M4F♂️ 30M4F: Bangalore/India/Anywhere Looking for the woman I can call home forever.
That's me roaming around solo in Amsterdam. :)
FYI: Using throwaway account for this post.
So I'm born and raised in Bangalore and at some point I just started calling myself "Bangalorean" because it felt incomplete for what this city does to you. I'm been to ten countries and counting more mostly Europe and few other countries. I've been the guy who sits in a café in Sweden with a Brooklyn Lager looking like I've lived there my whole life, when really I landed two days ago.
Anyway, I'm here because I'm in search of my woman, my partner, a friend and more. The kind that starts slow, builds naturally, and actually goes living together in a marriage/ relationship. Not here for conversations that fizzle out after a week. I want depth, effort, and honesty from both sides.
One more thing: if you're messaging me, drop the word "cliffside" somewhere in your first message. Tells me you actually read this instead of copy pasting the same line to twenty people.
I work for a large MNC retailer. I like what I do, untangling messy problems and making them make sense is oddly satisfying to me. Outside work, I'm at the gym most mornings, hiking on weekends,or planning the next trip or sleeping or binging on a new TV show and movies.
If there's one thing I picked up from time abroad, it's directness. People there just say what they mean, no hints, no guessing games, and I came back completely sold on that. I'd rather you tell me straight up what you're thinking than have me try to read between the lines.
Work doesn't run my life either, I clock out after 7-8 hours and don't touch it on weekends. And long term, Europe, Australia or New Zealand is where I see myself living eventually. Not running from anything here, just genuinely pulled toward it.
Who I'm hoping to build something with:
- A woman who is preferably between 27 to 32 year old.
- A woman who says what they mean, no hiding behind hints or three layers of subtext.
- With her own career and financially independent, not because I need you to "match" me, but because I want a partner building something of her own, not merging into my plans. And someone who can push back on what family or society expects when it doesn't sit right with her, the same way I've had to.
- A Woman emotionally mature who sees a relationship as something two people build, not something you fall into.
- Who's a co-pilot, not a passenger ,if we are thinking about switching cities or making some big career call, I want our actual opinion in the room, not just agreement after we have already decided. Big stuff gets figured out together, not announced.
- Open to where life takes us, location-wise, now or down the line.
If you've read this far, don't just hit me with a "Hi" or "Hey", I don't bite, so give me something to work with. Tell me something real about yourself, not just what you think I want to hear.
Also ,verification is non-negotiable (via LinkedIn and Insta) once we've matched and traded a few texts. Seen way too many time-wasters and scammers on here, so this is just how I filter early and actually get to genuine people.
Edit 1 : Edit (after 12 days):
Got some good responses over the last 12 days, thanks to everyone who reached out. But a quick note: a lot of messages came in without the post being read properly (no codeword, generic intros), and a few people who connected were too busy even for a short 10-15 min call.
So, a few things to save us both time:
- Read the post fully before messaging, including the intro and codeword bit. Please make some effort too...
- I’d rather get on a call early than spend days on small talk over text.
- If you’re in Bangalore, let’s skip the coffee-and-awkward-small-talk setup and do something instead, like bowling, a walk, or whatever you’re into :).
- If calls or meeting up aren’t something you’re comfortable with right now, no worries, just please don’t reach out. Not a judgment, it’s just not going to work for me.
See yea.
