u/Partial-ROM

Heeeey lurkers 😏 I’m married and I’ve been around these parts for a while and I’ve struck gold more than once here. Unfortunately, it’s been a while since I’ve met anyone I felt really excited about buuuut…I haven’t met you yet!

I’m smart, funny, quick witted, kind, genuine, capable of introspection, vulnerability, and emotional expression. At the same time, I’m fully aware that I’m not perfect, and I’m more likely to give my attitude a regrettably long leash from time to time than I am to have abundant lukewarm takes. Just know that if I’m interested, I’m probably poking a little fun 😉 Honestly, looking for someone similar.

Physically: I’ve always loved the gym, I’ve tracked macros for years, and it shows. Some people are understandably more impressed by this than others 😅 Honestly, looking for someone similar.

The non-unanymous consensus is that my face card is high tier. 🫣 Honestly, looking for someone similar. I’m more likely to agree if you’re at least a few years younger than me.

Other misc: I love music, cooking, traveling, and reading. I’m looking for something that will probably exist mostly (but not entirely) online. Slide into the inbox being your fully weirdest self and let’s start our own little finer things club for two. 📥

Isn’t that what we all deserve?

I need to be up front about something: physical attraction, while not the most important aspect of attraction, has been the hardest piece of the puzzle to find here. I realize that this is a “me” problem, make no mistake. Nevertheless, it is a problem, and I thought just maybe there’s a woman here feeling the same way 👀

Given that we have that in common, maybe we shouldn’t get our hopes up too high, but it’s worth a try. No hard feelings if it’s a “no thanks.”

Again, looks aren’t the most important thing. We have to vibe, have some kind of shared interest, life experience, worldview, availability, intentions, etc. Gosh knows the list goes on.

“My type” is at least a few years younger than me with some enthusiasm for fitness and nutrition, a slim/athletic body type, and some clever sass. I can offer well above average hair, clean-cut good looks, and the muscles and abs that nobody here is requiring in a partner. 😅 My personality is…not dull. More divisive than my looks, if I’m being honest. I’m witty and intelligent but I do not suffer fools. I can be moody, blunt, sarcastic, snarky, even mercurial at times. BUT at many, many other times, I can be kind, genuine, funny, vulnerable, and affectionate. I like to think myself emotionally intelligent and decently self-aware, for as much as you can take someone’s word for it. Like I said, I realize I’m not for everyone, but some subsection of people really appreciate who I am.❤️ They’d probably say I’m being hard on myself with this assessment; I say it’s a matter of perception.

I’d love to find someone in NYC but I travel well to major population centers east of the Rockies.

Maybe you’ll like the way I use my words (and gifs) and show me an effort worth matching 📥

Edit to say that I am married

You clicked? “So you agree? You think you’re really pretty?”

Kidding…kinda. 🤣

I’ve realized that it’s not enough for ME to think you’re really pretty. I prefer doing this with someone who finds themself attractive. Have you ever tried to have an online affair with someone who doesn’t like the way they look in pictures? I’m sure that actually works fine for many of you, just not for me.

So what makes me a catch? Well if I’m being honest, my looks probably have the broadest appeal. Clean-cut type handsome, above average hair, and the abs that nobody has asked for. If your type is specifically dark-featured or particularly blue collar, I might not be for you.

My personality is…not dull. Not as universally appealing as my looks, if I’m being honest. I’m witty and intelligent but I can be moody, blunt, sarcastic, snarky, even mercurial at times.

What would make you a unicorn to me? For starters, effort, intelligence, and wit. I’ve always thought that intelligence + a little attitude and an overlapping sense of humor is what made one person witty to another. Confidence is attractive, but so is vulnerability. It’s so hard to quantify, but I want someone who gets me. I also appreciate someone who is a little worldly. Not the biblical definition, I mean someone who has maybe done some traveling, appreciates other cultures (especially their food 😂), and had some higher education. What a fucking snob I sound like💀 I’m gonna stop myself there.

Physically, I need someone who is conventionally attractive, has a slim/fit/athletic body type, and some amount of enthusiasm for exercise and nutrition. I travel well just about anywhere near a major US population center east of the Rockies, but the closer you are to US Eastern time, the better.

Last, I do require that you be younger than me by a few years. I know, It’s a hangup I wish I could get past, and it definitely holds me back in this side of my life. Alas, here we are.

What do I want out of this? I’ve learned that I am open to different experiences. Daily texting, a good dose of voice and video notes, selfies, sometimes a call. Make each other laugh, blush, introspect, and swoon. I don’t necessarily need to meet soon or often. I’m am up for being exclusive, but it’s not a requirement. I always say I’m here for the journey, not the destination. Friends first, and it can turn spicy in due time. Even when things don’t work out, it was usually a pleasure to have met.

Clearly I could ramble on, but that’s surely enough. 📥
