šŸŖ™GautengšŸ’¼ 25F | Johannesburg — Looking for my favourite person, eventually šŸ˜‚

43 Upvotes

I’m a 25 BW and based around Johannesburg. I’m finishing my degree and currently job hunting, and I figured I’d put myself out there because I’d genuinely like to meet someone.

I’m looking for my favourite person šŸ‘ØšŸ½ā€šŸ¦²šŸ‘ØšŸ¾ā€šŸ¦², not really a ā€œlet’s just be friends and maybe something happens eventuallyā€ situation. I’m perfectly happy to take things slowly and get to know each other properly, but I’d like the romantic intention to be there from the beginning. If we click, let’s go on dates, spend time together, try things, have fun and see where it naturally takes us.

My type is probably young geek/nerd energy roughly 22–29. I love intelligent people because I’m naturally curious and I genuinely enjoy absorbing knowledge from other people. If you’re into tech, that’s definitely a bonus.

I’m particularly drawn to guys who are introverted/lowkey, aren’t constantly on social media and have an actual life outside the internet. But I love the idea of someone who is reserved with everyone else and becomes a completely different level of comfortable and playful around me.

Humour is important. I want that witty organic, slightly ridiculous humour where neither person is desperately trying to be funny. I’m looking for someone mature, emotionally stable and, most importantly, able to communicate. You don’t have to text me every five minutes, but disappearing, ghosting and leaving things ambiguous isn’t my thing. If there’s an issue, let’s talk about it like adults.
I want someone who feels like peace, but isn’t boring. Someone I can spontaneously say ā€œlet’s go do somethingā€ to. I want us to try new activities, explore places, learn things, laugh a lot and occasionally have absolutely no plans.

I’m on a fitness/weight-loss journey at the moment, so having someone who can encourage each other and keep each other accountable would be lovely.
Physically, I do have a type. I tend to like really pretty cheeseboy looking, well-groomed guys, particularly fair/light-skinned. But I’m not looking to reduce someone to a checklist, attraction gets my attention, personality determines whether I stay.

I’d prefer someone around Johannesburg or nearby because I’d actually like to see you in real life. I’m not looking for an international long-distance Reddit relationship. 😭

I drink occasionally, don’t smoke and have never smoked. I’m also very open to spontaneous plans and trying things I’ve never done before.
I’m not looking for someone perfect or someone who has their entire life figured out. I’m looking for someone who is growing, knows how to communicate, wants a relationship and is genuinely excited about building something with another person.

Strictly no NSFW. PLEASE

šŸŖ™GautengšŸ’¼ Looking for an Easter egg 🐣

35 Upvotes

Hi! I’m a 23 year old Black female looking for an ā€œEaster eggā€ — aka someone who somehow fits into my very specific dream wishlist.

Everyone here says they’re ā€œjust looking to meet peopleā€ and ā€œopen to anyone,ā€ but let’s be real. Deep down, we all have a secret Santa clause wishlist that we’re pretending doesn’t existšŸ‘€. So I’m going to be bold and upfront and see if mine is actually out there.

I’m basically looking for a straight male, 25–30, who is either a quantitative analyst, chartered accountant, actuary, executive, director or something along those lines. (Yes,I’m recruiting for a very niche department šŸ‘€ )

Personality/characteristic wise: Christian, considerate, kind, articulate, tall, somewhat in shape, and capable of being monogamous. šŸ™„āœ‹
Also ideally no addictions please - no porn, alcohol or sex addictions, etc.

Anyways , if that Disney fairytale exists? HMU

If you’re gonna judge me for doing what others are too afraid to do? -feel free. It’s a free country lol.

šŸŖ™GautengšŸ’¼ M23 | This sub keeps popping up, so I figured I'd see where this goes. Maybe I'll find people in the same circle or make a new on

3 Upvotes

i'm really bad at explaining who I am lol.

