Hey there, beautiful person. Are you wandering through life, feeling like a shadow in a bustling world? I understand the weight of loneliness and the longing for connection. I’m a kind-hearted soul, seeking someone who knows the beauty in quiet moments and the strength in vulnerability. Who prioritizes honesty and direct communication and values intelligence.

If you’ve ever felt overlooked or like your voice is lost in the noise, let’s change that together. I cherish deep conversations, shared laughter, and the simple joys of life. Whether it’s cozy nights in with Netflix and pizza or adventurous outings under the stars, I believe we can create something meaningful. Something real.

I know what you're thinking...this isn't the typical post on this subreddit. I'm not looking to host a gloryhole, gangbang or rail someone's girlfriend. I'm not knocking those things, by the way (no kink shaming here) but that ain't for me. I want to create strong emotional bonds/friendships with no expectation for where they will go. I'm happy to make a new platonic friend as well as something more. My heart is open to all possibilities and I know that anything can be worked out with direct communication.

So let me tell you a little bit about myself:

• I'm a DC native, born and raised in the area in both DC and PG county
• I'm culturally Latino but have been told I'm racially ambiguous
• I'm 6'2 and a fatty, but working to change that. Less fatty more daddy.
• I'm a portrait artist and photographer and see beauty in everyone. Especially people that feel they're not beautiful anymore.
• I'm a really sweet and gentle person in everyday life
• Because we're here I'm gonna mention that sexually I am more dominant in the bedroom and also have a filthy mouth but I keep it under wraps
• I value monogamy in my relationships
• I'm always striving to better myself
• I was engaged 18 months ago, but have never been married. My ex and I are still friends and she has nothing but nice things to say about me.
• My last few relationships were all 5 year relationships
• I show my love/appreciation by cooking for people
• I'm ridiculously verbose and poetic when I'm high
• I partake in weed maybe 4 days out of the week
• My favorite movies/shows are horror, documentaries and comedies. I hate-watch reality shows.
• I've recently gone vegetarian for the health benefits, but was vegan for 3 years in my late 20's
• You most likely will never see me angry. I have a great amount of self mastery. There are people I've known over 15 years who've never seen me upset.
• I don't consider myself religious but I am spiritual. I believe in and follow ideas/philosophies from Buddhism, Stoicism and Daoism
• I'm a funny guy and am really good at bantering with people. It has served me well in my profession
• I'm deathly allergic to cats and don't fare well w/ more than 1 cat
• I wanna be your friend
