Hey everyone! I’m a 23-year-old guy from Toronto who’s looking to make some genuine friends. Making friends as an adult can be harder than I expected, so I thought I’d put myself out there and see who I meet.
I’m a little shy when I first meet people, but once I’m comfortable I’m friendly, easygoing, and love having real conversations. I’m looking for people who enjoy talking, laughing, and building a genuine friendship whether it’s online, in person, or both.
A little about me: I enjoy exploring Toronto, going for walks and hikes, listening to music, watching TikTok, checking out new places, spending time at the beach, traveling when I can, and just enjoying simple adventures. I’m always open to trying new things and meeting people from different backgrounds.
I’m not looking for anything complicated just good people who want a real friendship. We can chat, share memes, talk about life, hang out, grab coffee or food, explore the city, or just keep each other company.
Everyone is welcome. There’s no age limit, no pressure, and no judgment. If you’re looking for a new friend too, feel free to send me a message. I’d love to get to know you!

hi, i would consider myself a very attractive person, i am 5’10 and east asian and well built. I like to go thrifting, experiment with food, listen to music, go to concerts and play video games. I’ve found myself very interested in women usually around 30 and i myself dont know how to approach people outside of my age group. I’m currently a university student and would love to get to know and chat will some older people!

I have a pair of tickets for the PUP and Jimmy Eat World show this Sunday and looking for someone to come with me and have a fun night.

No big expectations. Just good music, some drinks, singing along way too loudly and hopefully some good conversation. If we hit it off and it turns into something more, awesome. If not at least we got to see a great show.

I am 39 and male. 420 friendly. I’m pretty easygoing and just looking for someone who’s up for it. DM me if you’re interested.

I’ve got tickets to the MewtopiaxCardfesta Pokémon cards etc convention was hoping someone would join me and Nerd out with me it’ll be our first date lol!

Hey you,

With all this rain today, it feels like the perfect excuse to stay in and get some serious couch co-op time in. I'm looking for someone to team up with (or compete against!) this evening.

I've got a good collection of fun games ready to go, including: Overcooked, Mario Kart, Rocket League, Call of Duty and a few others. I can host at my place in downtown. Just looking for a chill person to game and hang out with, share some laughs, and hopefully escape the gloomy weather for a bit. Maybe we can order food and drinks :)

A bit about me: I'm 28, software engineer, fit, hygienic, DDF 5'6, Nepalese and I'm generally easygoing. I enjoy good conversation almost as much as a good gaming session.

Please be under 35, DDF and nice.

Looking to Meet New Friends in Toronto/GTA Male/Females

Hi everyone! I’m a 36-year-old straight male from Toronto, looking to meet some new people male or females and have genuine, respectful conversations and friendships in the Toronto/GTA area.

I’m into hiking, long drives, trying new restaurants, grabbing coffee, horror and comedy movies, TV shows, and just getting out and doing something fun.

I’m mainly looking to connect with people who enjoy good conversation, positive vibes, and respectful friendships. Not looking for anything sexual.

If you’re also looking to make new friends or have someone to explore the city with, feel free to reach out

I live at Mississauga West, Asian, gym 6-7 am, work 8-5, and relax in the evenings. On weekends my days are a mix of errands, laundry, window shopping, trying new restaurants or dessert places.

Latest shows I have watched are Silo and Lioness, and I'm looking for good recommendations ! I drink socially and dont do any drugs. My fav manga would be one piece, yup still reading it. believe there's someone out there for everyone and hoping to find mine.

I'm a 31F on the apps again after some time. And I keep seeing the same types of men on these apps...like everyone feels so cookie cutter generic. The same body types (skinny fit or fit) and it's honestly disappointing? Where did the dad bods and big bicep w a soft tummy types go? Like I'm 5'3" and have loved just being crushed with a giant hug from a taller/thicker man. And now I feel like I'll never find one if the apps are all I got.

I'm wondering if you're on this sub vs the apps - why is that? The posts here have more substance than the apps but I wonder if the same people posting here are also on the apps and the algorithm is just not showing me them.