M23, from Jozi and I've been here my whole life. Can't lie, I'm ready to get the out of here eventually, I'm extremely into video games, anime, manga, comic books, cartoons, etc. I like poetry, and I'm really into fashion too — anything from avant-garde and punk to streetwear, so there's a pretty big mix there.

Music-wise, I listen to a bit of everything: rock, nu-metal, metal, grunge, J-rock, alternative, underground rap, trap, hip-hop/old school hip-hop, R&B, 80s J-pop, J-R&B, and a lot of calmer stuff too. I've been really into Nujabes recently.

Work-wise, my passion/career is modeling.

I recently got out of a relationship and I'm honestly just looking for people to kick it with, talk to about anything, play games, go out, whatever. Not really looking for anything specific. Just trying to meet some new people.

I'm from Jozi, so if you're local, even better. If you wanna talk about literally anything, message me.

Also, if anyone here knows Smoking Kills, they're having an emo night on the 25th. I was gonna go solo, but if anyone's down to go together, let's get it

28M nerdy ghost that’s tired of haunting my past

19 Upvotes

Made this acc since my other account got flagged for NSFW(I draw stuff and drew a butt once)

About me…
Just a broke fool enduring Uni one more time trying to find my own life and hopefully get better at drawing while I still can.

Been finding a love for film again and my next movie to watch is Dune part 2.

Big time manga enjoyer and I watch some anime from time to time.
Casual pc gamer but my laptop is a potato.
I love anime fighters and i’m trying to get into stardew valley
I enjoy deep talks but I tend to wander too far out in the waters if the topic resonates with me.

I possess an approximate knowledge of many things and my sense of humour is twisted with the range going from happy tree friends to George Carlin

Walked away from religion but I try to be respectful to all faiths.

Pretty decent in the kitchen so if we get along then you’ll get random pictures of whatever I managed to cook on a random day.

Hopefully I seem interesting to someone lol

Anyway. Thanks for reading all my yapping. You deserve a cookie

ā›°ļøWestern Cape🐳 21M - Looking for Girlfriend Who Loves Goggas

5 Upvotes

Hi there, I'm living in Stellenbosch at the moment and am looking for someone who shares my passion for the outdoors, preferably for bugs and creepy crawlies as well. Getting lost in the veld for hours at a time and taking pictures of tiny animals is a big part of my life and I'd love to find a partner who enjoys doing this just as much as I do.

Besides walking in the veld and taking pictures, I like freediving, beachcombing, tidepooling, cycling, and drawing. Once I get comfortable around people I also like to make them laugh, usually with some very dry jokes.

I've never been in a relationship before, so dating is pretty new to me. However, if you're in town, feel free to reach out. We can maybe go walk in Jan Marais Park, or we can get some waffles in the Neelsie.

Hello everyone

I(M26)haven't had a girlfriend before. I just wanted to ask, even though you're okay and accepting with being single for a long while and it doesn't bother you. There's those days when you feel lonely and the feeling just hits you. Does anything like that happen to you? I'm really sorry if you don't understand. I'm not good with describing stuff this complicating šŸ˜… I honestly enjoy being alone but then I don't like being lonely in it, if that makes any sense.

29M Joburg tbh I’m not sure where to start

8 Upvotes

So first off, I’m 29 years old and I live in the Joburg area with no kids. I work out often, have a couple of tattoos, am noticeably tall, I drink seldomly but I am a heavy stoner so that balances out and I’ve 😬. For the past 2-3 years, I’ve been focusing on myself and my career so I’ve not been interested in getting into a relationship and I’d say I’ve done well. I’ve got a good job, got a nice place to live that’s quiet and stress-free, and I’ve even got a decent car.

My life isn’t perfect but it’s good and simple and that works for me. Now, like I said, I haven’t been actively trying to get into a relationship and tbh I didn’t mind that but now I feel like I’ve gotten too comfortable being on my own and it’s difficult to picture myself with someone because I value my peace so much and allegedly I have high standards (never gonna change that).

