I am here until February and it is the first thing in my profile

Posted as six_months_say_first, 22 July 2026

Looking for
somebody who wants six months honestly rather than a year pretended
Experience
Nine years, four arrangements, three of them in other countries.
Around
the south, Amsterdam

I arrived in April and I leave in February. Ten months, a fixed date, a return ticket already bought. That is line one of my profile and I put it there after a previous posting where I did not, and hurt somebody who had reasonably assumed otherwise.

The response splits cleanly. Some people stop reading, which is entirely fair. Others treat it as a challenge, as though the date were a negotiating position. A few, and these are the ones worth having, say good, here is what we could reasonably build in ten months, and then actually think about it.

Thirty four, the south, switch, nine years in, four arrangements and three of them conducted in countries I no longer live in.

What I want is exactly what I would want if I were staying, only planned with the ending already in it. A fixed evening, standing expectations, both directions over time, and a conversation in January about how we finish rather than a fortnight of drifting. I am experienced, I am organised, and I am completely uninterested in pretending I might stay.

Not looking for anybody who wants to talk me into staying. Not looking to be an interlude that nobody admits is an interlude. Not looking for a person who cannot plan an ending, since the ending is the part I already know the date of.

What to have sorted before you reply

Which direction is on the table this month is not in the post, and asking flat out reads badly. That takes a conversation, and a conversation needs a room you can walk out of.
