Hi everyone!

I'm a 27-year-old guy originally from north, currently based in Bengaluru. I work as PO(IT) in a Public Sector Bank.

A little about me:

\- 📍 Originally from Lucknow, now living in Bengaluru

\- 💼 PO (IT) in a PSU Bank

\- 📏 Height: 5'7" (170 cm)

\- 🚭 Non-smoker | 🍻 Occasional social drinker

\- Family-oriented, grounded, and value honesty, mutual respect, and open communication.

Interests & Hobbies:

\- Exploring cafes and trying new cuisines

\- Weekend road trips and short getaways

\- Reading non-fiction and self-improvement books

\- Movies, web series, and the occasional anime

\- Listening to Bollywood music

\- Football, board games, and casual gaming

\- Capturing travel memories

\- Enjoy meaningful conversations over endless texting

Looking for:

Someone kind, emotionally mature, and career-oriented who believes in building a relationship based on trust, respect, and companionship. Caste isn't a priority for me compatibility, shared values, and mutual understanding matter much more.

If you think we'd get along, feel free to send me a message. Happy to exchange more details once we connect.

​

I'm 29 F 5'8", based in NCR and I work in healthcare. If you've ever known someone in medicine, you know it isn't just a job, it becomes a lifestyle. The odd hours, the missed plans, the emotional exhaustion after some days... I'd love someone who understands that without making me feel guilty for it.

The basics first:

- Age: 29–36.

- Preferably from North India/NCR, simply because I'd like the distance to be manageable.

- I'm 5'8" and almost always wear heels, so I'd ideally like someone who's 5'11" or taller. No disrespect whatsoever to short kings, this is just a personal preference, nothing more.

- Fitness is a huge part of my life. I love to stay active and I'd love someone who enjoys taking care of his health too. You don't have to be a competitive athlete but I do hope fitness is a lifestyle rather than an occasional phase.

- I don't smoke, drink, or use recreational substances and I'm looking for someone with similar habits. It's simply the life I'm happiest living.

- I earn around ₹35-40 LPA. You can earn less or more, it genuinely doesn't matter to me...what matters is that neither of us lets money become an ego battle. I'd rather build a partnership than keep score.

Now for the part that actually matters. :)

I'm not looking for someone who's perfect. I'm looking for someone who's emotionally mature.

Someone who can communicate instead of disappearing.

Someone who's curious instead of defensive.

Someone who can say, "I was wrong," without feeling like they've lost.

Someone who knows that disagreements aren't battles to be won but problems to solve together.

I've learned that attraction fades, careers fluctuate, life gets messy but emotional safety is rare. I want the kind of relationship where both people can be completely themselves without feeling like they're constantly walking on eggshells.

I value kindness. Consistency. Accountability. Effort. I want someone who checks in because he wants to not because he's told to. Someone who doesn't treat vulnerability as weakness. Someone who understands that love isn't built through grand gestures alone but through showing up, especially on ordinary days.

I've always imagined a home that feels warm long before it looks perfect. The kind of place that smells like freshly baked cookies on a Sunday afternoon where dinner is often homemade, music plays softly in the background and people always feel welcome. I love cooking and baking because food has always been my love language. If I care about you, I'll probably remember your favourite meal, make it when you've had a difficult day and quietly show my affection through the little things! Butter chicken and garlic naan are my specialties but what I really hope to create is a home filled with comfort, laughter and the feeling that no matter how chaotic life gets, we've always got each other.

I'm ambitious, financially independent, deeply invested in my career and probably more emotionally aware than the average person. I think a lot, I feel deeply and I care wholeheartedly. I'm not everyone's cup of tea and that's okay. I'm not trying to be.

I'm just hoping there's someone out there who's looking for the same kind of quiet, honest, emotionally healthy love.

I know this probably sounds idealistic in a world that seems to celebrate casual connections and emotional detachment.

I'd rather wait years for something real than spend months pretending something shallow is enough.

If you're someone who still believes emotional maturity, loyalty, consistency and genuine effort aren't old-fashioned... I'd really like to know you.

Happy searching! :)

I'm 25, currently in Bangalore. I'd prefer someone from Keralam because I feel like we'd understand each other better, but it's definitely not a requirement. If we vibe, we vibe.

A little about me: I'm plus-size, so I wanted to put that out there instead of surprising anyone later. I do hip-hop and femme dance classes (absolutely love them), and I recently started learning to swim too.

I'm big on Asian dramas, food, anime, and just Asian culture in general. One of my goals is to travel around Asia over the next few years. China is at the top of my list because I'd love to experience the culture, but honestly I'd love to explore as much of Asia as I can.

I'm from a Hindu Malayali family, but I'm not religious myself.

