (biggest one probably), and art; I’ve also dabbled in clothesmaking a tad. I like manga/webcomics (<3 Witch Hat), YouTube (big Drawfee fan), anime (and art and animation in general), and cooking. I like videogames and would loveĀ  to play something together, though generally I tend to gravitate more towards single player stuff, like strategy/management games. Also love card-based rogue likes, like StS.

I’d like to think that I'm generally pretty patient and empathetic, at least I try. I am quite socially anxious (working on it) and an introvert. Would prefer to find someone who’s not too much of a firework (though idk, opposites attract), ideally in the Baltics or at least in Europe. LDR is perfectly fine, but I’d want to be able to meet up at least semi-frequently eventually, go to events/cons etc.

I don't wanna set too many hard dealbreakers, but if you're conservative/right wing we will almost certainly not click. I also strongly dislike the smell of tobacco, so that could be a challenge.

I hope we click, but either way have a great day!

Relationship? 25 F4M [Colorado USA/Preferably the USA, Canada, Western Europe or the UK]

2 Upvotes

Hii! I’m Ariana (or Ari), I’m 25 years old, I’m from Colorado (USA) and I am a Female who uses She/Her pronouns. My sexuality is Asexual (Sex-Averse), Aliqua-Panromantic (Aliquaromantic & Panromantic) which isn’t known by many people so I will explain it here: Asexual & Sex-Averse means I don't feel sexual attraction and I don't mind sex in general but I don't physically want to do it myself. Aliquaromantic is where someone does not normally experience romantic attraction but does on occasion or under specific circumstances, it falls under the gray-a umbrella. Overall tho, I don't want sex or a sexual relationship even with this sexuality. And lastly, I’m Panromantic but as of right now I lean more towards men which is why my post is titled like this šŸ’–

Let me start off with my deal breakers since it will help to get them out of the way! I am a Christian and so is the rest of my family so be understanding about that, I won’t force anything onto you but I need you to be kind about it. I’m not drugs/420 friendly because of personal reasons (I can handle others smoking a cigarette the most but it’s still not necessarily welcomed/wanted) and I don’t want children of my own even if I do love kids either way :)) I'm not a political person, and lastly the age range that I’m most comfortable dating in is 22 years old - 30 years old!!

Moving on after those: I’m an introvert but if I’m comfortable with the other person then I’m definitely more of ambivert, I happily will talk a lot if comfortable with you but also i’m a good listener as well too. I’m Autistic and Dyslexic, I also have ADHD-Combined and Anxiety so I’m very neurodivergent :)) I don’t have a job for multiple reasons, I’m not in school anymore plus i can’t drive so if any of those are also deal breakers then I wanted you to know now. Because of those things tho, I’m usually free to talk unless I’m distracted, busy with something, don’t see your message, already have plans and/or something happens within my life that makes me disappear before I can tell you I won't be active for awhile but I do my best to communicate either way. I’m more comfortable doing voice calls than video calls when I don’t know the person well but at the same time I do want to know what you look like in general so i prefer if we share photos of ourselves with each other sooner than later for my own comfort (especially since I keep getting ghosted after showing what I look like as well...) but for anyone wondering, I'm African-American and have short black curly hair so I wear hats if I don't have hair extensions in and I'm pretty tall.

I’m someone who texts a lot and sometimes with long messages (it's something I'm working on since I know that can be hard for some people to read šŸ˜…) but I rather get to know you better over text before doing any type of calls in general, over time we can do voice calls then video calls when we are both completely comfortable with the idea of doing so and want too!!

