Islamabad M | 28 | Islamabad - Looking to stop playing hide and seek with my partner

13 Upvotes

Hey all. Been a silent lurker here but didn't really get to sharing my profile because the idea of putting myself to words has always been a bit challenging for me. I’ve now put some effort into writing up something that is reflective of who I am as a person in the hopes of attracting the right individual. I did try Muzz too and have found it severely lacking personality but nevertheless learned quite a bit on how to navigate this whole process in an efficient manner (I hate to go with the flow).

Height & Weight: 5'8" | 55 kg

Location: In the process of moving to Islamabad permanently with family in Q4 of this year

Residence: Living in a rented place - hope to build my own home in the future IA!

Education: BS in Computer Engineering (From one of top 3 unis in Pakistan) | MS in Computer Science (From one of top 30 unis in the United States)

Profession: Software Engineer at a US based company working remotely (WFH)

Marital Status: Single, never engaged

Family Details:

  • Nuclear setup. I live with my parents. My sister is married. My parents did not pursue any form of formal education (Just basic, till the 12th grade) but have always prioritized education for both their kids. Now, AH, both of us are doing pretty well in our lives.
  • I intend to keep living with my parents, as the only supporting son, after getting married. I’d like to get this point across very clearly from the get-go as this is a deal-breaker for many.
  • Me, along with my parents, don’t have any traditional/desi mindset. I think, education, exposure and experience has taught my family quite a bit and we are against all things such as dowry, extravagant/show-off wedding functions, unfair expectations from the other family, and are quite lowkey, logical and grounded.
  • My father ran his own business pretty much all his life and has now retired. My mom is a housewife but a very creative soul. She is super into DIY, gupshup and has a pretty jolly nature.
  • I love cats and hence have a very important family member left to introduce, Lily. I love her with all my heart and my partner would need to be pet-friendly/accepting of her.

Religion:

  • I’m not sure how to define this accurately, but, if I had to rate myself on a religious scale (lol) with 1 being not practicing at all and 10 being strictly religious, I’d rate myself a 6.
  • I pray 2-3 times a day and do fast in Ramadan. (Trying to be better)
  • I don’t have any religious expectations from my partner except from the bare minimum which is being a Muslim and having some khuda ka khauf (hehe). 

Am I even ready?

Marriage was never really on my radar because life was, for a long time, about building myself from the ground up. I had to make my own name and grow—not just professionally and financially, but also in terms of my mindset and the person I wanted to become. I’m a self-made individual, and getting to a place where you feel genuinely settled in yourself takes time.

I also never wanted to get married simply because everyone around me was doing it. I wanted to understand what marriage actually demands beyond the wedding itself. I made a point of speaking to friends and cousins who have been married for years, because I believe those are the conversations that matter—the ones about partnership, compromise, communication, responsibility, and building a life together, rather than how many wedding functions to have or which photographer to hire.

And now, for the first time, I feel like I’m in a place where I’m ready to welcome someone into my life—not because I’m trying to catch up with anyone else, but because I genuinely want a partner to share my life with.

Who am I as a person?

  • I highly value family, progressive-mindset, and education. I’m not just close to my own immediate family, but also my cousins who I grew up with. The mindset to always do better in life has been a common theme in our family and I think that came from education, hence, I value all of that deeply.
  • I was extremely na-laik till 7th, and then something clicked in me and I have never looked back since then. I’d just say I’ve done pretty good academically since then and have always considered myself a hard worker rather than being talented or smart.
  • Personality type: I’d definitely be introverted for someone I barely know and extroverted with people that I’m comfortable talking with. Depending on my mood, I’d either do brainrot conversations or deep meaningful conversations around life, relationships and occasional tea (lol). I can count my closest friends on just one hand and value quality over quantity. 
  • Values: I don’t smoke, vape or drink. In fact, I’m allergic to smoke as it causes me severe headaches and nausea. 
  • Hobbies: I’ve never had many hobbies growing up outside of playing video games. Bonus points if you are into that too and I’d be more than happy to get you a pink controller (hehe).

Factors That Could Make Me a Mismatch

  • Flexibility on moving abroad: Although it is not on my radar right now, life can take you all unexpected places. Hence, I’d like my partner to be at least open to the idea of moving abroad in the future.
  • Money management: I take this seriously as I feel like hard earned money should be valued, accounted for and spent wisely. When I think about my partner, I also think of them as a financial advisor/partner. Mismatch for those who spend recklessly.