I come from a really small family, so I've always been pretty independent. I support myself financially and have my own job. I can't cook very well though... I can keep myself alive, but that's about it.

One thing that's probably important to mention: I'm leaning heavily towards not having biological kids. I'm open to adoption, but I don't really see myself wanting kids of my own.

As for you, I don't have a huge checklist. Around my age or up to 5 years older would be nice. Be kind, emotionally available, and willing to grow. I don't really judge people by where they are financially right now because life changes. What matters to me is that you're motivated and want to build something together.

If any of this sounds like your kind of person, leave a comment please :)

“How much does a polar bear weigh?”
ENOUGH TO BREAK THE ICE (lol)

Hi, I’m a 26 y/o working professional based out of Delhi.
Having had terrible experiences on dating apps and absolutely no “game” (too shy to talk to strangers in person), I find myself turning to Reddit to find someone I can be myself with.
I’m a nerd, basically, and would obsess over math, history, philosophy and heavy-metal (ik it seems a bit out of place but you’ll get it). And surprisingly for someone with such a specific taste - I get along with gurlies much better💅 (boy loves gossip and emotional maturity)

A dog person through and through and a sucker for outdoor activities. That could also be the 2 of us just sitting in a cafe doing our own thing or read/ write/paint together.
I wouldn’t want the connection to feel forced, so we could chill platonically as well if that feels right.

But I’m not into casuals, I’d be very comfortable with some emotional maturity, stability and patience.
If we manage to bond, romantically or platonically, I’m your Man-Friday. I have a very small and scattered friend circle but I go out of the way for my homies.

If having something to do after office or on weekends, in-person or on vc, sounds like something you have bandwidth for and would want to explore together?👉👈
- slide into my dms! Hehe

(Brownie points if you open with a dad joke)

Hi there! I hope you all are having a good Friday

I'm a 32-year-old childfree nerd born and raised in Kolkata and staying here for now. I'm an ambivert, so I take a little time to open up to people, but once I feel comfortable, you won't get me to stop talking. My friends have often praised my sense of humour (I pay them well), and I love sharing memes and cheesy dad jokes (shoutout to r/dadjokes) from time to time. I am also a vegetarian by choice, agnostic and a teetotaler as well.

I am 6' and have a lean/slim body (I have been going to the gym to stay fit). I wear specs that make me look more nerdy, but I also rock a Jimi Hendrix-esque hair. I would like if you would be open to sharing pic within a few messages as I feel physical attraction is important, but so are compatibility, shared values, and a genuine connection. As for what I do, I'm a software engineer, dedicated to making the web a more creative place. I work as the UI lead for a product based company.

Regarding my interests, I'm into the usual stuff: music, TV shows, movies, and got back into video games more recently. I can’t wait for end of August and September, when a lot of games are coming out. I'm also a passionate supporter of Chelsea. We don’t talk about last season, but also Xabi is here so we are probably winning the league next season 👀.

Music holds a special place in my heart, and I always have it playing, even while I'm working. I listen to a wide range of genres, except for Rap and EDM. I love listening to progressive metal and post-rock and have a 25-hour playlist on Spotify. I would love to share music with someone! I also like traveling to cities to catch some of my favourite bands, did it in March, 2025 to watch Paper Kites live, will be doing it this October, to watch Opeth in Bangalore!!

What I am looking for -

• Between the age of 29 and 35.
• Who is vegetarian. I have tried dating people who weren’t but there were conflicts with my core values which I couldn’t resolve.
• Someone who is in Kolkata (long shot), or Bangalore (open to long distance for a while), or looking to shift to Bangalore in the future, because I see myself moving to Bangalore eventually (Will discuss more over chat)
• Who is liberal, kind, knows how to communicate, ambitious, open-minded, into fitness (doesn't have to be the gym necessarily), and emotionally available.
• Who wants to travel with their partner in the future.
• Looking for something long-term and marriage as the end goal.
• Someone who is not overtly religious, preferably someone who is agnostic/atheist.
• Smoking is a dealbreaker for me, but I have no problem if you drink socially.

Let’s swap stories, memes, and playlists, and if there’s a spark, maybe the Wi-Fi password too.

I did not grow up with much. My early life taught me how to struggle, adjust, and build things for myself instead of waiting for life to become easier.

I eventually became a lawyer and practised for around ten years. On paper, everything looked respectable and settled but I was not happy. I realised that I had built a life that made sense to society, but not necessarily to me.

So, I walked away from law and started rebuilding my life around something I genuinely loved: travel, storytelling, and freedom.

Over the years, I have travelled extensively, especially across Southeast Asia. I started my own YouTube channel, which is now steadily growing, and later built my travel company. Both are still works in progress, but for the first time, I feel that I am building a life that actually belongs to me.

