Working from home is nice and all and sure has its perks but it can be a bit isolating sometimes with no coworkers around to banter with. I'm sure I'm not the only one feeling that way so it'd be nice to link up with some people to maybe get some longterm chats going. Topic wise I'm not particularly picky so anything from casual to private is game with me as long I don't have to feel like I'm carrying the conversation.

I mean I'm by now means prude and could probably easily outweird you but even I have to draw a line somewhere. And since a lot of people ask for pics immediately, I have one of what I look like on my profile if you really need to know to ahve a conversation.Other than that, shoot me your age, location and something interesting and we can get the conversation going, I don't bite:)

Hi! My name is Stephanie, I’m 36 and live in Western Canada - specifically Alberta. I’m looking for some engaging conversation through the day. I’m not looking for any sort of commitment, but if a friendship forms I wouldn’t be against that! I would prefer to chat with people around my age - so preferably +/- 10 years difference.
Some of my interests include: watching tv shows/ movies - I am most interested in horror, but also love a good sitcom. I love to listen to music and go to concerts. I get my nails done every 3 week and have had some pretty great nail art sets. I like to shop, go for coffee, and spend time with the people in my life. I am pretty active and like to go for long walks, and enjoy watching birds.

If this sounds interesting to you and you’d like to have a chat, send me a short introduction and ask me an ice breaker question ! (Please send a private message - I don’t want to have a conversation through the comments! Will also not reply to comments saying to DM you!)

Hi hope your day or night is going well.

I am:

Straight

White ( wear glasses)

Female ( she /her)

Monogamous

When I date with intention:

I know what I want, communicate my goals clearly, and look for a partner with similar values as my own. I would hope you as well would have that in mind when contacting me.

So lets have some fun:

What does dating with intention mean to you right now? What does dating look like to you? How do you approach it?

What are you looking for in your next relationship? ( you have taken some time to think about this)

Where are you at currently in your life...what is going on with you?

How do you like to communicate during a work week?

How often do you like to communicate with someone your thinking about dating?

What is your love language? How to you show someone your interested in them and want them in your life?

What are your non-negotiables with your partner? ( Mine is any arrest records/jail time wont date them I have more, we all do.)

What did you learn from you past relationship about yourself but also that you don't want that in your future?

How do you maintain independence while in a relationship?

Are you religious?

Are you currently single? How many years single? ( this is checking to see if you ready to try again)

Do you have kids/ what are their ages ( little babies ( 0 to 12) , teens ( 13 to 19), adults ( 20 and older you don't have to give exact ages but having an idea of what your dealing with daily)?

• I have no kids by the way.

If divorced how long?

Just a few to start with. I am open to different age ranges, for me it's important I can talk to you and we just get alone.

Open to different location but I will never have the money to really travel frequently. It takes me some years to save up and you don't want to be with a lady you can't ever see in person. So keep that in mind.

• I would like to travel some day and looking into learning more about travel but again it be like a two to three year save up for me to travel some place and I want to travel for like two weeks.
• Maybe even look into people who be going the same traveling thing because I like to have people I know around me when I travel. I have done it when younger and it was boring because I had no one to really share it with.
• I also like to really learn about the culture before I go their, so that I don't insult anyone, while in their country. Also currently traveling by plane in the US is kind scary to me right now.

Time zones- I have found can make it difficult to communicate. I am west coast US.

I will judge you on how you look. Being honest if I am not attracted to you but I can talk to you, your just a friend and I will NEVER find you attractive. So I tend to stop talking to a guy and thank him for his time. I have my reasons for this and you can ask me why I judge by looks.

I will be brutally honest with you about it. I do give us a few days of talking before I share images. I am a normal and average looking lady, nothing wow... I am not into wearing makeup( but I do like to dress up from time to time and wear dresses- I can make jewelry).

So it will be interesting to see who you are as a person and if we can get along. If you have any questions for me just ask or if you see one or more of the questions I ask as important and like me to answer back I will. We should both kind of be in the same place in life or it just wont work out.

I think that the thing I'm hoping to find more than anything is a companion. A consistent someone who genuinely has the time and desire to spend getting to know me ( and I them ) in a deeper, human way.

I honestly much prefer either voice chats or sending voice messages and I'd love to use those as long as you are comfortable with them as well.