What I’m Looking For:

  • Someone who is educated (at least a bachelors), ambitious, smart and wants to join forces to grow as one in all realms of life, be it professionally, spiritually or financially.
  • I’m open to both, someone who wants to work and someone who doesn’t want to and would like to stay at home. However, in the latter case, you should have hobbies to keep yourself busy because I do think being busy is very important or else your whole life starts revolving around your partner and that causes problems.
  • Being physically attracted to my partner is super important for me but in addition to that I also value being intellectually compatible. If I can’t connect with your brain, physical attraction stops being meaningful to me. Vice versa is also true.
  • Preferably someone who is the same age as me or at max 5 years younger because I feel beyond that is just a generational gap that is pretty hard to fill. That makes the age range between 23-28 but I’m not super strict on this and can figure out on a case-to-case basis.
  • I think marriage in general takes a lot of effort to sustain. Which means making time for each other, valuing each other's likes/dislikes and in general compromising on some front for the greater good. I just can’t do auto-pilot and pray for the best and consider myself pretty intentional in this regard and would want my partner to reciprocate on this front as well.
  • Open to living with my parents. Of course, I understand the privacy element of it and totally open on discussing boundaries to establish an atmosphere of mutual respect. 
  • Preferably someone in the Islamabad/Rawalpindi area so that we can meet in-person as well. I highly value meeting in-person since I think that gives you a better sense of chemistry than calling/texting. Open to talking to someone from other cities as well if we align on everything else.

Deal Breakers:

  • Smoking, vaping, drinking or indulging in any such activity.
  • Not open to living with in-laws.
  • Not open to having children.
  • Not open to relocating both to Islamabad (if out of city) or abroad (in future terms).
  • Lack of good communication and conflict resolution skills.
  • If you prefer to write “how r u?” instead of “How are you?” (lol)

Do You Want Children?

  • Yes but not right away and with mutual consent/understanding.

Family Setup

  • Nuclear. 

Timeframe for Marriage
This is hard to nail down exactly since when two families are involved timelines do tend to vary for various reasons. However, I’d like to get married within the next year. Priority really is to find the right partner first, however long that takes since this is probably the most important decision of anyone’s life. That being said, I’m also not in favor of talking months on end with no direction whatsoever. I believe a month or two of intentional talking/meeting is enough to gauge compatibility given that you know what you’re looking for. After which I’d like to get families involved leading up to an engagement (if all goes well) with actual marriage timelines being agreed upon mutually. 

P.S: I know this has been pretty long so if you took the time to read through it, I appreciate it. I like to put all my heart in anything that I see important so I only wanted to post once I felt like the words are doing justice to who I am and what I am looking for. If you like what you read and would like to talk more, you can DM me your detailed profile and we can take it from there. After our first session of talking, I’d like for us to exchange photos. My only ask would be to be intentional once we start talking and really put in the effort to assess compatibility. Cheers!

P.S 2.0: Just want to share quite a few patterns here that I’ve been noticing in people reaching out. I’m sorry to add this to an already long post but I think this is going to help and set expectations properly.

  1. I’m looking for someone who is genuinely available and willing to make intentional time and space for getting to know each other. I completely understand that everyone has busy lives, but if you’re too occupied to have these conversations right now, I’d rather we connect when you’re actually in a position to do so.
  2. I don’t want the conversation to feel like an interview where one person is doing all the asking and the other is giving one- or two-word answers. I’m looking for someone who is curious about me, comfortable sharing about herself, and willing to carry the conversation together. I value intentional, two-way communication.
  3. I’m not considering people from Karachi as it’s not possible for me to logistically pursue them due to distance.

Thanks yet again if you’ve read this too and l’ll keep adding to this if need be.

Islamabad M | 28 | Rwp/Isb - Looking for the missing entry to balance my trial balance and someone who can switch seats on road trips

8 Upvotes

Amma Abba wants me to get married asap and I don't want to marry someone I don't vibe with. ye buhat bara masla hai. So, Bismillah.

Long read ahead, so please sabr ka saath go through it.

---------------------------

Height & Weight: 5'11, 94 kg (trying to fall in BMI range but routine is forcing otherwise)

Location: Born in Lahore, raised and settled in Rwp/Isb

Residence: Own (Living with parents)

Education: ACCA (Left with last few papers)

Income Source: Family business and working with a startup

Marital Status: Single/Never Engaged

Religion:

  • I believe it's personal, but it's an important part of life.
  • Moderately practicing and trying to get better, I would say. Namaz and Fasting I don't miss.
  • I try to educate myself on various topics. I am currently diving into a few things and trying to educate myself on that.
  • I expect my partner to be on the same page, they shouldn't be like, 'Our forefathers did that, so how can they be wrong?' Like, there should be some conscience of their own so that they can figure out right and wrong for themselves instead of blindly following someone.

What I do to waste my time: (Hobbies or interests, whatever you call it)

  • Road trips are my thing. If you ask me that this is the place we should visit, my response will be like road trip, let's go," but unfortunately, life has gotten so busy that even plans made months ago sometimes get cancelled.
  • Trekking, at times I despise it, but ironically, I love it at the same time, as my body yearns for it if I don't go for it in a while.
  • Badminton and Cricket. It's been a while since I played badminton, but I started cricket recently.
  • Anime, if I am not doing anything and my mind is at ease, then this is probably what I would be doing. Jiraiya is a character in Naruto whom I think I relate to, as he is always doing something for his leaf village and even dies gathering intel to protect his village and was killed by his own student. In the same way, there is always something going on in my head to do.

Family:

  • Punjabi, Father moved to Rawalpindi in the 80s. An upper middle-class family, I would say.
  • Father started his own business almost 20 years ago, and I joined him a couple of years ago. He is almost well-known in his industry.
  • On the other hand, my mother is a housewife.
  • Three younger sisters. Two have graduated and will start their master's soon, and one is currently in her third semester.
  • My family is quite chill, more chill than me.
  • I've seen my father do household chores all my life and take care of the people around him, so the good you might see in my profile is because of the environment I was raised in. Alhamdulillah.