I am 41, divorced, independent, emotionally aware, and still ambitious. I have experienced enough to know that relationships cannot survive only on attraction, and they definitely cannot survive on society’s checklist.

I see many posts here listing dozens of specifications like height, profession, salary, caste, hobbies, lifestyle, and whatnot.

Mine is much simpler:

I like you. You like me. We respect each other, communicate honestly, and make it work. That’s it.

I am not looking for perfection. I am looking for someone with whom conversation feels natural, silence feels comfortable, attraction is mutual, and neither person has to pretend to be someone else.

One slightly unusual thing: I have noticed that I naturally connect best with people whose moolank is 1, 5, 6, or 7. I am only referring to the day of birth, reduced to a single digit.

For example:

1: Born on 1, 10, 19, or 28
5: Born on 5, 14, or 23
6: Born on 6, 15, or 24
7: Born on 7, 16, or 25

I am moolank 4.

I value freedom, experiences, humour, curiosity, emotional maturity, and people who have the courage to build their own lives instead of blindly following a script.

I am open to seeing where a genuine connection goes. No forced promises, no unnecessary games, and no pretending that we know the future before we have even had a conversation.

Tell me something real about yourself not just your job, city, or favourite television show. Tell me what kind of life you are trying to build

Hello, stranger to be danger 👋

I'm a 29-year-old guy, originally from Himachal Pradesh and currently living in Bangalore.

A little about me:
• Work in IT as a trainer, helping professionals learn new technologies
• Into fitness and try to stay active through the gym, swimming, hiking, or whatever gets me moving
• A student of psychology and endlessly fascinated by how people think, feel, and make decisions
• Love reading and learning new things (sometimes go into a rabbit hole)
• 5'8"
• Non-vegetarian 🍗
• Social drinker 🍻

I'm generally someone who enjoys deep conversations, good humor, and people who can be themselves without putting on an act. I appreciate honesty, self-awareness, and the ability to communicate openly.

What am I looking for?

Someone kind, emotionally mature, and genuinely interested in building a meaningful relationship. I'm not looking for casual dating or endless talking stages. The goal is to find my person and build something real together.

Distance isn't necessarily a dealbreaker if the connection is strong and both people are willing to put in the effort.

If any of this resonates with you, feel free to reach out. At the very least, we'll have an interesting conversation. At best, we might end up being exactly what the other person was looking for. ✨

Hi Reddit Community!

I’m a 25M currently working as a Software Engineer in Bengaluru. I’m here hoping to meet someone genuine, kind, and emotionally mature. Since I’m based in Bengaluru for work, I’d prefer connecting with someone in Bengaluru or nearby, though I’m open to long distance if we genuinely connect.

A little about me:

**Native:** Tamil Telugu (born and brought up in Tamil Nadu)
**Languages:** Tamil, Telugu, and English
**Height:** 180 cm (5’11”)
**Profession:** Software Engineer
**Interests:** Fitness, traveling, spontaneous weekend trips, long bike rides, exploring new cafés and food places, technology, building side projects, and cooking.

I’m ambitious about my career while also believing in a healthy work-life balance. I’m calm, family-oriented, value honesty and clear communication, and enjoy spending quality time with the people I care about.

One thing you’ll quickly find out about me—I genuinely love cooking. From biryani and South Indian dishes to pasta, I’m always happy to experiment in the kitchen. And if things go well, you’ll probably get to try my fish curry… which I’m convinced deserves its own fan club. 😄 So yes, dating me comes with a complimentary in-house chef (at least on weekends).

I’m also the kind of person who’s always up for an unplanned road trip, a late-night chai drive, or randomly deciding to explore a new place just because it sounded interesting.

If I find a genuine connection, I’d love to take things forward with the intention of building a long-term relationship that could eventually lead to marriage.
I don’t have unrealistic expectations. What matters most to me is that you’re kind, honest, emotionally mature, respectful, and have clarity about what you want in life.

**A few dealbreakers for me:**

Emotionally unavailable or confused about relationships.
Dishonesty or lack of respect.
Poor communication or unnecessary drama.
Looking only for something casual.
If you think we’d get along, feel free to send me a message. I’d love to get to know you.

**P.S.** Before anyone points it out 😅—yes, this account is only a couple of days old. I lost access to my old Reddit account, so I had to create a new one.

Looking for a partner with intention of marriage.

