(21F) Looking for forever! [F4M] #Online first

Hey, folks!

I have not dated seriously in a while. This week is the first time I've seriously looked in a long time.

I would like to preface by saying I am autistic. (Diagnosed and errything, chat) It just makes me special (Needs)

So.. some things about me.

I am currently working and schooling full time. I am currently working as an EC teacher assistant in an elementary school (my people 😌😌😌)

I have already finished two degrees (Technically...) and am currently pursuing a third. I started at community college and began my first year as a university student. The degree I am currently pursuing is a career and technical education: Family and consumer sciences degree.

My end goal would probably be working in a high school teaching culinary or apparel.

I also enjoy crafting. Any kind of art related thing I am heavily into. I am currently into crochet, and I make tapestries. I've done macrame, painting, drawing, etc. Having a creative partner is incredibly important to me. Share your passion with me. 🐣

I enjoy gaming as well. My current jam is cozy games. Games about design and organizing (I reach a genuine flow state 🙏🙏🤣) I also enjoy friend slop games like PEAK

I am going to be honest. I am clingy. I am needy. It's just how I am. If you don't want a girl that wants to talk to you all the time, call you during bed, call you on the way to work, etc. Then you don't want me, babe. I want to be around you. And I am not sorry 🤪

I am also pretty unserious. I try to keep things light and airy, and I joke around a lot. (I know when to be serious), but I do tend to joke around a lot.

ALSO! It pisses me off when people abbreviate their words. It genuinely gives me the ick so fast. There are some things that don't bother me. Things like 'lol' 'lmao' etc' are perfectly fine. I am more talking about the 'U' 'UR' 'BRB' things of that nature. Also! Please. Please. Please. I am begging.. correct punctuation and capitalization. Pleaseeee. Admittedly, I slip up sometimes. But I am very conscious about it.

I hope to hear from you!

P.S. If you made it this far! Include the word blueberry in your introduction! (And it better be creative! I'm not just looking for the word! BE CREATIVE)

28 [M4F] Sweden/Anywhere | Oddball looking for connection

Hi, I'm 28 and I've decided to give dating a shot after being single for over four years. I'm looking for someone who thinks dating an oddball is a good idea, and to throw in an occasional "are you sure?" to steer me away from at times (often) questionable ideas. I've got brown hair, blue eyes and an average build of about 185 cm.

My life is so stable right now it's almost too boring. I'm employed full-time, pretending to be knowledgeable about IT while in reality it's just emails, restarting stuff and, in my opinion, giving me too much responsibility.

I live in an apartment with a menace of a tuxedo cat, she knows how to untie knots and I'm convinced she's actually an alien in disguise.

To make my life harder, I'm looking for a house to buy in the future, just so I can do what I'd actually like and because I can't do nothing all day.

Apparently I'm kind of an old soul too, since I enjoy oatmeal and wear these cheesy 80's sweaters during winter (only at home though!). I also love to walk and I've successfully bullied myself into working out multiple times a week.

I'm looking for someone who:

Won't question why my old car is slowly becoming more pink

Likes to banter, I'm convinced colour written WITH the u is the correct spelling

Won't mind me being confused like Biden half the time and being stuck somewhere in mid 2010s pop culture-wise

Knows that mental break days are important too. I really like to just sit and home and not do anything sometimes. I'm an introvert after all, but I always like company of someone I like.

What you're getting:

I'm loyal, and I really like giving hugs. Headpats included.

I successfully repair most of the stuff I break.

I speak three languages and yet half of the time I'm looking up words since I keep forgetting them

Questions like "Hey have you been to Norway?" and doing a 6h drive there the next morning.

I will nag for you to wear a hat when it's cold.

A source of brilliant ideas, like building a washing machine theoretically capable of spinning at 100k rpm (I'm sure that'd generate a black hole or something)

Apart from the things above, I'm not religious and I'm usually a bit reserved at first. I love to listen to various music, chatting about all kinds of things, tinkering, and I'm actually responsible, including having a bedtime. I do not play games that much, I prefer doing something outside or simply hanging out.

I'm not looking for anything casual, I'm the kind of person that prefers to get to know someone first.

If you're interested, here's a picture of me: https://imgur.com/a/MqdIeXH.

Thank you for reading all of this<3

32 [M4F] US East Coast - Being a hopeless romantic in 2026 makes me feel like an alien

Hello fellow Reddit singles! After being “off the market” for over 10 years I have reentered the dating world…. and good lord was I unprepared. I didn’t really see myself as a hopeless romantic until I started going on dates. From my experience, it seems a lot of people are more interested in a contractual relationship rather than just forming a deep bond and connection with the other person. It has gotten to the point where I feel crazy or like an alien lol. So I figured I’d reach out to the crazy world of Reddit to see if I could find any more “aliens” like me lol

Anyways! Here is a little about me: I’m a pretty big nerd. I enjoy playing video games, playing D&D, watching anime, Star Wars, Harry Potter, LoTR and other various nerd topics. I also love music, I play guitar and have been for most of my life. I like a lot of music but pop punk, metal and rock hold s special place in my heart.

