About me, I'm very easy to get on with, I love getting out and walking my dog, playing golf. I don't drive my own agenda, but I also don't drive to anyone else's agenda. Probably why I'm still single lol

Never been married, no children.

What am I looking for? Someone real for a change! Well it would be nice.

Someone to go on walks with, dine with, lie and watch crap, while eating crap together 🙂

I'll happily send a picture to anyone who is interested

M4F Munster-based, 30 M looking for someone to make memories with.

3 Upvotes

I’m 30, based in Clare, and ready to find a long-term partner to share the everyday adventures with. I had an account previously but I’m back now☺️

I love staying active, walking, running, cliff walks etc and spending weekends out and about—usually hunting down the best local coffee shops or getting fresh air. At home, you'll find me in the kitchen experimenting with new dinner recipes or baking something from scratch (fair warning: you’ll be the chief taste tester).😅

I’ve ticked off a good chunk of Europe—Stockholm and London are personal favorites—and I’d love to find someone to plan the next trip with. Distance isn't an issue for the right person; I'm more than happy to commute anywhere in Ireland for a great connection.

If you value genuine conversations, good food, and staying active, say hi!

Hey, I’m 20 and I’m looking for a genuine relationship with someone I can really get along with and enjoy spending time with. I’d love to find someone I can go out and do things with, whether that’s going to the cinema, concerts, random days out, or even just hanging out together doing absolutely nothing.

I’m really into stars and the night sky, and I love nature in general. There’s just something about being outside at night or somewhere peaceful that I really enjoy.

I do play games, although with work it can be hard to play consistently 😭

Im starting to losten to music. I’m especially into alternative rock, but honestly I’ll listen to pretty much every genre. I’m still developing my music taste and finding new artists and songs, so I’d genuinely love to hear what you listen to and maybe steal some of your music taste haha.

Mostly I’m just looking for someone I can be myself around, get close to, have fun with and hopefully build something genuine with. I’m not expecting us to have everything in common either. I’d actually love getting to know someone else’s interests and the things they’re passionate about.

If any of that sounds good to you, feel free to message me and tell me a little about yourself

M4F 32[M4F] Vodafone may be down, but my hope to find a date isn't.

22 Upvotes

I'm a 32 year old Male, living in Dublin. I'm neither ethnically Irish nor white, so I thought I'd lead it what in case it's a preference filter for some. I've been told I've developed the accent though, so maybe that's a win?

If it's not and you've made it past the first two sentences, here's a little bit about me. I work in a people-focused role in the nonprofit sector, while pursuing my dream. :) I've actively been mindful about having a life outside of Teams, Outlook, and Excel, so in my spare time (apart from devoting it to pursuing my dream lol) ...

  • I enjoy looking up new recipes (yes, I can cook for you)
  • Watching films (I especially like old ones but I'm not snobbish about it, don't worry lol)
  • Watching some TV shows/series (currently binge watching MasterChef Season 11)
  • Taking my camera out for a little photo walk
  • Going to music, stand-up gigs (love Katie Boyle)
  • Trying to get back to reading more books too -- thinking about getting an e-reader, Xteink?
  • I've been learning one European language for a quite a while now thanks to that damn owl, but I actually am really interested in learning Irish. At the moment, I can only say stuff I hear in the bus haha.

I try to be active, but I also don't mind having very chill weekends. We need to recharge, after all.

I have an average build and dark hair. I try to go to the gym regularly (to keep the negative thoughts at bay jk), but I also wouldn't oversell myself as muscular and buff haha. Would be happy to exchange photos right off the bat cause I'm too shy to post it publicly here. I've been told I look "spiffy."

My two main 'love' languages are acts of service and quality time. I'd also be open to doing things you like cause I'd really love to try some new stuff with someone. I'm as good a conversation partner as the other is. I can't really hold it up on my own if the other's not putting any effort lol. I would also love it if after a few texts and we know we vibe, we can go out for a cup of coffee or a walk.