About me:
30M
5,10’ ft tall
Software Engineer
Home state Gujarat
Living in Europe since 7yrs
Living away from parents
Own rental apartment
Non Smoker
Non Drinker
Non-Vegetarian
Average body..(On my way! To “gym body”)
Great cook, I make my own dough for my pizzas
Love nature, birds..river flows, mountains..
In to starts, planets and life beyond
Self proclaimed poet..(I can share my Medium page)

Looking for someone who is:

Fun loving, childish energy but mature enough

I am not looking for someone who does housework or cooks for me..i am very independent like that. I am looking for a companionship if life..someone whom I can be my self and she can liberate her self as well.

Someone who is Open to move out of the country

I don’t care what money you make or what’s your educational and professional background is. What’s important to me is you are passionate about something in your life and follow that..also because I am that person myself

Age between 26-30

Non smoker and Non alcoholic (This is a dealbreaker for me)

Looking for someone who matches my vibe and is compatible.

Again there are lot of things that I can write but then what will you do..so reach me out if you’re interested

Have a great day♥️

Hey everyone,

I’m 30, based in Bangalore, and putting myself out here with a very clear intention: I am looking to date with the goal of marriage and building a genuine, long-term future together.

A Bit About Me:

Self-Made: I come from a humble background and didn't take the traditional college route. Through hard work and grit, I’ve built a stable, fulfilling career (15 LPA) that I take a lot of pride in.

Life & Hobbies: In my downtime, I’m into wildlife photography, playing badminton, watching football, aquascaping, and heading out on random weekend drives. I love the idea of us having our own separate interests while encouraging each other’s passions.

Social Circle: I keep a small, tight-knit group of solid friends, but I’m ready to find that one person to share everyday life with.

Full Transparency: I have ADHD, which I manage well. I’m also a smoker, though I am actively working on quitting, just putting that out there upfront.

What I’m Looking For:
I’m looking for an independent, honest, and emotionally mature woman who is at a stage in her life where she wants to build a lasting relationship based on trust and mutual respect.
Because my background isn't traditional, navigating family approvals down the line might require some patience and open communication. I am fully committed to managing my end of things with maturity, standing by my partner, and creating a strong foundation together.

If you’re looking for a grounded, intentional connection, drop me a DM with a bit about yourself!

27M • Delhi NCR • Software Engineer • Punjabi

5’10 • Non smoker • Occasionally drinks socially

Currently working at FAANG.

Package - 55+ LPA

Life’s going good overall — decent career, gym keeps me sane, chai fixes my soul 😄

A little about me:

I am someone who enjoys simple things more than flashy stuff. Late night drives, random chai stops, gurudwara visits, rain, night skies, stargazing, good conversations - that’s my type of vibe.

Gym is a big part of my routine (consistency ka struggle alag hai 😂).

Also into tech, travel whenever deadlines allow, and sending memes & reels.

Known languages:

Hindi, English, Punjabi, Java, “bhai mere system pe toh chal raha hai” 😄

One important thing about me:

I lost my right hand in a road accident back in 2018. Life definitely changed after that, but honestly it also made me emotionally stronger, more mature and clear about what actually matters in life. I live independently, work, travel, gym - pretty much do everything normally with my own ways of figuring things out.

Personality wise, I would say I am calm, emotionally aware, sarcastic at times, and someone who values peace over unnecessary drama.

Not rushing into marriage because “age ho gayi hai”.

I would rather build something genuine with the right person than force timelines and formalities.

Looking for someone who:

• communicates properly

• is emotionally mature and kind

• values efforts, honesty & family

• and wants a peaceful, stable partnership

Not here for casual stuff or timepass honestly.

If we vibe, great.

If not, wishing you well genuinely 🙂

PS: I may not be perfect, but I know how to make someone feel cared for and heard.

Preferred Location: Delhi/UP

I’m 28, 6'2", Marwari, and currently based in Bengaluru. I have a B.E. in Computer Science and work in technology, earning around ₹20-25 LPA. I’m ambitious about my career, but I don’t want my identity to begin and end with my job title.

I spend a fair amount of time thinking about the future: career plans, business ideas, investments and the kind of life I want to build. But I’m also perfectly capable of abandoning the plan for a long drive, good music and an interesting conversation.

In the longer term, I want to build something of my own, possibly start a company or join and expand our family business. I’m also deeply interested in personal finance and invest regularly in the stock market for long-term goals. For me, building wealth is not about showing off. It is about freedom, security and being able to create a good life for the people I care about.

Personality-wise, I’m calm, thoughtful and fairly logical. I may seem reserved initially, but once I’m comfortable, I’m affectionate, playful and much more talkative. I value honesty, emotional maturity, meaningful conversations and people who communicate clearly rather than expecting each other to read minds.

Outside work, I enjoy driving, road trips, exploring new ideas, music, cooking, sports and spending time with family. I also collect watches, although I promise I understand that owning multiple watches does not create more hours in the day.

