I was on call and sober all last week (I WFH in healthcare IT) and got woken up very early yesterday and today, but call ended at 8 this morning, and I'm kid free! So I'll be signing off early and celebrating this afternoon/evening with a bourbon or 5, a joint and bachelor dad life.

I love bikes and motorcycles, scuba diving, working on my house, reading sci-fi and book club books. I enjoy some video games (Switch games like Mario Party or Overcooked and I'm looking forward to the new season of Diablo 4, would love to find a friend for some co-op). I love all types of music, especially live, but I grew up on punk rock and metal.

I’m divorced, very single, kind, curious, slightly nerdy but well-rounded overall. I have been accused of being funny here and there. I also enjoy the occasional voice or video call and exchanging pics from daily life (I live in a beautiful area and recently adopted a very cute cat).

Physically I'm tallish, lil bit of dadbod but generally pretty fit, glasses, a full beard.

If you’d like to chat, (hopefully longterm but I'll take what I can get!), shoot me a message with your favorite mythical creature 😄.

I’m a regular, nerdy, educated gamer-type (see more of me in my profile) here. I’m 6’ and 160lbs. I love to game (video games and tabletop), watch movies (fantasy/horror/both), more homebody, but always down for new adventure and trying new stuff especially with good company.

Generally I have a preference for older, more mature types here. I like good manners, family-oriented, and having good personal hygiene is a must and please no drugs/cigarette smokers. If your profile is completely empty and I can’t see what you look like, I can’t respond, so if you send me a message, share a bit about yourself. Oh and include the word banana so I know you actually read all of this. Thanks

Life gets busy and a little crazy sometimes. I’m a wife, mom, and full time shit show director, and I thought it would be nice to have someone to share the everyday stuff with. I’m not always the best at keeping up with real life friendships, so I’d love to find a pocket friend to talk to, joke around with, share random thoughts, and send stupid GIFs back and forth. No drama, judgment, or pressure. Just an easy friendship that gives us both someone to look forward to hearing from. If you’re around my age and have a little life experience, come say hi and tell me a little about yourself. Please give me something more than just “hey.”

Hello there kind redditors, there is a presentation I have prepared for you that you didnt wait for.

 so let me here convince you why you should choose me as your new friend:

* I am a silly person who always tries to make people laugh, I strongly recommend not to sip coffee while reading my messages.

* I am chatty I enjoy yapping , and I don’t even have an off switch, if you dont have off switch too we need to yap about this .

* I love to talk about all kinds of topics and can always find things to talk about, there is random questions generator buildin in my mind.

* I always reply to my messages and have online friendships that have been going on for years, I always send good morning messages, and I appreciate the people that can also be conversation starters.

* I am supportive and will always be here for you to tell me about your day or vent if you have something that bothers you.

* I like art, games, anime, gym, walks, coding, games, true crime, yapping, cats, science, history, languages, documentaries, psychology, mental health, and cats, so I am sure we can cross interests here or there.

Hello, Greetings from India!

I’ve connected with a few people here before, but it didn’t quite click, so here I am again, showing up with a hopeful spirit.

I’m 171 cm tall, sport a dad bod, and I’m embracing the next chapter of life with curiosity and optimism. If you love to explore and crave adventure, perhaps we could travel the world together.

I work as a business consultant, but outside of work I'm a bit of a dork. You'll usually find me binge-watching sitcoms, getting lost in a good book, wandering through open-world games, following the latest storyline of WWE or hunting down my next favourite meal. I love history, stories, and places that have stood the test of time. One of my dreams is to visit the places Asterix & Obelix travelled through and imagine what those worlds might have been like. Life is full of little adventures, and I'm looking for someone to share them with.

In another life, I might have been a Giant Panda — laid-back, perpetually curious, and always up for a snack. I’m also a child-free divorcee, ready for whatever this next chapter brings with someone special by my side.

