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 story, 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, 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,

Cupid

Shahar, 30, London, England

Hi, I’m Shahar. Israel-born, California-raised, and now London-based. I spend my free time cooking, chasing my Duolingo streak, and taking unnecessarily long walks around the city. I somehow wiggled my way into the music industry designing album artwork. My passion for music stays rooted in listening to one new album per day and going to as many gigs as possible. I’m looking for someone funny, loyal, intellectual, ideally Jewish, and preferably able to cook. I also want someone who will dance with me at gigs (or at least let me dance). Cook me your signature dish, and I’ll make the playlist. Reach out at Hello@ShaharRoda.com.

GB, 27, Kentucky

I’m an Army reservist, in seminary, and work in nonprofit administration. I love God, I love people, and I care deeply about community. Eager to build a life rooted in faith, service, hospitality, and love, I’m looking for a man with similar values.

I want someone kind, intellectually curious, easygoing, light in spirit, and serious when it counts. I’m drawn to men who are thoughtful and emotionally mature, and who want to build a real shared life with family and commitment at the core. If you also want these things, send me a message at GarettB.Nunley@gmail.com.
