My name is Michael. I am a 35 year old male. I am a single native Long Islander (New York.) I have been living in the west valley of Arizona for 15 years now. I'm pretty chill and laid-back, but at the same time, I am also very schedule orientated. If that makes sense. I work out nearly every day.

I am looking for a potential relationship, not friends. If you want friends, look elsewhere so we won't waste each other's time. I want someone ideally in Arizona in particular the west valley (as I live northwest of Phoenix.) I can be flexible though.

If you plan on messaging me, here are my deal breakers: If you say you are from China, I likely know you are a bot. If you are looking for a godfearing man, I likely know you are a bot. If you cheated, don't message me. If you are abusive or controlling, don't message me. If you smoke or vape don't message me. If you do drugs, don't message me. Note: if you use marijuana edibles or other non smoke marijuana, that is fine (I personally can't stand the smell of smoked marijuana) If you are overly religious, don't message me. If you are racist or sexist (even to men), don't message me. If you don't like jokes especially dad jokes, don't message me. If you are looking for a polyamorus or open relationship, don't message me. If you aren't ready to be in a relationship, don't message me.

Looks wise, I am 5'11" blue eyed with short black hair, and I am working on growing a beard again. I have a weird smile where I can't smile on command (like continuously for pictures) but I do naturally smile. I do wear glasses. I dress like a mix of a nerd, rocker and a skater off the clock. While on the clock it is polos, button-downs or at least nice looking tees with slacks. In fall/winter I do wear flannel, lots of flannel. I weight about 215 right now. I have lost nearly 80 pounds since last September. I am no longer as big of a BHM as I once was and more muscular. I attached pictures from a recent monster truck show I went to. I look mostly the same besides my beard growing in a bit more.

I'm into movies, music (mostly rock, punk, metal and country), working out, taking walks, Disney, hockey, football, monster trucks (going to Monster Jam in April and maybe to the fair at the end of this month) and comic books. I am starting a master's program to become a special education teacher in January.

If I do not reply, it is likely due to being at work or driving. I work 7:45-3:15 MST (AZ don't do DST of you didn't know) so if you don't see me text between say 7:00 and 4:30 MST, I am not ghosting you.

My DMs and chat are officially open.
