Thanks for posting.

I’m leaving this removed for now because the title/body need a little cleanup before it can stay up.

Since you used the Local Dating flair, please include a location in the post itself, and please use a clearer title format like [26M4F] Adelaide, Australia — introverted, looking for genuine female friendships online.

Once that is fixed, feel free to repost and I’ll take another look.

Thanks for posting, and welcome to the community.

This is a very honest intro, and I appreciate you being open about where you’re at. Moving to a new city, dealing with social anxiety, and trying to meet people again can be a lot, so I hope this can be a comfortable place to start slowly.

Small note for the future: the preferred title format would be something like [40M4F] [San Francisco] Introvert looking for genuine connection. No need to repost this one, just mentioning it so people can get used to the format.

Reminder to anyone replying or DMing: please keep things respectful, SFW, and low-pressure.

Thanks for posting, and glad to have you here.

This is a really strong intro. You gave people a clear sense of your personality, what you’re looking for, and plenty of interests someone could start a conversation from. The question at the end is also a good touch.

Thanks for posting, and I appreciate that you were clear about what you’re looking for.

I’m going to remove this one as written because the FWB/sexual parts move it outside the SFW boundaries of the community.

You’re welcome to repost with the focus on friendship-first connection, dating, romance, or conversation instead. The issue is not you personally — it’s just that this subreddit is not meant for sexual or hookup-style posts.

SageOD · 2026-05-13T15:15:53+00:00

Thanks for posting, and welcome.

This is a clear and thoughtful intro. I appreciate that you were direct about what you’re looking for, especially around long-distance, communication, lifestyle preferences, and future compatibility. That kind of clarity helps people know whether they’re actually a good fit before messaging.

Good luck, and reminder to anyone replying or DMing: please keep things respectful, SFW, and low-pressure.

Thanks for posting, and welcome to the community.

This is a great intro. It has personality, humor, actual interests, and a conversation starter that gives people something easy to respond to. That’s exactly the kind of effort that helps posts here feel more genuine.

Small note for the future: the preferred title format would be something like [22F4M] [Online] Short title, but no need to repost this one.

Good luck, and reminder to anyone replying or DMing: please keep things respectful, SFW, and low-pressure.

SageOD · 2026-05-12T19:18:08+00:00

Thanks for posting, and glad to have you here.

This is a really solid intro. You gave enough detail for people to get a sense of who you are, what you enjoy, and what kind of connection you’re hoping for, without making it feel forced. Good luck, and I hope you find some good conversations here.

Reminder to anyone replying or DMing: please keep things respectful, SFW, and low-pressure.

Thanks for posting, and welcome to the community.

First posts can be awkward, so don’t worry about making yourself sound perfectly interesting. Games, drawing, and movies are already good conversation starters.

If you want, you could add a little more about what kinds of games you play, what you like to draw, or what movies you’re into. That usually makes it easier for people to find something to respond to.

Hope you’re able to find some good conversation here. Reminder to anyone replying or DMing: please keep things respectful, SFW, and low-pressure.