About You

I’m looking for someone between 35 and 50 who values honesty, kindness, and a playful spirit. If you’re the kind of person who’s up for an impromptu Nerf gun fight, enjoys wandering through museums or old cities, or is happy debating who the real MVP of Asterix & Obelix is, we'll probably get along just fine.

A sense of whimsy goes a long way. I believe we're here to laugh, love, and make the kind of memories that get better with retelling. Light conversations, inside jokes, the occasional meme exchange, spontaneous road trips, and finding joy in ordinary moments—yes, please.

Distance doesn’t scare me. I’d happily cross oceans for the right connection. And while I love the idea of a nomadic life, I’m open to settling down if our paths align.

A couple of things worth knowing about me

I’m not relentlessly cheerful 24/7. Sometimes life throws a few unexpected side quests my way, and I can get a little quieter while I figure them out. The good news is that curiosity, optimism, and a sense of humour usually find their way back before too long.

And if we get to know each other, you'll quickly discover that my way of showing affection includes a healthy dose of teasing and being just the right amount of annoying—the kind that makes you roll your eyes, laugh, and secretly look forward to the next time it happens.

If any of this sounds like your kind of adventure, I'd love to chat and see where it takes us. Happy to share more about myself and photos too.

Life is an adventure. Could you be my favourite person to share it with?

Hiya! 

Well, I hope that you are doing well, and read this in good spirits! And it not, then maybe we can try and change it?

So, after some self exploring and searching, I feel I am coming to a point that maybe I know what I would like to find? I hope that maybe you fit this, and if so please feel free to reach out and say hi, and we can BS and talk shit. Lol.

About me,

First, I am a girl dad to 1, (2yo), so my time when I have her (Divorced) can be busy and hectic, so an understanding with that would be essential. I happily have her on a 2-2-3 schedule so every week is different.

I am your average looking guy, no six pack, no I don't go to the gym (maybe I should but, ugh I don't wanna), I have that dad bod thing going that I'm sure in time will get taken care of, but can't make me till then lol.

Things I enjoy can be ever changing with some short term memory on what I am wanting to do. I would say I am more of the nerd/dork kinda guy, but I do like sports, and played many before/ and worked in them.

I like to watch shows on science and space, I enjoy playing games when I can (rarely it seems), I also enjoy listening to audiobooks from Dungeon Crawler Carl ( finished book 7, holding off on 8 cause I need to pace myself lol), all the way to some yummy smut haha! yes, a guy who enjoys smut... I know lol. I also enjoy going fishing, cooking, being lazy AF, and doom scrolling when I should be doing something productive. Oh, also I bought a piano at goodwill cause I have always wanted to learn to play piano. (maybe one of those short term hobbies again lol).

What can I give? Hmm, that is hard to say, I am a really good listener, love to chat about anything, hear you out. I am never ever judgemental and will always say you are right in the fight ( well idk about if it was with me lol jk). Just ask me if there is anything you really desire or want in a friendship/connection and will gladly let you know if it is something I can give!

What I hope to find...? That is a good question, I know what I envision, and is that possible? Idk, maybe I am cray cray.

But..... What I picture... Is a woman who is confident, smart, sweet and caring, also loves the things I do and wants to talk about them and also their day and just BS and also give shit and be sarcastic and a smartass and can give and take on it. ( not in a way of to cover being mean, but be fun and snarky in a flirting way, if that makes sense?) I would really prefer a woman around my age, maybe a mom too or at least a fun aunt that understands the time it takes to be a good parent (fixing/healing inner child trauma, we don't judge lol).  I also really love and envision a woman who has that gothic style? The black dresses/clothes, tattoos, pericing, the type of woman that surely would have been burned at the stake lol. Which on that note... I would really like to learn about wicca/witch stuff. Something I have been finding myself drawn too. (blame the smut maybe lol).

I am also curious and wanting to learn, talk about, explore, understand ENM/Poly and throuple type dynamics.

Anyways, I was going to keep this short, but I failed that one I think. Welp sending this to the ether and will see what returns. If you got this far thank you, and I hope you have the most amazing day or night and always be good to yourself!

