White, 5'8", 220lbs (getting back down to the 180-190 I should be), hazel eyes, handsome if you ask me, often complimented on my smile.

I work in IT and in the next 5 or so years am planning on being more established and secure in my salary. I already do fine for myself, but am just trying to be a little more career oriented for the long term. I practice brazilian jiu jitsu, am a decent baker and an okay cook, and am also teaching myself bass and guitar. As you might have guessed, I haven't done a lot of traveling in my life. Sometimes with wanderlust to go on adventures with would be very welcome.

I would consider myself a fairly introverted and private person, but I've been left wanting for someone to express love and affection toward. I think I have more than a bit of every love language in me. I of course love physical touch in the ways of the obvious, even and especially the smaller parts of it like long hugs when cuddling, hair playing, etc - but I'm also huge on words of affirmation, quality time, and acts of service (which are especially big to me during intimacy, I'm a colossal pleaser even over my own pleasure). I absolutely adore affirming, praising, and complimenting as well.

For the girl I'm looking for, I'll generalize.

• Wants an equal partner in life and love - I am not looking for some kind of SAHM/trophy wife. We should both be who we are and are attracted to that person.
• Fitness is at least important to you on some level. I've lost a lot of weight, personally. My body isn't perfect. But staying healthy is for me. I plan on being active until I die.
• Matching humor. I very much like black and sardonic humor. My favorite movie is Hobo w/a Shotgun. If we can laugh at it together, you might be the one.
• I'm a sucker for a good smile. Though a girl with a good midriff makes me bonkers.
• I probably don't care what you do in life or for hobbies as long as it's something you love doing.
• Preferably in the US. Not against beyond that if we click.

Let's start as friends and see if more comes naturally - things like this shouldn't be forced. Let's also trade pictures early so we know the attraction is mutual. Down to voice or video chat after a lil bit.
