Hello.

Before I mention anything else I want to make it clear that if whomever is reading this feels like we may have a connection or ability to bond together they should message me. No hesitations or doubts, please. I don't believe in losing potential and being self-defeated before anything even occurred. I've not uncommonly been told I'm patient, kind, and easy to talk to, which I hope is just as true for those I come across here. Should you like or need it, please allow me to soothe your nerves instead of allowing us to suffer from any misunderstandings or difficulties.

I ended up here on a whim and came across a few communities that resonate with me in some ways. I'm used to meeting people sporadically in less deliberate places, so please excuse anything that seems odd or that doesn't meet standard expectations.

I'm very interested in meeting like-minded folk who believe they have some similarities with me and that we may click. Specifically, I'm seeking a woman that's 18 or older from any country and background (who that woman is matters more to me than details of this sort). I'm 33 and male myself, and adore thorough and passionate interactions with a meaningful basis. I dislike trivialities and meaningless interactions. I want to feel and create a deep bond that's built little by little with every conversation and action. I'm very open to an LDR with the right person and possibly advancing that or having more in time. We'd need to feel out what worked best for us and where we wanted to take things.

I've also always been the type to want to meet new and interesting people. Lacking similarities has actually opened me and those I met to things we would have never considered before. Some common interests and especially character traits are vital, but completely relating and having everything in common isn't everything. Knowing what traits matter most comes out in chat and interaction, not a checklist of things to conform to. I've been surprised by who I was able to bond and share with, so I'm open to a lot. I hope you are as well.

Some basic facts about me:

• I like long and intimate discussion. By this, I mean not being restricted by trivialities and actually being ourselves. I'm not someone who likes casual chat about things that don't matter to either of us.
• I value creativity and like artistic types. I express this myself through writing and more literary arts but appreciate all sorts of expression, even if it's a type I'm not personally involved in.
• I like to research and learn new things. I don't like to constrain myself and am interesting in seeing various topics in intricate and new ways.
• I adore vulnerable people with complexity and seeing who someone really is. Having a comfortable space to fully let loose is an ideal. I'm openly accepting of sensitive and traumatized people.
• Photography, movies, tech, incense, time pieces, archiving, and abstraction have always interested me and continue to do so.
• I stopped being able to comprehend how old I feel some time in my 20s. I've been feeling very surreal lately, hence trying something like this. Apparently this is very common in these sorts of places, so I mention it.
• I'm INTJ, since some people seem to like knowing. I like taking different types of tests to understand myself and others better. A lot of them seem petty bunk to me, including MBTI, but it can be a fun activity to share with someone, to take them together and then discuss the results and test itself.
• Due to my personality and desires, I could be considered demiromantic and demisexual. I also get along very well with asexuals despite having sexual desires myself.

I look forward to us chatting and connecting around meaningful and fervid passions.