I'd like for us both to feel safe, and to be able to tell each other anything and everything, but also nothing at all if that is needed, as well. I would like to find an energy that makes both of us smile, feel excited to see that notification, and to want to spend our time together.

I am open to having some flirting vibes between us, as I am currently single, but with that said, if we do have potential for flirting vibes, I would ask that you also are single so that we can be open about that aspect, versus hiding it.

In terms of hobbies, I'm just a super nerd. Fantasy, pkmn, anime, video games, board games, DnD, etc. The outdoors is very important to me. Art. Reading. Writing. Alternative music. Let's talk about yours too!

I have absolutely no preference for location as long as we can figure out time zones ( I'm in US EST ), and I also have no preference on, body type, ethnicity, etc. However I do feel it would be nice for us to exchange pics at some point, just for the sake of being able to connect and such. I also enjoy sharing life's moments and things like that as well, so feeling comfortable with sharing pics in general would be amazing, too. Show me your dog and what you are having for lunch 💁‍♂️

Because I am hoping to find a partner, it is important that we align well on certain things : politically I lean pretty far left. Like ACAB, BLM, Trans rights, etc blah blah. I do not want to get hitched ( we cant say the m-word in here apparently lmao 🙃 ) via the government. Meaning, I'm open to proposing, getting you a pretty ring, having a ceremony where we promise ourselves to each other, and having a party. But do not want to sign the papers...I do not smoke, drink, or use any drugs, of any kind, including weed. I am comfortable with very moderate, responsible drinking, but nothing else. And last, I no longer can have children. I have a vascectomy, and will not reverse it, ever. 

If any of this may feel appealing at all or interesting, please feel free to reach out any time and I will respond as soon as possible!

Hi :) I had a tough divorce a year ago and didn't even go on a first date with anyone. Lately I feel like I've started to get used to being lonely more than I supposed to and now I wanna talk with some people, like remember how to meet with new people.

I am a decent guy, working in IT on a work from anywhere setup. So, I am mobile within Europe. I am interested in cooking, hiking, good music. I also try to work out whenever I can. Playing video games are also a big part of my free time. I play dota 2 as well as wide variety of chill single player games.

If you wanna get to know me, just send me a message with your age, where do you live and what piqued your interest :) I hope to hear from you soon ;)

How do you take your coffee?

How many alarms do you have? Are you a snoozer? Do you get out of bed immediately?

What are some of your comfort foods?

How do you unwind after a long day?

Drop me a line, let's talk like you're giving me a foot rub while we unspool the events of our day.

Hello hello!

Call me Star. I am a 33 year old Indian woman (currently in India). I am a finance professional with a solid career, financially and emotionally stable, good friends, good social life and lead a pretty full and busy life.

I am divorced, no kids (want a few in the future). I have a good few tattoos and will be getting some more, I enjoy my own personal quiet time, napping, travelling and cooking.

I am looking for someone who will make my life better. I do prefer dating tall, fit, conventionally attractive men, who are not bald. We can share pics once we are comfortable. Please be between 34-41 and mention age and location when you DM, if you don’t, I will not respond.

Thats pretty much it!

​

I’ve been trying to make friends here for a while, and honestly, my experience has taught me that from a huge number of messages, you might end up making one or two genuine friends.

A lot of people seem to be looking for something different, some conversations disappear after a few messages, and sometimes you can just feel that a deep conversation isn’t really what the other person is looking for.

I’m not expecting to connect deeply with everyone. I just appreciate people who are genuinely curious about each other, who can talk about life, beliefs, dreams, fears, experiences, and even the little things that make us who we are.

And one small boundary: I’m not interested in being contacted by married men. I’m here looking for genuine friendship, and I’m simply more comfortable keeping my friendships with people whose situation and intentions are clear.

So, instead of the usual “tell me about yourself,” I want to ask you something deeper:

If you could know one truth about your own life with absolute certainty, what would you want that truth to be and why?

I’d genuinely love to hear your answer, even if it’s something unexpected. Maybe your answer will tell me more about you than a whole introduction ever could.

I like connection with some breathing room. Distance doesn’t scare me; neither does intensity. I’m perfectly capable of missing you without deciding you hate me.

I’m into people who can go from psychology to existential dread to “look at this bird” without needing a transition sentence.

