I'm looking for serious relationship

Iโ€™m happiest when life feels meaningful and calm. I get excited by deep conversations, learning something new, and moments that bring people closer together. Simple things make me happyโ€”sharing a good coffee, laughter with family or friends, prayer and quiet reflection, traveling and discovering new places, and feeling appreciated for who I truly am. I value sincerity, kindness, and emotional connection, and I believe joy grows when itโ€™s shared with the right person.

    This is actually my first time trying out an online dating site, so it all feels a bit strange and unfamiliar to me. Please forgive any awkwardnessโ€”especially in how I express myself. My son helped me set up my profile, so Iโ€™m still getting the hang of everything.

    Iโ€™d love to learn more about you. Maybe you could tell me a little about yourself? If things go well, I'd be open to meeting.

    Feel free to reach out (email address removed by moderator)

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

    Finding love and a serious relationship has never been easy and I think the modern world has made it harder as so much has disappeared online rather than in person and relies on apps rather than friends/pubs/clubs etc or meeting through clubs or societies. It has certainly passed me by but that is more than likely to do with my mental health. It certainly sounds as though you are starting from a great place and have a solid foundation on which to build a serious relationship. It is refreshing to hear someone concentrating on positives rather than list all the things they dislike. you sound like a really positive person and I hope that you do find love.

    I notice you say you like prayer. What faith are you? There are faith based dating sites.

    Hi @robertoballen and a warm welcome to the community from me!

    This isn't an online dating website but you can still get involved in some light hearted friendly chats with other members. Coffee lounge is a good place to start๐Ÿ˜Š

    "Online dating site"!!!!

    Please pardon me and I'm not mocking anyone, but that's funny!

    Such sites probably exist but here we're into conversation.

    Dating Site ๐Ÿคฎ

    I hate to break it to you but this is certainly not a dating website. Also goodluck with dating sites as most are either full of bots or rip you off. The only way to truly meet someone is by naturally meeting someone either through the real world or through a passion like gaming or something.

    Relationships are on a global decline, for 50 years now, according to stats. Here's a really interesting, quick close-up look at this trend, on a recent podcast by The Economist:

    @StarryEyed hi im Emily and im 31 while I am aware that this is not a dating site at all. I am looking for the same thing. Being single is no fun especially when you've got health issues and you think the worlds gone against you in that department. Ive been single for years now dont ask me how many too many years to count, I hate tne thought of spending the rest of my life without that special someone with the same type of condition as me. I dont believe in dating sites because they say there are free but actually have a look you have to pay a monthly fee. But hey thats just my opinion! @pooleemily29 ๐Ÿ˜€

    I have never thought it was, but I suppose it's only natural amoungst such a large community, many of us long term single, that some will attempt to reach out.

    it is very difficult for looking someone and it is hard online I do understand that and it is frustrating

    If you do go on online dating, avoid plenty of fish. I have been watching a series on netflix that scammers target vunerable people into romance and then scamming money from them

    What do people even mean by "I'm looking for serious relationship"?

    Is it companionship you're after or regular sex? A cook/cleaner/step-parent? Sponsorship or someone to attend uni lectures with? Lots of babies or deep and meaningful discussions? Most people know what they want but fail to spell it out.

    Sitting at home staring at a screen is not where to find the love of your life!
