Hi everyone,

I've decided to give Reddit a genuine shot at something I've been looking for for a while — meeting someone naturally, getting to know each other, and seeing if it can eventually lead to marriage.

I'm 31M, originally from Hyderabad, and currently spend time between cities because of work.

A little about me

I work in the luxury fashion and retail industry. I run my own retail consulting firm, Fashion Signature, where I work with designer brands and multi-designer retailers on business strategy, merchandising, expansion and growth.

Alongside that, I work as a CXO for an international luxury fashion company, handling business growth and operations across international markets.

I'm ambitious and enjoy building businesses, but I don't want my career to become my entire personality. I'm looking for someone with whom I can build a life outside work as well.

Outside work, I enjoy:

• ✈️ Travelling and discovering new places
• 🍽️ Exploring good cafés and restaurants
• 🚗 Long drives and spontaneous plans
• 🏋️ Staying active
• 🎬 Movies, random conversations and terrible humour
• 🌍 Meeting people from different backgrounds and learning about different cultures

I'm financially independent, career-oriented and fairly settled in life.

What I'm looking for

I'm not interested in casual dating or an endless talking stage.

I'd like to date with marriage as the eventual goal, but I'm not looking to interview someone for the position of “wife” over two WhatsApp calls either. 😂

I'd rather:

Meet → talk → spend time together → build friendship → understand compatibility → decide together where it goes.

I'm looking for someone who is:

• Emotionally mature and kind
• Independent and comfortable having her own career/interests
• Honest and straightforward
• Good at communicating rather than disappearing when things get difficult
• Family-oriented but not controlled by family expectations
• Curious about life and willing to experience new things
• Looking for a genuine long-term relationship

I'm particularly attracted to someone who has her own personality, opinions, ambitions and interests. I don't expect us to agree on everything. In fact, I'd rather be with someone who can challenge my thinking respectfully.

Location

I'm originally from Hyderabad and currently spend significant time in Chennai and other cities for work. I travel frequently, including internationally.

So I'm open to meeting someone from another city if we're both willing to make the effort. I'm not looking for a purely long-distance online relationship, though — I'd prefer meeting in person fairly early and seeing whether there's actually a connection.

A little honesty

I'm not perfect. Work can get intense, I travel a lot, and sometimes I get overly focused on whatever I'm building.

But I know what I want at this stage of my life: a meaningful partnership, a peaceful home, shared experiences, and someone I genuinely enjoy coming back to.

I'm also not expecting instant chemistry from one Reddit message. Sometimes a good connection starts with a completely ordinary conversation.

If this resonates with you, send me a DM with a little about yourself — age, city, what you do, what you're looking for and something you're currently interested/obsessed with.

Please don't just send “Hi”. 😄 Give me something to work with.

And if we get along, I'm happy to exchange Instagram/LinkedIn and eventually meet for coffee.

Maybe Reddit can actually deliver something better than another dating-app conversation. Let's find out. 😄

Hi everyone!

Trying my luck here because I believe the best connections sometimes happen in the most unexpected places.

I’m 31M, originally from Hyderabad, working in the luxury fashion and retail industry. I run a retail consulting firm that helps fashion brands and multi-designer stores grow, and I also work as a CXO for an international luxury retail company. My work takes me across India and overseas, which means I get to travel often, meet interesting people, and learn something new every week.

A little about me:

• Financially independent and ambitious, but I don’t define my life only by work.
• Close to my family and value honesty, respect, and good communication.
• I enjoy travelling, trying new restaurants, road trips, business conversations, and occasionally doing absolutely nothing on a lazy Sunday.
• I don’t smoke and drink occasionally in social settings.
• I’m equally comfortable discussing business strategy, planning my next holiday, or debating where to find the best biryani.

One important thing:

I’m childfree by choice.

This isn’t a temporary decision or something I’m “unsure” about—it’s a well-thought-out life choice. I’m looking for someone who genuinely shares the same outlook, not someone hoping I’ll change my mind later (or vice versa).

For me, a fulfilling life is about building a strong partnership, travelling the world, growing together, pursuing our passions, and having the freedom to design our own future.

Who I’m hoping to meet:

• Around 26–34 years old.
• Emotionally mature and communicates openly.
• Independent and passionate about what she does.
• Family-oriented while respecting each other’s individuality.
• Childfree by choice.
• Looking for a serious relationship that can naturally lead to marriage.

I don’t have unrealistic expectations about finding “the perfect person.” I’m simply looking for someone who is kind, emotionally available, and willing to build something meaningful together.

If this resonates with you, feel free to send me a DM. Happy to exchange LinkedIn or Instagram once we’ve had a conversation.

If nothing else, maybe I’ll get a few good restaurant recommendations out of Reddit. 😄
