Hi,

I'm looking for someone who enjoys attention. I like to see myself as a big lovable ogre (I'm 6'6", and a bit overweight due to some back problems that I've been trying to get fixed). I may not be spry, but I have a lot of love to share. I'm unashamedly a nerd. I love horror movies, sci-fi movies, the earlier Marvel movies, OT Star Wars. I also love playing boardgames, D&D, and doing photography of any kind. I'm always open to try new things, go on new adventures, or experience something I've never experienced before. I'm also open to guiding someone through her own new experiences and adventures.

I love texting, and giving the woman in my life all my attention. I'm usually nervous and anxious from the get-go, but once I get into the longer game, I'm extremely attentive. I'm deeply loyal, trusting and honest sometimes to a fault. If that outfit really doesn't look cute, don't worry, I'll let you know honestly. :)

Why am I after an AGR? Honestly? I've been made to feel like a kid my whole life, I'm the youngest of 3 siblings, and the only boy. So, the feeling of being a "kid" or having an older partner makes me feel a lot more awkward than I already am. I am looking for someone who is mature, and has her life together. I don't want to be a side-thing, or involved in an open relationship.

What I think are my "green flags": I'm caring, supportive, and trusting. I'm not the suspicious or jealous type, and I'm not going to "keep tabs" on you. I believe a relationship is a two-way street built on mutual respect and trust. We have our own lives, our own desires and dreams, and as partners we support each other through these, and comfort each other when we fail. I'm not judgemental, and value honesty and openness above anything. I'd rather you speak your mind and pull the bandaid off when things get tough, rather than hold back and let it stew. I've raised myself on the philosophy that you never go to bed angry. We might not resolve the conflict in one day, but I try to at least move forward. I don't hold any of my feelings back, and I respect someone who does the same. I'm also willing to listen to anything and everything. Even if you just want to kick back and talk about free-form thought that goes nowhere, I'd love that. I'm affectionate, and love to hug and hold, and snuggle especially on cold winter nights. I may not be able to go skiing with you, but I'd be happy being your snow bunny, and watching, waiting with a warm hot chocolate for you.

My "red flags"? Well, as much as I love giving attention, I honestly want reciprocal attention as well. I get we're busy and we all have our own routines and daily activities, but if you need to set down your phone for something, best thing to do is say, "Hey, babe, just gotta do something for a bit. Be back in a few" than it is just to leave me on read. I also tend to overthink and over analyze things, but no one is as hard on me as I am on me. If I think something's wrong, I tend to blame myself than others. It's something I'm working on with myself, constantly reminding myself that I can't read other people's minds. I may be quick to pick up on body language, but I'm not psychic is something I need to remind myself. I also love to blather on about whatever. Sometimes, I get into stream-of-thought conversations where I just want to let you know that I'm thinking about you, and sharing what's hidden in my mind.

What do I see as "green flags" in someone? Well, like I said, I like someone who's open and honest about her feelings. Even if you think it's going to hurt my feelings, trust me, I can hurt my own feelings a lot more than anyone else can. Intelligence is a key thing as well, more so curiosity than just book smarts. I love to learn new things, and having someone by my side to marvel at the world or the universe. To be blunt, looks do matter to me. It's more about someone wanting to take care of themselves than it is just being a Swedish volleyball player. But, we both need to feel a physical attraction to each other in order for it to work. I'd like to share pictures of us from the get-go, and I'm not shy about sending that.

What are my red flags in someone? Well, if you've made it this far without being scared away, I'm pretty sure you've passed all the red flags that I would see as deal breakers in our relationship. If you're still interested, my DMs are open.

I live in Southern Ontario, have a passport, and I'm wiling to drive a few hours to meet, but I also feel that it should be reciprocal. You should be willing to come to my cow town every now and then and take in our wonderful site.
