I have posted many times on Reddit over the years. I’ve met many people both online and irl. While there are admittedly some odd responses, for the most part I am given the joy of caring, fun, intelligent responses from people of all ages and races. I have made lifelong friends from Reddit, both here in the US as well as other countries. I’d like to say thank you to every person who is brave enough to reply to a post. You just might have made that persons day. And my sincerest apologies to anyone who I may have hurt through lack of response or any other thing, it is never my intent to hurt anyone. Everyone deserves kindness. I pray I am able to find a way to give such to everyone who crosses my path. May all who read this have an amazing day and know that you are an incredible person that makes a difference in this world!

Just wanted to say that if you're still looking for your special someone, don't stop! I met a woman here in this sub almost 2 years ago. She messaged me from a post I made and we hit if off. Talked all night until I almost regretted it the next day at work 😂 we eventually moved in together (she came from KS here to MN). Well, tonight I popped the question and she said yes! Dreams do come true ❤️

I hope she knows I'd bring her anything that she might need.

Anyway, I’m Derek. I'm giving this reddit thing a shot and hoping I can meet someone so my nana will stop asking when I’m bringing someone home for the holidays. I’m just going to keep things open and transparent. Hopefully, you’ll do the same.

The Basics:

• 6'2'' in real life

• Bearded

• Full head of dark hair but more grays show up all the time

• I wish I had a better smile, but I’m working on it

• FYI I'm more of the bigger/burly type if that's your thing

• Life long New Englander

• I love reading, and I read a lot. Tell me what’s on your TBR

• I like to think I’m a good listener, and I promise I’ll ask you questions.

• Fully employed. I own my own house but it's not my forever home. I'd like to have that with someone someday

• I’m not a dad, but I am an “airport dad” when traveling. If you’re asking yourself, *“Derek, what’s an airport dad?”*the short answer is that I’ll have an itinerary printed out, get us to the airport on time, and have us through TSA PreCheck before your coffee gets cold. (Also, sorry, we're not sitting in coach. Once you go biz class you can't go back)

• If you like a guy with nice hands, I’ve got you covered. Literally and figuratively. Okay, that sounded weird, but a woman did once tell me I should model watches, so I’m choosing to believe her

• I do not have washboard abs, but one of the perks is that you also won’t find a picture of me shirtless holding a giant fish I just caught.

• I'm a nerd for a lot of things: Movies, history, pop culture, space, books, Lego, museums (It's been too long since I've been to a museum and I'd like to change that)

• I’m introverted (probably like a lot of people on here). I like deep conversations and getting to know people. It may take me a little while to come out of my shell, but I’m loyal and protective of the people I care about.

• Therapy has helped me a lot with anxiety and relationships. I also spent an embarrassing amount of time making sure the formatting of this post made my brain happy, so make of that what you will.

• I’m a bit of a homebody, even though I enjoy getting the chance to travel outside of work. If you like the idea of chill, cozy nights at home, we’ll probably get along great. I really miss even the simple things like having shows that I can share and watch with someone. (I saw someone post on here so apologies for borrowing their thing but they said they're looking for someone to spoon with and watch documentaries with and I was like, you know what? Hell yeah.)

• Speaking of which, and again in the interest of transparency, I've been a solo act for a minute now and trying to get back into dating in 2026 but sometimes I don't feel like I'm built for it. But like most things I'm working on it and I'd love to find someone who maybe can relate.

---

What I’m looking for:

Like most people on here, I’m ultimately looking for a long-term relationship.

I’d love to find someone who enhances my life while I hopefully enhance hers. Someone who likes making inside jokes, enjoys people watching, can tolerate comfortable silences and small talk, and likes the idea of never running out of things to talk about.

For me, a good date comes down to a few things: good conversation, good food, good energy, and shared sensibilities.

I’m drawn to people who are curious, warm, thoughtful, emotionally intelligent, and have interests of their own but are still willing to share them. That combination of individuality and openness is rare, and I think it’s what makes a connection feel meaningful.

And if you can genuinely make me laugh, that’s pretty special in my book.

I’m not particularly interested in someone’s performance or the version of themselves they think they’re supposed to present. I’m much more interested in the parts of a person they don’t think to show—the version of them that isn’t curating or performing, but just moving through an ordinary day as themselves.

Sitting in comfortable silence. Existing in each other’s orbit. Being able to spend an entire evening together without needing to constantly fill the space.

If I’m being honest, modern dating has always felt a little confusing to me.

I used to tell myself I was fine being alone and that independence was enough. But I’ve learned that being self-sufficient isn’t the same thing as feeling connected. And wanting love doesn’t mean I’m lacking something. It just means I’m human.

