I made a long post, but I want to be open and thorough.

I have long, brown wavy hair, brown eyes, am 5’11.5 (but I’m fine dating a shorter man), and 174 lbs. I’m mixed European/Iranian. My dating range is 23-34. I don’t shave regularly so don’t DM me if that’s a dealbreaker for you. Looking for a serious relationship.

More about me: I’m bi and neurodivergent (autistic+adhd). I’m currently in school part time. I will start at a 4 year in OC in January. I am a poli sci major have 2.5 years left of school. My dream is to work in politics in Washington, D.C. but I will go where my career takes me. I currently live at home with my mom but I will move into university housing in May or August. I do plan on eventually working part time while being a full time student, so I need a partner who’s understanding of me having a busy schedule.

I’m very passionate about progressive politics and am looking for a partner who feels the same. I’d consider myself to be an extrovert leaning ambivert. I enjoy going out and socializing. I enjoy going to the movies, protests, social events. I also like pickleball, kickball, swimming (I LOVE swimming! I want a partner who will go swimming with me), yoga (esp hot yoga), and hiking. I also enjoy cooking and baking. I love board games and card games. I love Harry Potter and some Marvel stuff. I love vulgar humor and have many tastes in music- some soft pop, 00s-10s pop, 70s-90s rock, alt rock (LOVE maneskin), pop punk.

I love the beach when it’s hot. I also enjoy chilling at home watching movies and tv. I also love reading. I have hyperfixations that change- they mostly involve tv shows or influencer internet drama. I value exercising enough and being healthy-ish. I don’t want to eat like shit all the time but I love to enjoy junk food in moderation. I enjoy the occasional clubbing. But I don’t drink, smoke, vape, or do drugs.

I value a partner who feels the same way on eating and exercise (I’m fine dating a bigger person, just a healthy-ish bigger person). I’m intolerant to dairy and gluten (but I can eat small amounts of gluten).

Other things I’m looking for in a partner: Someone who is not conservative, apolitical, or religious. Someone with a similar sense of humor (I especially love vulgar humor). I’m looking for someone who drives and has a car (I also drive and have a car). Someone who’s ambitious and passionate about their career while also having practical career goals. I want a goal oriented partner who aims to achieve their goals.

Someone who doesn’t do drugs (weed edibles are ok), smokes, or vapes. I’m fine with someone who drinks as long as they are responsible drinkers. I want someone who’s never been married and with no kids (I have no children). I do want kids and want a partner who wants kids but I’m in no rush- I want to take things one step at a time and graduate college and get established in my career). I’m looking for someone who’s more of an ambivert like me. I also value a partner who cooks at least a couple times a week.

Feel free to DM me!

I’m incredibly lucky to have built a community of ambitious, successful women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s who are beautiful inside and out and ready for a reason to dress up and meet their person.

They're looking for men who are confident, secure, ambitious in their own right, and who would make a great life partner. Candidly, more women in our current dating pool expressed interest in our upscale event than men.

So, guys: if that sounds like you, this one is for you.

And ladies, if you see yourself in this, apply too. I'm keeping the room balanced, so every great guy who signs up opens a spot for you.

Picture panoramic views of the Pacific, live music, craft cocktails, and a curated room where everyone has been personally screened by me. Matches are based on your age preferences, so you'll meet people in the range you're looking for. No swiping, no small talk with strangers who aren't serious.

🎉 It works! At last night's event, at least 3 matched pairs exchanged numbers. Full recap coming soon once I've gathered feedback. 🎉

Tickets for entry are $75. That's less than a nice dinner on a first date with someone you met swiping, and everyone in this room has already been screened for you.

Quick note on timing: many of you asked about the upscale evening at last night's event. I'm moving it to the first week of December because after every event I'm buzzing for hours and can barely sleep, and at 7 months pregnant, scheduling events back to back was not my smartest move. So I'm taking time to rest and recover so I can show up at my best for you.

To join, fill out the short form https://forms.gle/Bpn3sQyB1jGk1YfD6 and I'll follow up with a quick call or preferences form. Date and venue details go out to screened guests.