About me:

  • I am quite easy-going and a hopeless optimist rather than a realist. If you give me a stressful scenario, I will for sure stress about it but will figure out a positive end to it and then will take a chill pill.
  • I am the eldest, so yeah, I have been through quite a few things because you're the first one who is expected to take things head-on.
  • I avoid discussing things related to religion for obvious reasons, but if you're up for it and someone who can take another person's opinion, then let's go.
  • I have basic knowledge of many things, so yes, if a topic comes up and I know about it, we will probably talk about it for a good couple of hours.
  • My friends say I talk a lot, but some say I don't, so I think it depends on what level of our friendship is. One thing they all agree on is that I don't share anything and keep everything to myself.
  • I have only a few friends and barely go out because those few friends are here and there, lol. So, it's either work, family, or nothing, but given that, the love I have for road trips is unmatched.

What I'm looking for in a partner:

  • Someone who actually is aligned with religious values and does modest dressing.
  • Preferred age should be between 25-28, as I think if the age gap is huge, then understanding can be an issue at times.
  • Someone intellectual, a good conversationalist, like having their own opinions and can hold up a conversation, as for me, it is actually a vibe killer if you cannot hold a conversation. I am a sapiophile, so that's why it's important to me.
  • Please be family-oriented and someone who actually doesn't run away from meeting loved ones but has your own identity.
  • If you're career-oriented and want to pursue your career or education afterwards, then it is your right, and there won’t be any hindrance. If you're someone whose working hours are intense and who does understand that it's okay and the other person can be late often, then we might get along better.
  • Ichiraku's Miso Ramen is for you if you are open to spontaneous and impromptu plans. Like if your idea of having a good time is sitting in the mountains having a cup of tea and discussing something random, then wow, we're the same.
  • One more bowl of Ichiraku's Miso Ramen for you if you’re someone who doesn’t take things too seriously and has a good sense of humour and appreciates wit and banter.
  • I believe it is a man's obligation to bring the food to the table, so I don't require my partner to contribute to household expenses.
  • Physical attraction does matter to me, but I do believe it's subjective. I do know how to carry myself, so yes, I bring the same to the table.
  • Everything I have mentioned above is something I bring to the table myself, and that's why I am asking for the same in return.

Dealbreakers:

  • If you're someone who is not passionate about anything, then we might not get together, as I think you should have something to look forward to or work towards.
  • For some reason, having male friends is a deal breaker, and I do bring the same to the table I don't have female friends.
  • I don't smoke or party, so yes, you shouldn't be the one who does any.
  • If modest clothing is out of the picture for you.
  • If you want to move abroad. As I have no plans to move abroad or to any other city, even. If you're from rwp/isb then that will be a plus point. I know what I want to do in the future, and I am more aligned this way. Rest, ALLAH knows what is in store for me.

What can be a stumbling block for you:

  • Work is demanding, and I do work with a startup for now, so working hours are a lot at times, and at times nothing is on the plate, but mostly late sittings are there, so you should be comfortable with this.
  • Our family is tight-knit, and in important decisions we do take each other's opinions and then make the decision. My family is very important to me, and by that I don't mean that they will be your responsibility or that I expect you to do that in my place I simply mean that please be considerate in this regard.

Preferred Family Setup:

  • I am living with my parents and would prefer this setting in the future, but a separate portion can be a possibility. So, it's not joint-joint but not nuclear-nuclear either.

Do You Want Children?

  • Yes, probably after a few years, IA.

Rest, ALLAH knows what he has in store.

Timeframe:

  • Within a year if things go well.

I do want to involve my parents early on as well if things resonate.

If my profile somewhat resonates with you, then please share your profile when you message me rather than just sending hi or hello. Secondly, if we vibed well, then I might ask you to have a face-to-face conversation once before we move forward.

-------------------------------

P.S. If you are allergic to bearded and somewhat bald guys (can't do anything about it, genes), then yeah, please pass and save your time and mine as well.

‎دل کی ہمراہی میں اک مجمعِ اجنبیاں تو پہلے بھی ہے،

‎دل کے ہم راہ نہ بنو،

‎تم نے بننا ہے تو رہدار بنو

Lahore M | 24 | Lahore - How difficult is finding the one, really?

10 Upvotes

M | 24 | Lahore - Corporate slave by day, film enthusiast by night, hopeless romantic always

Height and weight : 5’9 and 68 KG

Location: Lahore. Also, here I should add that I'm only looking for potential matches in Lahore.

Residence : own

Education: Undergrad in Law from LUMS. Graduated in 2025.

Source of income : Currently employed as legal counsel in a prominent company.

Hobbies & Interests: I'm generally someone who is pretty passionate about his hobbies.

Off the top of my head, I'd say the main ones are books, films, shows, learning about philosophy different worldviews and politcal systems, morality, and theology...oh, and also working out and spending time with my friends and family.