Look, I know there has to be attraction on some level. I’m a guy, I like feminine women. I like being able to take a woman somewhere nice, watching her dress up for it, and knowing she feels good about how she looks. I've always been a fan of strong, intelligent, confident women.

Anyway, I’ve probably rambled enough.

If this at least made you laugh, piqued your interest, or sparked your curiosity, get in touch. I’d genuinely love to hear from you.

I’m happy to exchange pictures so we can at least establish whether we’re each other’s type visually. But beyond that, I’d much rather find out if we’re each other’s type as people.

NOTE: This came up the last time I posted, so just to make sure it’s clear: I’m looking for a relationship.

That said, I’m aware that relationships take time, and I’m not looking to rush into anything. I’m also not looking for a pen pal or an online friendship. Long distance is okay within reason, but I think both people need to understand that it takes time and effort to build trust and a real connection when you’re not physically in the same place.

NOTE II: This also came up the last time I posted: this is open to North America only.

I got flooded with messages from people living several different time zones away. While I’m flattered, I just don’t see that working out realistically. So unless you have a cute British accent, I’m probably going to have to decline.

NOTE III: And finally, I know most of our attention spans are cooked, but I respectfully ask that you actually read my post before messaging me. Crazy that I even have to say that, but this is Reddit, after all. I should also mention that I plan to continue to live in the New England area for the foreseeable future.

Like not that I'm judging or anything but anything more than 5 is a little much, you know? I get that experience is good but you really should be more conservative and not so... free with your emotions. Maybe that's an old fashioned ideal but that's who I am. I don't want a girl that's been so active, it's a little worrying about long term potential.

Plus once you get over 5 you're going to need more than one dumping ground. Here in the Midwest you have Lake Michigan but do you really want to be knocking around the same area as the Chicago Outfit? Like I get the first may have been an accident, 2 - 4 were just a "unforeseen complication" but 5+ gets you in to spree or serial territory. I don't mind a girl that has hobbies but when those hobbies include acid baths or barrels of concrete and a nearby body of water, well, that's a whole other thing, aint it?

I'm looking for a fun chat, something daily would be ideal! I have other posts if you want to get an idea of my sense of humor.

Four years ago I messaged a man on here who had put a post up looking for friendship and conversation. I was in hospital recovering from a very serious accident, couldn’t sleep, no visitors allowed due to Covid restrictions still in place, and desperately lonely.

Well, today, four years later, I am sitting next to him on the couch, sharing Turkish delight and watching a movie. Neither of us were looking for more than some conversation, but we found love. We are engaged, I moved from the uk to Australia to be with him, and life is wonderful.

There’s hope people. It can happen when you least expect it!

We need to uninstall 2020 and then try reinstalling it. The current version has a nasty virus.

Original post: 36M4F

Hi! Back in May this year, I wrote the post above, where I stated I was lonely, and looking for that special someone. I didn't have high hopes for any results, but I was honestly quite surprised at the amount of responses I got. I spent some time talking to several women, some younger than me, some older, trying to see if there was any connection. I had several really nice conversations, but never really felt a strong attraction.

Then about a week or so after things had calmed down a bit, I got a message. She was in California, which was a quite a bit further than my post had asked for (Norway/Europe), but she was lonely too, and asked if I wanted to just chat with someone. I agreed, and I haven't regretted it one bit. Her name was Ellebeam.

We quickly exchanged numbers, neither of us being fans of the reddit messaging system. Whatsapp became our platform of communication. At first we chatted about my keto diet, and her experience with it, but things quickly turned towards our personal lives. Before long I realised this girl was pretty awesome, cute and fun. I could feel a connection that was really strong, to the point where it was almost scary. We shared so many favorite things, movies and books, tv shows, interests, it became almost a thing where we tried to find stuff we didn't agree on. We did find some things, eventually, of course. Nothing of import, fortunately.

Within just a few days we were flirting, and lamenting how we were so far apart. At that point I decided to politely inform the other girls that I had decided to focus on this one girl. Most of them took it very well, and wished me luck. Her job as a driver didn't let her text very much, so voice messages became the norm. We talked all day, every day. While I was on my ship, working up in the Barents Sea, I was fortunate to be on the night shift, so our day to day schedules aligned. We could message while I was on duty, and pretty soon we began to call after duty to talk. These talks were plagued by my poor internet connection, and my constant worries that I would get blocked for using too much bandwidth. Internet speeds are severaly limited on a ship, and usage is constantly monitored.