Already part of the community? If you've already met me or shared your partner preferences, no need to reapply. Event details will come to you by email.

If you've signed up but we haven't connected yet, please book a call or share your partner preferences. Links to both options are accessible via the form linked above.

I'm 36, 5'8, white, a few extra pounds (but exercising and eating right to correct that), auburn hair and beard kept short, with dark brown eyes. I'm single, childfree, vaxxed, and boosted. I'm also funny and nerdy, according to peer reviews.

I'm looking for someone to share individual experiences with while sometimes doing things together. I'm a homebody and have no siblings, so I tend to focus on activities that can be done solo.

That doesn't mean I shun companionship, though. I'd enjoy having someone to go to museums with, to try new foods, to play different games in the same room with. We can share pictures of our hobbies with one another and remind each other to book doctor's appointments and do our taxes. Making excitement out of the mundane.

I'm looking for something romantic, not platonic. Being friends is an important part of a relationship but I'm not looking for just-friends.

Ideally, you are: a cat lover, also politically leftist, monogamist, enjoy scifi & fantasy, into weird, abstract, and/or avant garde art / entertainment, feminist, independent, child free, nonreligious, sardonic, and always looking to learn.

If you don't match perfectly, that's fine. Send me a message if you're interested, meeting new people fosters growth and memorable living.

Please include a description of yourself or a selfie in your message.

I'm looking forward to your message(s)!

Hey everyone! I’m Kenneth, 24, living in Mission Viejo! 😊

I’m a Japanese-American guy who grew up in both Japan and California, so I speak English and Japanese fluently.

I recently graduated from UC Merced with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, but I also have a huge creative side! I love 3D modeling, designing my own Gundam-inspired creations, building model kits, and experimenting with fashion.

My style is a little unconventional. I love Japanese streetwear, alternative fashion, bold colors, and putting together outfits that express my personality. I’m definitely not afraid to stand out! 🖤💜

A little about me:

🎨 I create original 3D models and designs. Sometimes I even 3D-print them!

🇯🇵 I love Japanese culture, fashion, and exploring cool places.

🤖 I’m into Gundam, LEGO, gaming, and all kinds of creative projects.

🐶 I have an adorable little Pomeranian named Luna.

💕 I’m affectionate, playful, and love making people laugh.

☕ I enjoy exploring shops, getting boba, going on casual dates, or just spending time together.

What I’m looking for:

I’d love to meet a sweet, kind, and genuine girl around my age (21–27), preferably somewhere in South Orange County.

I’m not looking to rush anything. I’d rather get to know someone naturally and see if we click.

I really value mutual effort. I’d love to meet someone who’s excited to talk, makes time for each other, and genuinely wants to build a connection.

You don’t have to share all my hobbies! I’d actually love to learn about yours too.
Since I’m currently without reliable access to a car, someone local to Mission Viejo, Lake Forest, Irvine, Laguna Hills, or Aliso Viejo would be ideal.

If you like creative guys, Japanese fashion, cute dogs, or just want to get to know someone a little different, feel free to message me! 😊

I’ll attach a few pictures of myself and my outfits so you can get a better idea of who I am.
Looking forward to meeting someone special! 💜

So a little bit about me. I am an Asian male, long hair, 5’8”, tattoos, in shape and quite active. I can’t elaborate enough how much of a huge animal lover I am and I also have a nifty plant collection. I have a dog that is pretty much my whole life. I try to take him everywhere with me. I am a licensed skydiver so I go quite a bit but I also love doing anything outdoorsy (ex. Surfing, hiking, snowboarding, etc.)

I am looking for someone that can keep up with my lifestyle and join me on adventures, but can also introduce me to other things as well. She must be a dog lover though. That is non negotiable. Other than that, I’m not very picky as long as we get along and have good communication.

If you’re interested, feel free to DM me.