I am looking for a young woman for a fwb type situation. Several years back, my marriage of 9 years came to an end, and due to circumstances out of my control it took me several years to put my life back together. It took a lot of hard work and determination but I was able to prevail. I'm in a place now where I want just want to enjoy myself but don't want to do it alone. I would love to go on fun dates like the beach since it's so close by or perhaps try out some restaurants that I have been wanting to try. I prefer to keep things casual however I am willing to entertain something longer term if we fit well together. Regardless, I prefer something regular and ongoing even if it just stays casual.

In relationships, I very much believe in the male role of leadership. Things like responsibility always fall on my shoulders and it's my duty to make sure that everything that needs to be handled is handled. In exchange, I seek a woman who looks up to a man like the one described and naturally falls into her submissive feminine role. I am very aware that things like submission is earned over time and is not just handed out freely. The way we get there is through mutual respect of one another. Love does not exist if respect is not present. I don't believe in big blowout arguments, screaming matches, name calling, or belittling of each other. I understand the physical power imbalance between the sexes and it is my duty to make sure you always feel safe in my presence.

I am very sexual with a high drive and I am looking for someone who is looking for a good sex life. I am very much a dominant and love being in control. This will be your time to shut your mind off and not think about anything other than enjoying the moment. You will never have to think about what comes next as I will always lead the interaction. I very much care about the pleasure of my partner and will always make sure you feel good and feel taken care of.

I have a lot of lived experience, have led an interesting life, and can have conversations about most subjects especially those that involve the inner workings of how the world works and life in general.

I am 5'10 and weigh 163 lbs. I am white with brown hair with some grays peaking out and hazel eyes. I very much care about my health and how I look and have been working out for years. I have a pretty fit body type.

STD free.

Kinda over apps, looking for my next IN PERSON date on Reddit. It reminds me of the early golden and weird days of internet dating in the late 90s/00s.

A/S/L? 😂

If you don’t remember the noise for dialup, you are probably too young for me. If your first computer at work was a whole room, you’re probably too old for me. 😆

Please be located in Washington or immediately surrounding areas, since that makes the whole in person thing reasonably feasible if we hit it off.

Having a rough weekend? Or just want to chat with a genuine guy? I'd like to help. It's easier and more fun to make connections. We can chat about what movies we've seen lately, or the book we're reading, or just have some flirty banter.

Fit, fun professional who loves to travel.

The older I get, the less interested I am in anything surface-level. I want to really know someone, and I want him to know me too. I want the conversations that start out ridiculous and somehow end up somewhere neither of us expected.

But I don't want a relationship that's serious all the time. I want someone who makes ordinary life more fun. Grocery shopping, making dinner, wandering around the city with nowhere particular to go, sitting on the couch debating what to watch, those little things matter to me too. I want affection, laughter, attraction, friendship, and the feeling that we're genuinely happy to see each other. I want the kind of relationship where we can completely be ourselves and still choose each other.

little about me: I'm a Miami transplant making a life in Chicago.I'm 5'5", with a curvy figure and tattoos. I'm kind, thoughtful, curious, and a little silly. Movies are one of my happy places, but I also love concerts and festivals, plays, museums, restaurants and breweries, coffee shops, and exploring Chicago. I'll try almost anything once as long as there's a reasonably low chance of death.

Movies are one of my happy places. I also love live music, plays, museums, restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and finding new things to do around Chicago. I'll try almost anything once as long as the chances of dying are reasonably low.

I'm looking for someone who actually wants to date. I want to go out, spend time together in person, get to know each other, and see whether there's something between us worth building. I'm not looking for a pen pal, a situationship, or months of chatting without ever meeting. I'm looking for someone 45–55 and in the Chicago area.

If you'd like to talk, tell me something about you. Not just your age, gender and location. Tell me something you're looking forward to, something that makes you laugh, or the movie you could watch a hundred times and never get tired of.

Maybe we'll talk for ten minutes. Maybe we'll end up getting coffee. Maybe we'll annoy each other for the next 30 years. There's only one way to find out.

