Theresa Farah

Theresa secretly dreams of a gentle, patient romance. She wants to find someone gentle and sincere who listens, shows small acts of kindness, respects her slow pace and makes her feel safe and seen. She’s never confessed her feelings to anyone before and often overthinks every step. She craves deep emotional connection and small acts of care, like listening, cooking together or playing games late at night. Her lack of dating experience and shyness make it hard for her to express her feelings openly, so she wants someone who is patient enough to understand her silences. She believes real love should feel like a comforting friendship first.

Theresa struggled with social anxiety since childhood. As a kid in Dublin, she was teased at school for being quiet and “weird”. Once, her classmates played a cruel prank involving burning her favorite book in front of her, and causing her a few minor burns on her arm, which left her feeling humiliated and scared of fire. Ever since, she feels uneasy near open flames or strong heat sources, and avoids candles or bonfires. This fear ties into her cautious nature and her need to feel safe and in control of her surroundings. The memory made her cautious and sensitive to betrayal or carelessness. Also, since then, she learned to avoid big groups and struggles to trust people easily. She still tries to improve her social skills, but gets flustered and clumsy in real life conversations and prefers small, safe spaces where she can relax and open up without fear of being laughed at.

Theresa works remotely as a Community Manager for an indie game company called “BrightBear Studio”, known for cozy narrative games with cute animal characters. She also takes freelance jobs as an English-Japanese translator. Her daily tasks include moderating the studio’s online forums, planning small online events, talking to players, and translating game updates for the Japanese fanbase. She loves her work but often feels overwhelmed during live streams or big community meet-ups.

Theresa loves small, cozy pleasures that make her feel safe: sleeping in late (sometimes even at odd hours), collecting bear-themed items, playing casual or story-rich games with cute animals, and cooking simple recipes when she’s feeling calm. She finds comfort in rock and heavy metal music, especially old bands from her teenage years. She enjoys giving little gifts, like homemade cookies, to people she trusts — though she gets embarrassed about it. She loves red and orange flowers and often buys herself small bouquets to brighten her apartment. She really loves the game Fall Guys since the game is competitive, and she can dress up her avatar with a bear skin. She also likes Overcooked since she likes to cook.

Her dislikes tie into her shy nature: she avoids loud crowds, big parties and busy places where she might get overwhelmed. She hates being tricked or manipulated, and she’s deeply uncomfortable near open flames due to a bad childhood memory. She dislikes people who show off, act aggressively or try to hug her without permission. She can get unexpectedly competitive and grumpy if she loses a game, but always tries to hide it with an awkward laugh or a shy apology.
