Hey there, hopefully your week’s off to a good start. Like everyone else here, I’m looking to find that missing piece we’re all craving—a connection that combines laughter, genuine conversation, and a little something extra to make the days more exciting. I’m a big believer that life is better with someone you can truly be yourself around, and I’d love to find someone who feels the same.

So a bit about me—I’m 38, married, and based on the East Coast. I’m 6'1 with broad shoulders and a mix of muscles and a dad-bod vibe, which then is paired with a trimmed beard and a few tattoos, makes up the whole package. Style-wise, you can catch me in everything from gym shorts and band tees to jeans and polos, depending on what I am up to for the day. I’m definitely a night owl too, so if you’re up late, we’d probably sync well.

I’m an easygoing, empathetic guy who loves to add humor to everyday moments. I’m someone that checks in on rough days, but also the one to laugh with you over random things. I enjoy meaningful conversations and always say more than a few words (if this post didn’t already give that away haha).

When it comes to interests, I’m all over the map in the best way. I’m into board games and video games, binging random shows, heading to the theater (whether the movie’s actually good or hilariously bad), and catching a concert or festival. I’ll also mix in some rec league sports when I can. So if you’re into music, sports, nerdy stuff, or even just dogs, I think we’ll get along just fine.

What I’m looking for here is a balanced, long-term connection. Ideally, I’d love to find that mix of best friend and partner-in-crime where we can talk, laugh, and tease back and forth until we’re grinning at our phones. Flirting and spice are definitely part of it—I mean, we’re not here just for friendship, right?—but I’m also hoping for a bond that’s genuine, where we can both let our guards down and be our true selves.

If you made it this far and think we might click let’s see if we can start something that has us both sneaking glances at our phones hoping to see that next message, whether it’s a laugh or a little bit of trouble. And if you’re looking for a way to kick things off, tell me something random or funny that made you smile this week!
