th-emptyhearse Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Just what it says in the title. I like the idea of a qpr but am not really sure where to look, and am interested in hearing others' experiences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MulticulturalFarmer Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) I've used reddit for that type of stuff, maybe it would work for you? OkCupid and other traditional ways of dating hasn't really worked for me to be honest. It's easier to meet people on an online forum that has (established) communities with people like you.

Hm, I've never thought of using Reddit for such a thing, but I suppose that could make sense... I've heard 50/50 on OKCupid and nothing on Tinder. I've tried neither, but am also open to a QPR at some point, so I'm certainly curious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm yeah I guess it makes sense doing it within established communities, I'm just not sure there would be anyone near me :') Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvisibleSquid Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I was on Reddit last night, and it occurred to me that I haven't the foggiest idea how this sort of thing would work. Is there a specific community of people looking for people? I'm really only in a few different communities on Reddit, and am not sure how someone would meet someone on there and become friends. Maybe I'm Redditing wrong! ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acecream Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) @InvisibleSquid I never was on Reddit so unfortunately i can’t help you but this sounds like my social media problem in general; I know a lot of people who tell me how they met someone on a Forum/Instagram/Twitter/whatever who is now their best friend. And I just don’t get it. HOW. HOW does this work? Lol I’m totally not a shy person, when I’m in a room with someone I don’t know I just start to talk to them, but I have no idea how this works online so, when you solve the Reddit problem please let me know, I’d love to try it out?

They just reached out to me about a pin that they loved and then we started sharing pins. It was after 2 years of only sending pins on a daily basis that we started talking with words. ^^ and since then we speak about everything and still send pins. I see it the same way you meet people offline,just say "hey I like this and I saw you ppst so what else you like?" And from there just let the convo run its course. :3 that is how it worked for me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueerAroAce Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Hey! I wonder about that as well but there are discord groups for finding QPPs & making QPRs, I've never used tinder before though. Also I use queer dating apps to look for cuddle companions? Like taimi for my country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lieden Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 So I keep seeing this kind of thing on a lot of posts here. My main question is what about the in person aspect? I mean, meeting people online is wonderful, and totally valid. But meeting someone random on social media or something isn't helpful to me if there's no (simple) way to meet them irl. Does that make sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That my friend sounds like an awesome way to make friends. I mean they already have the same gaming interests as you and people surprisingly tend to be nicer online depending on the person. :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
