I can finally dump my huge balls of steel here without getting kicked out, Oh happy day! Lol.

How does it feel to be 30? Idk, my biological clock seems groovy, I haven't got a sciatica flare up in a year, life is swell!

I intend to get out of my comfort zone and not just keep being a wallflower from now on and posting this here is a step in that direction.

I'm in a weird transitional phase of adulthood where things go wrong and then they pick up and I'm on a high then they get weird again.

But you know what? I love it!

However, despite having so much on my plate, I'd very much like to meet someone and not endlessly swipe, subject myself to social events or matchmaking by my African aunties (🤮) Maybe I'm insane but I feel I might meet my person here lol.

Me: I'm reserved and shy, soft spoken with a wicked sense of humour and I'm a major home body. I work a typical 9-5 with an insanely busy schedule.

I'm passionate about my interests - Food, Art, Music - my taste usually surprises people, documentaries, politics, gardening and aromatherapy. The people in my life say I'm driven, headstrong, protective/caring and kind, I consider myself strong willed and a great listener but very particular about my boundaries.

You: Single, 29 - 50 and have your life together. A gentleman who is kind and respectful.

I'm attracted to quiet confidence, drive/ambition, gentleness, emotional&mental maturity, and a good sense of humour.

Mutual attraction matters so I'll be happy to exchange pics from the start so we don't waste each other's time: https://imgur.com/a/yCndmmR

I want a lasting connection that's worthwhile. I'm not looking for anything casual or a fwb situation.

I kindly ask that you gloss over this if you're not looking to build something longterm that will end in us sending post cards to relatives every holiday.

I strongly prefer voice calls and would want to talk to you right away if there's a connection, feel free to suggest a place we can move to for this.

If you're not comfortable with calls or sharing a pic, please don't reach out.

You'd also have to consider that we probably would have to deal with a wicked distance (I reside in the jungles in Africa) until I relocate this fall then it'll be easier to manage.

Alright, alright alright! Looks like I'm all set so let the games begin.

P.s I don't actually want to play games with your heart and I don't play video games either. Just putting this out there.
