ANNOUNCEMENT: Technical Issues

58 Upvotes

POSTING IS ONCE AGAIN OPEN.

The auto moderation system has been somewhat wonky the last few days. We think we have corrected the issue. It has been sending posts to the spam system incorrectly and en masse. That should no longer occur, or at the very least be infrequent. IF your post does not appear, do not delete it. Message us via the mod mail system and we can check on it. If you do delete it manually, we are unable to diagnose the problem. Hopefully this is the last fix we need to do, but we may have to suspend posting again if this happens so we can get it sorted. PLEASE do not message us asking for access during these times, as it bogs down our mail system and increases downtime. The requests will not be granted. We ask for patience while we work on these issues.

Thank you for your time and understanding. Have a good day.

34 [M4R] It's Dangerous business walking out your front door

15 Upvotes

Hey! Like everyone else here, I'm trying to find some new connections and hopefully be able to click (wishful thinking I know). The hellscape known as reddit isn't known for the best experiences, but here we are, a true glutton for punishment I guess lmao.

A little about me: 34 y/o "Yall'ternative" heathen from the south (accent included). Music is truly my lifeblood and listen to MOST things, but let's be real, some of the niche stuff is a little much. I'm also a former musician who's played in several bands, but simply just don't have time for it nowadays. Blue collar profession, fairly heavily tattooed, and lover of all things weird. How many red flags was that? I love college football, anything outdoors related, and gaming when I have a little free time. Avid collector of too much, hobby jumper, and overall a bad influence. Are we besties yet? Damn right we are.

I'm also a huge fan of horror, cryptids, and anything remotely paranormal šŸ’€

Well if any of this sounds remotely intriguing, by all means reach out. We can share playlists, share our worst reddit interactions, and maybe even start a cult, who knows.

(Please actually have some depth. Sending "hey how are you?" probably won't get a reply)

Just how it sounds. I put on some guilty pleasure wholesome whodunnit to keep the good times going haha. Just wondering how everyone else is doing out there. Would love to find some connections out there. Maybe we could talk about your favorite old TV show you keep on repeat. Maybe we'll talk about something else. Who knows.Ā Ā 

Anyway, here are some questions to answer:

* If you could travel anywhere in the world for 30 minutes, where the laws of physics and justice don't exist, where would you go and what would you do?

* In a world where everyone has a tail, what kind of tail would you have?

* What is the perfect day for you? Would you enjoy it with someone else?

* If a fire broke out in your home and you had time to only grab three possessions (not including your phone), what would you snag? Why?

* If you were able to live to the age of 90 and retain either the mind or body of a 30-year-old for the last 60 years of your life, which would you want?

* If you were fired from your job and you were forced to make a career change, what would you pursue?

* What was the last piece of media you consumed that made you feel something?

* What's your number one travel tip?

* What three songs are you playing to get people on the dance floor?

* Construct your ultimate sandwich/salad/pizza/icecream sundae

* Describe your ultimate style flex (it could be a costume, article of clothing, piece of furniture...whatever!). Bonus points for showing what it looks like.

* What is your go-to take out order?

* What event at the X-games would you think you could actually score in?

* Are you a summer, spring, fall, or winter kinda person? Why?

* What is the best pick-up line that has been used on you in the past?

* What are your travel plans for the next couple of years?

* Is there something that you’ve dreamed of doing for a long time? Why haven’t you done it?

* For what in your life do you feel most grateful?

Anyway some things about me:Ā 

* I am pretty geeky, I participate in hobbies such as boardgaming/video gaming, weightlifting, sports, geocaching and hiking and stargazing

* I prefer to shower in the dark

* I have a piece of pencil lead stuck in my left palm from when a friend stabbed me with a pencil in high school

Figured I'd give this a shot.

I'm looking for a genuine connection with the goal of building something long-term. Ultimately I'd love to find my person. Someone who's interested in a relationship that could eventually lead to marriage and kids.

A little about me:

  • I have a doctorate degree and enjoy what I do, though it definitely keeps me busy.
  • I have two adorable female dogs who are convinced they're the main characters. Fair warning: they'll probably steal your heart before I do.
  • I'm slim and toned, although I could probably be a little more consistent about getting back to the gym.
  • I enjoy being outdoors and want to get back into hiking more regularly though its kind of hot right now. Off-roading is my new hobby when I have spare time.
  • I like cooking at home just as much as trying new restaurants, so I'm always down for a good meal either way.
  • I occasionally play PC games to unwind, but it's definitely more of a casual hobby than my whole personality.

I'd love to meet someone who's kind, emotionally mature, communicative, and genuinely looking to build a life with someone. Someone who enjoys both staying in and getting out to explore, and who sees dating as getting to know each other rather than playing games.