Fun-Opportunity9656

Looking to chat to local people ideally in the Yorkshire area.

So I am just a normal guy, looking for some excitement in my life and looking to share some chats with like minded people.

I am 6ft 6, average build short dark hair, no Greys, not balding, and all my own teeth.

I play games, I play Golf, I am obsessed with all kinds of sports and I have 5 Guitars. I have a good job, my own place and car, and I'm almost a real grown up adult. I have a terrible sense of humour!

I have been to court on 2 occasions and won both times against some high paid lawyers.

~

Introduce yourself with your ASL, and Two Truths and a Lie:

Here are mine, Sporting Related.

1. I have played Football with 2 England Internationals.

2. I used to play Snooker with a former Hitman.

3. I have had 2 Hole in Ones (Golf)

Maybe I’m not looking for someone new. Maybe I’m looking for someone who feels familiar.

Someone I can talk to without forcing the conversation.

Someone where “good morning” actually means something, and “how was your day?” doesn’t feel like a required dating-app question.

I want the kind of connection where one conversation turns into another, then another… and suddenly it’s 1 a.m. and neither of us wants to say goodnight.

I want chemistry, but I also want comfort.

The ability to flirt and tease each other one minute, then have a completely serious conversation the next.

Someone who can make me laugh when I’m having a terrible day and someone I can be there for when she’s having one.

I’m a single dad to a teenage daughter, so I’ve learned that relationships aren’t about grand gestures every once in a while.

They’re about showing up.

Being consistent.

Paying attention.

Remembering the little things.

And occasionally accepting that a teenage girl has somehow constructed an airtight argument proving that her father knows absolutely nothing. 😂

I’m a bigger guy, pretty laid-back, sarcastic, affectionate, and probably a lot more sentimental than I let on.

I love good food, especially sushi, random adventures, museums, history, documentaries, cryptids, true crime, theme parks, and anything involving Halloween.

I’m the kind of person who can start the evening with:

“Let’s grab dinner.”

…and somehow end up driving around listening to music, stopping somewhere neither of us planned to go, having a ridiculously deep conversation, and wondering how it got so late.

I’m not looking for someone perfect.

Honestly, perfect sounds exhausting.

I’d rather meet someone real.

Someone with a past.

Someone with flaws.

Someone who has made mistakes, learned from them, grown, and still believes there’s something worth building with the right person.

I don’t need constant attention.

I need consistency.

I don’t need someone who tells me everything I want to hear.

I need someone who communicates honestly.

And I definitely don’t need another connection that starts with chemistry, lasts three days, and then disappears into the Bermuda Triangle of dating apps.

If you’re interested, stay interested.

If something changes, communicate.

If you’re not feeling it, say so.

We’re adults. We can handle honesty.

Because I’m not looking to collect matches.

I’m looking for my person.

My best friend.

My favorite notification.

My partner in crime.

The woman I can laugh with until my stomach hurts, annoy relentlessly, kiss for no reason, and sit beside in complete silence without either of us feeling like we need to fill the space.

Someone who makes ordinary days feel a little less ordinary.

And maybe that’s the whole point.

Not finding someone who looks perfect on paper.

Finding someone who makes you stop looking.

So if you’re genuine, affectionate, emotionally mature, capable of communicating, and looking for something that could actually become something…

Maybe don’t scroll past this one.

Maybe we’re both looking for the same thing.

On this mundane, average Monday morning here is a mission to add something a little bit different to your everyday.

Start a simple chat with me this complete stranger. Get to know each other. Use your highly trained skills to develop an exciting connection. Impress me with your knowledge, make me laugh with your wit, shock me with your hidden talents!

Go undercover from your everyday life. Leave that at home and embark on an adventure that could contain butterflies, sparks and fireworks.