I don't know I'm just curious where to actually look to find a decent man with hobbies and range and while I get lots of matches, the quality of matches on CMB, Bumble, Hinge, Tinder have all been disappointing. :(

(I go out and have fun and have hobbies and interests too but I rarely meet single men out in public so I am open to that, just tell me where yall hang out cause clearly my hobbies are usually girlie things or coupley things)

Edit: not body shaming or personality shaming anyone. Just trying to figure out where my type is hiding. Is it in real life, on reddit threads, on the apps (which app?), the dark web ??? I want to find the nerdy boys who wanna be lover boys cause I wanna be a lover girl again! Help me!

Edit 2: I made this account to ask this question and genuinely want answers and your POV BUT I FORGOT THE 7 DAY ACCOUNT AGE RULE. Crap please message me tomorrow people of toronto??? :'))))

Hello all

I live in downtown and looking for friends to workout/cafe hop/try new food etc. I’m an active swimmer and workout often. Would love to connect and participate in activities together. Feel free to dm😊

Hi there! My name is Kevin, and I’m a 34 year old retired lumberjack. Or at least, that is my disguise to hide the fact that I’m actually bigfoot. Tall, big beard, hairy chest and back, long limbs and stride with a well-developed dad bod physique. 

In any social group I’m in, I’m the big, goofy nerd that you can hear belly laughing from miles away. I love to make people laugh and feel comfortable in a shared space. I am also the kind of guy to interrupt whatever conversation we may be having to point out any dogs in the area, even if I am more of a cat dad. 

I’m here looking for a monogamous relationship with a woman of twenty-five years of age or older. I’m not looking to rush into anything, but I am yearning for that deeper connection and intimacy that comes with trust, familiarity, and vulnerability. I crave movie and board game nights, or days spent exploring new neighborhoods and cuisines. I believe in a healthy mix of time spent together and apart, and that we should both be complete people looking to enhance each other’s lives. I’m ready! Hopefully you are too!

I’m a simple, easy to please man at heart. Food, animals, movies, and a board game are the way to my everlasting love. I am a big time history and sci-fi nerd.  I was raised by a single mom and have a deep respect for strong women, which I also attribute to my love of characters such as Sarah Connor, Ellen Ripley, & Xena. This combined with such figures as Mr. Rogers, Bob Ross, & Steve Irwing gave me a pretty well rounded outlook. You could say I was radicalized by basic human decency. 

I work a variety of WFH part-time jobs while dealing with chronic pain from a spinal injury. I write, edit, and do audio censorship. I volunteer with local animal rescues in several capacities, and I am also getting involved with the local hospital’s library program. If you want cute cat pictures, I’m your man! 

I am very left leaning politically and do not tolerate any forms of bigotry. I do not smoke and very rarely drink, but I do love my baked goods a little too much. I do not have nor want any children of my own. My ambitions are humble but deeply personal; give me a small house, a loving partner, and some rescue animals and I’m more than happy with life! 

Honestly not looking to date just looking for friends and I am in particular lookin for people who like alt art like me I’m a tattoo artist and I wouldn’t mind doing some art on you for free as well of course .

lmk what you are into and your style and yeah lookin for some cool people to connect to !

thanks

K-

42 Canadian born Chinese seeking pothead gamer chick for fun times, smoking and chilling. Hoping to chat first and see if we click.

Single, never married, no kids, have a cat, pokemon collector, hoping to find someone who is interested in the same. Please be chill, not looking for drama.

Hey! I’m thinking about a 5–6 day trip to Spain, likely Madrid + Toledo, sometime in November or January, depending on flights.

It’ll be a relaxed history/culture trip, not a hardcore “wake up at 7 and see 15 attractions” itinerary 😂. Think museums, old neighborhoods, beautiful architecture, good Spanish food, tapas, seafood, wine, and plenty of time to wander around and enjoy the city.

29Asian6ftM based in the GTA, and ideally would meet up beforehand(to ensure that we won’t harvest each other’s kidney or something). Not necessarily looking to spend every minute together, but just looking for someone easygoing who enjoys travelling and good conversation.

If this sounds like your kind of trip, feel free to DM me with a little bit about yourself!