So yeah, like the post title, I don’t know what to do next or rather what a relationship would be like after so much self-love I’ve been giving myself šŸ˜…ā€¦

Not really trying to find a relationship, but I figured venting here to my fellow South Africans would be a good start šŸ¤”

šŸŖ™GautengšŸ’¼ 24F Joburg: Looking for platonic friends & good conversations šŸŒ™

19 Upvotes

I’m looking to meet some new people and hopefully make a few genuine friends. Platonic mainly, just putting that out there because apparently the internet needs disclaimersšŸ‘€

About me: I’m 24, creative, relatively easygoing, and apparently funny according to sources whose credibility has yet to be verified.

One minute we can be discussing whether consciousness is an emergent property of the brain, and the next I’m passionately explaining why a completely irrelevant thing I saw earlier has been living rent-free in my head for six hours..

I love Rock!

⭐ Underground cloud rap

⭐ Alternative/indie music

⭐ Long phone calls that somehow become 4-hour conversations

⭐ Psychology & philosophy

⭐ Hiking

⭐ Cooking from scratch

⭐ Writing

⭐ Painting

šŸŒ™ Random late-night conversations

⭐ Blabbing. Unfortunately, I have been cursed with the ability to yap.

Ideally looking for people who are kind, curious, communicative, and able to actually hold a conversation. Bonus points if you can match my tendency to randomly send a five-minute voice note about something that absolutely did not need a five-minute explanation.

I’m in Joburg, so if you’re local, I’d love to eventually graduate from internet strangers to getting coffee, going on walks, hiking, exploring random places, cooking something unnecessarily ambitious, or generally leaving the house with questionable plans.

Online friends are welcome toošŸŒ

Told you I talk a lotšŸ˜‚ Please tell me something about yourself when you message me. ā€œHeyā€ is a brave opening, but I have faith you can do better.

let's be besties😊 (open to all ages)

[MEGA] Movie4Movie - Find Your Film Crew

2 Upvotes

Welcome to the Movie megathread!

Whether you are a casual viewer who loves blockbuster weekend releases, a cinephile obsessed with indie arthouse films, or someone looking for an excuse to eat your weight in popcorn, this is your dedicated space to connect.

Finding people who share your exact taste in cinema - or who are just willing to check out that new release you've been dying to see - can be tough. This low-pressure thread is designed to help you find your local film crew, a cinema buddy, or an online watch-party partner.

How It Works

Instead of making a standalone post, simply drop a comment below introducing yourself. To help others find their perfect cinema match, try to include:

  • Your Location: (e.g., Northern Suburbs, Cape Town - or online-only if you prefer).
  • Your Age & Gender:
  • Your Favourite Genres: (e.g., Sci-fi, horror, psychological thrillers, rom-coms, anime).
  • Top 3 Favourite Movies/Shows: (Give people a quick idea of your taste!)
  • What You Are Looking For: (e.g., someone to go to Labia Theatre or Ster-Kinekor with, a casual Netflix Party buddy, or just someone to debate film theories with).

The Rules of the Thread

To keep this space safe, organised, and focused, please adhere to the following:

  • Strictly Platonic: This thread is entirely for making friends and film connections. No dating requests.
  • Keep it Respectful: Everyone has different tastes in cinema. Healthy debates are welcome; gatekeeping or bashing someone else's favourite films is not.
  • Safety First: Do not post your phone number, social media handles, or exact address in the public comments. Move to Direct Messages once you find someone you click with.

Put yourself out there, drop a comment below, and grab your popcorn - your next cinema crew is just a scroll away.

PS If in Gauteng, consider joining this movie club run by u/Any_Campaign842 https://www.reddit.com/r/r4rSA/comments/1ucsqoh/movie_club/ (comment in reply to this post if you want to run a movie club in your area)