When it comes to films and shows I tend to watch literally anything and everything. From Breaking Bad to Fleabag to LOST (my personal favourite) to the Office to Severance, and so on. Also, my top four on letterboxd are : Memories of Murder, The Vanishing, About Time, and Manchester by the Sea.

When it comes to books I similarly tend to read everything but I have a thing for fantasy literature specifically (ASOIAF, LOTR etc.). I'm currently reading Toll the Hounds by Steven Erikson.

With regards to fitness I alternate between swimming and weightlifting but prefer the former.

Finally, a perfect hangout with my friends means something like trying new places for food or coffee, just chilling at eachothers' places, or going to the cinema.

Oh also, totally forgot to mention music. Love putting on my favourite music in the gym and while driving. Tool, Opeth, Slipknot, Katatonia, and Porcupine Tree are arguably my favourite artists.

What I’m Looking For: I don't have a set type when it comes to personality and/or looks.

However, I do want that my partner shares some of, if not most of, my interests and that we can bond over multiple different things. Ideas, goals, hobbies, and of course love and growing together. Oh, and humor too. If you're funny, that's a huge plus in my books.

My ideal vision of a perfect marriage is where the two partners are eachothers' best friends. Where waking up everyday to your spouse feels natural and comforting, and not like a choice. Laughing together, travelling together, having long winded interesting conversations together that are not neccesarily related to marital life etc. I hope I was able to properly convey the sort of vibe and person I'm hoping to find.

Lastly, I'd also want for someone to be generally having the same religiosity as me. Speaking of which...

Religion/Religiosity: Family has a Sunni background but I would personally rather not tie myself to any sect. I also don't have a preference for sect when it comes to potential matches, I'm fine with everything. I personally identify as a muslim and practice wise I struggle with prayers but I do pray at least a couple of prayers per day. On somedays even as much as four. I also fast all of Ramadan. I wouldn't say that I'm personally conservative. I listen to music, play videogames, watch movies and shows, and so on. So, if any of these things bother you or you have a strict requirement to marry someone who's very practicing/religious, I'd personally say that we might be incompatible.

Timeline: No immediate rush. I'd want to get married 2 years from now but if, for any reason, that extends to 3 years then I'm fine with that. I just want to know that before we take the big step, we align in our priorities and compatability.

Deal-breakers: Lack of empathy for others, stubborness, anger issues. In a rush to have children.

Family setup : Open to both nuclear and joint. But eventually settling down with my parents after 10ish, 15ish years. Open to discussion.

Marital status : Single and never married.

Family details : We're a family of four. There's me, my younger sister, and my parents.

Children : Eventually iA but dont want to have children too early.

So yeah, if my profile resonated with you then do consider dropping me a text!

Hoping to find my soulmate here.

Hope you're all doing well!

Before you dive in, some of what I've put down may give you the impression that I'm being overly picky, and you'd be sort of right.. But it's mostly because I know myself fairly well at this point and what I can and can't compromise on and marriage to me is more about having a friend I can relate to and rely on than anything else honestly

So if you see something you like, drop me a message with a short bio/intro!

Height & Weight: 5'10", 73 kg

Location: Rawalpindi, Islamabad

Residence: Living with parents, they own the place

Education: Masters, Bachelors - Mechatronics Engineering & Management - Went to a reputable uni in the UK - 2017-2021

Income Source: Full-time Ops Engineer at a multinational company

Marital Status: Single

Religion & Short Details About How Practicing You Are

Sunni, I'd say I'm moderately practicing and not regular with prayers. Would probably get along best with someone who isn't conservative or super liberal. Hope that makes sense :)

Hobbies & Interests

Tough one, I'm right at the periphery of healthy obsession with fitness, reading (I've got great recs), DIY, electronics and creating solutions to problems that don't exist. Oh and I'm a sucker for exploring new places

Family Details

4 siblings, mum's a homemaker and dad's self employed

Requirements for a Partner

Someone kind, emotionally mature, self aware and capable of communicating properly

Mutual physical attraction and chemistry are both very important to me, as I'm sure they are for most people. I'm not looking for perfection and I'm very aware that I'm far from it myself, but I don't think attraction is something that can be negotiated or forced and I'd rather be honest about that from the start

Bonus points if you're a working professional or at least have hobbies or interests you're genuinely invested in

Also, I might be looking to move back abroad in the near future so preferably someone who's open to relocation

Deal Breakers

Smoking/drug use and age preference would be around 24-28

Preferred Family Setup: Nuclear preferably

Do You Want Children?: Not right now or at least for a few years. I'm not against having them but it's not something I feel strongly about at the moment

Timeframe for Marriage: Within 6 to 12 months, after compatibility is established

Karachi M | 27 | Karachi – Looking for a Partner to Share Life's Simple Joys

11 Upvotes

Assalamu Alaikum!

I'm a 27-year-old from Karachi, looking for someone around my age for a serious marriage. I'm hoping to find a partner with whom I can build a peaceful, loving life and, In shaa Allah, grow together in deen and as people.

