I have a fear of speedbumps, but I'm slowly getting over it..

Hi and welcome to my post! Wanted to start off with a funny to me dad joke.

Nice to meet you, I'm Dylan! I'm a 22 year old from the US. I'm looking for a woman 18 and older and any ethnicity or age is welcome.

I'm looking for someone who is interested in getting to know me and hopefully form a friendship or something more fun/intimate perhaps if we get comfortable sexually. I've been very touch starved lately and a little sexually frustrated just because anytime I get in that sort of mood I just have myself and I don't have anyone to share that type of intimate bond with where we can and fun and learn about things together and explore ourselves. I work the 3-11pm shift at work and my only coworkers are 3 older men so it's not exactly easy to meet women which is why I wanted to look for something genuine and intimate even if online. Eventually I'd love to move off of Reddit once we are comfortable. And just to clarify, I don't just want someone for sex. I want something genuine and will always be kind and mindful of your boundaries and feelings. I'm extremely non judgemental when it comes to my partner's body and sexual preferences and things they enjoy.

I'm just relaxing, listening to music as I burn a few candles. I love candles! 🕯️ Sometimes a campfire outside on a fall night or a crackling WoodWick candle is a relaxing constant among our busy and hectic world. It's nice to just disconnect, feel grounded and happy in your own little cozy space. Feeling calm and collected and at peace. Something that fewer people take the time to do these days.

Now for some things about me!

I am left handed which is pretty cool. I'm not much of a party person or a drinker, I much prefer a quiet night at home and maybe a beer or two on a weekend but that's about it. I am simple and stay out of drama and trouble and don't get much into politics or other things that cause drama with people. I much prefer a relaxing campfire and a night at home and to just let the world keep on turning haha. I consider myself pretty intelligent and mature.

Physically I'm 180 pounds, have brown hair, green eyes, and a typical build.

Some of my hobbies are:

• Photography

I have a Nikon D200 and D5500 that I love to shoot with. I love nature scenes, abstract, black and white/goth kinda photography, sunsets, etc. it's so fun to just let your mind explore. It's not about what camera you have, but those who are behind the camera!

• Cooking and baking

I loveeee to cook and bake! I enjoy making various meals but also love to just have a frozen pizza once in awhile or something like that. I recently made homemade chili which turned out great. I love to bake, especially in the fall! I love pies, cakes, pastries, cookies, etc. I restored a vintage KitchenAid mixer that needed tbe gearbox rebuilt. Eventually I would love to practice home canning my own food.

• Music

Oh my gosh, I like so much!! Alternative rock, punk, post punk, electronic, synth pop, psychedelic rock, hard rock, etc. I am very non judgemental and open when it comes to music. My three current favorite bands are Type O Negative, Joy Division, and the Cure.

• Nature walks and camping

I really enjoy camping, making fires, and relaxing by a campfire. I love to take walks outside and just enjoy the beauty and simplicity of nature. It's wonderful, especially in a world so focused on everything digital.

• Repairing things

I'm a maintenance guy and one of my hobbies is electronics repair so I am good with my hands and just all around good at troubleshooting and fixing all sorts of things around the house. Last week I helped my elderly neighbor get his tractor started, it needed a new component in the starting circuit. So I'm pretty handy which... Comes in handy! 😂

• Autumn 🍁

This isn't a hobby per say, but man do I love the fall!!! It's my absolute favorite time of the year. Oh my gosh. The beautiful colors, crisp cool air, misty and foggy days, rain, lack of bugs, being cuddled up with a candle or by the fire drinking a tea, etc. I love it! There's only two seasons for me. Fall, and waiting for fall! Haha.

• Scented Candles and incense

Going along with my love for fall, I absolutely love candles! I have like 30 something lol. 😂 Currently my favorite are WoodWick, which are owned by Yankee candle. They have such a soothing crackle and the scents are great! I also love to burn incense from time to time as well. I have cottagecore hippie vibes.

• Old houses and architecture

I love old houses! Especially 1900s and Victorian era homes. Old homes have so much character to them and are just so beautiful from a time when people took pride in their craft. I strongly dislike the modern cookie cutter cheap construction of homes today. I've never lived in a new home, as I am currently living in the home I grew up in, a small little 50s ranch house. I would love to live in an old home one day. I also love their architecture and uniqueness, as well as architecture of old cathedrals and other buildings.

• Relaxing

Basic I know, but sometimes on the weekend I just love to get cozy in bed and relax and put on a YouTube video or an album! 😊

That's about it for me, I'm a pretty laid back and simple person. My ideal person is someone who is respectful and honest! I am very straightforward and open minded and would hope that you are as well.

If I seem interesting to you at all I would love to hear from you!

Thank you so much for reading.