I’m also pretty physically active. I lift, run and train Brazilian Jujitsu. I also love being outside hiking, camping, kayaking and any other outdoor adventure I can muster up.

Personally wise I’m an ambivert. That basically means I’m an extroverted introvert if that makes sense. I enjoy being social mostly with small groups but I also really like my me time. Helps me recharge and feel ready for the next day.

Lastly I’ll put it out there that I work in Law Enforcement since I know that can be a deal breaker for some.

If you resonated with anything I said, please reach out with a DM. Hope you have a relaxing Sunday :)

30 [F4M] #PHILIPPINES / Match my nerdiness

I've always been attracted to nerdy guys. I'm a nerdy girl myself. I love reading books, watching historical docus and films and science too. I am very good in my export management work too, and other goals and hobbies.

My love language is talking about the books we read, and just listening to topics you can talk non-stop about. Aside from that, physically I'm 150 cm (short girly), with white complexion. I look young for my age. I work-out every other day almost consistently. I hope I can find my match here. DM if interested. We can exchange pics! Open for just talking also, if not for relationship. Any time zone is okay, work's flexible. See u!

24 [F4M] #USA - Bonding with lovely lurkers!

Hii!! To blow through the basics, I’m Kate, a petite wasian lady with a soft voice and funny glasses 🤓. Ass men need not apply, but you could call me top-heavy. I have an unopened bottle of sunscreen in my little pickup that I should have used ten times over by now. I’d rather sit with you under a tree than at a bar. A dream of mine is to start a family one day, if I can find the right man to share that life with. I keep a good handle on all my responsibilities and financial shit…and I guess I cuss a lot for a “lady.”

As a partner, I’m affectionate, reliable, supportive, and drama-averse. The more of those we have in common, the better we’ll get along.

Anyway, with that done, it’s time to get real. Nobody likes to lay out their looks and personality over and over again like a car trying to sell itself. It’s boring to try and hit all the items on a list of things that make you an endearing option, but it’s basically necessary in this environment.

Don’t get me wrong, I do want to share all the interesting little details, determine physical attraction, suss out any dealbreakers, act funny, and get flirty! But I’m chiefly interested in your authenticity and character, and it takes time to get a feel for those. I’m looking for men who are willing to be themselves and let time paint the picture as we become closer 🤗❤️

If you feel like forming an honest, personal bond with someone would be more natural to you than playing the speed dating game, you are the kind of man I want to meet. Please consider me an open book if you’d like to introduce yourself, and feel free to tell me why you decided to do so! Let’s see how our connection feels as we get to know each other.

Here are some final road signs for anyone interested in reaching out:

- I love and prefer older men! ❤️

- I’m aiming for devoted long-term relationship with someone who will want me as his confidante, lover, friend, and life partner. If we find that that’s not in the cards, let’s just be friends or part ways.

- I will get bored if the conversation devolves into mostly sexual talk before we’ve had time to bond. Yes, I have a dirty mind, and I won’t ever condemn you for yours. But intimacy of any kind is more enjoyable once we share some trust and deeper understanding, and having impersonal fun would cheapen the connection we’re trying to nurture.

25 [F4M] #USA

Im Nat! 😊 I’m 25, Mexican-American and from Texas. I’m hoping to meet someone where talking to each other slowly becomes part of the everyday routine—the kind where you feel comfortable talking about anything :)
I’m open to long distance anywhere in the U.S., and I’d ideally like to meet someone around 23–26.
I’m very much a stay-at-home-and-make-my-own-fun kind of person. I enjoy watching documentaries about crime cases. At the moment I am really interested in the Murdaugh case since it’s still ongoing to this day! I also been working on eating more home cooked meals rather than eating out 😋 My go to meal prep at the moment is chicken with a side of melon. I’d love to hear your suggestions as long as there’s no tomatoes!

When I’m not in the kitchen, you’ll probably find me:

Watching 80’s movies (The Labyrinth is my favorite one at the moment because of the ballroom scene)

Looking for something new to learn about (Being an educator comes with its perks)

I’m 5'7", plus-size, and working toward becoming a healthier and happier version of myself. I really value someone who also believes in growth—not being perfect, but actually wanting to improve, learn, and build a good life.
Personality-wise, I can be a little reserved at first, but once I’m comfortable with you, good luck getting me to shut up. 😭 I love someone who can keep a conversation going, genuinely wants to know me.

I’m not looking for something casual or rushing into a relationship! I’d much rather start with a friendship, get to know each other, and see whether something real naturally grows from there.
The qualities that stand out to me most are:
♡ Established careers
♡ Honesty
♡ Good communication (I don’t like dry convos it feels like pulling teeth)
♡ Consistency
♡ Being family-oriented

A few things that might help you decide if we'd get along:
• I’m Catholic
• I don’t smoke or drink
• I’m a homebody
• I don’t like Anime (I don’t watch it nor do I find it interesting)
• Fall is my favorite season

And please, actually read the post before messaging me 😭 I’d love to start our conversation fresh rather than repeating myself.

So, let's make the first message fun:
Tell me about something that you learned the hard way
