Hey everyone! I'm 35, childfree, and the owner of one loveable-but-independent 50 lbs cinnamon colored mutt. I would really like to meet my person. So here I am! Putting myself out there. I'm in San Diego, if that's a deal breaker off the bat. I'm open to other locations as long as the commitment to meet each other and potentially travel back and forth is there. But please be within the continental US.

People who know me will tell you that I'm always trying something new. Lately, those include powerlifting and crossfit, crochet projects for friends (I make a great jellyfish!), SCUBA diving, and whatever random adventures I come up with. In the past, I've also done aerial silks, improv classes and performances, choir... I'd like to try some indoor rock climbing at some point. 

Beyond the surface level hobby stuff and my overall bubbly demeanor lies a vast ocean of emotional depth. I've been identified as a highly sensitive person, which really just means I'm a bit overly empathetic, feel my own emotions deeply, and am affected by things more deeply than the average bear. Conversations with me can range from cutesy and surface level, to deep emotional processing and vulnerability and I really want a partner who is interested in riding those waves with me. I'm deeply introspective, often seek thoughts and feedback, and need to externally (verbally) process what's happening inside my brain to make sense of it. Perhaps makes me a bit of an odd duck, but friends have said it's invaluable to them - they never have to guess at what I'm thinking or feeling because I will just say it. 

I tend to be an immense giver to the people I love, often said to be thoughtful and unusually kind. Not a pushover though, I have too much sass to be pushed around lol I have been working on my people pleaser tendencies, though, and my negative core belief that I have to give so much to others in order to be worthy of love. It would be really lovely for me to date someone who is also a giver.

The physical stuff... I'm 5'7, blonde straight-to-wavy hair that goes down almost to the curve in my back, green eyes, and plus sized. My legs are pretty ripped, which is fun. Occasionally, I like to put some pink and purple under layers in my hair. I periodically have fun with makeup, but for a typical day, keep it pretty simple and natural - basic mascara and eyeliner for the most part.

In a guy, physically I'm looking for someone a bit more clean cut and well groomed. I'm not exceedingly picky on appearances as personality and connection matters far more to me, but a guy who wears clothes that fit his body well, puts some effort into his appearance, has good hygiene and generally has shorter hair and, if bearded, a short beard, is preferred. I prefer guys into physical activity - bonus points for scuba divers. Would love someone to lift with! And anything to do with being in the ocean. Emotional intelligence is really important to me in a partner as well.

If any of this sounds interesting to you, please feel free to shoot me a DM with some fun information about you. I ignored guys who say "DM me!" in the comments or just say "hey, still looking?" If this is still up, yes I'm still looking. ;) Happy messaging, everyone!
