Let's try this again. Looking for the one, or you know someone that's just cool to talk and or hang out with. You can be any age/gender/ethnicity/marital status/orientation. I’m not judging any of that, but I do ask you be upfront about them especially the marital status part. If I need to explain why that matters... move on.

Broad strokes about me. 41, Single and no skeletons in the closet. Live in south Florida but not stuck here. If you want to hype up where you live I'd love to hear it, sell me on where you're from. The middle of summer and its 94 degree afternoons have me sweaty and looking for alternatives. I work in IT/Sales, but recently laid off (like how many others) but not like I'm looking for someone to support me. Unless you have money to burn... and a boat. If you can't tell I have a smartass sense of humor. I have a close crew of friends that stays as a small-ish group. Wants kids (sorry child free crew, we can still be friends though), and it’s ok if you have some already. What I'd like from you? A happy person. Not saying you have to be the bubbly personality 24/7 though. Someone who isn't afraid of anything, no topic is off limits, within reason of course. Someone who has some interests. I don't care if it's about baking or mid 19th century fashion trends, just be able to talk about something. You can be any age, but if you're looking for more than just a chat buddy I'd like you to be around 30-40, but I don't really have a hard limit either way.

If you’re looking for more than just a chat buddy, then you should want to move on from simply being on reddit and chatting relatively soon too. Be willing to trade some social media (though I don't really post anyting), or discord account, or simply text. I admit I am a big texter. I'll go on a run if you let me. I say that because I’m not interested in spending weeks or months getting feelings for someone and then have them ghost me, it happened before and I'm not going to go through that again.

I'm always a fan of kicking off the conversation with a random topic. Like what's your favorite sandwich? Are you a hamburger fan? Smashburger or one of those foot-tall burgers witht he knife through it? Is a hot dog a sandwich? Do you want bougie or basic? Would you turn your nose up at a bologna and american cheese sandwich? BLT?