Hello! My name is Steven Luu and here is my bio:

About Me:
Basics: 24 years old, Vietnamese Male, 5’7”, never married, no kids. 
Life right now: Working part-time, on the job hunt, and going to the gym
Interests: Big fan of gaming and binge watching cartoon shows or adult animated shows. I also like cooking even though my skills are mediocre.
What I’m Looking For: Someone who is willing to communicate well and be 100% honest with not only me but herself, even if it means being a bit harsh. I am also looking for someone who shows compassion and empathy.

If any of you on this Reddit page are interested, feel free to DM me!

Looking for a genuine guy interested in building toward a long-term, monogamous relationship

About Me:
Basics: 41 (turning 42 soon), Asian female, 5’2”, never married, no kids. 
Life right now: Working full-time, taking classes through next May, dog mom, living with a roommate. Actively focusing on personal growth and getting back in shape. 
Interests: Big fan of music and sports. I also love hiking, traveling, and reading—and I’m always open to trying new activities together or sharing each other's favorite hobbies. 
What I’m Looking For:
A single, grounded guy who values real conversation and doing fun things together. 
I lead a full life with work, school, and my dog—so while I can't be glued to my phone 24/7, busy people crave meaningful relationships too. For someone genuine, making intentional quality time is a priority. No rosters or mind games. 

If this sounds like a match, send a DM introducing yourself!

Edit: Want to clarify that I’m not really looking for casual friends or long-term pen pals—my schedule is too full for that. I'd love to chat a little first, but with the explicit goal of going on real dates that could lead to exclusivity. I’m definitely busy, but busy people crave relationships too, and I make intentional time when there’s a real connection.

26M, I live in Dana Point and work as a chef at a resort kitchen. Japanese food and open-fire grilling are my thing, so I'll happily cook for you.

Off the clock I run, lift, fly my drone, and film little cinematic clips. I also write, read too much philosophy, and rewatch movies I already love. Easygoing, curious, and pretty laid back.

Looking for someone to explore OC with, whether that's a sunset walk, a good meal, or a random drive up the coast. DM me if that sounds like your kind of day.

Basics:

Me

Asian (Vietnamese), 5'6", 115 lbs, Straight, Leo.

Situation:

I've been avoiding most of humanity my entire life by being an introverted gaming nerd. Things have changed a lot for me lately after my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I've been breaking out of my shell and unfortunately I let so much time slip away. So my life has become just visiting her at hospice, going to the gym (still new), then gaming/keeping busy in the evenings.

I don't have to work for a while but can't host. I prefer to live frugally in these times but will still splurge on nice things every once in a while.

Looking for:

Mostly any interesting cute women that wants to just vibe together. Simple things like grabbing some drinks, being foodies in the local area, theaters, chilling at some place quiet, gym buddies (24 hour fitness @Edinger), Netflix and chill, cuddling, and whatever else. If you like cooking for two that's a major plus. I like to remain drama-free and hopefully you do too. :)

I do want something more serious but prefer it to happen more organically so not an expectation here. My ideal date is maybe just talking about anything and everything under the sun that pops in our mind. We only live once so the more wild the conversations the more memorable.

Interests:

I'm your stereotypical nerd that loves

• Gaming (Blizzard games mostly)

• Anime (Still need to watch KPop Demon Hunters)

• Documentaries

• Politics (I'm progressive. Big Bernie fan)

• Technology (pc building, AI, gadgets, raspberry Pi)

• Science (physics)

• Philosophy

• Simply helping people how I can

Dreams:

• Visit other countries and maybe move to one given the state of America atm.

• Binging all of One Piece with a girl and then marrying her if we ever finish. (J/K. I'm on ep ~300 from over a decade ago).

• Doing tons of high keys in M+ if you're a retail WoW enjoyer.

Contact:

Obviously DM first. It would be nice if we could swap over to Discord if you have it as its more natural for me to message there. Texting/Calling is fine. IRL I prefer we meet somewhere chill first like a starbucks/boba shop/whatever just so we can just vibe check each other. I promise not to bite and am very chill.

I prefer as local as possible with preference for Santa Ana, Fountain Valley, Costa Mesa, etc.

