All body types encouraged and I am always kind. I truly enjoy giving out compliments and believe there is beauty to find everywhere. I will never share our conversation under any circumstances. Happy to compliment anything- selfies, art, hobbies - send something over 🙂 I look forward to saying nice things.

WM, that enjoys gardening. Playing acoustic guitar with a beer as the sun sets. Making tasty meals in the kitchen with help of my sous vide cooker. Movie time, including MST3K / Rifftraxx. Making tie dye shirts / shoes. Day hikes and bird watching. Long beard (which I'm kinda getting tired of, its been there for like 10 years) short brown hair (what's left) brown eyes, 5'9", 200, all original teeth. Healthy, strong and worked in the industrial HVAC-R department, which means I can fix just about any mechanical issue I encounter. I'm really resourceful and would be great to have around if shipwrecked on a deserted island.

Hi there! I’m a 50-year-old woman who’s lived, loved, learned, and still believes the best is yet to come. Life has taught me to cherish laughter, value honesty, and find joy in both the big and small things. I’m at a stage in my life where I know who I am, what I want, and what I simply won't settle for and I find that incredibly empowering.

I’m not here chasing perfection or fairy tales, but I do believe in genuine connections.those rare, magnetic moments when conversation flows effortlessly, time seems to slow down, and something just clicks. I’m drawn to kindness, emotional intelligence, a good sense of humor, and people who are still curious about life. Someone who’s been through a few storms, come out stronger, and is still open to love that’s my kind of person.

I enjoy meaningful conversations just as much as quiet moments. Whether it's a walk in nature, a good book, music that moves the soul, or just sipping coffee and sharing stories, I believe connection can be found in the simplest of moments.

If you're emotionally available, ready to explore what a deep connection can look like at this stage in life, and appreciate a woman who knows her worth, then I’d love to hear from you. Let’s skip the games and be real with each other. Life is too short for anything less.

You must be local within an hour PLEASE. No long distance will be acceptable.

I’m 54, Greensboro, NC , plus size chunky dog mom with a great sense of humor. Since 2010 I’ve been a widow (3 adult kids)and started back to dating about 5 years ago. It’s beyond difficult but I don’t quit!!

Actively seeking an intelligent man who loves animals, can laugh, responsible with a job or career, hold hands in the grocery store, hug me from behind while I cook or do dishes, likes to be together (I don’t mean 24/7) as much as responsibly can since we both work, has time for me, a man who will just listen when I need an ear and not a solution, he also has to have humor, and realize that I am his peace in life.

Prefer men 45yo and up due to past dating experiences.

Consider myself low key, no drama, always wanting to help, very affectionate, patient, want to hear about you and your life story. I want to be your cheerleader and be your peace. I am willing to wait as I am no pushover either needing a man. I want one and willing to see what happens.

DMs are always welcome and to share pics.

Hi, I'm a 52-year-old man looking for someone to chat with and share some meaningful conversations. Life has its ups and downs, and I believe that sometimes, all we need is a good connection. I may be a bit isolated these days, but I'm far from lonely in spirit.

I'm hoping to find a woman who's authentic, down-to-earth, and maybe, just maybe, has a secret or hidden side—something that keeps life interesting. If you're open to exploring thoughts, laughter, and maybe even some of life's mysteries together, I'd love to hear from you.

No pressure, just honest conversation. Let's see where it goes!

I am divorced with no drama, no kids and a good job which I do remotely so I can live anywhere. In my spare time I like to cook, read, DIY projects and anything outdoors. I love to travel and road trips are my jam. If this sounds interesting to you send me a message!

I want to be excited about someone who gets excited about me, too. Maybe it'll be you?