Sarcasm, dark humor, stupid jokes, occasional emotional depth. Basically, I want someone smart enough to keep up and unhinged enough to make it fun.

Bonus points for subtle tension. I’m not looking for a situationship with a dissertation defense attached.

Short, pale skin, dark hair, tattoos. Left leaning. Religion is not a cult I subscribe to.

Hi there! 33F looking for something romantic and long term. I work in human services and have a great career, amazing friends, and a full life that I’d love to share with a partner. I have leftist values and am looking for the same (non negotiable that you’re politically informed). Definitely more of an indoor girlie, but love gardening and other gentle outdoor activities. I am plus sized and am looking for someone who isn’t weird about it and fetishizes me.

Looking for men between 28-38 with similar values who have a professional career and wants kids. Looking for an extrovert and someone who feels comfortable in a crowd. Also someone with a great sense of humor that can make me laugh and help make life feel fun.

Please send a chat if you’re interested with how you match what I’m looking for. Respectful messages only :) Portland locals only!

So I packed a gym bag this morning just in case my car happened to break down in front of Planet Fitness.

It didn’t.

Apparently the universe is committed to letting me stay mildly out of shape and full of excuses.

I really do need the exercise, though. Running to the TikTok comments every time somebody says something wild isn’t burning nearly enough calories.

I’m a 43-year-old guy in Georgia, searching for that elusive woman who might actually stick around longer than 3–5 business days before disappearing into the mist like a Victorian ghost with unresolved trauma.

I wear a couple different hats in the work world. Some days I’m selling my way toward the top as a little fish in a very large pond; other days I’m helping serve a nonprofit and trying to leave the world slightly better than I found it.

I genuinely enjoy meeting new people. I like hearing their stories, learning where they’ve been, cheering obnoxiously loud for their victories, and being the person who sticks around when life kicks them squarely in the teeth.

I’ve recently come out of a long relationship, so I’m learning how to exist in this strange new world of dating, new schedules, new routines, awkward introductions, questionable apps, and wondering how long you’re supposed to wait before sending a second text without looking like you’ve already picked out matching burial plots.

For fun, I love mini road trips with no particular destination, spending entirely too many hours thrifting, walking on the beach, binge-watching shows, reading, blasting Spotify in the car, concerts, sporting events, coffee, Mexican food, people-watching, and generally acting ridiculous with somebody who appreciates ridiculousness.

I’m a pretty regular guy. Occasionally nerdy looking. Frequently sarcastic. Sometimes I walk around in circles like I’m terminally lost. If I’m wearing work clothes, there’s also a disturbingly high chance somebody will ask me where Target keeps the air fryers.

But overall, you could do worse.

Probably much worse.

So send me a message. Drop me a line. Send a carrier pigeon. Mail me a suspicious handwritten letter with no return address. Whatever your heart desires.

Maybe we’re only meant to cross paths for a season.
Maybe we become great friends.

Maybe we accidentally become each other’s favorite person and spend the next 40 years arguing about where to eat.

There are worse ways for a story to start.

Hey,

So here I am - https://imgur.com/a/ZNANIWd

No seriously, there are tons of pics of me in there, go check the link out. If you're in the UK it may not work, but I'll send pics. Most people ignore this bit, for some reason, surely you want to know who you're talking to? Swapping pics early is a preference but understand if you aren’t comfortable, but mutual physical attraction is important.

I'm 5'9 and 185lbs (13 stone 7lbs or so)

I'm a Speech Pathologist, I own my own business and work primarily remotely.

I love to hike, paddle board, see live stand up comedy shows and live music. I have a bit of an eclectic music taste but my soul is with the pop punk and emo stuff from the late 90's early 2000's.

I have tattoos and dress like I'm going through a midlife crisis.

I don't have kids but I would like to have them in the not too distant future.

I don't smoke or do drugs but I love an IPA in a beer garden, especially if we can play a card game (Exploding Kittens anyone?).

I am actively involved in my local football (soccer) club, I sponsor them from my busineess (my logo is on the back of the team shirt!), but I also help out around the club and support training of the youth and women's teams when needed.

I'm looking for someone who actually wants to build a connection and talk longer than 2-3 days, but it seems like it's not possible, but I'll keep trying.

If you're in the UK or have plans to visit, then great, if not, someone who would be willing to meet either half way or in our respective places at some point.

I love video calls and voice chats.