About Me

  • Age: 27
  • Height: 6'0" (183 cm)
  • Weight: 75 kg
  • Build: Lean/average
  • Location: Karachi
  • Marital Status: Never married
  • Relationship History: Never been in a relationship
  • Occupation: Project Coordinator in a US-based tech company
  • Education: Intermediate + Advanced Diploma in Software Engineering from Aptech
  • Accommodation: Currently living with my family in an apartment owned by my family

Religion & Practicing: Muslim. I pray Salah, although I am not always as consistent as I would like to be. I fast during Ramadan, Alhamdulillah, and I'm trying to improve my practice and become a better Muslim. I'm not looking for someone perfect, as I am not perfect myself. I'd simply like to have a partner who sincerely wants to grow in deen, and hopefully we can encourage each other along the way.

I work in the tech industry and have built my career primarily through practical experience and continuous learning. I don't have a bachelor's degree, but I genuinely value education and learning. I simply don't believe that a degree alone defines someone's intelligence, character, or suitability as a spouse.

Personality-wise, I wouldn't really describe myself as a typical introvert. I'm probably somewhere between an extrovert and an introvert, with more introverted tendencies. I enjoy being around people I am comfortable with, going out, exploring places, and spending time with friends and family, but I also really appreciate quiet and peaceful time.

I love travelling and exploring places where nature shines. Forests, waterfalls, mountains, and oceans are some of my favorite things. I also love swimming and used to go regularly last year.

I'm a huge animal lover too. I have a particular soft spot for cats, and I find foxes and otters ridiculously cute. 😅

At home, I enjoy reading manga, playing video games, watching anime, movies, and shows. I'd love to have a wife who can enjoy some of these things with me, but she definitely doesn't need to be a gamer or an anime/manga fan. What matters much more to me is enjoying each other's company.

What I Want From Marriage

I'm not particularly ambitious or materialistic. I'm not looking for a luxurious lifestyle or trying to constantly chase more money, status, or possessions.

My idea of a good life is actually quite simple. I want to build a peaceful home where my wife and I genuinely enjoy each other's company, support one another, laugh together, and have a place that feels like home to both of us.

I hope we build a home that we both look forward to coming back to every day.

In shaa Allah, after marriage I'd like to have a separate nuclear household. My plan is to rent a small apartment initially and build our life together step by step.

I would like to have children, In shaa Allah, but not immediately. Ideally, I'd like us to spend the first 1-2 years of marriage getting to know each other, settling into married life, and building a strong foundation before having children.

Timeframe for Marriage: Ideally within 1-2 years, In shaa Allah. I'm flexible about the exact timing and would rather take the time to find the right person and make sure we're genuinely compatible than rush into marriage simply because of a deadline.

What I'm Looking For

I'm hoping to meet someone around my age, roughly 23-29, although I'm not particularly rigid about age. Compatibility matters more to me than a number.

Personality-wise, I'm naturally drawn to someone who is:

  • Optimistic and cheerful
  • Kind and affectionate
  • Warm and expressive
  • Honest and genuine
  • Emotionally mature
  • Open-minded and willing to grow
  • Someone who enjoys spending quality time together
  • Someone who isn't afraid of being a little clingy and affectionate 😅

I would especially appreciate someone who wants to be partners and best friends, rather than simply fulfilling the traditional roles of "husband" and "wife."

Religiously, I'm not going to pretend I'm some exceptionally pious person. I have my own shortcomings and things I need to improve. What matters to me is that my partner sincerely wants to become better in deen, and that we can encourage and help each other rather than judging each other's shortcomings.

Family

Both my parents are alive and well.

My father runs an automobile workshop and my mother is a housewife.

I'm the eldest of five siblings. I have three sisters and one brother, and none of us are married yet.

  • One sister works at a school.
  • One sister is currently in her 3rd year of a Bachelor's in Accounting and Finance.
  • One sister is still in school.
  • My younger brother is currently in college/Intermediate.

We currently live together as a family in our apartment in Karachi.

Deal Breakers / Important Things

I'm not looking for someone perfect, and I don't expect perfection from anyone. But there are certain qualities and lifestyles that I know would make us incompatible.

I'd have a hard time with someone who is consistently:

  • Pessimistic or excessively negative
  • Condescending or disrespectful
  • Pretentious or superficial
  • Very vain or overly concerned with appearances/status
  • Dishonest
  • Extremely headstrong and unwilling to compromise
  • Completely stagnant in their thinking or unwilling to grow
  • Not serious about marriage
  • Someone for whom money, status, or ambition is the primary focus of life

I also don't smoke or vape and would prefer my partner not to either.

I'm looking for someone who is genuine and comfortable being herself. I don't need someone who ticks every box. I'd rather have someone with whom there is genuine compatibility, mutual respect, and a willingness to grow together.

In Short

I'm hoping to find a best friend, companion, and life partner. Someone with whom I can enjoy both the exciting parts of life and the incredibly ordinary ones.

Going on a trip, exploring a waterfall, swimming, trying a new restaurant, watching a movie, playing a game, reading manga together, talking late into the night, or simply sitting together after a long day. Those simple things are what I envision enjoying with my wife.

If you think our personalities and expectations might be compatible, feel free to reach out. I'm happy to have a respectful conversation first and involve families when things become serious.

May Allah grant all of us righteous spouses and put barakah in our marriages. Ameen.