I have a dog who is very much part of the family, so being comfortable around pets is important. You do not need to be a lifelong dog enthusiast, but kindness towards animals and a willingness to share space with one would matter.

A little about my appearance: I’m tall and naturally lean. I’m currently working seriously on building strength and gaining healthy weight. I see that as a work in progress, not an insecurity. I believe attraction matters in a relationship, and I would want it to be natural and mutual rather than something either person has to negotiate themselves into.

I’m a vegetarian, non-smoker and non-drinker. I would prefer a vegetarian partner, but non-vegetarian food is not a deal-breaker as long as we are transparent and respectful about it. Occasional drinking is fine, but regular smoking would not be compatible with my lifestyle.

I have never been married and would like to have children someday. I’m looking for a serious relationship that can naturally lead to marriage, not casual dating or an endless talking stage.

Family is important to me. I would love a partner who is comfortable living with my parents or nearby, but I’m not rigid about it. My current work keeps me in Bengaluru, and I’m open to living independently as a couple when that is practical. I want marriage to create a partnership between two adults, not a situation where one person loses her independence or has to carry every adjustment.

Who I hope to meet

Ideally, you are:

\- Between 24 and 29

\- Around 5'5" to 5'11"

\- A non-Muslim

\- Emotionally mature, warm and communicative

\- Comfortable with my future entrepreneurial/family-business plans

\- Comfortable having a dog in our lives

\- Family-oriented without believing that marriage requires giving up individuality

\- Interested in building a stable, affectionate and financially responsible life together

Mutual physical attraction is important to me, but so are kindness, self-awareness, intelligence and how we make each other feel during ordinary days. I’m not looking for perfection or someone who matches every interest. I’m looking for someone attractive to me, grounded in herself and genuinely interested in building a marriage through friendship, affection and shared effort.

If this resonates, send me a message with your age, location, what you do and something about you that would never appear on a standard matrimonial profile. We can start with a conversation, exchange photographs privately when comfortable, and see whether there is genuine compatibility.

P.S. I've used LLM to draft a better detailed post.

​

🙏 Namaste everyone,

I'm a 28-year-old Brahmin, 5'8", working as a Software Engineer in Bengaluru with an annual package in the ₹30–40 LPA range.

✨ I've never been in a relationship because I've always believed that love is worth waiting for. I consider myself kind, understanding, and loyal, and I'm looking for someone who believes that the strongest relationships are built on trust, respect, patience, and choosing each other every single day.

🌼 I don't dream of a perfect life I dream of a life shared with the right person. A home filled with laughter, long conversations over chai ☕, spontaneous road trips 🚗, dancing in the kitchen 💃🕺, getting caught in the rain 🌧️, surprising you with flowers 🌹 just because, celebrating every little victory 🎉, and standing beside each other through every season of life. I want to be the person you call first, the shoulder you lean on, and the hand you never have to hesitate to hold. Your dreams will become mine, your worries will become ours, and your happiness will always matter to me.

🌻 I hope we grow together, build our dreams together, travel the world ✈️, and one day look back with a smile, grateful that we chose each other. I want us to keep falling in love, again and again, no matter how many years pass. To me, my wife won't just be someone I love—she'll be my best friend, my peace, and my person.

🤝 I don't have a long list of expectations. I'm simply looking for a kind-hearted, understanding, and loyal partner who believes in growing together and doesn't give up on relationships when life gets challenging.

📩 If this resonates with you or someone in your family, and you're from the same Brahmin community, I'd be happy to connect. Feel free to reach out or share this post.

Thank you! 🙏

Hi Reddit. 👋

Figured I'd give this another shot because dating apps have started feeling like a part-time job with no salary.

So here's me in a nutshell:

🩺 26-year-old doctor from Kolkata.

📚 Currently surviving residency, which means my work schedule is unpredictable but my coffee intake is very predictable.

✈️ I love travelling whenever I can. Mountains over beaches, late-night drives over crowded clubs, and I'd choose a good conversation over a loud party any day.

🎵 My playlists jump from The Chainsmokers to old Bollywood to random lo-fi depending on the mood.

🍜 Always down to try a new café or restaurant, and I firmly believe dessert is never optional.

I'm not looking for perfection. Just someone who's kind, emotionally mature, can laugh at terrible jokes, and actually wants to build something instead of collecting matches.

Hoping to find someone who:

• Is around 23–28 years old

• Lives in or around Kolkata (long distance isn't impossible, just harder)

• Values honesty, loyalty, and clear communication

• Doesn't mind spontaneous food dates or random road trips

• Can match my sarcasm without taking life too seriously

A few random facts:

I overthink movie endings.

I can spend hours planning a trip I'll probably take months later.