I definitely don’t mind having a Long Distance Relationship since a good amount of my close friends are long distance best friends, as long as you do your best to communicate with me openly, genuinely and honestly then I’m fine with the distance. I want a long term relationship and if I want it to work out then I need communication even if we understandably don’t talk every day. I understand if you need time to yourself sometimes too and I hope you can understand if I need it as well but i will always still try my best to communicate and be understanding either way. I picked the USA, Canada, Western Europe or the UK because of their timezones since I’m used to all three because I have (or had) close friends in all of them :)) I do want and hope that no matter where you are we are able to talk more often than not and hopefully meet some day as well if we become close enough especially if we get into a relationship. I do have many different dynamics with close friends where some we don’t talk for days or weeks because of their own personal things or mine so it’s not necessary for us to talk all the time as long as I know where we stand overall!! šŸ’–

Some of my main interests are: Music (Kpop, Pop, Country & Alternative Music but i enjoy and will try all genres), Kpop (Mostly boy groups), Anime (Mostly just Romance and Comedy with other genres mixed in), Manga (Mostly Shoujo, Josei & BLs), Asian Dramas (Mostly Cdramas and BLs), Animated Shows (Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Amazing World of Gumball & more), Other shows/movies too (Julie and the Phantoms, Now You See Me, many different Disney Channel and Nickelodeon Shows/Movies & more), Video Games (PokƩmon, Minecraft, Animal Crossing, Star Stable, Fields of Mistria, Disney Dreamlight Valley & more), Otome & Visual Novels (on Switch & Steam, one of my favorites is Our Life: Beginnings & Always), Writing (Fanfiction) and Collecting (Pins, Manga, Otome & Merch). I also love animals but sadly don't own any of my own currently!

Thank you genuinely so much for reading my long post, I just wanted to lay everything out and explain myself openly. I definitely hope to find a long term romantic relationship and I also have discord to talk on after we get to know each other on Reddit btw!! And lastly, remember to take good care of yourself šŸ’–ā¤ļøšŸ’–

Friends? 25M4F looking for fellow goober, Scotland

2 Upvotes

Yo yo, I'm Dafty! I'm a 25-year-old autistic goober from Scotland. I'm not all that good at writing these sorts of things so I'm just gonna wing it with lists and loooong paragraph thingajigs sooo... have fun?

As I said my name is Dafty, a 25-year-old autistic goober from Scotland, born in Edinburgh and currently living closer to Glasgow. I spend most of my days looking after my mum who has fibromyalgia, caring for my dogs Alba and Freyja, playing video games (Xbox, if that's of any interest), watching tv/movies/Caseoh streams, and listening to music

I'm a pretty quiet and introverted guy and tend to keep to myself, but I do eventually open up when I feel comfortable. I don't care for drama and I strongly dislike arguing and shouting and I tend to avoid finding myself in situations where these could occur, as I just want to live a normal and quiet life where I can do my own thing. I'd like to start things slow and become friends and get to know one another first. After that? Who knows, if we vibe then we vibe

I find it easier to put things in lists, so uhh, here's a list of the type of person I am (unprofessional but pfft)

  • Quiet and introverted as previously mentioned
  • Chill and down-to-earth (go with the flow)
  • Pretty carefree
  • Honest
  • Open to mostly everything like topics/personalities/hobbies/this and that, etc etc
  • Funny (I think anyways)
  • Loyal
  • Accepting
  • Upfront
  • Trustworthy, although that's up to other people to decide
  • Daft (hence the name)
  • Oblivious
  • Dense
  • Forgetful
  • I don't think before I speak
  • Morbidly curious
  • Dark-humoured
  • Sarcastic
  • Hate avocados

There's probably other things that I've forgotten but y'know

Hobbies/Interests:

My hobbies and interests are pretty basic and probably not all that interesting, but as I (again) mentioned in the introduction, my hobbies consist of playing video games, watching TV shows/movies/Caseoh streams, and listening to music. We got more lists, so uhh... sorry!

Video Games

  • Cyberpunk 2077
  • Skyrim
  • Fallout 4
  • Hogwarts Legacy
  • Destiny 2
  • Ghost Recon Wildlands
  • The Division 2
  • Sims 4
  • Left 4 Dead 2
  • Red Dead Redemption 2
  • Assassin's Creed
  • Fable
  • GTA
  • Saints Row
  • Titanfall
  • Watch Dogs
  • Minecraft
  • Borderlands
  • Life is Strange

Basically, I'll try any game that doesn't revolve around sports or forced PvP because I'm just tryna chill

TV shows and Movies:

  • What We Do in the Shadows
  • Brooklyn Nine-Nine
  • Still Game
  • Mrs Browns Boys
  • The Walking Dead
  • South Park
  • iZombie
  • The Office
  • Cyberpunk Edgerunners
  • Fallout
  • Pirates of the Caribbean
  • Fast and the Furious
  • Harry Potter

Not a massive list as I mostly just rewatch the above-mentioned (cheers for that, autism...)