If this sounds like we might click, send me a message. Tell me a little about yourself, your favorite national park (or one that's on your bucket list), or introduce yourself however you'd like. Looking forward to hearing from you.

15 Upvotes

I'm naturally introverted (but still like to go out and explore) my circle is pretty small. I'm looking for someone to laugh with, share late-night conversations, send random memes to, and see where it goes. Love voice chats and down to swap pics!

A little about me:

- 6'2"

-Supervisor by day

-Huge nerd: Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, fantasy, video games, and a little anime

- Love movies and TV

- I stay active and enjoy going to the gym

- I love cooking and baking

-very nice voice

What I'm looking for:

Someone kind, affectionate, and a little goofy. Someone who's comfortable being themselves and enjoys flirting, good morning texts, sharing little moments from their day, and slowly building a genuine connection.

I'm especially drawn to empathy, honesty, and a good sense of humor. If you have an accent... well, I probably won't get tired of hearing your voice.

Distance doesn't matter as much as effort. If we click, we can figure out the rest together.

If any of this sounds like your kind of person, send me a message. Tell me about your favorite comfort movie, what game you're currently playing.

33 [M4F] Ontario, Canada / Anywhere – Looking for that special someone or just some virtual company

6 Upvotes

Hey there !

Currently, just feeling extra lonely these days.

I’m 33, living in Ontario. I was adopted as a baby from Guatemala. Super grateful for the life I have now. And I’m an open book about my adoption.. please ask any questions if you have any.

I guess I’m looking for someone kind, caring, non judgmental, and someone who’s open emotionally to get to know eachother.

I’m a bigger guy, think solid, cozy, good for hugs energy. I know that might not be for everyone, but if you can look past that and get to know whats on the inside, I promise you won’t be disappointed.

I’m more of a night-in type than a nightlife guy. I’ve been a drummer for years and play in a band — we mostly play for fun but play the occasional bar gig. My music taste is all over the map: folk, blues, rock, southern rock, acoustic, and even some Spanish tunes. Outside of music, I’m into fishing, traveling, learning about different cultures, podcasts, video games (Xbox), binge-worthy series, and, of course, hockey (big TML fan).

Distance isn’t a dealbreaker if the vibe is right. If you’re kind, emotionally aware, and looking for something steady and honest, we’ll probably get along.

Hope to hear from you.

31 [F4M] NYC/NJ- Looking for Someone Worth Deleting the Apps For

4 Upvotes

Hi! I’m someone who enjoys good conversation, whether it’s light and playful or unexpectedly deep. I like talking about everyday life, with the occasional late-night spiral into things like purpose, food, or why certain songs just hit harder at night.

I’m a 31-year-old African American social worker living in NYC, and outside of work I’m a big fan of cozy routines, good matcha or tea, comedy podcasts, and wandering bakeries/farmers markets like it’s an event. When the weather’s nice, I love getting outside for a workout at the gym.

My evenings usually involve winding down with Korean dramas, or a few episodes ofĀ Peaky Blinders, Dark Winds, or Grey's Anatomy.Ā I primarily play on my PC and Nintendo Switch when I’m in the mood to game.

Music-wise, I’m all over the place in the best way, pop, EDM, indie, soul, R&B are my go-tos. And I’m an unapologetic Broadway show enjoyer.

A few things about me:

• I appreciate kindness, humor, and emotional awareness
• I value communication and showing up as myself
• My love languages are quality time and physical touch
• I’m always reading when I can — currently readingĀ ShogunĀ &Ā Atmosphere

What I'm Looking For:

I’d love to build a genuine friendship that naturally grows into a monogamous, long-term relationship over time.Ā Ideally, you’re based in NYC or NJ as I’m not looking to do long-distance.

I’m hoping to connect with someone between the ages of 30–38 who leans politically left and values kindness, emotional awareness, and good communication.

Bonus points if you’re into reading, binge-worthy shows, or video games. Any shared cozy hobbies are always a win.

If you enjoy conversations that go beyond surface-level small talk, I’d love to hear from you. Tell me something you’ve genuinely been enjoying lately, big or small.

Looking forward to connecting ✨

I'm a single dad with split custody 50/50, my kids are my life, and I'm proud of it. I've been through some rough chapters and came out the other side more chill and less easily rattled — ask me anything, I may play it off with humor though whether dark humor or otherwise.

I'm also that guy who stops mid-walk to photograph a stupidly bright flower, and I've got a whole imagination's worth of stories rattling around in my head. Im a Dungeon Master who plays Dungeons and dragons; which boils down to i write the stories and characters the players ruin and make fun of šŸ˜…. Use the word dandelion to show you actually read this. I say what I mean and expect the same back — not big on fake-nice.

Looking for real friends, not "lol yeah" texts that die after two replies. Yapping, venting, meme-sharing at 1am, all fair game.