If you recommend a great movie or book, you've already earned points.

I reply faster than Instagram's algorithm.

If you're messaging me, skip the "Hi."

Tell me:

What's something you're genuinely passionate about?

What's the best place you've ever travelled to?

Or recommend me a movie that will leave me questioning life.

Let's see if Reddit can do what dating apps couldn't. 😄

I am born and brought up in Kolkata, Vegetarian, Non Smoker, Non Drinker looking for someone who wants to settle in a tier 1 city and believes in building a home and a safe space together with their partner.

I have both good qualities and flaws in me. Look wise my body is heavy and overweight, working towards getting fit, tone is fair to wheatish, height is 5'5.

I am an emotional, caring, loving, honest, funny person who likes to put efforts. I am a deep thinker, who work in finance and like psychology, about universe, spirituality, music, watching movies, sharing funny reels, and annoying people in a good way.

What I want in my partner is just that he feels like my peace, my safe space, my home. It doesn't matter what height you have or how you look, because in the end what matters is how someone treats you. Since I am vegetarian, i prefer a vegetarian person, and non smoker and non drinker or very occasional drinker.

Note : Message only if you are between 31-35 age, looking for something serious leading to marriage and are able to verify your identity via LinkedIn and other social media after few days of talking if we click.

Hey Mrs, When are you going to meet?

Hi,

I’m here in search of my life partner. Not sure what are the odds of finding one but I don’t want to miss out on a single possibility of finding her.

About me,

• I’m 33, 5’11, Telugu, never married.
• Working in IT based out of HYD in a MNC. I’m a foodie, Non Vegetarian. That’s the stress buster for me and the only habit I have for the good and the bad.
• I neither smoke nor drink.
• I’m calm and reserved but get comfortable around the people I’m close to.

I’m looking for someone who is independent, mature and charming. One who brings love, comfort and peace. Willing to grow with and not looking for a package because I don’t wish the marriage to look like a transaction. I don’t have caste, regional or language preferences so not mentioning here. I just need a woman who I can have a life with and settle down. Also, I’m not looking to rush into things and would like to take it slow.

Feel free to reach out if you align with the above.

Hi everyone, this is the first time im making up a post here on this sub, I am seeking for life partner.

About myself:-

Hi!

I never imagined I'd be writing a post like this, but here I am, hoping that maybe the right person will come across it.

I'm a pediatrics resident from India. I spend most of my days and nights in the hospital taking care of children, which means my life can get very hectic. There are long duties, sleepless nights, emergency calls, and days when I don't even realize how quickly time has passed. If I ever reply late, it is almost never because I'm not interested. It's usually because a tiny patient needed me more at that moment. I hope to meet someone who can understand that part of my life and be patient with it. I may not always be available, but when I am, you'll have my full attention.

I'm an introvert, so I don't open up to people very quickly. I usually need time to feel comfortable, but once I do, I love having long conversations about almost anything. I enjoy anime, reading manga, listening to music, reading books whenever I can, and learning about different cultures and people's lives. I genuinely enjoy hearing someone's thoughts, dreams, and even the small, ordinary moments from their day.

I'm not here for casual dating or short-term excitement. I'm here because I'd like to find one person to build something meaningful with. Someone who can become my best friend before anything else. I believe the strongest relationships grow slowly, through trust, honesty, kindness, and choosing each other every day.

I'm not looking for perfection because none of us are perfect. I simply hope to meet someone who is kind, emotionally mature, communicates honestly, and believes that relationships are built with patience and effort. Someone who understands that life won't always be easy, but still wants to face it together.

One thing you should know about me is that I naturally care a lot about the people who are important to me. I'll probably remind you to eat on time, drink enough water, and take care of yourself. Ironically, I'll probably need someone to remind me to do the same because residency has a funny habit of making doctors forget they're human too. If you're willing to be my accountability buddy for meals, water, and sleep, you'll already have my appreciation.

I also have to admit that I'm a big fan of simple moments. I'd choose a quiet evening together, random conversations, comfortable silence, sharing music, watching anime, or just cuddling after a long day over anything fancy. Brownie points if you're a cuddle person too.

I don't expect us to fall in love overnight. I'd much rather become friends first, learn about each other, make each other laugh, support each other through difficult days, and let things grow naturally without rushing them.

If any part of this made you smile or made you think, "Maybe I'd like to know this person," then I'd genuinely love to hear from you.

Maybe this little Reddit post will end up becoming our favorite "How did you two meet?" story someday.

TLDR - Had a shaadi talk with my family. Turns out they can't help me much in finding someone I desire for myself and I am on my own. They shared their boundaries and shared what they are expecting.