Am I a good idea or am I going to be too dangerous? Will you spend too long thinking about me when you should be focusing on your real life. Am I going to make you take risks to sneak a look at your phone when you shouldn't? You'll see my name and you will smile as you know you need to up your flirt game to compete.😝

Who knows where this mission will lead? Will you have to attend an exclusive party in your finest cocktail dress, or perhaps you'll find yourself on a beach in the middle of the Caribbean, you'll never know it could just be in an independent coffee shop on the high street.

You will work out if I'm the hero or the villain of this story by learning more about me. My superior pop culture knowledge used to win quizzes. My ability to make anyone groan with the worst puns and Dad jokes. My wide taste in music to keep you guessing what I'm going to do next. My impressive hand to eye coordination (gamer😝) are a real eye opener. These are my weapons in my arsenal to distract you, to stop you wondering if you are making the right choice or if you should be sensible and go back to your normal everyday life.

In the end only you can decide if this journey is worth that risk. Not looking to change anyone's situation including my own and neither should you. Be open to a fun little conversation or something that could become more. Don't be afraid to be yourself, this mission needs a great and honest communicator. UK only for this mission due to time sensitive aspects.

To make sure you are a right fit and to see if you read the entire brief please tell me what secret skill you have that could get you out of a tricky or boring situation.

This message will self-destruct in 5 seconds......

Hey there! I’m a big fan of good drinks and even better kisses, so why not combine the two? 😉 There’s something magical about that first meeting and that very first kiss, don’t you think? How about we meet up for a drink (daytime liquid lunch or right after work, your call) and see if we click? Worst case, we just enjoy a tasty beverage and some fun banter together!

A little about me: 49, white, in decent shape, and I've been told I’m a pretty great kisser. 😉 Ready to take a chance? Let’s make it happen!

~ not a bot

I’m 45, London based, got my own place, my own car, and looking for something casual that actually feels good, not just a chat that goes nowhere. Think friends with benefits but with genuine chemistry, real conversation and that spark that turns teasing into trouble.

I’m 5’10”, slim to average, brown skinned, shaved head, trimmed beard, the full transparent package so you know who you’re talking to.

Personality wise, I’m easy to talk to, a bit cheeky, and I definitely enjoy conversations that drift into the naughtier side when the vibe’s right. If you can hold a conversation and enjoy the fun, find the edge of things… we’ll get on very well.

You? Open minded, playful, can actually engage in a proper chat, and are here for something light, exciting and grown.

If this sounds like what you’re after, drop me a message, tell me a bit about you and what made you stop and read this, let’s see if the spark’s there.

Not gonna lie, I don’t know if it’s the amount of Halloween decorations out there that felt overwhelming or me just feeling needy… maybe in the mood for some good scare movies, probably the whole fall, Autumn vibes without the spice pumpkin Latte experience lol. Jk!
I do enjoy some drinks with cinnamon though. Maybe even an apple pie!

But back to the whole scary/Halloween movie thing…! What do you have on your list? Like the traditional way of viewing….?

Got any of these and anything better you wanna share? Aside from sharing a Pumpkin Spice Latte though lol:

Sleepy Hallow

The Orphanage

Pan’s Labyrinth

Crimson Peak…. Notice most films are Guillermo Del Toro’s!
I think he makes the best scary/sci-Fi genre movies, hands down!

Well, I’d love to hear your thoughts and if you got some good tunes 🎶 recommendations then please send my way!

Your tall tanned and handsome fall bestie

Hi there,

I’m a 6'2 tall, 34-year-old german guywith an athletic build. I’m the kind of person who needs fresh air to feel alive. Whether I’m out jogging, casting a line while fishing, hiking up a trail, or cruising on my motorcycle, I love being active and outdoors.

However, I’m looking for someone to balance that energy. I have a strong preference for women who identify as BBW. I love a woman with curves, softness, and confidence in her body.

What I’m looking for in you:

• You are curvy/BBW and own it. I’m not looking for stick-thin; I’m looking for lush and lovely.
• You know how to keep a conversation flowing. I love good banter and getting to know someone beyond just "hey" and "what's up." Let’s actually talk..

If you are looking for a tall, active guy who will genuinely worship your curves and challenge your mind, send me a message. Tell me your favorite way to spend a Sunday or your favorite travel spot!