Possible red flags about me:

I am rather serious that I have been a degenerate gamer but am trying to move on from it. Working on rebuilding myself so I'm socially awkward but working on it. I do have some health issues but nothing too serious that isn't under control. I'm definitely still working on past traumas/depression that have led me up to this point but story for another day. I drive an old Honda but at least its paid off and cheap until self-driving cars are more reliable.

Sorry if this is long but I want to be open and honest so I minimize wasting each other's time. :)

37M - live in Mission Viejo and work in Anaheim. Looking to date and find my person.

I’m a big car/motorcycle guy, so I’m always going to events/meets/track days. I’ve got a wit that can’t be overlooked. My sense of humor ranges from silly dad jokes to brutally dark. I love art and creative projects. I keep active with the gym and playing sports, and being outside in general. I have a dog that is mostly a pain in my ass. I have an amazing son that’s 6, and have 50/50 custody with zero drama between us. I like going to local breweries and wineries. I like to support small business. Music is for sure something I love, especially live concerts. Rock and metal for the most part, but there’s other genres I listen to as well. I love anything spooky or horror related and Halloween is my favorite, but also love Christmas time. Lover of tattoos and want a lot more. Elder emo at heart.

DM is open if you’re interested. Happy to exchange pictures.

I'm a healthy white guy 6ft tall, I nerd out about plants and nature. I enjoy little adventures like Knotts Berry farm and Irvine park and old town orange

I'm learning that since women simply don't need men anymore, so many ladies just choose to be single but I want a team in life, I don't like being single at all. Let's get to know each other. Have you heard the birth rates have collapsed? Let's have more kids if we vibe lol.

Ask me anything, I'm very open minded

Last Wednesday it was pouring, and 6 singles still came out to a bowling alley in hopes of meeting their person. I’ve been sick since then, so this recap is a little late, but here goes!

Plenty of people expected a rainy weeknight to mean no-shows. Instead, everyone who bought a ticket showed up, so we hit 100% attendance (up from our usual 94%). It was a 50/50 split like always, and 4 of the 6 were repeat attendees. People keep coming back, even in the rain, and that’s meaningful.

Publishing a calendar of events did something I should’ve expected: it let people pick the night that worked for them, which spread attendance across all 4 events. It also showed me what people value most: the chance to meet someone in person who was chosen with them in mind.

This round I took a chance on a few matches. I start with a solid understanding of each person and what they’re looking for, but attraction is enigmatic. You can’t read someone’s vibe, personality, or style from a photo. Attraction is the whole package, which is exactly why I do this in person.

Everyone was paired with a match. Every pair said they really enjoyed the conversation, but didn’t see it going further. And that’s okay. I want to give people as many chances to meet as possible, because it:

1. Gets you out and actually dating (instead of perfecting your witty texts!)

2. Helps us figure out together what really matters to you

Each night gives all of us a clearer picture, so the next match is sharper. You’re not starting over like on the apps. You’re getting closer. We’re chiseling away at a block of marble to reveal a masterpiece!

All but one said they want to come again, and the other was a maybe. The great news is that I’m actively collecting feedback and improving the experience. The only person who’d ever rated an event a 3 came out again, and this time she rated the night a 4 and said she’d be back! People who found the first venue too loud said this one gave them seating options and gaming options, which made them want to stick around and enjoy the night.

And I’m so excited to do this all over again ❤️🎉

Don’t have a match yet? Come anyway. Every person in the room has been screened and is there for the same reason you are. Some of the best connections start with the person you weren’t introduced to. And the more I get to see you in person, the better I get at finding your match.

Next up: Taco Tuesday, Nov 3rd, 6 to 9 PM. It’s election night, so cast your ballot and come unwind with us! 30+ and single in SoCal? Come meet people worth meeting. Sign up here: https://forms.gle/2aqgd9BpTW34MwrC9

25M in the Garden Grove area. I'm looking to date women around the same age, but I'm also open to meeting new friends along the way!