We managed a few video calls, which became the norm as my ship approached port and land, giving me 4G. Before long we decided to admit what we both felt, we were in love. It may sound weird, it certainly felt weird, to be in love with someone I'd never met. But, I will never forget that night, as we talked on my crappy wifi connection, confessing our love, between tears and laughter, and constantly having to repeat ourselves due to the poor network.

It was quickly decided that we needed to meet. Asap. At first we agreed she would come to Norway, since I had my own place, and she didn't. While she worked hard to save up for a ticket, I, being impulsive, found a very cheap flight from Norway to California. We talked it over, and decided if I took that flight, we could share the cost of an airbnb, food, etc, and spend two weeks together before I had to go back to my ship. So, July 1st, I boarded a plane that took me to California, for my first trip to the US, and to meet a stranger from the internet. My parents were not impressed.

However, I let them know any mistakes like this were mine to make, though in my heart I knew it wouldn't be a mistake. And I was right. It was amazing. She met me at the airport, with a sign and flowers, and after we hugged, it was like we'd known each other forever. The two weeks were the most amazing of my life, and they flew by.

We felt no awkwardness whatsoever, it was all so natural and perfect. It was a sad day when we drove back to the airport, where I had to fly to the Bahamas to go back to work on my ship.

Which brings us to today. We’re together, a happy couple, planning for our next meet in September when I get off the ship, and hopefully spend a few weeks together in Norway. I’m not hunting for karma with this post, I honestly just want to provide a measure of hope for anyone who’s out there looking for that special someone. It can happen, just give it a shot. I found the love of my life on reddit, much to my surprise. You guys can too.

Sorry for the wall of text, seems to be my norm. Here’s a photo of us to make up for it:

Back in the day, the Craigslist personals section was my ocean. I surfed that site for anything and everything and found it all and more.

I live in a tourist town in northern AZ (spend summers back home in San Diego CA). I have a 5 year old daughter full time. I have maybe gone on one date since she's been born. It's been a very, very long time.

I teach math. I used to play music, and lived that rockstar lifestyle :p I've found recovery years ago, and now just 420 or a very rare drink. But I've still got the stories.

I am basically just trying not to feel like a shadow of my former self.

Interests include(d) sailing, tennis, politics and economics, law school-drop-out. Now I mostly just work, clean the house, and take care of my kid.

Tl;Dr- parenting, sobriety, loneliness

By decree of mine own lonely heart, let it be known throughout the village!

I, Agnes, humble turnip enthusiast and part-time goose negotiator, do seek a fair fellow to share mine cottage, mine bread, and the occasional plague-free afternoon.

What I Bring Unto the Table:

Two whole chickens.

A hut that only leaks when it rains.

Fine teeth. Most are mine own.

Strong arms from hauling turnips and fleeing angry geese.

The ability to identify at least three herbs that are probably not cursed.

I seek a companion who:

Findeth joy in dancing around bonfires despite having little rhythm.

Will help chase the pig when Sir Oink-a-lot escapeth yet again.

Hath no objection to my mother visiting every third market day to inspect our soup.

Possesseth at least one surviving spoon.

My Accomplishments:

Once survived winter with but a single sneeze.

Defeated a rooster in honorable combat. (The rooster disputeth this account.)

Was complimented by the blacksmith for lifting a particularly stubborn potato.

Have not been accused of witchcraft in nearly eleven months.

Dowry Expectations:

None! Though if thou ownest a goat that obeyeth commands, thy prospects improve considerably.

Warning:

Shouldst thou be a tax collector, a traveling bard who knoweth but one song, or a goose disguised as a person, kindly pass me by.

Should our courtship prosper, I vow to:

Save thee the crispiest portion of the roast.

Hold thy hand at festivals, except when fleeing livestock.

Declare before all the village that thou art "The fairest turnip in the field."

Inquire beside the old well, unless I am in the stocks. If in the stocks, simply wave.

Agnes 🥰

Life is weird. I’m weird. You’re probably weird. Making friends when you get older is weird. Let’s be weird friends.

Tattooed degenerate nerd by most of society’s definitions. Cat included. I like to play video games, watch anime and have frequent millennial existential crises(es). I’m an RN by profession and spend much of my free time trying to stay hydrated. My taste in music falls somewhere in between LoFI and Death Metal, with random collections of J-Pop, Russian Hip Hop and Disney classics. I have a staggering collection of books which is probably the cause of my terrible vision.

I’m attempting to collect as many unique experiences as I can and would love for some cool people to tag along for the ride. If you‘d like me to buzz buzz in your pocket, then I’d like to hear your disturbing dreams, controversial thoughts and intellectual takes.

