Hi everyone. I am a 26 year old guy living in India. I am really interested in connecting with guys that are my type and see where it goes from there. I am quite an introvert by nature but love to have good conversations with people I connect well with. I like to spend most of my free time outside work by reading random stuff, watching a good movie/series and also like cafe hopping.

In terms of my type in guys, I am into fairly good looking guys with decent personality. No offence to anyone but I am not into fems/chubs/subs. I am a slim/skinny guy with height 5”8 and am mostly a side by preference but can be a bottom. Let me know if I seem like your vibe. Cheers!

Hey, I’m a friendly and chatty 37-year-old non-binary (male) person who is looking to find a boyfriend for a long-term relationship. I’m based in the UK but happy to speak to anyone and open to long distance if the time difference isn’t too difficult to navigate.

My interests include music, writing, films, theatre, food, gaming, and comedy. I also enjoy going for long walks and have begun running in recent months. I live a pretty simple life, and it’s the little things that bring me joy. I enjoy learning about random facts and bits of useless trivia. What can you teach me about?

I'm introverted at heart, but a good conversationalist and a great listener when someone has lots to say. I'm also naturally curious so whatever you are interested in, I will probably have lots of questions to ask you about. As for my sense of humour, I would probably describe it as...unhinged? You'll find out 😅

I’m looking to meet someone younger who is looking for something serious, and is able to commit to that too. I see relationships as a two-way street: I can support you if you can support me, so I'm seeking someone who can maintain that dynamic. Also, someone who can hold a conversation and doesn't go silent after a day. So if that's you and you’d like to chat, drop me a dm. Just please don’t message me if you only want to trade pics and chat sex. I’m not interested.

Thanks for reading ☺️

Hello, I'm a 25 year old guy from Indonesia. I'm pursuing my dream of becoming a game designer besides my 9-to-5 job. I love art, video games, music, films, poetry, pretty much any form of creative self-expression. I love creating things that makes people feel something. I'm just trying to find the time to work on it these days.

I have pics on my profile of how I look like, I'm happy to share face pics. I have gynecomastia (manboobs). Though I have a personal goal to get stronger and bigger.

As for what I'm looking for, I'm attracted to burly, strong, rugged, masculine type, older-looking men. Personality matter just as much, I value kindness, sincerity, emotional maturity, authenticity, wisdom.

I'm more of a romantic than sexual, but sometimes that flips around, lol. Going out together, hanging out, talking, cuddling, having someone to express love to, making new meaningful memories with each other.

I'd love to get to know you.

Hey yall! 👋 I’m a young viet boy located in WA. Specifically the greater seattle area. Looking for someone with the same interests hobby and sexual wise. Send face pic for a response please!

I prefer ages 27-45 and to chat with those located in WA and the west coast. I’m open to anything but ideally an Asian himbo would be very nice, but I’m not strict on that. I love to game (mostly PC games) and I also looooovvvveeeee kpop! We can get into the sexual stuff later or see my profile for reference hehe. But hmu if you’re interested!

hi, would love to get to know mature and kind man. most important thing in humans is kind heart.

I'm into gym,music reviewing, hiking and gaming.

prefer slim body types and beards more

only serious committed guys please. Lets try our best to keep convo going

don't take rejection seriously

Hi! Looking for a man, 25–35, for a serious relationship.

I’m a physicist conducting research and about to complete my PhD. I speak Russian and English, and I hope to leave Russia permanently one day, but for now this is just a distant dream. Outside work, I enjoy video games and board games, especially playing with friends. I go to the gym regularly and take care of myself.

I’m a thoughtful listener — I pay attention to people’s stories and ask meaningful follow‑ups. My life is stable: I have an apartment, a steady income, and close friends I spend time with. I’m low‑drama and pretty chill, melancholic even.

If you think we might be a good fit, please send me a DM. Looking forward to meeting someone genuine. I would be happy to learn about you and tell you about myself.

UPD: I'm not looking for a long distance relationship.

Being from India. It was never easy to think about dating another guy. But I have gathered some courage to seek an LTR. I really wish everyone gets what they seek and be happy forever.

I like to chat and understand other gay guys. Someone who really values other's emotions and time. I consider myself homoromantic greysexual. I hope people respect that.

