Access to Higher Education Diploma Results

Hi Everyone 👋

For anyone who’s still waiting for their Access to Higher Education Diploma results, I thought I’d share that mine have now arrived. Hopefully that’s a good sign that yours will be on the way soon too.

My awarding body was SEG, and the results were sent by post. I received my certificate along with a statement showing results for each unit - two Study Skills units aren’t listed: Preparing for Success, and Portfolio Building. I checked each unit against the grades my Tutors had originally given me, and none of them had changed during the certification process.

I’d been told by my college at the beginning of June that I’d receive my results by email no later than July 3rd, so when that date came and went I started getting a bit anxious and have been checking my inbox several times each day.

It’s a huge relief to finally have them, and more than anything, they feel like the last piece of the jigsaw needed so I can move in to the next chapter of my life.

If you’re still waiting, hopefully you won’t have much longer to go - I know how nerve racking it is!

Wishing everyone the very best with their results!

Hi Everyone.

I’ve recently taken on a subreddit that gives some “wow” moments, and would like more people to see how fascinating nature can be.

In the iconic words of Dr. lan Malcolm, "Life, uh... finds a way."

🌿 This is a community dedicated to celebrating nature's remarkable resilience against all odds.

🌱 Whether it's nature reclaiming abandoned places, plants breaking through concrete, wildlife thriving in the most unexpected environments, or any other extraordinary example of life overcoming seemingly impossible circumstances, it belongs here.

📸 Share fascinating examples of nature proving that, somehow, life always finds a way 🐾 🌍

A Little Reminder For Anyone Who Needs It Today… ❤️

Hello you wonderful people! 👋

I just wanted to share a little reminder for anyone who needs it today… 🫶

Hold on.

You will find your person.

The one who understands you, respects you, values you, considers your feelings, and makes you feel less alone.

Sometimes it takes time, but the right person is always worth waiting for.

While love is finding its way to you, keep becoming the best version of yourself, and remember that your love story is still being written ✍️

Somewhere out there, your person is waiting to meet you too 👀

Good luck with finding your man, and I hope that 2026 brings you the romance and love that you’re searching for ❤️👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽

36 | Nottingham, United Kingdom | Seeking Long-term Relationship

🙋‍♂️

British guy here 🇬🇧

Genuine. Good morals and values.

Appreciate the simpler life, and value experiences and making memories more than possessions 🧘🏼‍♂️

• Gym 🏋️‍♂️
• Travel 🌎
• Adventure 🗺
• Outdoors 🏔
• Visiting new places ✈️🚢🚉
• Socialising with friends 🧍‍♂️🥂🧍🏽‍♀️🍽🧍🏻
• Trying new activities 🤺🧗‍♂️🚁
• Cinema 🎟 🎞
• Wolf Pack 🐕🐕🐈

Huge travel fan with many places that I’d like to visit or return to; Salem, San Francisco, Chicago, New York, New Zealand, Australia, Cambodia, Japan, Machu Picchu, Egypt, Italy, Switzerland...

Trying something new rather then the dating apps which seem to be full of match collectors, those looking to increase their social media following, or people who can’t hold a conversation 🥱😴

Would relocate if the connection is there. I always think that only focusing local could cause us to miss out on our perfect person.

Let’s drive Route 66 🚘

Just a polite note - I wouldn’t have thought that I’d need to point this out in 2026, but I won’t reply to those who won’t share a picture 📸

You can see who you’re choosing to communicate with, so surely I should be able to do the same. That’s fair, right?
(I understand that a chat request will need to be accepted to allow the picture to be sent)

Also, in your initial message, please introduce yourself and share some information about who you are instead of just saying “hey”.

Let’s all be kind to each other ✌️

I have a good life with my own home, pets, a good job, and I’m studying to change career direction. But I’d like to find someone who I connect with so we can build an even better life together.

Would relocate if the connection is there. I always think that only focusing local could lead to us missing out on our perfect person.

Hello you wonderful people! 👋

As r/gaydating is an international community, I thought it would be nice to get a better idea of where in the world our members are based 🌍

We have people here from different countries, cities, cultures, and backgrounds, all looking for genuine connections, dating, romance, and love.

So, just for fun, where in the world do you currently live?

Please select the option that best applies to you in the poll and come back to check the results in seven days! 👀

Unfortunately Reddit only allows six options for the poll, but if you choose “Other / Somewhere else” please add it to the comments below… 👇

This is just a friendly community poll to help us see how international r/gaydating really is, and maybe even show members that there are others based closer to them than they realised.

Please remember to keep things kind, respectful, 100% clean, SFW, and in line with the rules of r/gaydating.

Good luck with finding your man ❤️👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽

Hello you wonderful people! 👋

I'd like to make you aware of an important update that has been introduced to r/gaydating following community feedback.

To help make posts clearer, easier to browse, and more inclusive for the international community that we are, we are introducing a standardised post title format.

Going forward, the title of all posts must be written as:

Age | Location (city, country) | Short description

For example:

36 | London, United Kingdom | Looking for a genuine connection

28 | New York City, United States of America | Looking for a serious relationship

31 | Toronto, Canada | Hoping to meet someone kind

47 | Sydney, Australia | Open to long-distance dating

The separator between each section is this symbol: | (usually Shift + \ on a keyboard)

You can copy and paste it from here if needed.

  • You will notice that the location in these examples includes the person’s city and country, not just a continent or vague area. Your location must be the place where you currently reside, not where you were born or where you are originally from.
  • Please do not use vague locations such as “online”, “anywhere”, or “worldwide”, as these are not locations where someone resides.
  • Let’s all remember that we are an international group here. With that in mind, please include the full name of the city and country that you reside in, not an abbreviation, as not everyone will understand what shortened locations mean.
  • A nationality is also not a location - you may not currently live in the place that you were born, and community members need to know where you currently are.
  • Flag emojis are not acceptable as a location either, as not everyone will recognise them.

This change is intended to make r/gaydating clearer, fairer, and easier for everyone to use. It will also help members find posts that are relevant to them, as they can use the search function to look for people in specific locations that are of interest to them.

This level of clarity will hopefully lead to more meaningful connections, as members can quickly understand whether someone is realistically close enough or based somewhere that fits what they are looking for.

Posts that do not follow the required title format will be removed by Reddit's AutoModerator and will need to be resubmitted correctly.

Thank you for understanding, and good luck with finding your man ❤️👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽

Hello you wonderful people! 👋

Welcome to this week’s general chat thread 💬

As r/gaydating is solely for single guys to share personal dating posts, we thought it would be a nice addition to create an individual weekly space where members can say hello, share their weekend, get to know the community, and have meaningful conversations.

To help get the conversation started, feel free to share:

• Where in the world you’re from 🌍

• How your weekend is going

• What you’re looking forward to next week 👀

• A dating green flag you appreciate

• Or anything positive you’d like to share ✨

Please remember to always keep things kind, respectful, 100% clean, SFW, and in line with the rules of r/gaydating.

Any comments in this chat that should actually be a personal dating post will be removed and you will be advised to create a post instead. This will give your personal post the best chance of being seen, rather than it being lost within this discussion.

Good luck with finding your man, and I hope that 2026 brings you the romance and love that you’re searching for ❤️👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽
