Looking for someone who is real to me and no one else. Someone who will always be there when we need each other and remain our little secret. Someone who sees me when no one else does. Who exist only in our own little world and when we're together, nothing else matters. Someone whose life might not be as happy as it seems and our companionship is the only escape we have. Someone who enjoys deep and open one on one conversation with someone who gets them. Someone who is normal enough to understand but crazy enough to reply.

Let’s talk about Jesus. No, not that Jesus. I’m talking about Levon’s kid.

Levon, as you know, is a successful cartoon balloon salesman in a small British town. An unusual business, but a thriving one. Levon, born a pauper to a pawn, asked very little of his family. So precious little. Probably just loyalty from his kids and a little attention from his wife.

Jesus, though. Jesus is a problem. Despite all Levon does for him, despite expectations that don’t rise above blowing up balloons all day, dangling his feet off a porch swing, watching those balloons (Levon’s profit, by the way) lazily fly away? Despite that candy-ass existence Levon allows him to enjoy?

Jesus apparently wants to go to Venus. Well, shit son. That’s just great. Given comforts only known to the children of prominent cartoon balloon salesmen, and he wants to fly off to Venus?

Ungrateful. Precocious. Ill-mannered and spiteful. Jesus, Jesus.

Obviously I’ve given Levon’s plight some thought. As a dad, prone to spoiling children and caving to their every whim, I empathize.

It’s raining here. I’m in the first of many meetings. We are approximately 9 hours from beer 30.

Have you loved being with your friends so much you've wanted to get closer to them but been afraid of how they'll react, and you won't risk losing them? Wouldn't it be better to start a friendship knowing you both can be as a close and honest as you want, no fear, no stress, just hope and anticipation? If you agree then I know exactly how you feel.

This is a heartfelt offer to any women out there who want to spend time in Edinburgh with an intelligent, charismatic, educated, gentleman. I'm in in touch with my feminine side, artistic, into crafts, very chatty, so you'll feel safe and comfortable. I'm tall, slim, and well dressed so we'll look good together.

Take the plunge and get in touch. I'm very happy to meet locals and visitors.

[F4M] I like submitting to married men

You read it right, I'm a F that gets off submitting to men twice my age or more older , Always attracted to carefree vibe, and the idea of submitting to someone older makes it so much hotter.

I'm pretty open-minded to hearing about your kinks and experiences, and will be willing to share my cheating kinks too. Looking forward to it!

…you’re content, truly. You have enough money, time, friends, love, and fulfillment. You’re taking care of yourself, exercising, reading, and getting time away from responsibilities. Or you believe so anyway.

But it creeps in, when you’re alone, you’re out of your routine, maybe a little drunk, just a bit off balance. All of a sudden in the middle of that business trip, the busy conference, the hotel room overlooking the skyline, the ache hits you.

It’s part loneliness, but the urgent part is physical, carnal. You crave the warmth of someone next to you, their skin, their breath. Not thinking but knowing what to do next, how much, how fast, where, when.

You linger a bit longer at the hotel bar, the conference happy hour, just in case someone else is where you are too. Someone is, it’s just a matter of getting close enough to tell - timing and proximity are everything after all. Maybe it’s you. Wouldn’t that be cool?

6’3”, single dad, widower, part time math prof, full time tech consultant. Workaholic, art nerd, 9/10 cook, sucker for the great American novel.

Hope you’re doing ok. Just remember the sun will rise again tomorrow. Every day is an opportunity, just remember to look up. :)

I have never ever posted before, because I’m aware of what can happen to my inbox. But I’m a long-time Redditor, and I refuse to use dating apps.

I’m newly-single, and I can share those details privately. In fact, I’d rather share most of my details privately, if that’s okay.

I’m in the Central FL area, and I’d love to meet someone nearby to spend time with. Ultimately I’d like to find my person, but I certainly don’t have that expectation of everyone I meet. I want low-pressure, but with the spark of possibility!

I’d prefer someone who has been in a LTR before, whether it was a marriage or not. I share custody of one kiddo, so kids are perfectly fine with me.

I’m open to someone between 30 and 55 years old, but I don’t want an age gap to be fetishized. I’m not a cougar. I’m a woman who knows what she wants and if a younger man can meet me where I am, then a gap doesn’t matter.

I’m well into a stable career that fulfills me, and I’d like to meet a man who shares that. I love people, and that informs any political beliefs I have, but I don’t generally talk about politics. It’s just important to me that the man I’m seeing is a lover of all people.

I am ridiculous and funny and if you can match that with me, you’re more than halfway there! I’m romantic, too, and very much appreciate physical affection.

Emotional intelligence is a must for me. It’s not just a buzzword. All couples at any level have bumps, and I want to navigate them well with curiosity, accountability, and repair. If this concept gives you any kind of pause about my personality, I don’t think we’d be a good match.

All of this sounds very Ms. Serious Pants, but I am as irreverent as can be irl. I just have to lay down the law early, because I take my happiness and time seriously.

Let’s meet. Let’s have coffee or an adult beverage and talk for a while.

DM me. Comment sections are a little weird for reaching out this way ;) Please include your age and location🙂

✅PLEASE be in Central Florida.
✅Also, please be willing to exchange photos early.

Busy and independent woman who seeks a fun distraction and someone with an interesting mind. I love the Raptors, and travelling. Not interested in someone looking for support and not looking for a big relationship. I like living on my own and having my own space. I don't need help with crypto thanks....

Flying across this incredible country the other night, this nation that gave us the likes of Alexander Graham Bell, the Roosevelts, Steinbeck, Oliver Wendell Holmes and Kathy Ireland on an SI swimsuit cover in a bright yellow bikini, I had some thoughts.

There was a three-year old boy sitting directly in front of me. Both of us in window seats. I don’t remember exactly when it started, but this devious little fella was all about peeking his head around the seat and making faces at me. Me. Quick little smirks, patronizing me. Taunting me. He wouldn’t even give me the chance to make a very practiced and, frankly highly successful, thumb to the nose, four finger wave retort. Does he know how many children I’ve made collapse in laughter with that move? Who was he to deny me? It rattled me. I gave the back of his mom’s head many rude glances. As a family, I think they learned their lesson.

I won that battle and then I got bored. My mind turned to a regular “what-if” scenario. What if the two pilots fell ill. Simultaneous issues, maybe related, maybe not. Regardless, what if they couldn’t fly? And what if there weren’t any dead-heading pilots on board, stealing exit row seats from paying customers. And what if, after frantic pleas on the intercom from the flight attendants, nobody claimed any aviation experience at all and that left all of us facing the worst kind of death…until a slightly chubby man rose from his seat and said, “I’ve got this.”

What, hear me out, what if that was me waddling confidently up the aisle toward the cockpit, turning to a row of men on my way, saying “stay seated, bitches. I’ll take it from here.”

Strapped in, awesome headphones on, manifesting nimble fingers, flicking switches, saying “check” a lot as the air traffic controller gives me instructions, a crowd behind her, silent as she looks back and says, “this guy knows his shit.”

I land the plane and people stream out, stunned. “Thank you for flying Delta,” I tell them. “Don’t forget elite members get priority seating and free luggage tags.”

Hero for the ages, right there. It could happen.

It’s 11:01 and I’m about to plant some things. It’s also beer 30.

I sometimes photograph things that no one else would photograph. Today, it was a patch of light streaming through a window in a shadowy room. I don’t know why, but afterward I had the feeling that I’d seen something that was about to disappear again.

What was the last thing you noticed before it was gone? And what does that perception say about us?

Just kindness. I’m introverted and not into exciting dates or fancy restaurants - just hanging out in peace and harmony, and see if there’s a cozy connection there. I don’t like to be rushed or yelled at. If you’re single, local ish, 60s-70s, easy going, and don’t have to be on the go all the time, reach out.

So, I’ve posted before. With very mixed results. Made some friends, ran into some Reddit nutjobs, you know, the usual. The wheel keeps on turning.