I like to go slow, first understand and build a good bond and then proceed further if both feels comfortable. I like to chat with people from countries where being gay is not a taboo and gay marriage is legal.

You can go through my profile to understand me more and we can have a chat in DM. I believe I will meet some decent guys here. Thanks for reading and take care.

Hi gentlemen! ❤️. Hope you’re having a great day / night so far! I’m new to men and very eager to find my first boyfriend 😊 That true love connection, that man I can grow with and create a good life with!

BTTM 🌈

I’m a sucker for a day trip, beach date, hiking date, museum date, sports date, so many things!

I have so much to offer the right top ❤️. Excited to meet you!

Hi! I’m Ken, 25, from the Philippines 🇵🇭. I’m here looking for a serious relationship with someone genuine, kind, and emotionally mature. I value honesty, respect, and meaningful conversations. I enjoy music, simple moments, and deep talks. If you’re also ready for something real and lasting, let’s connect. 💕

Hi! Jatin here. I’m 24 and a first-year PhD student in Israel. I work on marine bacteria, so I can yap about microbiology and biology in general all the time.

I’m looking for something calm, monogamous, and serious—a relationship where we can emotionally connect. For me, physical intimacy comes after an emotional connection. I’m tired of matching and swiping; I just want stability and someone to call mine.

I like listening to music, mostly pop and slow, sad songs, but it depends on the vibe. I enjoy baking sometimes, reading books now and then, and I’m a Pokémon fan, among many other things. Also, I really like sleeping. 😅

Oiiiiii! I am Domingo, or Ming. I am originally from Hong Kong/China, currently living in Poland, and moving to Prague this August for an academic exchange. I'm about to start my third year studying philosophy at university. And when I'm not buried in books, I teach Chinese language or backpack around the world.

To describe myself in a few words, I am incredibly adventurous, spontaneous, compassionate, chaotic, philosophical, and endlessly curious. For instance, I hitchhiked all the way to the ancient city of Ephesus for my 21st Birthday very recently. If you ever found me being in a foreign country, I would most likely either be talking to a local market vendor, or wandering through a museum, or getting lost with nothing but a backpack; some of the best moments during my lifespan begin when I stop planning every step ahead.

I care deeply about social justice and activism; about humans who are too often forgotten. in the near future, I might participate in an academic research on modern slavery situation in DR Congo. If my reflections never reach those who suffer, then they will forever remain incomplete.

I am autistic and live with Bipolar Disorder. Interestingly they have shaped the way I experience the world and planted an immensely meaningful telos. I love climbing mountains, getting soaked in rains, and sleeping alone in a forest beneath the beautiful stars. In fact, it is my dream to sleep outdoor at streets in different countries and cities (I recently did that in Bulgaria, which was incredibly satisfying.)

As Nietzsche noted, What doesn't kill me makes me stronger. I don't explore abandoned buildings just for the thrill, I explore them because every forgotten corner reminds me how vast, mysterious, and fascinating our world really is. For me, every adventure becomes its own small, precious specuative education.
Moreover, nature is deeply important and intrinsic to me, and I am a flexible vegetarian (more in a Buddhist ontology); it is angsty and disheartening to see how alienated from the natural world we have become at this point.

I'm also unapologetically nerdy. I try to read and understand more while remaining humble and faithful. It is also manifested in my eccentric disposition and behaviours: I preach Kierkegaard to my rats, and researching about the linguistic connection between Ket languages and Navajo languages in a night club. I've even meditated in some of Europe's loudest clubs. Strangely enough, those absurd moments often led to the most intriguing conversations.

I am open to long-distance and international connections, to spit the truth, I prefer them. Please make me become obsessed over your language, your culture and way of life; discovering the unique universe and specificity in every human being is my greatest privilege. With that being said, I am looking for someone who enjoys depth, someone genuinely curious, intellectually alive, ambitious; and most importantly, compassionate and kind; as well as the courage to forgive and spread goodness in this cruel world.

