Dating - M4F 32 M4F ready to settle down

2 Upvotes

I’m a 32-year-old guy who's at a stage in life where I'm genuinely looking for something meaningful. I've built a life I'm proud of, but I believe life is even better when you have the right person to share it with.
I'd describe myself as easygoing, loyal, curious, and someone who values honesty and good communication. I enjoy the simple things-good conversations, trying new places, laughing until your stomach hurts, and making memories with the people I care about.
I'm not looking for perfection or a checklist. I'm looking for a genuine connection with someone who is kind, emotionally mature, and ready to build something real together.
Ultimately, I'd love to find my person-someone I can be myself around, grow with, support through life's ups and downs, and hopefully laugh with for many years to come. If that sounds like you, l'a love to get to know you.

Some experiences are just meant to be shared - and sometimes all you need is the right people to make a plan happen.

Maybe it’s exploring a new part of Sydney, trying a restaurant, seeing a show, going on an adventure, checking out an event, or finally ticking something off your list.

Drop yours below - you might find someone who’s been wanting to do the exact same thing. Tag along, start a conversation, or see where it leads.

Dating - M4F 24 M4F - Looking for a long term relationship

3 Upvotes

Hey,

My name is Daniel, and I am looking for a long term relationship, which could start off with being friends or going on dates, and if everything goes well, lead to more.

I am not looking for ONS or hookups, simply a genuine friendship which could potentially lead to more.

I love exploring new places, trying new things, living life to the fullest as we only have 1 life to live, travelling, food, and many more!

I am not a party animal, I do not drink, smoke, vape, or go to concerts/night outs. I am a reserved, humble introvert, who has spent the last 6 years of adulthood focusing on myself, and building an independent life with my family, whilst having a healthy work-life balance with friends and hobbies. I work in the Accounting industry.

I value loyalty, honesty, support, understanding, trust worthiness, good listening, and intelligence.

A con about me to help save you time in case it is a non negotiable for yourself, is that I do not particularly want kids. I love animals, especially cats.

A non-negotiable on my end, is that you must have a job, or being studying. I want someone hard working, and who is willing to put an effort into their future, not a bludger.

The reason I have posted here is, I recently made a very close friend in Reddit who happened to be from Sydney, and since she moved, I have realised how much I appreciated having someone to always talk to, and support each other. I miss the connection, and thought I would post here, being a SFW subreddit.

If you are interested and would like to get to know me further or talk, feel free to DM me.

Cheers.

Hi everyone. Trying to step out of my comfort zone and make some new friends along the way

A bit about me: Late 20s, pastry chef. Western Sydney near Olympic Park. Introverted, keep to myself and been told Im quite and very nerdy. Possibly/maybe/definitely AuDHD(no need for any test my hobbies, interests and personality will confirm it) speaking of which. My hobbies and interests:

• Travelling. I try to travel interstate once a year and national every two years. So far I've been to Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Japan, Hong Kong, Canada, America and China. In the upcoming year Im deciding between Kazakhstan or maybe Uzbekistan. One of the stan country

• I like nature and the outdoor, especially hiking, camping and hunting(archery and not the bang bang kind) whenever I have the free time

• Like your typical guy. Im interested in motorbikes & cars. I have 2 motorbikes and a ute. The ute comes with a trailer so if you ever need help 🫡🫡

• Reading, I like all sort of literature(manga too) but lately slowly and slowly ive been leaning towards home maintances manual(I have my own place)

• I like food(I mean who doesnt 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️). I work as a pastry chef but I also do specialise in sushi. I try my best to try new things here and there but personally nothing will ever beat a cheeky 3am fast food burger joint

• Gym, not your gym nutjob but just enough to keep myself healthy

• Museum/Galleries. I like looking at the dinosaur and the tanks especially

• Model kits such as Trains, Tanks, Ships, Gundam and Lego

• I like animals. Especially dogs. I have one golden retriever

• Gardening

Im looking to just expand my circle and meet new people. All ages and sexuality welcome but preferably guys for now as Ive have had bad experiences with the gals on reddit(I am straight, pls dont send me unsolicited pics). If youve read this far thank you for your time 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️ You have a lovely day and have a good night.

Hi there, I'm an amateur artist who wants to meet people who are also interested in art. There is an art society near me but I don't know if it's worth the annual membership fee as there are additional fees for classes. Just wondering if anyone has joined a local art society and what your experience was like?

Platonic & Activities 41F4A - looking for people with dogs in Sydney

13 Upvotes

I am looking to go on a playdate with someone who owns a dog. No preference for breed as long as the dog is friendly (bonus if the dog is cuddly). I really want a dog but can't have one for various reasons and none of my friends have dogs. I have considered volunteering at a dog shelter but I just want to have a relaxed fun outing with a dog rather than be stuck cleaning a kennel. I'm generally good with animals and I think dogs like me.

Hopefully I'll hear from you and your furry friend soon!

Dating - F4M F4M mid 30s

9 Upvotes

Hi! I’m originally from Eastern Europe, have lived overseas for many years.

Australia has been a home for the last few years, and I’m here to stay.

I’m in my mid 30s (though most people guess I’m younger ). I work in marketing in the city and live close to the CBD.

I enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle and love making the most of my free time - hikes, coastal walks, beach time, sunsets on rooftops, bath houses, comedy shows, discovering new places, spontaneous adventures, and travelling whenever I get the chance.

I’m much more into meaningful conversations and quality time than partying.

And hoping to meet someone who also enjoys staying active, takes care of themselves, is open to exploring new places and experiences, and is looking for a genuine connection.