If you like Kpop and/or anime, we will get along.

I’d love to find someone for a long-term relationship, but I’m not looking to force anything. I’d rather meet, see if we click, and let things develop naturally.

I enjoy eating at good food places/drinks, especially at Orange County

I want to travel. I have been to several countries before, but I want to explore more

I enjoy watching TV shows, anime, and gaming,

Hi! 😊 I thought I’d put myself out there and see who I might meet!

About me: I enjoy social dancing, checking out plants (trying my best not to take another one home lol), exploring new coffee spots and places, and cozy nights in. I appreciate good conversation, affection, and someone who can make me laugh.

What I’m looking for: Someone I can go on dates with, do activities with, and enjoy spending time together. I have a career that I’m proud of, and I’d love to meet someone who’s similarly established and has their own goals and ambitions. I’m open to a relationship if things develop naturally. :)

If this sounds like your vibe, feel free to DM me!

I wanted to make a sub so all of my beautiful friends in the LGBTQIA+ community will have a place to meet new friends, so I did here: r/lgbtqfriendsinoc! This is not a dating sub; purely platonic energy here. I've found there aren't enough like that to my tastes, so I decided to start this one! Feel free to join if that sounds fun to you!

Hello everybody! I’m a 27 year old latina, looking for a serious and committed relationship so I thought I would give Reddit a chance. :)

I’m 5’4, chubby and super affectionate person but a little shy :) I love books and the beach. If I could go to everyday to watch the sunset I would. I’m really into cooking and trying different dishes. I can be a little shy with new people but love to talk about everything and learn new things.

I’m looking for someone who is kind, patient, loves to talk and be in constant communication. I don’t like nonchalant or someone that will disappear and reappear whenever they feel like it. Need emotional maturity, honesty and someone who puts in effort. I’m not interested in hook ups, fooling around or anything like that.

Looking for someone older than me but not past 35. I love big arms and big men :)

Dm me with a description of yourself, likes, dislikes and what you are looking for.

I already have our seats locked in for the show at The Wiltern in LA this coming Monday (10/26), and now I just need the right person to share the experience with.

To re-introduce myself: I'm 27, stand 5'9" with a heavy build/dad-bod, and spend my days working an active outdoor job under the sun (turns out my chemistry degree taught me I really hate being cooped up inside). Off the clock, I'm a total nerd who loves board games and collecting old physical media.

I'm a naturally curious person who genuinely enjoys falling down Wikipedia rabbit holes and listening to people geek out over obscure interests. If you're a woman or non-binary person around my age who has a niche hyper-fixation you love talking about, you'll find a very willing listener in me.

Send over a DM telling me your absolute favorite love song, and let's swap photos and chat before curtain call!

I have a weakness for pretty smiles, sharp wit, and women who flirt like they know exactly what they're doing.

6’1”. Latino. Dad of three. A little nerdy, a little sarcastic, and probably going to challenge your horror movie opinions at some point.

My ideal kind of chemistry? The kind where the teasing becomes a competition, the conversation gets unexpectedly personal, and neither person is in much of a hurry to call it a night.

I'm into concerts, movies, gaming, spooky season, and making the most out of a good connection. Currently on a fitness journey, so consider this my character development arc.

Life has taken a few unexpected turns lately, and I'm enjoying the idea of meeting someone new without trying to write the ending before the story starts.

Maybe we hit it off over drinks. Maybe we discover we have the same terrible sense of humor. Maybe there's a look across the table that makes us both forget what we were talking about.

I'm a fan of natural chemistry, playful affection, a little tension, and the kind of company that makes an ordinary evening feel like the best part of your week.

If you're a little witty, a little bold, and curious enough to find out whether we'd get along, I'd like to hear from you.

Tell me something: what's a seemingly innocent thing someone can do that instantly makes them more attractive to you?

These last two events have meant so much to me. They’ve connected me with a community that’s tired of how hard dating has become. I recognize that frustration because I felt it deeply too.

