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
Sheena, 31, Chicago, Illinois
Hi! I’m Sheena. I’m 31 and an old soul; my Spotify Wrapped concluded I’m actually 83.
I’m in grad school to become a therapist and think a lot about how we can build the kind of communities that will actually reduce the need for therapy. I remain true to my middle school AIM handle @Bookworm4Eyes. I’m partial to dystopian novels. Next up: The Abolition of Man by C.S. Lewis. I’ll put my book down for a beautiful hike, karaoke with friends, anything cross-cultural, and walks around a new city.
I’m looking for someone who loves the Lord, lives their values, and wants to build a family, possibly overseas. Are you my boxing partner who will bring out my silly side? NumberingTheStars@gmail.com
Greg, 65, Minneapolis, Minnesota
I am a semiretired geologist with two successfully launched adult kids. I was married 25 years. Yes, I am divorced, though we are still friends. I’m eternally grateful and still optimistic that my other half is out there.
I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin but my home is in Minneapolis. Yes, that Minneapolis! For the last four summers I have lived in south central Alaska. Ask me about this—could be a nice conversation starter. I love to cook, read, and write. I am physically active and spiritually grounded. Looking for a woman who is smart, interesting, curious, and appreciative to join me in a long-term monogamous relationship. You can reach me at Gab4254@gmail.com.