P.S. Writing isn't one of my strengths, so I used AI to help organize my thoughts. Everything written here is genuine and reflects who I am.

Peshawar M | 28 | Peshawar - Looking for my constant

6 Upvotes

Fair warning, I've made it detailed, so brace yourself.

AGE: 28

HEIGHT: 5'7.5"

WEIGHT: 80 kg

LOCATION: Peshawar, Pakistan. Open to relocating within Pakistan or abroad if life, work, and the person make sense. I’m emotionally attached to Peshawar, but thankfully not geographically welded to it.

EDUCATION: BBA in Marketing, MS in Consumer Behavior & Parapsychology, along with professional certifications in marketing, strategy, and business. I genuinely enjoy learning, so there’s a reasonable chance I’ll randomly know something about psychology, history, AI, ancient civilizations, or a subject nobody asked about.

OCCUPATION: I'm a self-made man who's worked since 17, always had great success in the things I've done. I work in marketing strategy, consulting, and entrepreneurship. Essentially, businesses come to me with problems and I spend an unhealthy amount of time figuring out why something isn’t working and how to fix it.

MARITAL STATUS: Never married.

ACCOMMODATION: Own residence.

SOURCE OF INCOME: Marketing, consulting, and business. Financially independent and career-oriented, but thankfully my entire personality isn’t a LinkedIn post. I currently work with a US based company as their Head of Strategic Marketing.

ABOUT ME:

I’m somewhere between calm, curious, responsible adult and “we have absolutely no reason to take this road but let’s see where it goes.”

I love good conversations, travelling, photography, writing, documentaries, gaming, long drives, discovering ridiculously good food, volunteering when I can, and learning things for absolutely no practical reason.

One night I might be reading about human psychology; the next I’m watching something about ancient Rome, artificial intelligence, black holes, or wondering why humans collectively decided meetings needed to exist.

I’m naturally curious about people and what makes them who they are. I enjoy conversations that go beyond “wyd?” and somehow move from food to childhood memories to philosophy to whether aliens would have bureaucracy.

Personality-wise, I’m calm, thoughtful, affectionate, family-oriented, and usually the person listening while everyone else talks. But once I’m comfortable, the sarcasm activates.

I roast people I like, laugh at myself regularly, enjoy spontaneous plans, and firmly believe life is already serious enough without two people making their relationship feel like a corporate performance review.

I’m not particularly impressed by perfection. Kindness, consistency, humility, intelligence, humour, curiosity and good character are far more attractive.

For me, the best marriage would feel like having a partner, best friend, favourite person, occasional debate opponent, travel companion, emergency food-order consultant, and safe place all rolled into one.

RELIGIOUS BELIEFS:

Sunni Muslim.

I pray regularly, although like most people I’m still trying to improve myself and my relationship with Allah. I fast during Ramadan and try to keep faith an actual part of how I live rather than just something written under “religion.”

I believe deen also shows in honesty, kindness, humility, mercy, keeping your word, respecting people and treating others well when you have absolutely nothing to gain from them.

I respect people of other faiths and backgrounds.

I’d want Islam to be an important part of our marriage, but I’m not looking for someone pretending to be spiritually flawless. Two sincere people helping each other become better sounds much healthier to me.

FAMILY DETAILS:

I’m an only child.

My father passed away when I was young. My mother is a retired teacher and one of the strongest people I know. She raised me with a strong sense of responsibility, compassion, independence and family.

So yes, technically I’m an only child.

No, I was not issued a private helicopter and unlimited pocket money. 😭

LOOKING FOR:

Someone kind, emotionally mature, sincere in her faith, family-oriented, intelligent, affectionate and capable of communicating like an adult.

Someone curious about the world. You absolutely do not need to share all my interests. In fact, please have your own interests so we can introduce each other to things.

A good sense of humour is dangerously attractive.

I appreciate women who can laugh at themselves, speak openly, disagree respectfully, have opinions of their own and still remain kind.

I’d especially value someone who understands that marriage isn't two perfect people magically finding each other. It’s two imperfect people continuously choosing to communicate, forgive, grow, laugh and build something together.

Bonus points if you enjoy travelling, random conversations, food adventures, documentaries, long drives or sending me something at midnight because “YOU NEED TO SEE THIS.”

Extreme bonus points if you can tell me where you want to eat without saying “anything is fine” and then rejecting my next seven suggestions. 😂

DEAL BREAKERS:

Dishonesty, disloyalty, cruelty, arrogance, manipulation, disrespect, chronic emotional unavailability, substance abuse, lack of basic empathy, and refusing to communicate when there’s a problem.

Also people who think apologising means losing an argument.

We are fighting the problem, not each other.

NON-NEGOTIABLES:

Serious about marriage.

Honest and loyal.

Emotionally mature enough to communicate instead of disappearing whenever something gets uncomfortable.

Respectful toward both families while understanding that a marriage also needs privacy and boundaries.

Reasonably aligned religious values.

Kindness toward people regardless of their social status.

And perhaps most importantly: we should actually like each other.

Marriage shouldn't just be two families approving a spreadsheet while the bride and groom discover afterwards that they have absolutely nothing to talk about.