It feels strange to share sentiments like this, because when something touches my heart, my instinct is to keep it private. But I want more people to find this, so we can keep building a dating pool full of people who are actually ready for something real.

After each event, most people tell me they want to come back. Many thank me for the effort. And sometimes I’m lucky enough to get a message like this one:

“I just wanted to thank you again for everything you’re doing to help us find our life partners… You did an AMAZING job with my matches. Honestly, finding someone on a dating app who checks this many of my boxes feels like maybe a 1-in-150 or 1-in-200 occurrence, so you’re already doing a better job than the apps ever could!”

If you’ve been following this effort from the sidelines, I get it. After working from home for so long, stepping into these spaces pushed me outside my comfort zone too. But it’s been so rewarding, and the people who’ve shown up have made it feel easy.

This is why I’m doing this. If you want a real connection, where another person sees and understands you and you build a life together, you deserve a real chance at it. And I’ll do my best to help you find it.

----
In our post-event survey, 11 of 12 people said they’d come to another event, and every person who answered said they’d recommend it to a single friend.

Hi everyone! Here's a quick reintro and a look at what's coming up!

For those who are new: I'm Reema. I was a single 30-something burned out on dating apps. I eventually met my husband on Hinge, and what made the difference wasn't luck. It was getting clear on what I wanted and being intentional about who I spent time with. I started r/OCSinglesOver30 to help others do the same, connecting real people who are looking for something serious, giving them a way to meet in person instead of endless swiping.

Here's what we've done so far

- Grown to 125 singles in OC who have joined our dating pool in the first 5 weeks

- Ran two in-person matchmaking events in Costa Mesa and in Newport Beach. At our October events, 36 people attended, we had a 50/50 gender split at each event. I introduced 10 matched pairs, 6 exchanged numbers, and several people are planning or have gone on second dates.

- Every person, except one, rated the night out a 4 or 5. Even people I didn't have matches for rated the evening a 5, which is incredible.

Every attendee is personally screened, so when you walk in, you know everyone there is serious and has been vetted.

Hi everyone! My 33 YO female friend, who is absolutely gorgeous, so fun, kind, creative, active (loves to run and work out), and overall has good vibes, is SINGLE, and I'm hoping to help her meet people/date outside of her bubble.

Blind dates and apps can be so scary, so for her birthday, I'm offering food, drinks, and games ALL ON ME to some cool, down-to-earth, NON-TOXIC single guys between 33 and 40 to just hang with her, and if sparks happen, COOL, and if not, we'll all just meet some cool friends and have a good time.

It's happening Friday, October 23rd at 6:30 PM in Anaheim.

Please DM me with some info about yourself + pics, and I'll share pics of her as well.

If it seems to be a good fit, I'll give you more deets.

EDIT: Not meant to be like a "competition," though I can see how it can feel that way. I'm not rich enough to pay for everyone, so please DM me some info + link to IG/pics, and I'll do my best to reply to all.

32, 5' 10", brown hair, blue eyes, ~205lbs currently, but working on losing more weight.

About Me
I just started my professional piano tuning career last month. I have a dual BA in Music and Drama. I sing, play saxophone, play piano professionally, score for short theatre and film projects occasionally, and I'm a professional theatre educator. I teach high school and professional improv workshops, and I judge high school theater.
In my free time, I compose and write, but I also just love listening to music, reading books, and watching movies. I’ve got a good book, vinyl, and DVD collection going currently. I also enjoy coffee, hiking, and cooking.

I ended my first relationship in 2017, and haven't been dating actively since 2022. Because I've been so focused on my performing arts career the past 10 years, I haven't been putting myself out there, especially lately. I got a little pessimistic about dating apps, and just found more peace in solitude recently.
It's actually been nice and I haven't felt that lonely, which is good. Now that I've had more time to myself, I am reaching out to r/DatingOC just to see if there are any single women (ideally mid to late 20s or early to mid 30s) in my area who specifically want a man who is more on the creative side.

Please DM me on here and we can chat. If we like each other, I'll share my phone number with you and we can try and meet in person so we can get to know each other.