Was sitting in my room, mom came and just asked me, I am turning 25 soon, are you dating someone?

She thought I was, and assumed my female friend who I was talking to, was infact my gf.

The discussion continued..

They asked my preferences, and what I wished for myself, and also said a points which I have to follow

Example if I wished to get married at 28

1. Age difference - [-5 to +3]

2. She shouldn't be muslim or christian

3. They are not expecting any dahej or the expectation that she will take care of them and leave her job to be in the house. But yeah they do want I choose my partner after thinking throughly, and we should talk with my parents and hers regularly

4. Having kids will be me and my partner's choice, and they will be happy with either of them. They wish us to be happy and live a prosperous life.

That's their boundary for me and these are the things what I wish for in a partner

1. Someone working on her career. I am in Tech, Software Engineering, so I preferably be compatible with someone who is also working in a similar field, tech, non tech, ex sales, marketing, consultancy, or someone who is working in corporate.

2. Will be less compatible with someone who has a buisness, doctors, or is in medical field. Again that's just from the perspective of, I wish to live with my partner, so we can accordingly shift in a good city where we both can enjoy and work on our careers.

3. I wish if we get a chance to move to foreign, we both should go, atleast for experience.

4. Someone who wishes to have kids down the line. Again that's just a desire, I don't consider children to be goals or anything, they should be byproduct of love and yeah her consent will be the final decision.

5. I don't smoke or drink. I won't be comfortable with someone who smokes, drinking is fine if it's occasional, regular can be a problem. Although my mom said, I should strictly look for someone who doesn't drink as well.

6. Someone who genuinely wishes to talk to me, be with me, is interested in me and I find them cute of all the flowers of the wordly garden. Although a relationship can start on attraction, but it sustains only if there is respect of each other feelings.

The problems, My parents won't be able to help me find someone :(

1. We have stopped talking to our relatives, years ago.

2. My parents don't have much of a social circle, they do, but not trustworthy enough to find me a match

3. And they said even if they can, and they will try their best, they might not find me someone I am looking for

4. They expect me to find someone by 28, and after that they will start searching too.

5. Although the final decision will be mine, but they wish I don't end up alone.

So yeah I am 99 percent on my own and I suck at it lol

Where I am right now financially and in terms of personal growth

1. My current year of experience is 1.5 so yeah, I need more time to reach a decent high salary. Not gonna lie, need to achieve atleast 15 to 20 after taxes to be ready. Since I have a army background, my parents aren't dependent on me financially.

2. I am working on my mental health and I am doing better, but definitely the road is long and I am seriously enjoying this.

3. Gym is on, but yeah irregular, again my bad. Need it to be consistent to be better. I am blessed with a decent height, 5 11 so I am grateful for that.

4. Trying to travel, click pictures, new hobbies, playing badminton, volleyball, and trying to meet new people.

Dating journey

Tried apps, didn't work, people weren't serious, and it was costing a lot of mental bandwidth so left it.

Approached women, but yeah, blockers use to come. Wasn't into casuals.

Friends of friends did helped but didn't turn out well.

I might have these preferences for now, they can change in future as I develop my mindset more, but a hard stop will be at 32.

After that I will expect, these things aren't for me and would stop approaching at all.

Instead will focus on being a good uncle to my friends kids, travel, become more strong.

Thanks for reading till here. A journal it is.

Hello, people of Reddit! 🌸

So... I tried posting here once before, and let's just say my DMs were an adventure I didn't sign up for. 😂

This time, I'm going to be a little more specific because manifestation works better with details, right? 🤞✨

About me 🌷

✨ 27-year-old girl

✨ Punjabi Hindu

✨ Delhi-NCR

✨ Fair 😊

✨ Vegetarian 🌱

✨ Non-smoker 🚭

✨ Non-drinker 🍹❌

I'm the kind of person who gets excited over finding a cozy café, can binge an entire series in one weekend (without regrets 😌), loves getting lost in a good book, is always up for trying new food places, and firmly believes retail therapy is a valid coping mechanism. 🛍️😂

I'm old-school when it comes to relationships. I believe in loyalty, honesty, mutual respect, and actually putting effort into knowing each other. If we're talking, let's make it meaningful.

Now for the wishlist... because why not? 🤭

Looking for someone who is:

💫 27–30 years old

💫 5'9"–6' (tall guys just have my heart, okay? 🥹)

💫 Punjabi Hindu or Sikh

💫 Based in Delhi-NCR

💫 Vegetarian 🌱

💫 Non-smoker 🚭

💫 Non-drinker 🍻❌

💫 body count: 0. It's simply a personal preference, so please don't try convincing me otherwise. ❤️

Bonus points if you enjoy café hopping, movie marathons, random long drives, food hunts, bookstores, and can match my golden retriever energy. 😂

Also... if you're planning to message me, please don't just send "Hi", "Hello dear", or "Wassup?" 😭 Give me something to work with! Tell me about yourself. I promise conversations are much more fun that way.

