[littlesparkles]

well to be honest its up too you only you know what your need are . my only real advice is take your time know what you want and don't settle just cuase you want something fast

A lot depends on if you're looking for a platonic caregiver, a caregiver that's also a partner, a sexual or non-sexual caregiver, etc.

Best advice is take your time and get to know each other first before introducing roles.

The hardest part is probably being patient. We all want to meet that perfect someone (if you haven't already), but it takes time to find out if someone's right for you. You can ask questions up front, but seeing firsthand how someone acts, behaves, and responds to you can't be rushed.

Otherwise, just start a conversation. You can certainly ask about any dealbreakers first to save yourself some time. The other thing is to just keep your eyes open. Watch how they interact with others and how they respond to different situations (a bad day, being stressed, etc).

You've been here for 2 months and your first post is about finding a partner. This tells me you are very eager to find someone, which'll lead to a lot of pain on your side, and I'm not talking about the good sadistic kind. 

While it's a good thing that you're asking for advice, you're jumping the gun a bit imo. Like you said, you're very new to all this, so first thing for you to do is try and better understand yourself, your needs, wants, ... Ask yourself what are some things you are and aren't willing to compromise on in a dynamic. Like Little kayia said you also need to ask yourself what exactly you're looking for.

Try participating on the forum a bit. When you see something you can relate to, weigh in. You can do so by asking a question or by giving advice to others based on your experiances. Reach out to people you think you'd connect with and slowly learn more about yourself like this. As for finding a partner, I'd put that on hold if I were you.

Know yourself, be yourself, and the right people will be drawn to you; platonic and romantic. 🥰 Even when this takes more time, you are still taking joy in doing what you enjoy.  What you put out will come back to you.

It’s so hard to meet the right one, sometimes it is just luck. Me and my daddy have been together for 6 years and are getting married next year….and we met on tinder! We got lucky
