Hi R4R40 ,

My name's Todd. I'm an academic by nature, generally positive, optimistic, and intellectually curious. Thought I'd try something new and see if I could find romance here. Physically I'm 6', slim, in good health - oh and here's me. I have an office job with regular hours. Some of my interests include reading and writing (I was an English major and my favorite book is the Count of Monte Cristo for example), video and board games (I generally like rpgs), history, anime, astronomy, fan of sci-fi in general...my favorite movie is The Shawshank Redemption. Lately, I've been binging Daria for a nice dash of nostalgia (for anyone who hasn't seen it, it's absolutely brilliant and hilarious). I also like to run, especially on the beach at night although it's been a while since I've done that but I really do need to return to running again.

I'm generally just as comfortable going out as I am staying in. When I go out, my favorite activities are karaoke and playing pool. As far as values, I place a great deal of importance in: respect, affection, patience, understanding, honesty, and loyalty. Realistically any romance would probably start online unless you're already local to South Florida. I'm open to generally any age but would prefer a partner willing to relocate to me if things go well (this is my preference since I own a home and am working on my PhD so I still have a school commitment for a couple of years, but I am also willing to relocate to my partner so this is negotiable). Ideally, I'm looking for a romantic partner but I'm also game to meet new friends as well! So if you're looking for someone with a few nerdy interests, a guy who likes to open doors for ladies, and is an incorrigible optimist then you should reach out, say hello (chats or pms are fine), and we'll see if there's chemistry!