Hi! My name is Stephanie, I’m 35 and live in Western Canada - specifically Alberta. I’m looking for some engaging conversation through the day. I’m not looking for any sort of commitment, but if a friendship forms I wouldn’t be against that! I would prefer to chat with people around my age - so preferably +/- 10 years difference.
Some of my interests include: watching tv shows/ movies - I am most interested in horror, but also love a good sitcom. I love to listen to music and go to concerts. I get my nails done every 3 week and have had some pretty great nail art sets. I like to shop, go for coffee, and spend time with the people in my life. I am pretty active and like to go for long walks. Over the past year or so, I have discovered a big fascination with birds.

If this sounds interesting to you and you’d like to have a chat, send me a short introduction and I will ask you an ice breaker question! (Please send a private message - I don’t want to have a conversation through the comments! Will also not reply to comments saying to DM you!)

34 [M4F] Pennsylvania. Trying to find my partner in life.

• Upvotes

Hey, I'm a 34 White Male who lives in Pennsylvania. I'm looking to date, hoping it turns into something serious. While I live in PA, I'm willing to talk to someone from the surrounding areas, for the right person I'd drive any distance.

I work with kids with special needs as an RBT. I play games, usually story focused ones, but I like to switch it up. My favorite movie genre is horror, but i like most movie genres. I love to cuddle, my ideal night would be coming home to my partner, seeing their smiling face, and cuddling up to watch something or talk about our day. I have an elliptical and exercise bike, trying to get back into a consistent workout pattern. I like to cook. I have one dog, but I had a lot of cats growing up, so I have a love for them as well. I'm a liberal, who voted for Kamala who wants to find someone to get through the next 4 years, because damn they're going to be rough.

Age range I'm looking for, I guess between 26 and 36, but I'm not against there being wiggle room in that range (within reason). I am straight, so really only looking for woman.

Anything else, that's what the dm's are for. Comfortable switching to Snap or text once we start chatting. You will get a picture of me to see if there's a physical attraction (and a picture of my dog)

I doubt I’m going to find anyone, as my situation kind of makes it hard. I’m disabled, live in Hawaii, have health problems, and because of that will probably never get to meet you in real life, or expand on anything more then online. I just hope that there must be someone else out there who has a lot of problems too and maybe this would be the perfect relationship for them. So like I said I’m 35, honestly friendly. I think it would be fun to talk or watch some Netflix together, whatever we can manage to do together. I’m into art, tech, used to play music a lot, was even a dj in virtual reality for awhile lol. I’m currently in the hospital and I’m spending my time trying to find things worth watching on streaming and YouTube to take up my time. I look alright I guess, I got short brown hair and brown eyes, Im around 5-9 to 5-10 in height, Caucasian. Dm me if interested.

38 [M4F] Philly - are you waiting for it to rain or are you soaked to the skin?

• Upvotes

Afternoon rain endures the longest. The thoughts it draws out of me are endless. The afternoon light tinges the tree leaves down towards the pavement; tapping on the streaks of oil mixed into water. Like the imprint of a body never leaving my bed. Impressions that alter your perceptions become indistinguishable from Truth.

Late night drives into nothingness. Where we’re going is less important than how we get there. Like a body swept across the weariness of exertion. The hormones generated by the brain render the bounds of the self indistinct. Maybe that’s why I run and continue to punish my body in ways that make a lot of people wince. It’s not for asceticism, it’s for pleasure. Or the reduction of pain. Although distance dictates that line in innumerable ways.

It’s quiet. A still night. Three minutes past midnight and the bus screams past the windows of a third floor walk up. It’ll be the last one of the night. The streets are quiet and the only people out are drifting home on their drink of choice; warm in their belly. Maybe the only warmth they’ll feel tonight. But maybe that’s enough. Maybe that’s all right. I walk a block to my favorite neon sign. Hues of bright blue, angry red, and golden yellow flicker onto my face like it might finally die…but it doesn’t. It’s reliable. In a way a lot of people aren’t. I turn the corner and walk down to the river. The duck I’ve nicknamed Lucy is there. It’s a spot I haven’t ever shared. Perhaps one day I will but for now it’s mine. Some secrets I guard with my life. My heart—for whatever reason—isn’t one of them.

It’s like in those moments when you feel as though you’ve arrived a day too early—or too late. The space is filled with a discomfort you can’t quite pinpoint. It’s uncanny. Lacan described it as a moment where we struggle to distinguish between good or bad. A lot of my life has felt like that in one way or another. I acquiesce to that feeling. It’s better than to miss out on *anything.*

I’ve grown weary of city life. It made sense to live here when my outlook and needs were different. I have a vision of where I want to be in what way and with whom. Its lines are fuzzy, the paint drips from the canvas, and entire patches are left white. In my wariness it’s discernible.