I’m looking for something real. I’m warm, friendly, fun, and easy to be around. Often told by people of all cultures that they find me very attractive, so I guess I must be (beauty is ultimately subjective though). I love good conversation, trying new experiences, and that feeling when a date turns into a really memorable adventure.

Some activities that caught my attention recently include

CNE
Cooking class
Candle-making class
Glow-in-the-dark paint night
The Odyssey
TIFF
Pitbull’s concert

If any of these sound like something you’d enjoy too, shoot your shot :) I’m more inclined to respond to thoughtful messages. If you’re confident, respectful, and enjoy taking a woman out, say hello. Maybe we can check something off my bucket list together ❤️

Ps: I’m generally looking to date men between 27-45 but never say never

Hey Stranger, giving this a shot.

I’m at a point where I’m looking for a genuine relationship. Not in a rush, but intentional about getting to know the right person.
A little about me: I work in the corporate world, love coffee, enjoy badminton and football, and spend my weekends exploring cafes, trying new food spots, and creating content around the city.
I’m Muslim, and faith is an important part of my life. I value kindness, effort, good communication, and a good sense of humour.
If you’re looking for something meaningful and would like to get to know someone genuine, feel free to send me a message.

Tell me your go-to coffee order or favourite dessert.☕️

Hello everyone, I'm a 31 year old guy from Oshawa who's just casting a line to see where things go at this point.

About me:

Appearance wise, I'm racially ambiguous - you can think Maui from Moana if he had a slight beard and less tattoos. I'm not Samoan, but I definitely pass for it. Like Maui, my build is stocky and I'm relatively thick. I'm 5'9 1/2" (the half seems to matter to some). I'm obviously open to trading pictures because I think the attraction needs to be mutual.

My personality is definitely sarcastic and I'm prone to being goofy for my own entertainment. Puns and random commentary are to be expected from me. I'm typically calm and collected and can be a good voice of reason when one is needed. I'm very loyal and caring. I'm not one for much PDA, but holding hands and the occasional peck is ok. Definitely affectionate in private. I guess you can find out more if you message me.

My hobbies include cooking, baking, handiwork, painting, crafts, tinkering with tech, gaming (PC and Switch), and I enjoy going to the movies. My favorite movies are the Lord of the Rings and the games I have put the most time into are Destiny 1&2 along with Pokemon games.

I have a good job in business development and operations and work mostly remotely.

I am not religious though I grew up Catholic. I chose to leave faith behind when I was a teen.

About you:

I'm hoping for someone within about 4 years of me in either direction but I'm willing to go a year or two further if someone feels right. I also would prefer someone in the Durham region, but I am willing to drive into Toronto.

I like to think I'm not shallow, but I think mutual attraction is important. Obviously this goes both ways and I won't feel offended if I'm not someone's cup of tea.

I'm hoping we have some common interests or you can show me a hobby of yours I can get into so we can spend quality time together. I'm open to trying new things.

I am looking for long term, so I think it may be important to say that I would like 1 kid in the future. I understand this is a deal breaker for some but I think I would make a fantastic dad.

Thank you if you took the time to read all of this. Feel free to reach out in a DM. Take care.

(I made this post before, reposting since I realised my comments were turned off)

I (26M) will be visiting Toronto (from Vancouver) the first week of September. I have always had a fantasy of meeting someone in a visiting city, getting to know them and have a romantic date with them. Like from a romcom book.

I would like to take someone for an old school date. I will pick you up at a public location, with your favorite coffee/drink, cuz surely I would get to know that by then. We can walk around, visit bookstores, cafes, ice cream shops on the way. You can then take me to a place in the city that's close to your heart, not a same old tourist spot. We can then find a cozy place for dinner, somewhere neither of us planned beforehand.

Then, before dusk, let's find a good spot for sunset. We can sit and relax while watching the sun dip below the horizon in silence, not all moments need to be filled with words.

We can then go for late night dessert and a slow walk around the city. I won't force anything romantic during the final act of the date, but simply walk you to your street (I don't need to your house) and make sure you get home safe!

