Finding a group or a FC that matches what you're looking for, is already hard as it is. Generally you'll be confronted to the roleplay Triangle of Hell: RP affinity / OOC affinities/ Timezone affinity.
Pick two.
Finding a single contact, or a handful of individual contacts, in my experience, is a nightmare. You'll find many, but few will actually stick for the same reasons stated above. And you will also have to deal with IRL, meaning, that people often tend to drop from the game for various periods of time. Its very rare to find someone dedicated to the game that will be online most days/weeks. Or at least regularly and consistently, even if not often, so you both have your little special moment of the week that rarely fails.Â
I have no answer to bring to you because I have the same issue. I haven't roleplayed in months for that reason alone.