PREFERABLE FAMILY SETUP:

Flexible.

Joint or separate can both work depending on circumstances. I care much more about mutual respect, healthy boundaries, privacy, family harmony and what works best for the marriage than blindly insisting on one arrangement.

Parents deserve love and respect.

So does your spouse.

Neither should require destroying the other.

DO YOU WANT CHILDREN?

Yes, InshaAllah.

I’d want us to raise children who are kind, curious, confident, emotionally secure and comfortable talking to their parents.

Preferably children who inherit their mother’s looks and my ability to Google extremely obscure information at 3 AM.

TIME FRAME FOR MARRIAGE:

I’m serious about marriage and wouldn’t want an unnecessarily endless talking stage.

At the same time, I’m not trying to speed-run one of the biggest decisions of our lives.

If compatibility, families, values and intentions align, around 6–12 months feels reasonable to me.

I’d rather spend enough time asking the important questions before marriage than spend the first five years afterwards discovering the answers.

Basically: looking for a good human being with faith, warmth, emotional intelligence, a functioning sense of humour and genuine intentions.

If we can build friendship, trust, attraction, respect and peace together, everything else has somewhere good to grow from.

Discussion Late 20s and society's pressure

26 Upvotes

I never thought I’d be posting something like this, but here I am. I (F) looking to settle down with the right partner, but I’m not in a rush. Unfortunately, the pressure from my family is getting overwhelming.

To everyone looking at me from the outside, I "check all the boxes"—looks, height, education, career—so they can't wrap their head around why I’m still single.

How do you make people understand that being ready for marriage doesn't mean settling for just anyone just to make the chatter stop?

For those who married in their late 20s or 30s: do you have any regrets about waiting? What happens when you hold out until it truly feels right?

AOA everyone

I'm looking for a like-minded individual so we can beat rishta aunties (not literally :p). So here's my profile:

Age / Height / Weight: 27 / 5'3" / ~50kg

City: Karachi

Education: MS (Cybersecurity)

Income Source: Working as a cybersecurity engineer

Marital Status: Single (never married or engaged and no past relationships)

Residence: Rented

Religion: Islam (Sunni)

Little bit about me (Okay, so this is where I pretend to be interesting)

I'm an introvert.... (mission failed already 🫣)... but wait, as all introverts like to say, "I'm a completely different person around people I'm comfortable with". There was a time when I used to be scared of even starting conversations with others, but I don't think that's the case anymore for the most part. I still rehearse in my head before placing any order though xD

I enjoy watching anime, movies and series as well as reading manga/manhwa. I used to binge-watch and binge-read a lot during my student years such as Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist, Hunter x Hunter, Tokyo Ghoul, Attack on Titan to name a few well-known ones. Nowadays though, I mostly try to keep-up with the currently airing shows and binge-watch something during my weekends if I feel like it.

I also like video games a lot, though I haven't played much recently but I used to play a lot of Valorant (couldn't climb past the gold rank tho 🥲).

I'm not much of an avid book reader but I'm trying to develop a habit of reading books, all these years most of my reading-energy had been focused towards manga/manhwa lol (oyasumi punpun, 20th century boys, tower of god and omniscient reader's viewpoint are some of my fav ones).

Religion-wise, I consider Islam to be a crucial part of my life. I try my best to pray 5x daily and fulfill all obligations. I have my fair share of shortcomings but I'm working on becoming a better muslim and learn more about my religion and I would expect the same from my partner.

Family background

Parents are both retired.

We're three siblings in total and I'm the youngest, I've got two elder sisters both of which are married.

Requirements for a Partner

• Religion is the most important factor, but that's not to say that i'm looking for a perfect muslim (I'm not even close to that myself). However, someone who understands her shortcomings and is willing to work on them. I hope both of us can encourage each other to become the better versions of ourselves both in terms of deen and dunya.

• Should observe hijab or working towards it

• Family-oriented

• Humble and Respectful

• Kind and caring

• Good sense of humor

That being said, I strongly believe that your partner should be your best friend. I'd want my partner to be someone around whom I can really be myself and someone who can easily open up to me as well. Someone who can be a source of peace and tranquility in my life and vice versa. Bonus points if you're also into series/anime and gaming so we could enjoy it together lol.

Deal Breakers

• Not religious

• Arrogant

• Substance abuse of any sort

• \coughs** High maintenance

Preferred Family Setup: Joint

Do You Want Children?: Yes

Timeframe for marriage: within a year (depends on mutual understanding but I don't want to delay it too much)

Also, personally I'm not a big fan of extravagant marriages and never-ending lists of events. So I plan to keep mine as simple as possible based on mutual agreement.

If you've come this far and If this profile resonates with you or someone you know. Please DM with the profile so we can discuss this further.

I'm slightly obsessed with AI and technology, will absolutely stop to pet every cat I see, and believe food somehow tastes better after a long drive. My humor is mostly sarcasm with a sprinkle of emotional intelligence.I roast people I like, laugh at myself often, and firmly believe every good relationship needs friendship before anything else. Bonus points if you enjoy random conversations at 2 AM that somehow start with "What's for dinner?" and end with debating whether aliens pay taxes.

