35 [F4M] Philippines

I’m from the Philippines, and just to get that out of the way... if that’s smthn you look down on or have weird feelings about, totally okay to skip me. I promise I won’t take it personally. We can save each other the awkwardness.

I’ve been on hibernation mode for the past few days, but life’s too short not to try things twice… just not short enough for me to subscribe to a dating app. Lol. So here I am again, putting myself out there. Please be gentle.

I read a lot... like, 'I’m not ignoring you, I’m just telling myself one more chapter' a lot. I’m also very much a beach person. When life gets too loud, give me the ocean and I’ll probably be okay again.

I’ve hiked the 4th highest peak in the Philippines, which sounded very romantic and adventurous in theory. In reality, my legs were tryna remind me that I am not 22 anymore.

I’m single, never married, live alone and casually tryna grow into the rich, cool aunt version of myself. Someone has to keep the family entertained and financially irresponsible.

If you’re 35+, not racist, emotionally normal-ish and mture-ish and can hold an actual conversation without making distance or culture weird, and also looking for a dink partner, feel free to say hi.

I’m around for the next few days, mostly just tryna breathe, laugh a little, and be a person again (coz work made me sick).

Maybe I’ll meet someone interesting along the way (:

▲ 1 r/LDR

Came back, but not really

Looking for some outside perspective on my LDR situation.

My boyfriend and I were together long distance for quite a while. A few months ago, he suddenly ghosted me. No proper explanation, no closure. I was devastated, but eventually started trying to accept it and move on.

Then, just when I was finally getting to a point where I was healing, he came back. He even admitted that maybe it was wrong of him to come back. The thing is, now that he's back, he feels distant and cold. He still talks to me, but it's nowhere near how things used to be, and I often feel like I'm the only one trying to reconnect.

I'm struggling because part of me is happy he's back, but another part of me wonders if I'm just holding onto the relationship that we used to have rather than the reality of what it is now.

Has anyone been through something similar? If someone ghosts you, comes back, but remains emotionally distant, what would you make of that? Would you keep trying to rebuild things or take it as a sign to let go?

Just looking for honest opinions.

35 [F4M]

Weekend nights have been weirdly boring, so here I am tryna be brave and put myself out there again

Not my first rodeo with online connections, but I’m just looking for a nice, flowy conversation with someone who can actually hold one. Preferably Aussie men since the time difference isn’t tryna ruin my sleep schedule and ideally around 37 to 42-ish years old (I think I just naturally vibe better with that age range)

I’m a Filipina in the Philippines with a corporate job, but once work’s done, I’m basically free (and occasionally spiraling into a tiny existential crisis lol). No kids, never married, not a single mom and currently tryna lean into my lover girl era instead of overthinking everything.

A bit about me is I like freediving (still very much a hold breath and hope sitch), I’ve recently started pickleball (def not pro, I mostly just enjoy pretending Ik what I’m doing), I love travelling and I’m a huge foodie. I’m morena, not your typical petite Filipina and very much existing in my own lane.

If you message me, please skip the dry hi/hello😭

Tell me smthn abt yourself, a random thought, or what your weekend looks like. Talk soon!

It’s one of those unexpectedly quiet Saturday nights. I would normally just enjoy my own little bubble but tonight the silence feels a bit louder than usual, so it might be nice to have a voice or a mind to bounce off of.

I’m a Filipina with a sarcastic streak, a soft side I pretend doesn’t exist, and a habit of staying up too late when the conversation hits the right rhythm. I’m not here hunting for a soulmate or a situationship.

If you’re up for an easy, random, maybe slightly chaotic exchange that can go from a simple how’s your night to your weirdest unpopular opinion, then hi.

Surprise me. Or let me surprise you.

Edited: PS. If your grand opening is just hi, please try again with more effort and fewer yawns.