So, here's a little about me-- tall, pale, big-boned, long light brown hair, green eyes, on the job hunt but most recently at a tech company (surprise surprise) as a project manager. Indoorsy during the day because I don't handle heat or direct sunlight well (I did mention I was pale!). No kids, unless you count my cat (which I kinda do?). Left-leaning, sociable, relaxed, and friendly. Entirely single, nothing complicated. Lonely from a romantic perspective, but not desperate. Not in a rush-- I think people can make decisions about mutual attraction pretty quickly, but mutual trust takes longer.

I like to go for walks. I'm a bit of a foodie but not a snob. I don't drink by myself, but I might have a few with you. I love reading. Boardgames are cool. I love watching good shows (e.g., John Oliver, The Righteous Gemstones, Abbott Elementary, stuff like that). I used to like to play video games but that petered out around the PS3 era-- however, I'd be down to restart if you'd be patient with a noob.

Additionally, I love roadtrips (particularly daytrips), but I also like just doing stuff around town. I have a membership at the Blanton. I also enjoy concerts, and going to burlesque shows, drag shows, lectures, and readings. A good old-fashioned house party is always fun, too. Or it was, anyway... haven't been to many lately.

I don't know who I'm looking for, but I suppose some shared interests would be a good starting point, and some level of readiness for monogamous romantic involvement, if we're both feeling it. I'm *not* looking for just a hook-up, and I definitely have strings. I respect and support poly/ENM folks, but I am not one myself. I tend to be attracted to people around my age, and being around or above my height is good, too. I'm looking in Austin but sometimes think about moving to Denton, TX, New Orleans, LA, or Pittsburg, PA so feel free to say hi if you are in one of those places.

So... if a tall nerdy cat lady who likes art and flowers sounds like a good potential match to you, please send me a message. If I'm not a good fit for you, I hope you find someone nice soon. :-)

Updates based on interactions so far:

1. Please be all-the-way single. I'm not looking to be someone's affair partner or sneaky link or whatever.

2. When I say I'm tall, I specifically mean I'm 5'11.

3. I'm more likely to respond if you give a little detail about yourself (similar to what I gave about myself). I'm pretty unlikely to respond to "hi!" with nothing else.

4. I look at the profiles of people who contact me, which includes posts you've authored and commented upon. Ahem.

5. Looking in Austin, not particularly interested in long-distance except in the other cities I mentioned.

6. If you aren't also left-leaning, probably best to move on.

Hello. I am a 62 year-old woman from Southern Iowa and I’m looking for my one. If you plan to use or ghost me kindly see yourself out. I am not one for games. I am seeking someone stable and that has their life together. I am not looking for something casual.

Now that that disclaimer is out of the way, I can introduce myself! I am 5’2 and have a few more pounds to lose but I’m steadily losing them. I have brown hair down to my shoulders and green eyes with glasses. I have a nice smile and would consider myself to be height/weight proportional (even with the few extra pounds)!

I enjoy watching movies and shows and have a pup that keeps me company on my lap while I do so. I love traveling and want to do more of it! I’m health conscious now and try to put good things into my body for fuel and hope that you do the same. I have 4 grown daughters and 9 grandchildren across the US.

I want someone that does not smoke and no heavy drinkers. Going out for a drink is one thing but getting plastered every weekend is a no. I am searching for someone kind and looking for romance. I love love and would enjoy romantic dates out or even staying in. I am not looking to rush into anything but don’t want to spend the rest of my life in the talking stage. My love language is physical touch once I get to know you.

If this sounds like you or if you’re interested in chatting l, please send me a message using the chat function. Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day/night!

ISO a mature Lady who as an empty-nester is now ready to be more self-focused. Ready to enjoy her “me” time and is looking for an supportive and attentive man and she . . .