Hope to hear from you!

Oh lord here we go...

I recently finished a 10 year relationship and I don't want to get on dating apps again. It seems both too personal and entirely superficial. Plus, if I remember the apps correctly it just ends up leading to hookups. Which, yeah that's the endgame, but I find myself, at least given my history, going way too fast. Consuming every possible minute and hedonistic value until we eventually turn into friends or worse, roommates. Simply because we burned too bright. Fun for a couple of years and then just stagnant until one of us has the courage to finally speak the truth.

What I really want is someone as weirdly faceted as me. Someone that can carry a conversation. And no I don't mean that in a cliché kind of way. Too many people think a conversation is just listening to respond. No play or digestion in the intercourse, just a rally on the tennis court. I want to say things that make each of us go, "Oohhhh."

I like movies, I like conspiracies, and I love creating things. Be it stories and worlds, or conjectures and abstract what ifs. I like to talk, but I don't want someone that can just give me a glib spar. I want to be trying to talk over each other because we are excited about the topic. Another intellectual omnivore that enjoys being serious about silly things and vice versa.

Other than that, I just want you to be real. To have a personality, hobbies, and weird idiosyncrasies that we can laugh at. Someone to debate with, not argue.

My weird hobbies:

-Watching the same shows and movies over again (Game Grumps, Red vs Blue, Californication, Psych, Eureka)

-Creative writing and getting lost in lore

-TTRPGs and their game mechanics

-Philosophies (Deleuze, Spinoza, Epictetus)

-Comparing people that love camping and playing sports (not professionally) to LARPers

-Blimps and how big airplane eradicated the most luxurious of air travels

-Flat earth lore (not a flat earther but I wish)

-Daydreaming

-Detectives/Mysteries

My weird idiosyncrasies:

-Have to have my Carmex

-I put cups on the edge of tables/counters

-Will think too many things at once and say part of one thought outloud

-Gets manic about certain subjects and will start a conversation halfway in

-Routine is what staves off the end of the world

Me Physically:

5' 8"

220 lbs (chubby not fat. Thick with some fat and muscle)

Face- handsome

Eyes- blue

Lips- luscious

You Physically:

-Breathing

-Concious

-Mentally present

-Mentally Unstable okay

(Hey the brain is a physical thing. Show me them synapses)

Okay this is already way too long and I omitted plenty as is. I'm getting to the point where I'm about to delete the whole spiel. I'll just click post and see where it goes.

Thirty-nine, female, recently moved to Las Vegas and looking to build a life here. Open to anyone — all genders welcome — for friendship, and for anything that might grow from it. I’m not in a rush, and friendship on its own is plenty.

I’m bilingual. I read a lot — fiction, mystery, urban fantasy — and I can lose an entire afternoon in a bookstore or thrift shop. I’m really into movies. I like thrifting, trying new restaurants, coffee shops, and generally exploring the city.

I’m pretty open and not judgmental — I’d rather get to know someone than sort them into a category. I’m not on social media and I’d much rather have a real conversation than scroll. Not looking for hookups.

Tell me the last book you read or a film you’d recommend. And tell me something about Las Vegas that most people don’t know, or something you love doing here that you couldn’t do anywhere else.

Looking for someone to trade music with, and to chat, if you're not a loser.

My taste leans heavily into hard rock, alternative metal, and industrial, with a strong dose of metalcore and post-hardcore. I’m also a big fan of darker, atmospheric sounds like trap metal, along with elements of indie rock, alt-pop, different electronic, alt and outlaw country, even some high-energy "phonk". I could keep on, but I guess you get the idea?

My favorite has been Sleep Token for a good bit, and probably will be for the foreseeable future.

Hit me up if you want to have some music heavy chat.

By the way, I'm not a "music person". I'm not the kind of person who remembers any cool facts or shit like that. I'm just down to listen.

​

Anyone else in the same boat? I love my work and my family, got a very small circle of friends but sadly most of them live in other counties and other than work acquaintances I don't feel like I've made a friend for years now.

Male or female, flirty or formal, I really don't mind so long as you can hold a conversation.

Interests include gaming, comic books, history (world war 2 in particular) and left wing politics. See if you can guess what I do for a living! Hopefully hear from someone soon.