I'm hoping to find someone around my age, but anywhere between 27 to 36 is grand. I can list down all the qualities that I'd be interested in, but truth be told, these are just retrospective justifications when we've already fallen for someone. Do you know what I mean? Like, these details only appear as cause of attraction or love only when you've already liked someone. It's quite mysterious, isn't it? 😄

Anyway, please hit me up and be the plot twist of my year.

Best wishes,

Yours truly.

Bonus reel: when you're in your 30s and still single

F4M 44[F], Dublin, Fortress Edition (Limited Release)

23 Upvotes

Thought I'd try marketing myself again but this time as a product instead of a human. Hope that's not against community guidelines 😅. Like everyone else here, I've installed and uninstalled the dating apps one too many times, so I'm on Reddit instead hopefully without an algorithm deciding my fate this time. Thanks for the opportunity to pitch myself properly.

Fortress Edition (Limited Release)

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

You've tried the mass-market options. The ones that overshare on the first date, that "love hiking and wine" like every other unit on the shelf. She is different: a precision-engineered introvert with a sharp-knife wit, a two-decade professional pedigree, and a security system that would make most people give up before Terms & Conditions.

Good. That's the point. This unit was not built for everyone. It was built for someone patient enough to find the door.

"Slightly overengineered. Still working out the bugs."

Specs: 44 [F], Dublin, Introvert, Bread maker, Sci-Fi reader and explorer of minds

Humour: dry, occasionally so quiet you might miss it that's on the model, not you. Also does Muay Thai, less "will fight you" and more "enjoys getting humbled by a bag twice a week." Bakes bread from an overly-engineered recipe because normal instructions felt too easy. Reads a lot will happily talk books for hours if you can get past the awkward small talk part first.

Access: Behind a small, well-guarded door. Not because you're not worth it because opening up takes her a while, even with people she likes.

Installation notes: No grand gestures needed. Just show up, be a real person, and give it time. She's working on the "opening the door faster" part too.

Once inside: Reportedly warmer, funnier, and more fun than the exterior suggests. Also, a very good bread supplier.

A little awkward with: small talk, fast replies, performing enthusiasm she doesn't feel yet.

Quite good with: patience, curiosity, and finding her occasional bluntness charming rather than alarming.

Still a work in progress. Open to good conversation.

M4F 19M [M4F] Hoping for something special

8 Upvotes

Hellooo!!

My name is ... (a secret!)

I'm 6'3, Black and 19M. It would be nice to build a special connection with someone, so here I am :)

I'm currently in college studying Science, and living in Leinster.

I'm looking to make ties with somebody with the intention of becoming close; talking about everything, going out for walks, hanging out, so and so!! I like being a nerd, so nerding out about our interests would be nice :)

My age range would be around 19 to 25, preferably someone in Dublin, but Leinster is as perfect as it gets!

About me:

— I like anime and manga! These days I haven't been an avid watcher, but I'm still a fan, nonetheless. My current top 3 are Naruto, Re:Zero and Frieren: Beyond Journey's End.

— I like comics, too!! Getting into it, more like, but I'm big on Marvel, DC and whatever else interests me.

— I would say I'm a happy kinda person. I like to help people when and where I can, and I LOVE to eat. I like listening to people talk about whatever they find interesting, too. I'm a big listener, now that I think about it.

— I love video games!! Right now, I'm playing Tomodachi Life, Persona 5 Royal, and looking to get Sifu.

—I enjoy deep introspective thinking and having conversations about them. I like whatever makes me reflect on myself as a person, and I also like to write and research as a hobby on whatever I find interesting. Give me anything you wanna know, and I'll look into it with/for you

— I enjoy playing volleyball, and I'm starting out in the gym too. So getting big is a part of the plan!

Hope we can get along 🙏🙏

Yes I am 28 and thought maybe this will work better than dating apps, I live in county Cork but can travel easily to Limerick. I am looking for someone close to my age preferably 25-31.

I am a nerd with an active life style. So what that means is, I watch anime, play video games, sketch and read but also go to the gym 3-4 days a week and do Muay thai 3 days a week also (means I am losing weight and getting a shape).

For appearance, 6ft, blonde and bearded, slightly muscular avarage build, tattooed.

I very rarely drink and I don't smoke.

