We would like people to walk with on a Saturday morning
Looking for other couples in this for daytime company, nothing more
We would like some people to walk with. That is the whole post and we are aware it is a strange thing to put on a board like this.
Seven years into an arrangement that is settled and quiet, and in seven years we have never once had a conversation about it with anybody except each other. Not from shame. It has simply never been safe to raise with the people we know, and after a while the not raising it becomes its own habit.
So: other couples, for the daytime. A trail on a Saturday morning, coffee afterwards, and a conversation in which nobody has to edit anything. If it comes up, it comes up. If it does not, we will have had a nice walk.
Both in our forties, the Valley, seven years in. We want to be completely clear that this is not a coded post. We are not looking for another couple to be involved with, we are not looking for a third, and we will be dull company for anybody hoping otherwise.
Not looking for a group with an organiser and a name. Not looking for anything in the evening, since our evenings are spoken for. Not looking for anyone who will spend the walk waiting for us to get to the point.
Before the first drink Replying goes through the connected platform, so nothing about you is shared until you decide to share it. Take contact slowly and keep identifying details back until trust is earned. Meet somewhere public the first time, with your own way home from it, and if you are a couple then go together. Tell someone outside it where you are going. Never send money to someone you have not met. And if a post or a reply reads wrong, flag it rather than talking yourself out of the feeling.
Before you answer a post like this
Nobody here is asking for a date, so none of this is about arranging one.

- How to tell your partner you want this