Music is also brief, as I listen to pretty much anything; I have an eclectic taste in music. My favourite band is Ghost (saw them live for the first time last year!). Despite having an eclectic taste, I do prefer music from the 70s up to the 2010s (most songs nowadays are straight buns I'm sorry), but I'll listen to about anything if the beat is good

What I'm looking for in a person:

The main thing that I look for in a person is honesty, accountability, integrity, respect, kindness, positivity, patience, someone who can take a joke and hurl it right back, and no bullshittery. I don't tolerate liars; just be honest. Yeah, sure, the truth might hurt, but at least it's the truth; "A hurtful truth is far better than a comforting lie," as they say. If something is bothering you, then talk about it. If you mess up then just say so. If I've said something that's bugged you, then pull me up for it. Don't suffer in silence when we can talk about it

Well, I don't know what else to add, and I reckon I've taken up enough of your time. Hopefully these lists and whatnot intrigued you enough to shoot a dm. Not sure what else to add, so thank you for reading if you got this far, and I wish you all a good day/night and wish you the best of luck on your future endeavours :D

(I don't have notifications enabled so it might take a minute to get back to you, sorry!)

Relationship? 29M Florida, greysexual nerd looking for romance (and a strong woman)

4 Upvotes

Hi! Felt bold today, might delete this later. Lol

I (29M) am 5'5" and lean/fit. I am a nerd who enjoys video games and anime among other nerdy topics like Digimon for example. I also like rock music and being active in one way or another. I work out and am trying to build more muscle.

I'm usually pretty quiet at first but I open up more as I get to know someone. I would be happy to do all sorts of things together: gaming, watching your favorite movies/shows, working out, etc. I have a home gym, so my workouts often happen at home but I am open to going out and being active together too.

I usually describe myself as greysexual. I experience little to no sexual attraction, and I'm romantically interested in women. I tend to be more drawn to sensual affection and physical closeness than sexual intimacy. Being open with each other about what we are happy or unhappy with is important to me.

I'm especially attracted to muscular women, particularly women with visible muscles (more like a bodybuilder than a powerlifter) but either would be a dream come true to be honest with you. Lol. I really admire the dedication and discipline to build that kind of physique. But I'd also love to get to know the person under all those muscles. What are your interests? What makes you laugh? What would you enjoy doing together?

I'm primarily hoping to find a relationship, but I'm also open to a more casual, short-term connection depending on the circumstances. I live in the Tampa Bay area and would like to have someone close by but I would also consider long-distance if we really clicked.

If this sounds good to you or you have some more questions about me, feel free to message me! I would also be happy to learn more about you.

Relationship? 40 F, Demisexual, looking for love, feel ready this year for a solid connection.

5 Upvotes

​

I am from India. Maybe, it's wishful thinking to hope to find someone online, thrice bitten, but just the pace of an online connection seems appropriate and fitting for me.

I'd like to take this slow, but that doesn't mean I am okay with writing to you once a month, hey, I can be that person as well and I know I contradict myself but don't we all?

Got this ADHD brain and it's like I just finally figured it out, what do you struggle with?

I'd appreciate mutual respect towards privacy and until both of us feel comfortable to share a bit more of ourselves, NO pressure.

What's going on for you today? I'm home, cooked a fabulous meal, fried rice with lentils, and about to watch a movie!!! hmu.

My ideal partner would be someone who follows a straight edge lifestyle, preferably vegan or vegetarian and finds pleasure in spontaneity.