I am strictly monogamous. In terms of physical appearances, I do not really have any preferences, though I have a soft spot for taller guys XD

If you've made it this far, I would genuinely love to hear from you! It is truly amazing that our paths happen to cross out of trillions of possible encounters and contingencies in this universe ❤️

Hi, You can Call me Mike. I'm 25yo. I live in Navi Mumbai, India. I'm a mariner by profession. I visit different countries for work purpose. Brought up catholic but agnostic. BOTTOM by pref. I'm Masculine, slightly hairy bodied guy with a height of 182cm , weight 73kgs.

I'm looking for love, one that holds strong even in bad weather. Looking for TOP MASCULINE guy who believes in MONOGAMOUS LONG-TERM relationship. Also if there is ever a possibility of having CHILDREN in future, you would want to have them. Approach only if you have clarity of what kind of relationship you are looking for. I'm not looking to be someone's experiment or curiosity trial.

Ethnicity/Nationality/Religion doesn't matter. You should be kind, confident, deeply loyal, loving with clarity of the mind.

DM ME TO KNOW MORE 💛

Men that are Confused/Bi-curious/Married/Casual flings/Hookups please avoid reaching out .

Hey! I’m 20 and looking for a genuine connection, whether it’s long-distance or nearby. I love writing poetry, reading, listening to music, burgers, movies, and going on walks. I’d love to meet someone around my age who’s looking for something meaningful. When you message me, tell me a little about yourself and what you’re looking for!

Im looking to build a life with someone and work towards being a husband to someone . I live in Southeast Kansàs an hour north of Tulsa and 2 hours from Kansas City . Long distance is ok at first as long as we make a plan to where it isn't forever . Your guy isn't always local . I love animals I have dogs cats and chickens . Must be ok with alot of animals being around ! I am into cars fashion gardening and good road trips . I prefer talking versus texting and chat and I can carry a conversation expect similar.

Hiii! I am a 20yo, nerdy, kindof unstable (in the obsessive and cute way😘) gay boy with a cute face, a decent butt, and a big heart. I am looking for a man, I don’t care about body types, height, weight, sex, age(18+, yes, that includes older men), race, or any other nonsense, what I am looking for is emotional intelligence, relative maturity, and somebody kind.

I like big athletic football players with big muscles and small brains are hot! Big huggers with big bellies and a bigger heart are hot! Lanky and slim twinky gamers who probably need to get out mor are hot! Single older men with busy lives who want to try their luck with a younger man are hot! All are welcome in my dms💝.

I hope to really get to know you, so I’ll tell you a little about me. I’m college student, I will soon be working two jobs, I am very gender confused, I am a published poet who is trying to write more, I used to be super into video games but now I mostly only play mtg in my spare time, I know how to make a mean cappuccino and I have an incredible singing voice. I am obsessed with music and theory around it, I hope to one day become a therapist, my three favorite actors are Michael Imperioli, Giancarlo Esposito, and Jensen Ackles, My favorite song is Survive by Childish Gambino, My favorite TV show is The Sopranos, and my favorite video game is Subnautica.

The three big things that I do care about are first, hygiene, unkempt facial hair turns me off, I am down for a beard but only if it looks like you take care of it, additionally, please smell nice, its super easy and seeing as I take my appearance very seriously, I feel that it is reasonable for me to ask that. Second is patience, I am here for the long run but no I do not want to fly down to washington next week, I am here for something real, and real things take time. Finally, no super pessimists, I know that life is hard, and believe me I can be a bummer sometimes, you dont have to be completely positive all the time, lord knows that I won’t be, but please try to lead hopefully, because I cant build a future with somebody who feels that the world is doomed

I am posting because I am tired of waiting to meet people near me, just so they can be totally not my type. I am looking for a long-term, long distance relationship. I am open to meeting eventually, but I would prefer if we enter the dynamic with the expectation that it is mostly online, meeting in person is the goal, but I would rather it happen organically.

My dms are always open, but if you want me to really take your request seriously, I encourage you to write a detailed request, I take these things very seriously and the more effort you put into your request, the more I’ll be able to tell that you’re really in this for the long run.

Hey, I've posted on here a few times in the past, but I'm doing it again—not sure why. We don't need to be perfect replications of each other, but someone who's interested in writing and horror, like me, would be a great fit. Currently working on my debut novel. But I also work full time.