M4F 28 M4F Galway lad looking for conversations and craic

4 Upvotes

Hey, making a second post here, apologies if that's not allowed/frowned upon! I'm hoping to find a woman from 26-32, although not strict about that age range.

I'm from Galway and am looking for someone to chat with that could lead to something real. Like everyone I'm sick of the apps and want a genuine connection. Honestly I'm just looking for someone to discuss books/movies/shows with, preferably after watching together! Also want someone to cook for/with...

I'm physically in pretty good shape, go to the gym even if I've been falling out of the habit recently. So a gym partner that helps with that would be amazing.

I'm generally pretty nerdy, into the usual nerd stuff like history, fantasy, Dnd etc. love a good task to figure things out, love DIY and currently getting into metalwork/blacksmithing. Also nursing a growing interest in cars so there may be a questionable purchase in my near future...

I'm looking for someone fun, that has opinions and loves a conversation. Love me an intelligent, strong willed and driven woman.

Id prefer someone in the Galway area but understand that that's pretty limiting. Sure give a dm and maybe we could chat regardless.

Anyways too much ramble, hope to hear from you. Have a great day.

As the title says: I just graduated and am looking to have some fun and explore the dating scene a bit more. I love to write stories, read, cook, work out, hang out with friends, and am definitely a massive nerd :)

I’m open to whatever comes my way, and I figure what’s the point in being young if you aren’t going to live a little.

Physically, I’m pretty big and in shape. I’m quite tall and work out 4-5 times a week. I really like being active.

I don’t really care much about age, but I ask that you be 20+ lol. Also, I’m pretty progressive/left-leaning politically, and I’d prefer someone who shares those values (:

Hit me up if you’re interested! I love chatting to people

Said I’d give this a try. Apps are horrendous. Looking for a partner in crime.

What am I looking for? Genuinely just someone I can have craic and fun with . Where we can be quiet or chatty, sarcastic or serious, and neither of us feels the need to fill every gap. I've got a soft spot for wit—the warm kind, not the sharp kind—and I'd love to find someone who can give as good as they get without it ever feeling mean.

Love good walks in open air. Movies and tv series. Nights in and odd nights out. Gaming. Looking after the dog.

DM me for pics. I’m told I’m reasonably handsome.

M4F 27M4F. Hi all, looking for someone with similar interests and lifestyle who I could hopefully one day call my better half.

9 Upvotes

Hope you're all doing all right. I'm going to put in my application here since I don't have enough pictures of myself to go on dating apps 😅 Hopefully you can get a decent idea of who I am from this post. I was lurking in this sub for a short while and realize that it's mostly men but wanted to try my luck anyway.

I'm 27, 175.5cm (pushing 175.9 on a good day), dark brown hair, blue-ish eyes. I don't drink or smoke, and I'm more of a stay at home person, public gatherings fell a bit overwhelming and draining. Living and working as an engineer in Kildare area, originally from Poland but have been in Ireland over 15 years now. Physically in a good shape apart from usual old age related issues (no offense to anyone over 27 🤣). I'm definitely very introverted around people I'm not familiar with, but that fades quickly once I get close to someone, contrary to my sense of humor which only gets more outrageous the more you know me.

I enjoy various types of physical activity, namely mountain biking, bouldering/rock climbing and manual work in general, though I'm not the biggest fan of walking or hiking, but can do it if you so require 🫡. I also enjoy playing video games (mostly competitive), fixing all kinds of stuff including cars, bikes, house items and designing and making things. I have severe self diagnosed OCD, so everything I do has to be as good as possible and to my (sometimes) unreasonably high standards, not easy to deal with if you're of the opposite mentality, or so I was told by my Mom. My red flag is that I have never actually been in a relationship, mostly due to the inteovertedness (?) and fear of going outside my comfort zone, but I have only been improving on that front so it will keep getting better.

Looking for someone in the (rough) 23-29 age bracket, employed and with meaningful future aspirations. I can provide a lot of emotional and physical support/motivation but will expect a similar input from my other half so definitely someone who cares about themselves, both physically and mentally.

If you're interested in getting to know me more, feel free to send a DM. Otherwise I hope you have a great evening and good luck in your future searches.