I’m looking for a long-term relationship that’s on equal footing. If we talk and find out we’re just friend material, that’s cool and a win - but not what I am here for.

Me:

• A functional nerd.
• I have my shit together... nine out of ten times.
• 6’3/1.93m.
• Half a century old, with gray hair, a beard, brown-ish eyes, and glasses.
• Pasty white German.
• I live in Berlin but do not think it's the best city in the world.
• I am in IT project management and a part time student (Business Informatics).
• Don’t smoke and almost never drink (alcohol, duh).
• Not religious (but fine if you are).
• Despite being German, I do have a sense of humor. (I am such a rebel.)
• I am single. No kids and no ex-wives.

Hobbies/Interests:

• Books, movies, TV shows. Eclectic tastes with a soft spot for fantasy and science fiction.
• Casual gaming (video games, tabletop).
• The "Wikipedia rabbit hole” where you start looking up information on the moons of Mars, and end up reading about the migration pattern of sea pigs.
• I’d like to get back into traveling.
• I wouldn’t mind leaving Berlin or even Germany.

You:

• Single.
• Realistically, 35-50. Some wiggle room if we click.
• Can hold your end of a conversation.
• Speak English.
• Do not think Berlin is the best city in the world.
• Not defined by interpersonal drama or the culture wars.
• Politically sane; not a racist nor a supporter of any designated terror organization. (A low bar that you'd think goes without saying, but apparently it doesn't.)
• No drug use, non-smoker.
• No kids, or adult kids only.

Conversation starters:

• What’s a really good use for an icosahedron?
• What’s the greater threat to our way of life: space aliens or evil wizards?
• Why does Ross, the largest Friend, not simply eat the other five?

If you'd like to start talking, do send me a chat message. Doesn’t have to be a wall of text but if you’re sending a one word or one line message, we’re likely not a good match.

This post was written using 100% renewable energy, including the mental kind.

First of all, Happy Mother’s Day to those who celebrate it and that doesn’t include the lady at Home Depot yesterday who said, “I’ll let you call me mommy” when I complimented her on her floral frock.

Got to the airport at 7 for a 9am flight that was canceled the moment I got to the very precipice of security. Options: spend all day in the airport and fly out at 4, two connections and an arrival time of 1am…or go home, work in the yard, torment my children, and declare beer 30 at 1030 CST.

I chose the latter. Speaking of asinine behavior, Sirius has a classic rock top 1000. Tuesday’s Gone is #784. Seven. Eighty. Four. You’re telling me there are 783 better songs than that? Siriusly? That was funny.

12 minutes to go.

Adult playtime? Fun, fit, easygoing mature man seeking something casual and physical, yet consistently enjoyable.

I enjoy engaging conversations, good humor, chemistry, and keeping things straightforward: no pressure or expectations.

I am fit, in my mid-sixties, looking for a mature woman or couple for discreet connection, coffee, chemistry, and maybe a ongoing friends with benefits arrangement for occasional daytime sensual encounters in the Boulder/Denver, Colorado area.

It's important to me that we both understand the need for discretion and balance. I am not interested in causing any disruptions.

Prefer someone mature who knows what they want.

Another airport bar with more stories to report.

I just lifted a glass of beer to my greedy mouth, and as I did the workout app on my watch said, “Congrats, you’re almost there.” Damn right I am.

I actually used “fumble fuck” in conversation today and damn it felt good. Not sure how it was received since the tone was less than kind.

Hootie and his Blowfish are playing in this bar. Not in person. It’s an airport. On the speakers. Man, that’s some garbage right there brother.

Boarding in 35 minutes. Beer 30 cubed, commencing.

{F4M}  56F in Pennsylvania. 

