Hi hellooo! I'm Angela, 33TF from North Texas. I am looking for a committed relationship and hopefully my life partner.

Please read my whole post! I know it's long, but I have made specific requests about contact at the end!

I am a dorky nerdy art type who lives with her head in the clouds. I have been doing art and writing for much of my adult life, and creative expression is very important to me! I love fantasy (broadly, though also genre fantasy primarily) and writing characters that speak to me and others who struggle to find messages in media that speak to them. This is a very strong motivator for me as I spent much of my younger years feeling like if I wanted to see the kinds of things I wanted, I had to make them myself.

I otherwise spend a majority of my hobby time on video games for similar sorts of reasons as art. I love stories and immersion! I also tend to like more slow and brainy sorts of games (my main account is overwhelmingly r/slaythespire posts,) but I do like co-op shooters like Risk of Rain 2 and Deep Rock Galactic. I don't usually enjoy myself with PvP games or anything too fast and twitchy--my reflexes aren't what they once were.

I am somebody who is very committed and has a strong personal (nonreligious) moral code. I deeply empathize with other people. I am known among friends and family as being strongly supportive, however please understand that I am an individual and a peer and cannot be your therapist. I have done my therapy homework over the past decade, and while I of course still have some issues like everyone else, I have actively tried to be the best possible version of myself I can be, and I respectfully expect similar energy from you.

I value touch very strongly, both romantic and intimate. I am also an acts of service and quality time type of person. I'm weak at words of affirmation, but I will always try my best to meet your needs!

Regarding you: I have a few preferences. The most important are in bold:

• Obviously be an LGBT ally. I am openly trans and am looking for someone who wants me just the way I am.
• Absolutely no men. This is nonnegotiable.
• I prefer someone from the US. Immigration is hard.
• I prefer someone who is ideally a similar age to me, 30 . But I will always talk to the right person.
• Please be someone who likes a quiet home life! I am very introverted and am looking for someone on the same wavelength. I don't mind going out, but I have some chronic health problems that can make it difficult and I simply prefer being indoors.
• Please be someone who loves laughing! I can be very silly with pre-meme internet humor and I love sharing laughter with those close to me.
• I really, really want to meet someone with similar creative energy. Art and writing are very important to me.
• I'm really not a dog person. I like cats, but I am also pretty comfortable not having to care for animals currently.
• I am looking for someone who is not interested in having children.
• I prefer someone who is into nerdy stuff. I like learning and I'd like to be able to do stuff like games with my partner.
• I am not particularly looks-focused, but I value someone who looks after their health. My age range begins to have greater concerns about this.

That being said, I do like to know how who I am talking to looks, so please send me a picture of yourself in your message. I will send one in kind--I just do not wish to post mine publicly for my privacy. Similarly, I have a main Reddit account that I'm happy to share in private, however it's ^{probbably boring}

I value verification sooner rather than later, so please expect that exchange. It is for our mutual safety. I am fine talking for a bit to get to know eachother first, though!

Please go ahead click here to send me private message to reach out to me.](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=loriA19) Please please DO NOT message me on Reddit chat, I do not use it! I also tend to not respond to comments to my post. Once we're familiar, my primary means of contact outside Reddit is Discord.

If you find this post in the distant future, don't be afraid to message me! If it's up I'm still looking for you!

Please include your favorite color in your message so I know you read my post! Thanks for listening! Let's go forward and live our best lives together 🖤