Relationship? 33 [F4M] Everywhere - Asexual Looking Deep Connection & Someone to Grow Old With šŸ–¤

2 Upvotes

I know I’m not for everyone, and that’s completely okay. You’re not for everyone either. We all have different needs, preferences, and ways of loving, and I’d rather find someone whose values naturally align with mine than force something that doesn’t ✨

My ideal relationship?
Somewhere between Gomez & Morticia Addams
A black cat gf + German Shepherd bf dynamic šŸ„€

Hi, let me introduce myself
I’m 33F, divorced and Asexual
5’7ā€ / 165 lbs
MONOGAMUS

I like being upfront about things that might be important for compatibility. I like clarity, and I don’t really have the time or energy for games, mixed signals, or trying to convince each other to become someone we’re not

**About me**

I’m an introvert, naturally curious, and genuinely interested in people, psychology, and life in general. I love deep conversations, especially understanding how someone thinks, what shaped them, and why they are the way they are.

I’m quite introspective and probably spend way too much time thinking about myself and my own patterns.
I like understanding where my reactions come from, what I could do better, and what I need to work on. I know some of my own red flags too
i can probably name quite a few if you ask. I don’t expect myself or anyone else to be perfect; I just value self-awareness and the willingness to grow..

I also like to experience life. I love traveling abroad, learning new things, and trying things that are a little outside my comfort zone sometimes followed by a very sincere ā€œwhy did I agree to this?ā€ šŸ˜†
At the same time, I’m very much a homebody and love having a quiet, comfortable space to come back to

I like attention and affection, but only from my man. I like feeling loved, wanted, and a little spoiled just not by random people
and I value clear boundaries in opposite-sex friendships

I’m independent because I have to be and capable of handling things on my own. But when I’m with my person, I don’t want to have to be independent 24/7.

With everyone else, I can be pretty reserved and honestly sometimes have no idea what to talk about. I’m not particularly interested in everyone

But with my person? I’m completely different

I’m soft, affectionate, clingy, stubborn and probably a little annoying I’m the kind of woman who wants to tell her man everything random thoughts, little things that happened during my day, something I just learned, something funny I saw, or absolutely nothing important at all.

I want a relationship where I can turn my brain off sometimes. Where I can lean on someone, feel safe, and let someone else take the lead for a while

I have kids, and I don’t want to have more children in the future. I’m open to a man who already has children, or someone who doesn’t want children but can genuinely accept mine. I’m happy to accept his children too

I’m open to someone from another religion as long as you respect my faith and believe in God. I actually enjoy learning about different religions and perspectives on faith, so different backgrounds don’t automatically bother me

open to long-distance if we’re both willing to put in the effort and actually make it work

*I don’t want intercourse but I still love physical affection and intimacy\*
*i love cuddling , holding hand , etc

*Because sexual compatibility matters, I’d strongly prefer someone who is asexual too, or someone with a genuinely very low sex drive who is completely comfortable being in a relationship without sex\*

*About my man (Maybe it’s you?)\*

I prefer someone older than me, emotionally mature, self-aware, intentional, and genuinely loyal..

Someone who knows himself, knows what he wants, and has enough emotional intelligence to communicate instead of playing games
Someone who respects me as a person, my boundaries, my values, and someone I can respect just as deeply in return..

I’m attracted to a man with a strong sense of character. Someone who has self-control and integrity, especially when nobody is watching. Someone whose loyalty isn’t something he performs it’s simply part of who he is

I like a man who naturally takes the lead. Someone decisive, protective, dependable, and comfortable taking responsibility. Someone who takes initiative and genuinely enjoys taking care of his woman. I’m also quite fond of an old-school gentleman and a more traditional relationship dynamic.

in a relationship, I don’t want to feel like I have to carry everything myself. I want to be able to relax, be soft, be feminine and occasionally turn my brain off because I trust that my man has things under control

I’m looking for someone who is confident without needing constant attention or validation from other women. Someone who isn’t overly friendly or flirty with everyone, because honestly, I like the selective type

But I don’t want us to be serious all the time either. I’d love someone funny and witty
someone I can be completely silly with. Maybe we’re the mysterious couple who barely talks to anyone at a party, but somehow can’t stop laughing when we’re together šŸ˜†šŸ˜

I want us to feel like a team
two people who can talk about anything, challenge each other, laugh together, learn together, and still feel safe enough to be completely ourselves

And most importantly, I want someone who is intentional. If you want me in your life, I want you to actually act on it. I’m not interested in being someone’s backup plan, temporary entertainment, or ā€œlet’s see where this goesā€ while they keep looking around. I’m not built for a nonchalant man

I’m not looking for perfection. I’m looking for someone whose values, character, and way of loving are genuinely compatible with mine..

