Realistically, the amount of players who view this thread are but a small fraction of the player-base. On top of that, I wouldn't doubt that there are FAR more male players in this game than there are female players. Even beyond that, you'll find a lot of players are settled into their server of choice and won't want to transfer. It's pretty easy to see why it would be hard to find someone.

While this point isn't directed at you in specific and is more or less a trend I see in posts across this thread, but being open minded also goes a long way. I see many "I'm a man playing a woman character who wants a woman playing a woman character" or "Only X race" posts. Which is fine, I have nothing against them. But all it does is limit that person even more. I know if I was a woman browsing this topic I would scroll down the instant I saw any of those posts I mentioned above. Because at least in my opinion, if someone is going to use this topic for the purposes of actually meeting someone of the opposite gender, it should be entirely about the person behind the character. Their in-game gender/race choices should mean very little in the grand scheme of things.

Also as a note, but I have no doubt that just as there's a fair share of guys who would want their eternal bond mate to be a woman/in-game woman combo, there's probably a fair share of women who would want their eternal bond partner to be a 'man/in-game man' combo too. So keeping fantasia to adhere to what potential partners would want is something to always keep in mind.

Both of my characters are bonded to good friends of mine, but if I were to post an application, it would be for the purpose of meeting new friends and/or finding another long term play buddy. If something organically blossomed as a result of that friendship, then so be it.