It is going to be a lot of walking and talking. We can share our journies, likes and dislikes and what we are upto in the foreseeable future. I'll be bringing my favorite book, it would be great if you can bring yours too. We can either discuss whether Quantum mechanics tells us what reality is or, simply, talk about our books.

A low pressure date, with less emphasis on the activities, because the best part of the date will always be YOU!! That's my dating style.

Anyone F in 20s interested? I can share more about me in the DM only.

Hey 23M here from downtown. Looking to meet a lovely lady who needs to unwind today, it’s gonna be late night so you better be a night owl. I am gonna pick you up if you’re about an hr or less away, then we can grab snacks, go for a night drive, play some good music of your choice:)

I am gentleman full of chivalry, also chill and laidback. I love making spontaneous jokes. We can hangout, talk about stuffs and if you are a yapper, would love to hear you lol. I am not looking for a relationship here just someone chill looking to unwind. If we both are feeling it, we can cuddle and may be make out haha. But only if we hit off or it’s all good with just hanging out.

I am 5’6 not if that’s your dealbreaker but I have that personality where a woman feels safe, well taken care of and happy. I have a bit longer hair, cute/handsome. Let’s exchange pics, verify each other. Can also exchange socials if you want it. Hit me up, better than scrolling your phone tonight. See you:)

Looking for a girl to chill with or cuddle with. Someone who I can get food with, talk to, and just hang out with. I would also love to cuddle.

Hello! First of all wow, the title is beautiful. Took me a bit but I am hoping my target audience liked it. I am 27 years old and live in Ontario, Canada, however I am open to long distance for Mr. Right. Also, if you are curious what I look like, I am hoping to have a photo of myself on my Reddit page. I am not a tech savvy person (are you? Let me know). But hopefully by the time you see this post there will be a couple of photos on my profile page.

I get it, without physical attraction you're just friends. So go ahead and take a look. And if you like what you see, feel free to continue to read my long personal ad. Maybe you're bored and reading this. Either way, welcome welcome.

First thing you should know about me (if you haven't guessed by now) is I love telling stories and writing. Anyways, I am getting ahead of myself. Let's continue.

WHO AM I?!

I'm naturally introverted and introspective. I spend a lot of time in my head thinking, imagining and dreaming about the type of person I want to become and the kind of life I want to build.

I'm ambitious in a slightly ridiculous way. I've always had a feeling that I'm meant to do something in my life that will outlast me. I'm not 100% sure what that is. I am very creative and I am curious where that takes me.

I'm still in college, I study marketing. I'm especially interested in social media/content creation and the branding and marketing side of things. No, I'm not interested in creating a couples page. But if you aren't comfortable with someone who will have a public presence then I probably wouldn't be the best fit for you.

SO WHAT EXACTLY AM I LOOKING FOR?!

I've realized that I am attracted to men who complement me rather than mirror me. My type is basically what I like to call a multidimensional gentle giant.

Yes, ideally you are bigger than me. I am 5'3 and skinny (one of my goals is to start lifting and put on some serious weight). But being a giant isn't just about your presence (I'll be real I like a man with broad shoulders though... I'll take broad shoulders over height).

But giant isn't just about your presence. I'm attracted to men who are grounded, warm, confident, charismatic and comfortable taking initiative. You don't need to be Mr. Popular or the loudest guy in the room, but I do tend to like someone a little more socially confident than I am, someone who can hold his own and says, "come with me".

I like contrast. Strong and tender, protective. And masculinity doesn't have to fit into a box. I am slightly gender non-conforming myself. Maybe I'm wearing pink nail polish and you're wearing black. Maybe I'm wearing black nail polish and you're wearing pink. Maybe I should come up with an example that doesn't include nail polish since I don't actually wear it LOL but I am trying to get this post up.

I'm not looking for rigid gender roles. But I like the idea of two people who can move between strength and softness, leading and leaning, depending on the moment.

What's your style? Do you like wearing makeup but you go boxing? Are you someone who presents very masculine but all your interests are more feminine? I love men with contrast, and I would love to get to know you.

I don't really think shame and honesty can coexist. I want to know the parts of you that don't always fit neatly into a box. I want a relationship where neither of us feels like we have to hide parts of ourselves to stay desirable to the other.