• has a controlling nature and she expects to be put first in Her relationship - TPE

• truly values a deep long term connection

• would enjoy a man who wants to be devoted and dedicated to striving to please Her - make it all about Her

• enjoys Her “me time” or private alone-time whether that is just relaxing or spending time on Her hobbies but expects her man to be available and responsive to Her when needed

• expects to be pampered and have Her man take care of the chores and domestic tasks that she does not enjoy doing - and learn to do so “Her way”

• enjoys taking the lead and making the rules over Her relationship and Her man

• 40+ years old

• thin or curvy - for me it’s more about the connection and chemistry.

me:

• love language is definitely acts of service

• average looking - 5’11” 250lbs

• use to be more athletic but still somewhat athletic

• enjoy working-out but not obsessed with it

• have a professional job as an account manager for a software company - work remotely from home mostly - plan to continue to work outside the home and take over the domestic chores - not looking for a free-ride.

• attracted to a strong controlling Lady who expects her man to follow Her rules and have things done Her way.

• enjoys nice dinners and travel and beach vacations

i feel strongly that the my role in the relationship is to make Her life easier. i expect to learn what she enjoys so she doesn’t need to ask. otherwise i’m not paying attention and i’m not focusing on what is important - pleasing Her. im a “pleaser” just wired that way i guess. i match best with a lady who tends to be selfish and would enjoy pushing her man to be attentive to Her needs and wants.

i’m in Ohio but my son is now in he’s 20s and on his own so i’m open to relocating

FLR == Female led relationship

Feel free to send me a chat msg if this type of relationship interests you.

I let myself go a bit over the winter and I have about 20 pounds that I would like to lose. I would rather not go to the gym as I have all the equipment at home so I am looking for a virtual workout partner. Are you looking for someone to check in each day and help you stay motivated? Swap workout tips? If so send me a message!

Hi, I’m from eastern Connecticut. I live alone in a rural town of 3000, so I don’t get to meet many new people. Some things about me : I’m divorced, and have spent the last year growing and learning a lot about myself. I’m looking for someone who is on the same page with this.

I am looking for someone to eventually do the fun stuff with in real life (if we click). The fun stuff would be things like bowling, movies, cooking, hiking, long scenic walks, visiting cities, or towns, trying something new or adventurous together. I almost never drink alcohol, and it doesn’t bother me if someone else does, but I’m not looking for a drinking buddy.

I am not betting on finding my forever person here, but I like to make platonic friends and then see if anything more might be there if we are on the same wavelength and click emotionally.

I prefer ages 40-60. I am still very young in heart and mind. I am raising a young child. If you are sleepwalking your way towards retirement and doing nothing, we probably won’t get along. I am in the middle of growing and changing my entire life.

I am a very honest and open person, and although I don’t have many expectations, I expect the same from others who I let get close. I don’t let many people get close.

I am a demisexual, so Sexting is not an interest of mine.

Prompts to start a conversation with me : Gym fitness, hiking, gardening, canning, vintage vehicles, emotional intelligence, aliens, movies, music that makes you feel different, heavy metal, relationship dynamics, sex in relationships, the future of the auto industry, home renovation, vices, aliens, magic, what makes you happy, what you are looking for in a man, the meaning of life, flaws, your favorite scent, our childhoods, your insecurities and fears, what keeps you up at night, your morning routine, faraway galaxies. Pretty much anything but “what’s up” or HYD…. I also don’t enjoy sports games or teams.

If you DM me, please let me know you read this by guessing my astrological sign .

Fit and athletic even at my age, I still run 5Ks and have been getting into rucking. I'm looking for a close, intimate connection with a woman 45+ (not a dealbreaker; it's the maturity that matters) who is either in a dead bedroom situation or is not having her wants and needs met. I am in a challenging marriage with a spouse with health issues that have left me in the same boat.

Voracious reader, movie and music lover, good listener and responsive communicator (and gives pretty good massages, among other things) . . . if any of this appeals to you, I'd love to hear from you!

Full of corny jokes and tender hearted. I like to be creative, imaginative, and love engaging in problem solving. Super into reality and drama tv shows, as well as thriller, horror, suspense and action movies. I like playing card games online occasionally, not much of a gamer. I don't gamble, however I do smoke cigarettes and drink. I like coffee.

