Hi Reddit! I'm looking for something/someone very specific. I know it's likely a shot in the dark, but we'll see!

What I'm looking for in a partner:

Male, straight, single, unattached, and looking for a long term genuine monogamous partnership.

Preferably 10 years within my age range (28-48)

Loves cats

Funny, witty

Finds joy in little things and laughs quite often. Enjoys ridiculous comedies. And find farts hilarious.

Self-improvement is important to you and something you take seriously (desire to grow and learn, especially emotionally)

Confident in who you are and what you want in a relationship.

Feminist

Politics-wise... NOT a Trump supporter. I consider myself to be moderately liberal, esp in regards to human rights.

Preference for Christian faith. My spiritual life is important to me and something I'd like to share with my partner.

In the Pittsburgh, PA area, or willing to relocate to the Pittsburgh area after plenty of time (no rush) should we really hit it off (bc of life circumstances, I will be here for the foreseeable future, though it's not necessarily where I'll always want to be)

Kind, respectful, and gentle towards others.

Unselfish with your time and willing to help others.

Decent sex drive (pretty important to me) and NOT a Dom (not looking for strictly a sub either). You are happy to be a giver in the bedroom. ;)

Loves to cuddle, snuggle, be touched and reciprocate those touches.

Somewhat of a homebody; enjoys Netflix binging and take out on the reg, but also enjoys time out and about every now and again.

Enjoys giving and receiving compliments (but especially giving bc compliments go extremely far with me! Lol)

Must be okay with Hallmark movies. You don't have to love them, but if you can't find the humor and ridiculousness in them, you'll be annoyed with how many of these stupid/wonderful movies I watch lol

If you are a current drug/alcohol/marijuana/cigarette/vape user please don't reach out. No judgement here, I just know from life experiences that drugs, as well as regular alcohol and/or marijuana usage, is not something I can have in my life.

Not hugely into anime/gaming. Nothing against these things, I just personally am not into either and, based on prior life experience, feel we MAY not find a lot of common interests.

Took (and takes, in appropriate scenarios) COVID precautions seriously

Willing to verify via live photo and communicate via Snapchat, at least initially

I know, I know. This list is pretty lengthy and probably sounds ridiculous, right? I hear ya! But this is what I've learned throughout my 38 years that I desire and need in a partner, and I value myself and others time and energy enough to not settle for less. If you see this list as an annoyance, it would be unnecessary for you to reach out.

If you've read the above and thought, "awesome, this woman knows what she wants in a partner!", here's a little bit about me:

I'm 38 years old, single, never married, and I do not have any kids (though I am open to that with the right partner). I have two rescue cats. I'm short and consider myself BBW. I'm working towards getting back to chubby, but I don't necessarily have a desire to be "thin." I am grateful for my body, no matter it's size. I have pale skin, blue-ish eyes, light brown hair, fantastic smile. I consider myself attractive, but know I'm not going to be attractive to every man out there, and that's okay!

I try very hard to always be respectful and kind towards others. That being said though, I am not afraid of confrontation and will absolutely call people out on their bullshit and double standards. And I'm looking for someone who would be willing to do the same, especially towards me should I be behaving poorly. I want to be with someone who cares for me deeply enough to want me to be the best version of myself that I can be, and vice versa.

Deep breath

If you're still with me here, message me! Not sure you check every box but still interested? Message me (an actual message please, not just 'hey, I'm interested') and we'll see how things go! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Oh, and if we start chatting, PLEASE ask me questions too! Otherwise, I will assume you either have narcissistic tendencies (pass), or you are not interested (and then I'll stop asking questions too!).