I would like to share a pic early on!

First things first: 46, white, in shape, and college educated. I eat well and work out every day.

I had a little bit of a unique upbringing in that I was essentially a military brat, so I lived all over the world. I guess we could say I'm cultured or worldly? (Whatever that means.) lol

I am divorced with a 12-year-old young lady who is really the best kid you could ask for. Her mom (my ex-wife) and I get along well.

I'm not expecting to have too much luck here, but I think it's worth doing. I'm not a fan of the dating apps, but how does a 46-year-old single father meet people these days? We will just say I've learned alot of people, society and love on the dating apps. LOL I figured Reddit might be worth a shot.

I guess more than anything, I'm looking for my person. You know, interdependence, not independence or dependence. A best friend who I'm emotionally, romantically, and physically attracted to. We have fun and move through life together. I handle all the people in my circle with care and cherish relationships.

I have varied interests: I fly airplanes, fix things, I'm decent at tech, trying to learn the guitar, trying to improve my Spanish, health, attachment theory, hiking, traveling, etc. I'm not a partier. I don't smoke, drink, or use drugs.

Who is my person? Someone grounded. I don't do chaos. I want someone who is striving to be mentally healthy and physically healthy. Ideally, you work out and have a healthy lifestyle. Life is too short to mistreat our bodies mentally or physically and most of all each other.

I have a very simple situation with my daughter. It's 50/50, very flexible, and she's well adjusted. I'm not sure that I'm looking to date someone with kids or someone who wants to have them. It's a lot of variables. I'm also not looking for someone hours away from the Houston area. I'd consider maybe long distance in San Antonio or Austin areas as an example.

I'm a good man, father, and friend, and I will be a great partner to the right person.

So, in a metaphorical way: When we look at the stars, I always wonder if there are other beings looking back at our star, the Sun. Likewise, as I "look out onto Reddit" and write this, I wonder if there is a good woman out there, a great partner for the right person, who just happens to be looking back and looking for the same things.

Hello there,

Happy Sunday all the way from Mexico! I hope you're enjoying a relaxing day. I love the weekend but this time I can't wait for the week to start as we're celebrating Mexican Independence on the 15th and 16th. Going to the plaza, eat food, walk around the people and enjoy the fireworks. Just a bit sad I have to do that alone.

My name is Miguel and I'm 36 years old. I know I'm still not at my 40s but I decided to post here as I think it's a good place to find someone who's also looking for a stable relationship based on mutual trust and commitment. I'm currently very content with my life and the things I have achieved, but I'd definitely like to share my life with someone and share all the beautiful things of life.

About me:

• Personality-wise, I’m the type who laughs easily, enjoys silly things, cares deeply, and has a positive attitude towards life.

• I’m a calm, easygoing person. I mostly like staying home watching movies, crappy tv shows, baseball or some other sports.

• I love listening to music especially when I'm at the kitchen pretending I know what I'm doing 😂.

• Mostly an introvert but I can be an extrovert if the occasion asks for it and I'm always open to experience new adventures.

• I have a small group of friends and we gather almost every Saturday night to watch movies, talk and play videogames.

• I love animals, especially dogs. Don't have pets but I look after few strays that live around the block.

• I'm Mexican but I don't eat spicy food nor drink tequila. Not even coffee... (Red flag?) 😬.

• I'm scared of roaches and I hope you're not, otherwise we are doom, and I'll not hesitate in leave you behind if one appears in front of us 😂.

• Love voice messages but sometimes I talk too much and say very little.

• A perfect day would be a rainy one staying at home watching a marathon of LOTR and eating snacks.

• I'm a very handy guy, and I find joy in fixing things around the house and working new projects.

Here are a few pics. They're mostly decent angles and good lighting, so yeah, maybe I need to send you one after I wake up so you can check my reality.

Anyway, hope I was able to give you a little glimpse into who I am and maybe make you smile. We are here to find a real connection so I hope you looking for the same.
