Hey Reddit! I'm a divorced Bay Area local who's taken to this platform in the hope of finding someone special. I've always found the community here to be intelligent, thoughtful, and full of interesting people so I'm hoping I might catch the eye of someone also seeking a slower, intentional way to find connection.
I believe there's something quite special about unraveling the layers of a person through text, and I'm hoping to find someone who appreciates a thoughtful approach as much as I do, and is willing to get familiar through words and find friendship before meeting in person. Let's share some messages, a selfie or two, and test our chemistry before catalyzing a great first meeting.
A bit about me: I'm 5'8", white, with blue eyes and a silvery beard that might be the only thing to show my age. My lifestyle is pretty active – I love being in the gym or out in nature, whether it's hiking and running the trails of Marin County or just enjoying a quiet moment by the Bay. I'm a blend of someone who appreciates mysteries of science and consciousness, with a strong inclination towards personal development, arts, and, of course, the great outdoors! I'm someone who's insatiably curious – always ready to dive into a new book, a scientific podcast, or an art exhibit.
The kind of weekend that excites me ranges from exploring the latest exhibits at the SFMOMA, attending a science talk, running trails on Mt. Tam, or just chilling at a local coffee shop discussing everything from philosophy to the latest tech innovations.
An ideal partner would be someone who's not just attractive on the outside but also has a beautiful mind and soul. Think someone who's equally thrilled by a deep discussion on personal growth, a spontaneous road trip to a hidden Bay Area gem, or spending an evening at Yoshis, the Fillmore, or a thrift store.
What I value most is authenticity, curiosity, and a sense of humor and adventure. Whether it’s sharing thoughts on a new album, challenging each other's perspectives gently, or planning an impromptu hike to catch the sunset, I'm looking for a connection that's as much about the mind as it is about the heart.
If you're someone who finds joy in learning, exploring, and growing both personally and as a part of a duo, I'd love to hear from you. Let’s start with a conversation and see where this journey takes us!