My Modalities: INFP, Enneagram 4 wing 5, Life Path 11, Sagittarius, High Priestess/Empress/Queen of Wands (if you can decode this, we are so “there”.  If not, that’s okay too ;-)

Teacher, artist, introvert, deep thinker, and occasional over-analyzer of human behavior, random social interactions, and text messages. I’m into creativity, spirituality, meditation, music, psychology, design, and meaningful conversations that go from “how was your day?” to “what is consciousness?” I appreciate peaceful energy, intelligent humor, seafood, hot tea with milk, weird observations, and people who are curious about life.

Calm, kindness, emotional maturity, and authenticity are traits I love. I’m trying to enjoy life more instead of ruminating on what-ifs. I connect best with thoughtful, self-aware people who can have depth and humor and can appreciate both the awesome and mundane of life. 

Mostly looking for friendship and conversation first, but open to seeing where things naturally go. I desire open, nimble exchanges without complication, so…

…married, separated, and other romantic entanglements are a no-go.

Hoping to connect with someone thoughtful, honest, emotionally mature, chatty and comfortable getting to know each other at a relaxed pace.

I’m drawn to people who are calm, genuine and easygoing. I value depth, consistency, good conversation, and connections that develop naturally without pressure or games.

I’m taking things slowly, but open to the idea that the right connection could become something meaningful in time. Needle in a haystack right? A girl can dream.

I enjoy the gym, travel, camping, dogs, good coffee, discussing the human condition and how to get the most out of life.

Please only dm if you are NOT in a relationship/situationship.

I may have seen and done a lot, but I still have a curious mind and genuinely enjoy learning about other people’s journeys and experiences. I love nature, animals, great food, immersing myself in DIY projects, gardening, content creation, travel, a touch of the metaphysical, and the occasional online gaming session . I’ve been on a self-improvement journey, and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time.

I’m looking for someone 40+ who is kind, emotionally mature, and capable of genuine conversation with a bit of depth and wit. If that sounds like you, send me a message and tell me a little about yourself.

Let’s be real, I’ve officially reached the age where i sometimes say things without engaging my brain, I’m just the bloke next door though, with a wife and two grown up kids, one has moved out, the other isn't ready for adult life (i dont know who is!) and is staying put.

​I go to work and perform the mandatory 'office social dance' with colleagues I have zero intention of befriending. Why? Because most of them radiate the charm of a mouldy apple. I spend my lunch breaks in glorious isolation because i really can't stand it when people moan about the same thing day after day, i know we all have a little whine from time to time, but crying out loud, change the record.

​When I get home, I reclaim my throne, the kitchen. I cook around 90% of the time, It’s therapeutic, It’s also the only way to ensure the onions are chopped exactly how I like them.

I'll then tidy up, sort the washing, shower, and then engage in my true passion, flicking through Netflix until I fall asleep.

​I'm a contradiction, a blunt instrument (see above, saying things without engaging my brain), but also empathetic, which means I’ll tell you that shirt looks terrible, and then stay awake for three nights worrying if I hurt your feelings.

​I know what I like, I know what I don't like, I’m too old to pretend otherwise.

I'm also a biological anomaly, a night owl and an early riser, basically I don't sleep, I just recharge on coffee and anxiety. I love hot showers, I could stand there for 30 minutes, but my bank account has advised me against it, so now I just cry quickly and get out.

I’m 50, at a calm and content stage in life, and I’m open to meeting someone who adds warmth rather than noise.

I’m a soft-hearted woman who enjoys the simple things good conversation that flows easily, laughter that feels natural, quiet evenings, and moments that don’t need to be forced to feel special. I appreciate a man who is grounded, emotionally steady, and comfortable just being himself.

I’m most drawn to men 50+ who are kind, attentive in a quiet way, and know how to show interest without playing games. I’m not in a rush for anything I’m just open to something real growing if the connection is right.

If you’re someone who still enjoys getting to know a woman properly, with patience and sincerity, feel free to say hello.

Sarcastic like football coffee and star wars among other things also like reading. Longerterm Connections, daily convo, silly selfie wars. Lets make each others day better. Lets be the reason we look at our phones from notifications. Vent, chat, whichever. Looking forward to longerterm connections. Miss that butterflies in stomach feeling from notifications