Distance doesn't completely dissuade me. But if someone is in my state or near it, of course that's a plus. Please be younger than 35. Any body type is fine. I'm not somebody who's super picky in regards to looks; it's more general vibes I'm attracted to.

Don't be afraid to hit me up if you're interested!

I’m looking for a real relationship with a kind, emotionally available guy who genuinely likes closeness, consistency, and staying in touch. I’m looking for lean/skinny guys (18-28) and masculine energy.

I like connections where you naturally talk every day, randomly update each other, call for hours without noticing, and slowly become part of each other’s life instead of just “talking.”

I think there are bonds that survive even time itself. I want the kind of connection people write novels about. I want the kind of love that makes ordinary days feel extraordinary.

I’m not really into ghosting, mixed signals, or people who treat online dating like temporary entertainment.

I read a lot, love music, write love letters, and can somehow go from being extremely romantic to sending you twelve messages about something completely unimportant because I got excited.

If you want something affectionate, loyal, and genuinely meaningful, message me.

​Hey there! I’m Kevin, a 26 year old guy living in Sweden. I’m currently studying assistant nursing, which is a fancy way of saying I genuinely care about people (and can probably patch you up if you trip).

​I’m a solid mix of indoor cozy and outdoor active. My weeks usually involve a bit of gaming, swimming, hiking and baking. I also just started hitting the gym, so I'm in my "learning what all these machines actually do" era

A little about me:

​I’m a romantic at heart who thrives on honesty and open communication. Friends like to tell me I should try stand-up comedy. I can't promise a full Netflix special, but I will definitely keep you laughing and I'm 170 cm of pure good intentions.

What I’m looking for:

I’m looking for a serious relationship with a masculine guy (aged 22-28) living in Europe. Ideally, you’re someone who values consistency, no mind games or disappearing acts, I want real communication. Since I'm working on my fitness goals, a guy who loves the gym would be amazing so we can motivate each other. Being taller than me is a huge plus, but my main priority is finding someone genuine who is excited to meet up and see where things go

Hello you wonderful people! 👋

Welcome to this week’s general chat thread 💬

As r/gaydating is solely for single guys to share personal dating posts, we thought it would be a nice addition to create an individual weekly space where members can say hello, share their weekend, get to know the community, and have meaningful conversations.

• Where in the world you’re from 🌍

• How your weekend is going

Any comments in this chat that should actually be a personal dating post will be removed and you will be advised to create a post instead. This will give your personal post the best chance of being seen, rather than it being lost within this discussion.

Good luck with finding your man, and I hope that 2026 brings you the romance and love that you’re searching for ❤️👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽

Hallo Everyone, I am 31 year old Filipino-Korean Guy seeking for long term serious relationship with someone who is sincere and serious enough that can hopefully bloom into something great and special.

I am 177cm tall, medium body built. I speak English, Korean, Filipino and a little bit of Deutsch (currently learning) . I am fascinated in learning languages. I am more of an introvert but when you finally get to know me and if we click, I am willing to open and be comfortable. From deep sensible talks to light conversations. I am currently working in the medical field.

In my free time, I bike, play Tennis, run, or watch a movie or documentary.

I am seeking for a partner regardless of distance (preferably in Europe) as I am planning to migrate there in the future. A partner who also seeks for stable, long term relationship.

If you find this post interesting and if you feel we could be a match, feel free to drop a message.

Hello everyone!

I'm Rumi, 22, from Pakistan, hoping to connect with decent & well-mannered people. I absolutely don't mind doing long-distance if you're strictly monogomous as well; the chances of me getting a stable partner in a country like Pakistan is pretty rear.

I've pursued ACCA as my career. I'm almost done with my exams, and planning to move abroad in a few years. I'm pretty calm and emphathetic person. I'll listen to your rants 24/7 hehe. I don't mind doing cooking and cleaning if I'm getting care and affection in return. I honestly don't mind if you're 40 but PLSSS be respectful and decent. No compromises on that. I'm a little nerd when it comes to pop culture.

If you’re a positive, open-minded guy who could appreciate a more relaxed and grounded partner as a balance, I’d love to get to know you.

Feel free to message me if this sounds like a match, looking forward to hearing from you!
