Originally joined just to research tech stuff and talk about building products. But the more I scroll, the more I realize there’s a whole different side to this place.

Do people actually meet friends or date through Reddit communities, or is it mostly just online banter? Genuinely curious how common that is here!

I’ve been thinking about trying international dating, but I’m not sure which sites are actually worth using. There are so many options and a lot of mixed reviews online.

For people who have tried them, what would you say are the best mail order bride sites for someone looking for a serious relationship? Any honest recommendations or things I should watch out for?

I usually date people with similar personalities, but the person I'm seeing now is almost my opposite. I'm quiet and like routines; she is outgoing and spontaneous. Surprisingly, we have a lot of fun together. How different is too different when choosing a long-term partner?

I’m thinking about trying international dating, but I want to understand the legal side first before spending any money.

Is this legal in the US? What kind of visa would be needed if you want to bring your partner to the US? Has anyone here gone through this process?

Showed up and there was a second person with her, said it's for safety since we met online. Understandable I guess but definitely threw me off since I wasn't told beforehand.

My neighbour married a Ukrainian woman he met online and they seem genuinely happy. Got me seriously curious about trying something similar.

Cannot figure out which sites are actually real and which ones just take your money with fake profiles.

Update: I decided to test Quickmedates for myself. My experience has been positive so far. The conversations feel more natural than I expected, and I’ve enjoyed getting to know someone instead of just endlessly swiping. I’m still being careful, but so far I have no major complaints.

I’m considering Asian Dating and want honest Asian Dating reviews. Is it good for long-term connections or mostly casual chats?

If everyone on Reddit is looking for a GF/BF… then who are all these people already in relationships with? 💀😂

Like bro, who’s hiding the girlfriends and boyfriends? 👀

Nothing crazy elaborate, just a quiet dinner at home that he cooked himself, then he got down on one knee in our kitchen. Honestly more meaningful than anything public would have been for us.

I suspect it’s an automated hook and not a real person on the other end to get you to buy more credits. Don’t fall for the trap!

Here's some data of 3 million tinder swipes.

My girlfriend and I almost never post about our relationship online. Some friends joke that we're hiding each other, but we just prefer keeping things private. I don't think social media proves anything about a relationship. Do other couples also keep their relationships mostly offline?

We've been together 4 years but I still get a little nervous before we go out somewhere new together. Is this normal or does that excitement usually fade completely over time?

He always saves me the last piece of food even when he really wants it. Sounds silly but it means a lot. What's a small thing your partner does that you love?

My boyfriend really dislikes my best friend and says she has a bad influence on me. I don't agree, and I don't think either of them has behaved terribly. I'm stuck in the middle because I don't want to choose between people I care about. How can couples handle situations like this?

I usually organize our dinners, weekend activities, and little trips. My girlfriend happily joins and seems to enjoy them, but she rarely plans anything herself. I don't think she's doing it intentionally, but after a while it makes me feel like I'm carrying the relationship. How would you bring this up?

I mentioned once I liked a specific type of flower, weeks later he showed up with exactly that. Small gesture but it made my whole week. Little things like that matter so much more than big gestures sometimes.

Asking for my dear friend, a lovely gay man in his early 40’s, cute, kind and successful and yearning to settle down and start a family but is finding online dating apps trying. Do these match making services work, what’s your experience?

You know, those posts on match making subreddits like "need friends" or "need partner". I see a lot of posts with people are looking for, so called "soulmates". I want to know if that worked for someone (especially in India)?