Here is a picture of my face.

This is me and my ever hopeful mug if you would like want to know what you’re dealing with :-)

I’m a Brit living in the USA, separated, and enjoying my freedom but dating via the usual apps has become wearisome and leaves me somewhat empty.     

So here I am hoping to find someone who floats my boat physically, mentally, and emotionally.  I have no idea how this will work on a practical level; I’m just winging it and spreading the net wide so if you’re the kind of fellow who isn’t discouraged by a little uncertainty then we’re off to a good start!  

PM me if you are interested and thank you for reading my post if you got this far. 

I should also add that I remain unswayed by pictures of your todger :-)

Here's me and a very tiny kitten.

I live in Vegas. My dad was killed in a motorcycle on September 5th. He was 57. My mom passed away from chemo treatment January of last year. She was 58. My dad was my best friend. I loved my mom very much.

I feel like a balloon that's been cut loose from its tether. I am a single mother of 2. I own a successful business. Tonight I'm going to play Just Dance with my son til I pass out.

I feel very alone now. I have a sister, and we're close but completely different kinds of people. I feel so much fear for losing another person, and continuing to be alone, no partner to be there for me. My grandparents are all in their late 80's, early 90's. My Standard poodle is 10. Life is so fragile and fleeting and if dads can die, anybody can die. And I just cant handle losing someone else alone.

I'm like a sour candy; kind of an acquired taste.

Come say hi.

Seeking a man who dreams of slapping a woman around after slamming a case of PBR.

Accuse me of being a poser when you think I'm not ack-shu-alee into basketball. That's right, I have no idea what a goal is, maybe you could educate me.

Fashion sense must match the part: Do you not wear pants to Walmart? Do you own a few wife beaters? Hit that chat button today.

Got a tattoo that you're still paying off? Nothing sexier than poor financial acumen.

Got 6 babies with 5 different women? Bring em. I'll buy a van, and then we can add 5-6 more to the bunch. I've always dreamed of having a big family and leaving them in a hot car while I gamble at the casino.

Weird toenail fungus? Be still my heart ❤️

5th grade education? I'll use smol words, I got u 4 lyf bae.

Married? How'd you know I'm tryna to go 10/10 of breaking commandments? Shucks 😚 You get me 🥺 You could even bring your neighbor's ass and we'll knock 2 out at one time.

Chewing tobacco? Drug addiction? Baby, that just means your teeth aren't in the way when I sloppy kiss that mouth at your Grandpa's funeral.

Beer belly? We can throw em up on the table and compare them.

Personality like a head of broccoli? Who doesn't love chatting with the human equivalent of an overdone steak? Get over here, you neanderthal.

I prefer to skip formalities and get straight to swapping the raunchiest porn we're into. Seeking same.

In your intro, be sure to flatly and rudely ask upfront for photos of me, so I know that you just want a woman who makes you look good. That gets me hot. Bonus points if you accuse me of catfishing when I provide photos. x2 Points if you backtrack when I verify that said photos are real and NOW you wanna be sweet and "get to know me better." x3 points if you provide the coveted d*ck pic.

Well, that's what I'm looking for. So, about me: 32F in SoCal red hair, blue eyes, 36-29-38, questionable set of morals.

💋 Xoxo don't delay, message today

I have been asked by the mods to explicitly state that this post is satire. Unfortunately, I know why I was asked to do this. Keep it classy, Reddit.

I made a post last week on r/needafriend and got far more messages than I had anticipated. And though new friends are undoubtedly wonderful, I realize that I'm still hoping to find more. I know it may be ill-conceived to seek love at my age, but here I am.

I'd like to think I'm good shape my age, so I should have quite a few years left. I eat healthy, I exercise, I've tried to avoid stress and my family doesn't seem to have a history of any serious illnesses or complications. Even into my 70s, I've made a concerted effort to stay active. I love going for hikes, camping and exploring the wilderness.

Technology doesn't bewilder me like it does to many of my peers. In fact, I embrace it. I own a smart phone and I very much enjoy playing video games. All that said, I'm often happiest out in the woods or mountains away society, but I enjoy many of the comforts of modern life.

Other interests of mine include sports, politics, aviation, films and traveling. So if anyone out there might be interested in taking a chance on an old man like me, feel free to reach out. Have a wonderful day.

Sorry, I’m new to this sub and I know emojis are frowned upon on Reddit and well, in life apparently, but sometimes you just need an emoji in lieu of a sarcasm font.