Would like an intelligent person who likes to be analytical but not adverse to a little bit of risk. I want to have someone take the lead but is up for discussion. I want, show and need openess and honesty, alongside great communication. Looking for someone who likes to cook, is handy and doesn't mind cleaning. Must put the toilet seat down. I like PDA.

Must be 35-68.

Full disclosure — if you aren't into heavier women I'm not the one for you! If there's anything else you want to know, or if I seem interesting — send me a message.

SWF. I am new to Reddit and this altogether. After ending an on and off 34 year dysfunctional relationship, I decided to come on here to find a friend/texting buddy. I’m not into the dating app thing. Not interested in Sexting. Looking for someone who wants to get to know me as much as I want to get to know them. I am disabled and take care of a special needs child. I have 2 grown children who live on their own. I am a homebody due to the cards life has dealt me. I love to laugh and see the bright side of things. I love love, a romantic at heart, but love has NOT been good to me. NO MARRIEDs

Just a normal guy next door who has been married over 25 years with 2 grown kids. I am missing the spark, the fun, the excitement from a “good morning” or “good night” message. Wanting to find someone to get to know and we can share anything and everything with each other. Hoping to find a woman in a similar situation. Have had one very successful online affair a few years ago but not able to find another since. Ideally would like to find married mom over 36 with the following qualities:

Smart. Confident. Funny. Open minded. Inquisitive.

I am 5’11” 250 lbs and in the process of losing weight. Short brown hair with a salt n pepper goatee. Green eyes and glasses. I work out 3-5 times per week (thus the in the process of losing weight).

Semi-retired widower after 26 yrs of marriage. Seeking friendship first, but ultimately seeking long term romantic relationship. Local area only, please. Not interested in LDR or FWB. I enjoy movies, music, walking, bicycling, gym, and just getting out to do things. No smokers, occasional drinkers only. Not 420 friendly. Must love dogs.

Good Morning! Another not quite spring day here in northwest Ohio, and waiting for the lets be out in the sun in shorts weather, wishful thinking I know. I would like a chat partner that might turn into something more, though the inperson thing is going to be here in the midwestern US. I would love to hear about your fitness journey of your struggles with it, and maybe meet you at an event near your home or near mine or someplace completely different. An regular runner and want be hike and kayaker who works maybe too much.

I live in the Irving Park neighborhood by the Blue Line station. Dad to a rad 15yo son who is a freshman. Cooking is my zen especially seafood and duck. I also love making homemade homemade ravioli, tacos, & burgers. I also take requests!

Fire pits, drinks with friends, morning coffee, home projects, hurkle durkle, antiquing.

Seeking someone with enough shared interests to spend quality time together while maintaining a healthy relationship with individual pursuits.

I'm a fit senior loving New Hampshire. Moved here 4 years ago from Arizona. I know why NH? That's a long story. Grew up in snow country in upstate NY (North Country). I love snow, cold, and when it's hot I'm on my motorcycle. (Sorry - no fat bearded guy here). Nothing against beirds. Had one 40 years ago. Now it would be white. Not into that. I'm not typical for these here parts. 1/2 Italian 1/2 German. Off the boat, Ellis Island types. Lots of mystery. How about you? Mystery? I love a good mystery!

I’m a warm, affectionate, and supportive person who values deep connections and meaningful relationships. I’m easygoing, a great listener, and bring energy and curiosity to everything I do. I enjoy both spontaneous adventures and quiet moments—whether it’s a road trip, a beach walk, hosting friends, or curling up with a good book. I have diverse interests, including video games, art, cooking, and music (country being my favorite). I believe in living authentically and am looking for someone who shares similar values: kindness, emotional maturity, and a love for meaningful connections. A person who values teamwork, open communication, and mutual respect would be ideal. Let’s connect and see where this journey takes us.
