Whether you celebrate the Winter Solstice, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or another holiday, it's always more fun to celebrate with new friends. Find one here!

Welcome to the Weekly Hookup Thread!

This hookup thread is for the week of 12/22/24 to 12/28/24. If you're looking to meet that special someone or if you want to find a friend that helps you escape the drama that comes with the holidays, here's where to look.

REMINDER: The goal of this thread is to help you guys find each other in a more efficient manner than making a fresh post. It's also a way for women to find potential partners without having to reveal themselves. This can help ladies avoid the unpleasant fate of having their inbox and direct messages flooded by rude users.

In this thread, you're encouraged to post a comment that contains your Age/Sex/NJ Location and what types of partner(s) you're looking for. Please include a sentence or three about what kind of meetup or activity you'd like to achieve.

Rule Clarification: We will remove comments if they are considered low effort quality. This is a reminder, that we're serious when it comes to healthy participation. If you make a low effort phrase, we will remove it. Depending on the phrase, we may give you a chance to edit it. A low effort phrase is considered a one or three word statement where you're asking the person to make the extra effort to start the conversation with you.

Examples can be, but are not limited to the following phrases.
DM Me
HMU
Message me
Hey

We have been cracking down on low effort comments and posts for one major reason. Time has taught us that Redditors who engage a community like this are rarely serious about making a connection, nor are they exercising caution. They are the reason why scammers, prostitutes, and catfishes are upvoted in other communities to the point where real people are hidden within the spam. By forcing people to contribute a little more effort in both comments and posts, it helps protect this community from the types of users that were just mentioned.

Just based on the positive results we're seeing, we intend to continue this trend! Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact the moderation team!

This post will stay up until Sunday next week and then will be replaced with a new post. Remember, if you meet someone here and have a successful fun time, please post a positive story!