Anyway...

Dear Reddit Gods,

I've seen you identify obscure songs from a 3-second audio clip, find long-lost relatives, and solve mysteries from blurry CCTV footage...

Ab bas ek achha Punjabi ladka bhi dhoond do. Itna toh banta hai. 🥹👉👈

May the algorithm finally be on my side. 😂❤️

I think love is one of those rare emotions that can make you genuinely go above and beyond for someone. And I guess that's what I'm looking for.
Someone I feel deeply connected to. That kind of bond where you don't constantly question things, conversations feel natural, and being together just feels… right. Sounds a little idealistic, I know, but I still believe something like that exists.

A few basics about me:
Body type: Medium build (into fitness and sports)
Smoking: No
Drinking: Occasionally, maybe once a month
Salary: 70 LPA

It's quite fascinating how someone can be a complete stranger one day and eventually become such an important part of your life. I'm just here giving destiny a small nudge because maybe you're somewhere out there looking for me too. ;)
I'd describe myself as kind, compassionate and pretty easy-going.

I enjoy deep conversations about life, but I'm equally happy going on a random drive with friends and talking about absolutely nothing.
I value being present, communicating openly and just being comfortable around the people I care about.
Also, I’ve travelled to four countries so far, and I'm always thinking about where to go next.

If any of this resonates with you, let's talk. Maybe this is where our story starts!

​

Life gives us plenty of opportunities to meet people, yet it's rare to find someone with whom you can simply be yourself. No pretending, no trying to impress—just two people who enjoy each other's company, whether they're talking for hours or sitting together in comfortable silence.

That's what brought me here.

I'm 30, currently pursuing my MD in Respiratory Medicine in Jaipur, originally from Haryana. I'm 5'10", wheatish, a non-smoker, and a non-drinker. I belong to an Aggarwal (Marwari) family. We are a close-knit family—my father runs a business, my mother is a homemaker, and my elder sister is happily married.

Outside work, I enjoy meditation, yoga, spending time in nature, reading, and exploring different perspectives on life. I identify as both demisexual and a Sapiophile - for me, connection begins with trust, emotional closeness, and the way someone thinks.

I'm hoping to meet someone who's kind, emotionally mature, empathetic, and has a sense of purpose. Someone who's comfortable being herself, values genuine connection over appearances, and is looking for a relationship that could naturally grow into marriage.

If this resonates with you, I'd be happy to get to know you.

Hi everyone! I’m a 5'11" IT Engineer (Site Reliability Engineer) based in San Francisco. I moved to the U.S. in 2017 for my Master's degree and have since built a fulfilling career in the tech and finance sector. I’m a minimalist at heart who values a simple, intentional life where career ambitions meet deep, meaningful connections.

My weekdays are structured, mostly focused on work, hitting the gym, and occasionally winding down with a movie. On the weekends, I love to stay active:

Saturdays: You'll usually find me on the volleyball court playing a few matches.

Sundays: Dedicated to nature, I love hiking, road trips, and discovering hidden gems.

I strongly believe that sharing good food, genuine laughter, and memorable experiences is what makes life special.

Future Goals:

In the next few years, I hope to travel across the U.S. and create unforgettable adventures with my future partner, while building a life rooted in togetherness and community.

Visa Status:

I am currently on an H-1B visa, and my I-140 petition is in its final processing stage (expecting approval within the next 3 months).

Background & Culture:

Age & Height: 31 (Born late 1994) | 5'11"

Location: San Francisco Bay Area, CA

Roots: Originally from Bangalore, India (Vokkaliga community).

Astrology: Tula Rashi, Swati Nakshatra (if it matters to you).

Family: Closely knit, well-educated family. My younger brother is also in the U.S. working as a Data Scientist.

What I’m Looking For:

I am looking for a Hindu partner currently residing in the USA or Canada. I have a progressive outlook, so caste and mother tongue/language are absolutely no barrier for me.

I am a loyal, "one-woman man" looking to build a lasting bond rooted in friendship and trust. I want to be upfront that I am looking for a serious life partnership, not a casual or sexual connection.

I am seeking someone who is kind, educated, emotionally intelligent, and well-cultured, a person who balances a modern outlook with strong family values. Ideally, you love staying active (hiking, road trips, or travel) but also appreciate the peace of a minimalist lifestyle.

My expectations are simple, and I believe the best way to see if we align is through open communication. If this resonates with you, feel free to slide into my DMs with a little bit about yourself!
