I'm seeking long-term, so we need to make sure we share the same goals first. I am open to short-term and online first if you think things can become something more serious.

What I offer and who I am:

The Bad:
Social cues sometimes go over my head and I can speak with poor tone.
I care about things being correct so I can be a "well actually" type once I'm comfortable with people. I expect others to correct my mistakes also.
I'm very open and honest about things and that can make some people uncomfortable.
I've been called "persnickety" and agree it can be an accurate description of me at times. There is usually a best way to do things. I have an autoimmune disease that requires medication twice daily. I don't think this matters to others much but it's a negative for me. haha I'm on the Autism Spectrum. (if you're familiar, you probably already figured that out). While I am quite fortunate and have very little difficulty in everyday life, there are some situations and sensory inputs that make me uncomfortable or anxious.

I care a lot about the people in my life, even if I don't always know the best way to help. A lot of my energy goes toward my partners happiness. I have a lot of love to give and do my best to show it.
I care about trans rights, equity, and accessibility.
When I'm not working, I try to go to the gym at least 5 times a week. I often get memberships at climbing gyms and do my lifting there, too.
I ask to pet most of the dogs I meet and will move slugs off of the sidewalk.
I enjoy both PC and tabletop gaming with the local board game cafe being my top pick for a first date.
I'm currently working hard(on rotations) to save enough money for a multi unit building and be an ethical landlord. I know, landlords suck, and feel free to discuss this with me. But plenty of people want to rent, and others need to. People deserve a reasonable place to live.
Otherwise, I'm passionate about animal welfare, the environment, fitness, and enjoyable bedroom time.
I'm told I'm attractive, so you can decide when you check the picture I've previously posted. I have curly dark brown hair that's currently longish but above my shoulders still. Blue eyes.
I want to share life with somebody. Make memories and explore. My friends describe me as honest, reliable, and intelligent.

Children are not in my future. I'm on board for being a fun uncle, but I don't want the cost and responsibility of a child long term.

What I'm seeking:
Please have some sort of income or plan for income. I'm eager to retire young and want a partner who's eager to achieve that goal with me.
Be intelligent. I don't mean school smart or necessarily nerdy. But somebody who can discuss thought experiments or hypothetical situations with me and challenge my beliefs or thoughts. I adore a partner who is curious and skeptical but also trusts science and experts when that makes sense.
Have a strong bedroom drive and/or an interest in openness.
Please have English proficiency. I unfortunately don't know any other languages. Though I'm happy to learn!

I'm open to people of all orientations, disabilities, ethnicities, faiths, age(under 35 probably), etc.
Good opening messages would be things you disagree with, pictures of your arthropod tattoos, or weird/uncommon/thoughtful questions.
I'll talk about anything and explain whatever may not be clear in my post.
My current home is in Halifax, but I plan on moving to Regina by the end of 2024
