Also what sub was it from?

  3. I did, from a local sub. We met in a post regarding sex stuff. She later became the closest friend I’ve had and the closest I’ve come to dating someone. We exposed a lot of bad stuff about ourselves here, so she’s probably the only person who knows really fucked up shit about me. We were from neighboring cities, so we kept talking on other platforms including video calls. We met once and almost made out. It was basically the starter pack of a long-distance relationship, including the part where she found someone else and started dating and ghosted me.

  5. From my local R4R sub, got invited to be her date to a sex party. It was fun, we hooked up a handful of times afterwards, then went out separate ways.

  6. Yes, she answered to a personals (R4R) post that I’d made. It was for a very specific kink that I won’t get into, but suffice to say the fact that she responded was very exciting. We talked for a short while on Reddit, then on Snapchat, and then eventually she wanted to meet at a local beach. So reluctantly I tried to dress “Beachey” and I met her there, I say reluctantly because I thought the beach was kind of an awkward meeting place if you’re not there to swim.

    In short I can say I think I wasn’t her type. We had a pleasant enough conversation and we said, “Oh yeah we should do this again sometime”, but that never happened. I was bummed out because I definitely found her attractive and the kink scene where I live is basically nonexistent otherwise, but I realize I myself am not a 10/10 in the looks department per se, so…it is what it is. Her loss! Lol

  7. My boyfriend and I met off of a /r/childfree related sub for dating.

    My perspective is that I made one post looking for a relationship. I got maybe 70 responses, 50 of which were NSFW. 20 responses were earnest. Of the 20, I’d say 10-15 were too far away (I don’t like long distance).

    So I had 5-10 to genuinely consider. Some had weird comment histories or were just odd, or age wasn’t ideal.

    There were maybe 5 guys in the end that I had some back and forth with, and who were nice and polite and seemed to be looking for the same thing.

    A few things that set my now boyfriend apart… He matched the tone (and length lol) of my post. It showed me that he was putting genuine effort into it and that indicated to me that he was serious about relationship over something casual. So I implicitly trusted him more from the start, which helped me a lot since he’s the only person I’ve met online. We also had a lot of overlap in our relationship goals.

    He was also the most bold out of everyone who messaged me. Bold in a more, traditional-dating sense while being a gentleman all the while. He asked for a phone call after a couple days of chatting. He asked me on a real date almost immediately after (or during?) our phone call. He asked me for a second date when I got back home from the first date. I think that boldness is was really did it for him. It did make him more attractive, but it was more strategic than that, whether he intended it or not. I had other options/DMs and they continued to trickle in for weeks, but in my mind he was a real person and everyone else was just text on a screen. And then we just got along and I liked him, so I told him I wouldn’t be dating or talking to other guys to see where it went. I wanted to see if I liked him without comparing him to anyone else. In response he told me he’d delete dating apps.

    And then it just snowballed into a relationship. 6 months yesterday 🙃

    So for people wondering what subreddit this was, it was:

    – a subreddit only for real dating (not hook ups, they will literally ban you).

    – it’s only for childfree people. Not people who have kids and are finished, not people who are undecided. Kindly fuck off and find a different subreddit if you have or want kids

    – it’s a global subreddit. That considered, you might be at an advantage if you are open to online relationships or moving or are in or near a populated area.

    – the mods are fantastic so please follow the rules and don’t give them more work

    The subreddit is called Childfree 4 Childfree.

  8. How about we use this thread for that purpose? Who wants to meet random dudes? Let yourself be known below:

  9. Yes. I’ve posted on the childfree dating subreddit a few times since finding someone who doesn’t have or want kids is really tough in utah. Mostly found the usual flakey people, far away people, and a few scams. But I did end up meeting someone from a post I made early summer this year. Dated for nearly 2 months and everything seemed great until she abruptly cut things off. In the end it didn’t work out, but I can’t say anymore that literally nobody capable of being a functioning adult has given me a chance now, now there’s at least one who could manage a full time job load and a drivers license haha. I typed up a more detailed summary of how posting on that subreddit went in a recent reply to a comment on there if anyone is curious they can check my profile for the post.

  10. Ive never met someone from reddit in person but I would be cool with it, 33M in NYC looking for friends.