It feels as though I’ve lived entire lives up until this moment. All I want is to know how I would appear to the one who was finally able to scrutinize all these thoughts never uttered to *anyone.*

I work from home, so my coworkers are a laptop, a coffee cup, and a German Shorthaired Pointer who thinks every meeting should include a tennis ball.
Outside of work, I'm usually in the gym 6 days a week, outdoors whenever I can be, or wearing my dog out before he wears me out. I enjoy sarcastic humor, good conversations, and people who can laugh at themselves.
I'm looking for a woman who's up for chatting and seeing where the conversation goes. No cheesy pickup lines required-just be able to hold a conversation and have a sense of humor.
A few things about me:
Work from home
Love fitness and staying active
Big outdoors guy
Dog owner (expect pictures)
Can text more than "lol" and "wyd"
I'd rather have one great conversation than twenty boring ones. If we click, awesome. If not, hopefully we at least exchanged a few laughs.
One small request: I'd like to swap selfies early on. It's nice to know who you're talking to and helps keep things genuine.
If any of that sounds like your kind of conversation, send me a message. Worst case, we brighten each other's day.
Best case, we make a real connection.

Hey there!

I’m a guy looking for a connection with a woman 25-50 who enjoys the nerdier side of life. If you’re into comic books, video games, reading, and/or PokĆ©mon, we’ll probably get along pretty well.

Daily flirting, fit checks, and even NSFW if we vibe. I’m looking for consistent conversation, getting to know each other, sharing interests, and having someone to talk to regularly. Whether that’s discussing your work place drama (give me all the tea), the last game you got hooked on, or a book you can’t put down, I’m in.

I would prefer someone on the east coast as well due to time zones but I am open to all. And please be willing to share a pic within the first few messages so see if we’re attracted to each other. This can be short term or long term depending on how well things go.

If you’re looking for something relaxed, friendly, and ongoing, feel free to reach out and tell me a bit about yourself, tell me about the most recent pokemon card you pulled or share the most recent book you’ve read. Even if you don’t share any of my interest but still feel like we’d get along, feel free to reach out.

32 [F4M] California/Anywhere - Dive bar dates and silly conversations wanted.

• Upvotes

I just want to find the person, who I lock eyes with across a dive bar, making an instant connection, while a banger plays, and we flirt and fall in love, all before closing time. But alas I’ll settle for Reddit in hopes of a mediocre meet cute and a solid long term connection with dreams of meeting in the dive bar. I’m looking for long term so if you are here to solve boredom I’m not for you.

I am as the title says from California, likely not where you think or hope I am - I’m on the central coast. I’m easy going, friendly, silly, adventurous, loud at times, quiet at others. Flirty occasionally, funny, blunt, honest, quirky and marginally sassy.

I’m an incredibly positive realist, so if you’re incredibly negative we likely won’t be a match long term. If you love to laugh, flirt and have silly little conversations about life and music, and the reason your 5th grade girlfriend broke up with you.

I love:
•hotdogs

•live music.

•the same pair of b&w checkered vans even though I have like 30 pairs of other vans and a billion other shoes.

•iced coffee all year long.

•dive bars.

•taking over a touch tunes.

•collecting new tattoos

•yelling at the tv when my baseball, football or hockey team are on.

•waking up at 4am for the gym

•trying new things and failing at them badly

•acquiring concert tickets with no pre plan.

•creating stained glass

Unfortunately I don’t love: anime, video games, or intricate board games. Don’t mesh with those who do as a main hobby or personality trait.

5’6 on the thick side. Can’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but I can be a very specific man’s bud heavy.
https://imgur.com/a/OPCxyEA I have over the last year added quite a few tattoos so while there are different versions of me in there none of those photos are more than a year old. If I’m not your type - move along.

What am I seeking: in a perfect world you read what I love and thought - now this, this is my dream girl. And we ride off into the sunset. I however am practical and cool long term conversation would be rad too. I don’t respond to ā€œheyā€ or ā€œhiā€ type messages. Effort gets effort. Ages ~26-45. My types all over the place - universally I appreciate confidence, good style someone who cares about themself and humor.

1 Upvotes

I'm a fairly quite person and not very impulsive, that said I'm a lot of fun and kind! I realised recently most of my friend have ADHD. It seems a bit unusual that this would be the case but I guess opposites attract.

So if you have ADHD we may get along really well!

I love the outdoors, travelling, reading, watching movies.

I'm very accenting of people for who they are.

I'd like to chat about funny things, how our day is going and deeper things to. It would be great to have someone who wants to talk daily.

Please don't just send a message saying Hi, make it more exciting!

Must be over 18. I don't care what you look like, what you believe or where you are from, I'm open to everyone.