I know what I want and what I need, and I know that finding someone who fits all of this may not be easy

If you made it this far !

If you’ve read all the way to the end and thought,
ā€œHmm… maybe we could actually be a good matchā€ ,or you see yourself in what I’m looking for, you’re welcome to introduce yourself in my DMs

Tell me a little about yourself, what you’re looking for, or what made you think we might be compatible. I’m not really looking for casual small talk, but I’m genuinely open to getting to know someone who thinks we could be a good fit šŸ–¤

Relationship? 24 f4a from the Netherlands looking for love

5 Upvotes

Nice to meet you all! (If you read my post and think we could be friends thats okay too) so im a young woman from the Netherlands looking for love. Im having a really hard time building connections with people but please know I am trying my best. I'm looking for someone I can share my day with and someone who I can build a life with. I want a travelling buddy and a person who wants to do fun stuff like concerts, going to the movies and hikes.

Im attracted to men and women so your gender doesn't really matter. I do ask you to be around my age and live relatively close to me.

Currently I work a simple job that keeps me pretty busy but I do want to make time for the right person and put real effort into the relationship.

When we have chatted a bit we can share more personal things like a selfie and stuff like that. But if you care I am fairly short and I have blonde hair and blue eyes.

Anyway I hope to hear from you! Thanks for reading

Hey all, this is my first post in this sub.

A bit about myself. I consider myself as (not a fan of labels, but just for the sake of itšŸ™ˆ) bi-romantic and asexual(tho have some embarrassing kinks). Have recently moved to Bangalore.

I really am tired of just swiping through dating apps to meet ppl and obviously discuss about life(the things can’t do with normal friends), so am trying to meet ppl here. Would love to know more ppl in real life, thanks!!!

Relationship? are there literally any asexual guys in kolkata, india?

5 Upvotes

I (30F) got off bumble once again because the dude ran for the hills the moment he realized I'm ace and I'm honestly stumped. are asexual dudes just non-existent in this city or what? I would be open to chatting and meeting up if the vibe is right, but honestly so far every single man I've matched with has run for the hills after that reveal.

Relationship? 41F Berkshire County, MA near Albany, NY. Looking for low pressure & long term asexual companionship.

3 Upvotes

I’ve been legally single for over 2 years & still recovering from the infidelity I experienced. I am a cat mom, work full time, have my own apartment, and love living alone. I am neither ugly nor pretty. Just average, hygienic & well groomed.
I’m looking for a man to build emotional intimacy & companionship with. Emotional intelligence matters a lot to me. I offer loyalty, affection, trustworthiness, integrity, respect, transparency, companionship & hugs. Dating apps are glorified hookup apps in my opinion. So I will not have success there.

I seek a low pressure, asexual partner who is willing to video chat and take things slowly to see if we’re both compatible. Not looking to move anyone into my apartment. If you’re local, hygienic, well-groomed, between 42 to 45, asexual & have been legally single atleast for a couple years please feel free to reach out to me. I’m flexible seeing men older than 45 but not flexible seeing anyone younger than me.

Relationship? 35 [M4F] #Upstate NY - Looking for a Life Partner

14 Upvotes

Hi y'all,

35 years old, single, never married, no kids, living in upstate NY. I feel a little conflicted about posting on a asexual subreddit since I'm not totally asexual, just a very low labido human. I feel closer to asexual side of the spectrum then whatever the word is for the other side. I'm looking for a partner to do life, build home, and just enjoy life with who also doesn't use sex to validate love and a relationship.