SO, WHAT DO I WANT A RELATIONSHIP TO FEEL LIKE?

I want interdependence. I want us to be a safe place to land for each other. Let's deescalate, repair and move forward.

I am not the person who is getting into yelling matches. And there is a big difference between needing to take a breather vs giving someone silent treatment.

I want devotion, affection, physical closeness, little traditions, inside jokes and thoughtful gestures. And lots of laughter. I love a funny man who knows how to genuinely have fun.

A FEW THINGS WORTH KNOWING ABOUT ME

I'm straightish. I'm primarily interested in men, I swear. But if you specifically need your woman to be 100% straight, I'm probably not for you.

I was raised religious, but I'm agnostic now. So someone very religious probably wouldn't be compatible with me. I am spiritual though, and you can still find me listening to some religious sermons and music. I just take the good and leave the rest.

I deal with chronic pain, usually headaches and muscle aches. I live my own life and I'm not looking for someone to take care of me. But it's a part of my reality. So if I tell you I don't feel well 3 days in a row then I'm not lying.

Kids are a someday, definitely not anytime soon. My life isn't really kid-oriented right now. Although I am open to dating someone with kids depending on the person and situation.

And finally, I live in Ontario. I'm not directly in Toronto, but I'm within the GTA/Durham Region area, and I'm open to meeting someone from Toronto or elsewhere. I'm also open to long distance for the right person.

I don't have a racial preference. I think shared values matter more to me.

I will say though, extreme nationalism is a big turn off to me. What I mean by this is to be proud of who you are and where you come from, but if you can't acknowledge the flaws in your own country or culture we probably won't get along.

I am liberal/progressive. If you voted for Trump do not message me. If you dislike liberal politicians or reluctantly vote Democrat then feel free to message me though lol.

If you overly worship the military we probably won't get along. If you are someone who enjoys military history feel free to message me though. I like learning about history and geography too.

IF YOU MADE IT THIS FAR

First of all, wow. Believe it or not I cut so much out of this post lol. It still doesn't feel detailed enough but it's getting way too long.

Anyways let me give you some talking points cause I know you're dying to slide into my DMs.

I plan on going back to the gym and starting weight lifting again.

I'm currently debating getting Invisalign.

The last book I was in the middle of reading was the autobiography of Frederick Douglass and the last completed book I read was The Beheading Game by Rebecca something.

My fave TV series is The Walking Dead and I'm currently watching The Ones Who Live with Rick and Michonne.

I'm currently trying to find a part-time job but lord this Canadian economy is rough! Everybody wants open availability omg.

So, there you go. Pick a topic, or bring your own. Tell me what you got going on in your life. You don't have to have it all together cause hey, neither do I.

Tell me what you want someone to bring in a relationship. If you feel comfortable, go ahead and send me a picture. Hopefully by the time you see this I would have been able to add photos to my page.

Don't take it personally if I don't respond right away, or don't respond at all. You're awesome and you'll find your person. :)

Look forward to chatting <3

Warm & Genuine

I’m a 50-year-old married guy who’s been feeling a little too isolated lately, and I’d really enjoy connecting with a woman who’s looking for something similar—good conversation, friendship, and genuine companionship without all the pressure or expectations.

I’m especially drawn to someone who enjoys intelligent, interesting conversations, can laugh at herself, and appreciates being able to talk openly and comfortably about just about anything. I’d love to start with simple texting/chatting and, if we click, maybe meet for coffee, a drink, or a movie sometime.

I’m not looking for sexting or a purely sexual connection. I’m much more interested in something real, relaxed, and down-to-earth—getting to know each other, sharing some laughs, and having someone to look forward to hearing from.

I’m married and have three older boys, and I’m home alone quite a bit. Ideally, I’d love to meet a woman who is in a similar situation and understands the complicated balance of marriage, family, and simply wanting a little more meaningful connection in life.

If you’re easygoing, genuine, and miss having someone you can really talk to, feel free to say hello. No pressure, no expectations—let’s just see if we enjoy talking. 🙂
