Welcome to Free Press Cupid, The FP’s old-school matchmaking service for the young at heart, the old souls, the hopeless romantics, the hopeful curmudgeons, and everyone in between. We’ve already arranged one Free Press marriage via FP Cupid—read about their courtship, and tips for how to get the most out of your ad, here—and we’re eager to mint some more FP couples.

Below, find personal ads from singles near and far. If you like what you read and think you might be a match, reach out using the email provided. If you’d like to submit your own ad, write one up and send it to Cupid@TheFP.com. Remember: Keep it short, around 200 words, and be sure to include a little bit about yourself, including where you live, what you’re looking for in a partner, and the best email to use to get in touch with you. We post just a handful of ads a week, so if you don’t see yours right away, keep trying!

One more thing: FP Cupid is a service we offer to our paid subscribers. If you think that this community might be where you’ll find your special someone, subscribe, and then peruse the personal ads behind the paywall. Even if you don’t find a match right away, you’ll have access to all of our articles and to the comments section, and early access to tickets to our events while you wait for your soulmate to show up. If you’re not a part of our community yet, sign up here:

Lots of love,

Christian, 43, Dallas, Texas

Born and raised in Texas, I’m an accidental professional fundraiser who loves the outdoors, great coffee, meaningful conversations, and time spent with family and friends. When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me trying a new Tex-Mex spot, hiking with my dogs, browsing bookstores for books I probably don’t need, or dreaming about my next mountain getaway.

I’m looking for someone who loves dogs, follows Jesus, and believes kindness matters—and who will always let me have the outside of the Oreos. If that sounds like you, reach me at ChristianInTx82@gmail.com.

Lucia, 36, Brooklyn, New York

I’m a corporate lawyer, former Tennessean turned New Yorker, and, most importantly, mom to a wonderful kid. I’m a cradle Catholic who enjoys learning new things, asking big questions, and growing in faith.

I’m looking for a Christian man to build a meaningful life with—someone kind, faithful, funny, and ready for family. Bonus points if you enjoy living room dance parties and cook better than I do! If that sounds like you, send me a message at Hello.Lucia.128@gmail.com.

Alex, 34, NYC

Born and raised in New York, I developed a love for great food, great stories, and having strong opinions. My ideal date is simple: an oversize espresso martini or a to-go Frosé, a walk through the city, and debating which TV character made the worst life choices. I’m fluent in pop culture—Gossip Girl, The O.C., How I Met Your Mother, Degrassi, and One Tree Hill are practically a second language.

I’m looking for someone with confidence, style, and a good sense of humor. If you want someone who’s funny, loyal, and loves making people laugh, send me a message at Brazil301@gmail.com.