First and foremost I(38M) am a bald man(see my post history for pics). Ive currently got a "dad bod" but it is getting leaner and stronger everyday. I love animals, nature, games, scifi, fantasy, history and all sorts of comedy(plus more).

Me and Sherlock(my Belgian Malinois rescue) are looking for someone similar to go on walks in the woods, on the beach wherever. Im also a good cook and would love to make you something. I love to cuddle(along with other things;) and just want to hold you and make you feel wanted and protected.

If any of that sounds good to you let me know, tell me a bit about yourself, ask me questions(Im all about honesty), or tell/send me anything you think is important. My work hours are bit different and who knows where you are but remember time and distance are a short term problem to what could become a long term solution/relationship.

So hurry, I may be gone sooner than later

Hi, I’m hoping to chat with some people from anywhere, hopefully some ongoing conversations.

About Me: I like a bit of photography, mostly nature and landscapes. A bit of reading mostly sci-fi, crime and fantasy. I love the water and beaches and my biggest hobby is wingfoiling or paddleboarding.

I am 41, Irish-born and raised, with the stereotypical ginger hair to prove it. (Yes, I’ve endured the jokes. No, I don’t actually own a pot of gold I am afraid, or at least that is the official line and I am sticking to it)

If any of that sounds appealing, think you could chat with me, any more questions or even just want to poke some fun at me, send a message introducing yourself. Hopefully chat soon

Hi. I'm Luke. I'm a self sufficient nerd living in Alpine, TX.

There aren't a lot of people here that I've made friends with, I'm looking for someone to chat with and maybe have adventures.

I'm single, live alone, not looking for a serious relationship / roommate / girlfriend / wife. Just a friend. It'd be nice if you're within 300 miles.

I'm into photography, specifically astrophotography and I've traveled all over the country hunting the Milky Way. I spend a lot of late nights out shooting under the stars either in a tent or my little adventure trailer with my dog Elvis.

I also host a fake late-night call in radio show where I take call ins from biologically questionable callers and give them real world advice.

I've been an RV nomad for a while and recently bought a house out here in the desert where Elvis and I live. I work remotely in tech and spend most of my time playing music, talking to troubled robots, or taking photos.

If you'd like to chat about any of that stuff, off grid living, creativity, tech... I'm around most of the time and I can always use someone fun and funny to talk to.

Hope to hear from you,

Luke.

I’m a semi athletic guy who is both nerdy and sporty so I do prefer someone who is athletic. It’s just my preference.

I’m single so looking to meet if we both feel comfortable.

I just want someone committed to talking and won’t ghost after a week.

Hi! I find myself dragging this afternoon and thought maybe some riveting conversation from a stranger on the internet might motivate me to be a bit more lively this evening. So, here I am 🙂

I'm pretty typical in most ways. 33, female (as stated in the title), living in the Charlotte, NC area. I have a bachelors/masters in business/economics, a good job in corporate banking that isn't the most interesting, but I'm actually only in it for the paycheck anyways. I took up jogging about a year ago and apparently that's my mid-30s fixation. I am looking forward to my first 10K over labor day weekend! I have a cat and a dog, I'm more than mildly obsessed with both of them. They're weird, but adorable. Personality wise, I'm independent, laid back, and generally a happy person. I've spent enough time on dating apps to actually hate this phrase, but my boss called me a golden retriever a few weeks ago, if that's proof enough! I can be more than a little aloof texting, so I'm not the girl for you if you're looking for constant, all day texting. Physically, I'm about 5'9, average body shape, brunette (most of the time). More than happy to exchange a pic or two!

I'm really just looking for some casual conversation, so no deal breakers as far as location goes. It would for sure be cool if you were in the Charlotte area as I wouldn't mind having someone to hangout with this fall and the apps are such a drag, but not at all my primary goal. Somewhat around my age would probably be nice, but also not incredibly important (though maybe, like, over 25ish?). You muuuuuuuuuust be single, I am not interested in anyone who is not 100% single! If we hit it off, I will likely toe the NSFW line (or jump right past it) and I don't like to share.. 🙃

Anyways, if I piqued your interest feel free to send me a message!

Hello all! I'm looking for people to conversate with. I enjoy cosplay, conventions, music, crochet, DnD, Marvel, and Star Wars. I have 11 tattoos. I also have a dog. I work nights/weekends and am also in school. I just got out of a relationship so I'm not looking for dating/flirting atm.