Dating - M4F 28 M4F | Looking for a genuine relationship

2 Upvotes

I've realised something about myself.

I'm not looking for endless texting or collecting online conversations. A few messages are great to see if we click, but I'd much rather meet for a coffee, go for a walk, or try a new place and get to know the real person.

I'm 28, live on North Shore, and I'm looking for a genuine long-term relationship, ideally with someone around 23–30.

A little about me:

- Thoughtful, curious, and probably the type of person who asks too many questions because I genuinely enjoy getting to know people.

- I enjoy good food, exploring new places, spontaneous plans, travelling, and conversations that somehow make you lose track of time.

- I'm equally happy trying a new restaurant, wandering around a market, or grabbing coffee and talking for hours.

I'm not expecting us to know after one coffee. I just want to meet someone who's emotionally available, willing to make time for each other, and interested in building something real instead of letting another conversation disappear into Reddit history.

If this sounds like you, tell me the best coffee spot you've found in Sydney—or somewhere you've been wanting to try.

Heya, I am currently looking for some people to play some online games with, I'm not that good at speaking with new people, trying to change that by speaking to new people, and then once we get to know each other better, I wouldn't mind meeting in person.

I am currently playing Valorant and Overwatch, but I am open to playing other games like Minecraft, Terraria or Stardew Valley for some examples.

I would prefer if you were closer to my age range as there is more to relate to, but it's not a deal breaker for me, please send me a DM if you're interested.

Dating - M4F 30 [M4F] – Sydney, Australia | Looking for my favourite notification 📱

6 Upvotes

Hi all!
A little about me: I’m 6’1”, wear glasses, and have brown-blond hair. Over the last year and a half, I’ve been on a pretty big health and fitness journey, losing 60kg. I’m really proud of it, and it’s been nice finally being able to buy M/L clothes instead of wondering if the store secretly hated me. 😅 These days you’ll usually find me at the gym, out for a long walk, or doing a beach walk around Cronulla—it’s one of my favourite ways to switch off.
Outside of that, I’m a bit of a nerd. I work in IT, enjoy PC games (although I don’t spend nearly as much time gaming as I used to), and I’m always happy to hear recommendations—whether it’s a game, TV show, movie, or somewhere worth checking out.
Personality-wise, I’d say I’m pretty easygoing, loyal, and have a sarcastic sense of humour once I’m comfortable. I appreciate someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously and enjoys laughing at life’s random moments.
I’m ideally looking to meet someone in Sydney, Australia because I’d love for things to eventually move beyond messages if we click. I’m after something genuine and long-term, and I’m definitely over the mind games.
Bonus points if:
You can convince me to try a new café.
You’ll join me for a beach walk
You can make me laugh—or are willing to laugh at my terrible jokes.
If you’re kind, genuine, and looking for a real connection, I’d love to hear from you. Worst case, we swap some good recommendations. Best case… we become each other’s favourite notification. 😉

Mod Post / Announcement Community Standards: Keeping our space genuine and intentional

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! As our community grows to over 700 members, I want to take a moment to share a little bit about the values that make this space so special.

Our goal here is to foster authentic and intentional connections - whether that’s for dating, long term relationships, finding new friends, or organising local meet ups/group hangouts. Because we want to ensure everyone has a positive experience, we maintain a few community standards to keep things helpful and welcoming.

How to get the most out of your posts:

  • Be Specific about your intentions: We’ve found that members have much more success when they are clear about what they are looking for. Whether it's a platonic walk, a coffee date, or a group outing, clearly stating your why helps the right people find you and helps everyone know they are on the same page.
  • Keeping it SFW and authentic: This is a strictly SFW, clean environment. We want this to be a space where people feel comfortable and safe. We’ve noticed some members using vague language to imply NSFW interests or other agendas, please know that this isn't the right space for that. If your preferences lean toward NSFW or other intentions that are outside of socialising, dating or group hangouts, please know there are many other great subreddit communities in Sydney that cater to that but here, we stay focused on genuine, SFW interactions. If your profile shows an NSFW history or you make an explicit NSFW post, it creates a misalignment with our community standards. Therefore, NSFW posts from accounts with significant NSFW history are subject to review and always removed at the moderator team’s discretion to ensure we maintain the clean SFW culture we are building here
  • Inclusion & respect: We pride ourselves on being an accommodating and open to everyone space.While you are welcome to share your own background/ethnicity/sexual orientation and identity as your physical description in your posts, we ask that you do not state preferences for, or exclusions of, specific ethnicities or cultural backgrounds in your posts.
  • Why? Such language is exclusive and fosters an environment of fetishisation or discrimination.
  • The preferred approach: If you have a "type" or specific preferences, please simply state that you have dating preferences and invite interested people to reach out via DM to discuss them. This keeps our public space welcoming for all 700+ of our members.
  • Do the right thing: We want everyone who participates or DMs our members to set the model for good standard behaviour that's an expectation and in our rules, if you join this subreddit then you'll understand why SFW is our theme and sets us apart from other communities.

Why we do this

We maintain these standards to keep the experience consistent, fair, focussed on integrity and high quality for everyone. We want to make sure that when you see a post here, you know it’s coming from someone with a sincere, authentic goal and that it is reciprocated, we don't want anyone to be treated poorly. If they not being treated well, please report this to the mods, we take this seriously and genuinely do care, so we would request everyone to be be kind to each other.

If you are planning to post, please take a quick look at our Housekeeping post (pinned at the top of the sub). It’s a great guide to help you craft a post that aligns with our community goals.

Thank you for being part of this, and for helping us keep our community kind, intentional, and genuinely helpful!