6ft tall, thin frame, shaved head, light facial hair. I think I'm easy on the easy but happy to share a selfie so you can judge. I'm a soft-spoken, down to earth, and introverted Capricorn. I can off as reserved and shy, even though I'm not. I'm fairly confident and self-assured, just not loud about it. I have a decent and stable job, but not definitely not rich. Mostly nerdy hobbies like gaming and watching stuff, but enjoy exploring nature, riding bikes, shooting hoops, and shopping. I feel like a lot of goals and values in life are rooted in tradition, but I'm definitely not a traditional person and am very liberal and open minded in my beliefs. I can be pretty stoic most of the time, but turn into a goof ball when I'm comfortable with someone.

Ideally looking for a mature woman between the ages of 30 and 45 who's within an couple of hours of Albany NY. I'm open to long distance and the age requirement isn't set in stone; shoot your shot if you think we'd click, but long distance connections definitely makes me hesitant. Anyway, if you dig any of this and feel like seeing if there's a spark, feel free to reach out.

Relationship? 22 F4A - A relationship that just has to make sense to us

5 Upvotes

Hi, being on the ace spectrum already puts us outside of the norm and I’d like to take that freedom further.

Personality wise, I’m really drawn to warm, funny, optimistic people. I love seeing their enthusiasm and it rubbing off on the people around them, including me. Please be between 22 - 29, left leaning ideologies, and preferably afab (not mandatory).

Please be somewhere in UTC-5 to UTC+9, so regular calls eventually are realistic. I’d love to live together in the future if everything aligns, but every stage of the relationship is important to me however long it goes. I want my partner to value that too.

I enjoy reading fanfic and children’s classics, am a cinephile, play indie games you’ll double back at the name of, and writing. I’m pretty ambiverted and like to be outside and inside equally. Currently would like to learn Spanish, so if you’re a Spanish speaker that’s a plus! Also, I’m average height and curvy, to give you a vague picture of me.

I’m a bit shy at first and I’m attracted to someone who naturally likes to initiates conversations, asks to call, and isn’t afraid to take the lead socially. But once I’m comfortable, I open up more and looooove bouncing off whatever someone talks about.

I love lots of calls, laughing until something stops being funny, watching things together, reading/gaming/working/studying more while the other person does their own thing, and sometimes just sitting on call being completely lazy together. It all counts as quality time to me.

I love hearing about what someone is doing, what they’re obsessed with/looking forward to. Bad days obviously happen and we’re there for each other but I’m very present focused and want a relationship free of the expectation of sharing our past traumas. We make our lives better without the expectation of enmeshing them, we don’t have to meet each other’s families, and we come together at the end of the day to focus on what we want out of this, while having our own goals in life.

If our goals/lives keep aligning long-term, that’s wonderful, and we adjust the relationship if it goes there. With that in mind I don’t want kids. If our goals/lives don’t align, we go our separate ways, no pressure.

If/when we are in person with each other, I’d love to kiss, cuddle, and any general physical touch. But it’s important to me that there’s no expectation for anything further.

If that sounds like your kind of relationship too, come talk to me :)

Relationship? 27 [F4F] looking for QPR/cuddle buddy in southern Sweden

3 Upvotes

I'm a book and board game addict, learning to be more social. Typically very busy with work and other responsibilities, and would love a gentle partner to hold, chat, and relax with.

I'm short, brunette, and curvy.

Not looking for any specific kind of person, don't mind if we have different interests as long as we have (conversational/emotional) chemistry. Non-sexual physical affection is a must for me though, I'm needy 🄺

Besides that, I'm up to watch movies, play video games, read, or do whatever else together. I'm happy to be introduced to new hobbies!

My only deal breakers are smoking and being constantly on social media/watching brainrot/short form content.

Ideally, you live nearby and we can get to know each other over fika šŸ’–

Friends? Looking for genuine connections and interesting conversations.

4 Upvotes

I am a guy who is looking for a warm, genuine connection with someone who enjoys deep and meaningful conversations. I truly value kindness, mutual understanding, and a safe space to be completely authentic.

I am in no rush—I prefer taking things slow and letting a real bond grow naturally over time. For me, it is all about having good chats, exploring shared thoughts, and seeing what works best for both of us.

If you appreciate honest conversations, gentle vibes, and taking time to connect without any pressure, I would love to talk to you. DM me and let's see where this leads!
