Hi! I'm a 26-year-old guy from Mumbai, India.

I've always imagined myself happiest in a relationship where my partner is the ambitious one chasing big goals while I get to be her biggest supporter. If she has a demanding career, I'd genuinely love being the person who makes coming home feel peaceful.

Cooking dinner after a long day, making sure she eats, remembering the little things, keeping our home cozy, being the first person cheering after a promotion, all these sounds incredibly fulfilling to me.

I'm not looking for someone to take care of me financially. If she happened to be the primary earner, I'd want to contribute just as much in every other way. To me, a relationship isn't about splitting everything 50/50—it's about both people giving 100% in different ways.

Outside of that, I'm a software developer, who's secretly just hoping to be the little spoon, and someone who melts over forehead kisses and random hugs.

If you're an ambitious woman who wants someone genuinely proud of your success instead of intimidated by it, I'd love to get to know you.

How realistic is it to be the little spoon as a 5'6 Indian guy? 😭

I just want a girlfriend who's stronger than me, cuddles me, and occasionally steals me like I weigh nothing.

Am I asking for too much?

I kinda wish role reversal was just seen as... another normal relationship dynamic.

Like I don't want a woman to take the lead because it's some kink or power thing. I just genuinely find women who are naturally confident, protective and a little more assertive really attractive. And I wish I could just be a softer, more affectionate guy without people acting like that somehow makes me "less of a man."

It's weird because in my head it feels so normal. A relationship where we both love each other equally, we both take care of each other, but we don't have to force ourselves into traditional gender roles just because that's what people expect.

Maybe I just live in the wrong place, idk.

Genuine question because at this point I'm starting to wonder if they're all hiding from me lol

I've come across some masc women online, but they're usually from the US, Europe, or somewhere else too far 😭

Meanwhile I'm sitting here in India and I don't think I've ever met a straight masc woman irl. Not one 😞

So now I'm curious...

Are y'all actually out there or have I just somehow never run into any of you?

​

I feel like we talk a lot about what RR men enjoy.

Like being pursued, being protected, being the one getting picked up, carried, complimented etc..

But it got me wondering... do RR women actually enjoy those things from your side too?

Like does it genuinely make you happy to be the protective one? The stronger one? To see a guy get flustered because of something you said or did?

I know why a lot of us RR guys are into those dynamics, but I've always been curious what the appeal is from the other side.

​

Hey!

I'm a 27 year old guy from India. I'm a software developer, anime enjoyer, and probably way softer than people expect when they first meet me 😭

I'm masculine looking on the outside, but personality-wise I've always been drawn to RR dynamics. I love the idea of being cherished, pursued, feeling safe with someone, and having a relationship where we can both be ourselves without worrying about who is supposed to play what role.

As for what I'm looking for, I'd strongly prefer a Muslim woman since faith and long-term compatibility are important to me. India would be ideal because, well... distance sucks 😅 but I'm open to other countries too if we're a good match.

Physically, I've always had a thing for women who are strong, athletic, muscular, or just generally give off that protective energy. Bonus points if you can make me blush without even trying.

Long term, I'm looking for something serious. I'd like marriage and kids someday, so I'm not really interested in casual flings.

If any of this sounds like your vibe, feel free to send me a message and tell me a bit about yourself 😊

Anyone else just... tired?

Not in a hopeless way or anything.

Just feels like I've reached a point where I'm not really actively looking anymore. I've met some genuinely amazing people over the years, but for one reason or another it just never worked out.

And now instead of feeling lonely, I mostly just feel... picky? 😭

Like i think I know what I want and what wouldn't work long term, and I'm not really interested in forcing something just because there's a connection.

Maybe that's a good thing. Maybe I'm just getting old lol.

Anyone else in the same boat?