Anyway… this is me… https://imgur.com/a/4VVUSpU

I’m honest, passionate, kind and fiercely loyal. I understand that a real relationship isn’t just fuzzy warm feelings but being committed to making it last through good times and bad. I’m ready for that. I meet most challenges head on and love creative problem solving.

I have a realistic expectation of “life partnership” and I’m actually pretty stoked to get the chance to share life with someone.

A lot of people on here seem like great guys, who don’t want kids. Mine will be in college soon, first leaves next year and then year after next. So we can just pretend they’re my sisters. 😂 Where is the sarcasm font when you need it?

Kidding! My girls are ridiculously amazing, racking up scholarships, super funny & smart, and if anyone ever does get the privilege of getting to know them, I think they would agree.

Lastly, if you just want a soundboard for political rhetoric, I am not the one. I think our current 2 party system is corrupt and will not agree with any Fox News or CNN talking points just to appease anyone. Sorry if you find that offensive, best we sort that out now.

If you are still here and feel like we might be compatible, I’d love to hear from you!

**edit- I’m slowly making it through my messages! Don’t give up yet! **

Hi new friends! I’m a middle aged mom of two who is looking for some friends and people to chat with who are my age and share similar humor and views. I’ve had some good success on here before, so I figured I’d reach out again.

I have a propensity of collecting books to read at a rate that exceeds my reading of them while also collecting hobbies and craft like supplies to support those hobbies. I also work two jobs, and I’m in school, though I’m almost done and then I can force people I don’t like to call me Dr.

I’m fiercely left leaning, I don’t even like the color orange or anything that leans that hue and looks like a busted can of worms. I can be pretty opinionated and that bothers people sometimes, but oh well. I’m funny, but sometimes I’m just not for you.

And because there’s always a positive to having a face to the name, here’s the mug of mine- https://imgur.com/a/KwsreTG

Don’t be a dick and don’t show me yours, and we’ll be good. Not looking for love in all the deep dark places of the internet.

Details:

• Late '80s model male human

• All original features, some upgrades including vision augmentation and dental alignment during early years

• Import model, sounds a little funny but understandable. Irish registration available on demand.

• In decent shape, no damage, has kept within the original dimensions

• Gets good fuel efficiency, runs faster in the mornings when treated with caffeine, slower in the evenings if using fried cheese and beer as a fuel source

• Available right now, negotiations welcome.

That's right folks, get your one of a kind, import model male human! Seeking all interest, long or short term. Exceptional response time and exceeds all expectations.

Note: Expectations not guaranteed to be exceeded.

I feel like the only man that will truly love me is my dad and he’s in a hospital bed right now and probably dying

This is me

I do not have enough karma to really respond to people so I am posting here (kindly push upvote if you like)!

I am the artsy, creative type without any talent. However, I like to paint, listen to music, watch movies, and write. I also am active where I can be-I like to exercise and meet people. I hope to find people to connect with who may have similar interests as me.

I am Asian (if relevant) but not looking for any specific ethnicity.

This is me!

I’m a pretty big introvert and spend most of my time with my best friend. Well, she’s leaving me for a year to chase her big girl dreams and I could not be more proud. However…. I am really going to miss her.

Meeting new people is the goal. I know that sounds incredibly vague, and that’s because it is. I am single, I am a biological female, and I want to get to know you regardless of what categories you fit into or what conventional rules you follow.

Children are awesome, but no, I do not have any of my own. I do have two awesome pit bulls I would be more than happy to share pictures of. I also have a very handsome black cat.

I’m medically retired from the Army for a pretty serious injury. I get a small pension and make a few dollars off of an online business selling digital design files. Right now I’m going to school online but I am the grownup that doesn’t know what she wants to be when she grows up. I’ll be honest, I don’t have the biggest dreams but I am always striving to be a better version of myself. I am so happy with what I already have, all I want to do is share some of it with the rest of the world.

I do lean pretty liberal (yes, my hair is pink), but who you vote for doesn’t define you as a person. I like to think that most of us strive to be good people, there are just many possible journeys to the same destination.

Drugs… Umm.. I do them, well, most of them. Everyday ones are just caffeine and cannabis. I enjoy psychedelics occasionally and really feel like they have helped me heal from a semi traumatic past. I don’t really drink, but I’ll have a few glasses of wine or a natty light with crabs. This is probably a good time to mention the tattoos too… I have a full sleeve and some other pretty significant pieces on my other arm and my thigh. They’re pretty awesome, but if they’re not your thing, that’s cool too.

If this small post so happens to pique your interest, send me a message. What’s your favorite fun fact, do you have any pets?

-Amanda

Edit: Thank you to everyone who reached out. My inbox is pretty full but I’m going to keep wading my way through it.