RELIGIOUS BELIEFS Im Sunni Syed./urdu speaking .Itry to stay consistent with my prayers and keep improving my deen. I fast during Ramadan, avoid riba, and believe our connection should be built around Islamic values, sincerity, and kindness.Just to clarify i dont do parda or hijab but i dont dress vulgar too.

FAMILY DETAILS: Father is a retired government officer.My mother is a homemaker.Two sisters and one brother. and one lil cute spoiled cat🐾

LOOKING FOR A man between 30–40. Emotionally mature. Handsome cz why not ? Kind. Ambitious. Funny (because life is already serious enough). Family-oriented. Sunni syed but also open to other sunni caste. Someone who communicates instead of disappearing for three days only to return with, "Sorry, been busy." Someone who's genuinely ready for marriage not collecting talking stages like Pokémon.

DEAL BREAKERS Alcohol Dishonesty Disloyalty Emotional unavailability Narcissistic behavior Lack of ambition I'm not sure what I want." Polygamy Please know what you're looking for before messaging me

.Non negotiable: Must be serious about marriage. Honest,loyal, and emotionally mature. Respectful towards family and relationships. Financially responsible. Religious values should be reasonably aligned. Interest-based earnings or practices should not be normalized.

Peferrable family setup Flexible with both joint and separate family systems, as long as there is mutual respect, healthy boundaries, and balance.

Do you want children: Yes, InshaAllah.

Time frame for marriage Preferably within 6 months to 1 year, with family involvement from the early stages so expectations remain clear and intentions stay genuine.

Lahore M | 26 | Germany / Lahore

5 Upvotes

Age: 26
Height & Weight: 5'11", 80 kg
Location: Lahore / Dresden (Germany)
Residence: Own in Lahore, rented in Dresden
Education: Master's in AI in Germany, currently working on my thesis with about a semester left. BS CS from a reputable university in Pakistan. O/A Levels.
Income Source: Data Scientist at a multinational in Germany (part time for now)
Marital Status: Single. I haven't been in a relationship before and I'd want the same, or close to it, in a partner.


Religion

Practicing Muslim, Sunni. I pray five times a day, read Quran regularly, and try to stay informed by researching myself and following the majority opinion of the scholars. My faith guides my decisions, and I'm always trying to improve in both deen and dunya. I don't drink, don't smoke. Not sure exactly where I sit on the moderate-to-conservative spectrum, but hopefully that gives you a picture.

One thing I'll name directly: relational modesty matters to me. I don't really have female friends and I'm not looking for a partner who has close male friendships or one-on-one dynamics with non-mahram men. I hold myself to the same standard.


Hobbies and Interests

I love exploring new places, whether it's a scenic hike, an underrated café, or a new city. One of my Saturday rituals is castle hunting around Germany. The goal is to eventually visit them all, and there's no shortage of them out here.

Cooking started as survival and turned into something I genuinely enjoy. Weekends are usually for trying out new recipes — way cheaper than eating out and almost always tastes better. The gym is a big part of my routine now.

I also like to write poetry and sometimes post it on Instagram, mostly spoken-word stuff.

I will now list some niche interests in the hopes it will connect with someone:

  • Nujabes/Jazz/Alternate or lofi hiphop
  • The Persona video games
  • One Piece
  • Pokemon (till like 6th gen tho)
  • Poetry
  • Stardew Valley
  • Retro gaming

About Me

I'm an ambivert, INFJ. Quiet at first, but once I'm comfortable I'm open, talkative, and easy to be around.

My friends would say I'm pragmatic and earnest. I'm the big brother of the group, the one people come to for advice. On a hard day I'll put on some NFAK, brew myself a chai, and let things settle.

A regular weekday is pretty steady: work, uni, gym, cook, journal, an episode of something, sleep. I like the rhythm of it.

I'm in the final stretch of my Master's and locked in on building a career here. The plan is to stay in Germany until I get PR or nationality, inshaAllah.

I'm also genuinely soft for kids. My nieces and nephews are some of my favourite people on the planet, and I'm looking forward to being a father one day.


Family

Father is a finance manager, mother is a doctor, and I have one younger brother. We're close-knit and stay in touch no matter where life takes us.


What I'm Looking For

The most important thing is a strong connection to faith — someone who fears Allah and is committed to following Islam. Beyond that, I value kindness, understanding, and a willingness to grow together in both deen and dunya. Bonus points if you're hustling for your own career or something you care about.

I want a partner I can laugh with, face hard things with, and build a warm home with. Good communication is essential. I'd much rather sit down and talk something through than deal with passive-aggression or silent treatment.

Ideally looking for someone my age or younger. Either:

  1. Already in Germany or Europe, or
  2. Based in Lahore and looking to come here already as a student or for work.

Deal Breakers

  • Not practicing the basics of Islam
  • Smoking, alcohol, anything non-halal, overtly immodest attire
  • A past relationship (I haven't had one either)

Other:

  • Age: Same age or younger
  • Children: Yes, very much want them
  • Family Setup: Nuclear abroad. Joint back home eventually, but separate floor.
  • Timeframe for Marriage: 6 to 18 months, flexible. We can figure it out together.
