Good evening,

I am looking for a relationship that can grow. Both people putting effort into getting to know each other and not just having it be one-sided or monosyllable conversations, laughs, sharing memories, trips abroad, looking to be a dog-mom (Jotun is the best hound!), having late night movie themed nights, cooking dinner together with a slow dance break, and being vulnerable with each other but feeling safe and at "home" in each other.

I want the kiss that takes your breath away. The touch that lingers as we wrap ourselves together under the blankets for just a bit longer. I have put forth time and effort into dating but nothing that sparks into a fire. The sense of something else exists as the days ends without someone special to share it with.

As an individual I enjoy traveling (not to the next city over but overseas travels that last days into weeks), play video games but not obsessed with it, watch a vast array of series and movies on multiple streaming services, going to different shows/musicals in the surrounding cities, training my adopted hound (Jotun), learning more about the world as I complete courses for my second graduate degree, looking at what opportunities my TEFL Certification will open.

In the next few weeks/months I am venturing back into scuba diving as my 2024 hobby. I am taking pottery classes and enjoying making “art”. I will be taking glass blowing, a cooking class, and learning Polish for an upcoming trip. I have learned a lot about myself for I was over 300 lbs and now down to 230 and working my way down to 170 by eating healthier.

I do not have any kids and my circle of family and friends is small. I am alright with that and do not have any drama in my life. Also, I am looking at a full retirement in six years and will travel the world more intensively when that time comes.

As far as looks I am open to all types. My pics are recent and would appreciate the same.
