I’m looking for a man who stays especially safe to share the new normal with. Romance me by showing me that you can be the one person I’ll feel safe taking my mask off with. I’m looking to find someone who is vaccinated and still takes significant precautions. For starters, you work at home and would not eat in a restaurant. Our minimal indoor interactions with other people will involve a lot of PPE, so we can stay cozy and safe together in a bubble of two.

I'm a socialist and have worked significantly on things like Bernie’s campaign, Medicare for All, and other healthcare policy and am now reimagining how I can help in the current political climate. My past self would be surprised by my new interest in prepping and doom scrolling. Community building is essential as we move forward in this new world.

Once we get to know each other and decide that it's safe, we could stay cozy at home, making dinner together, and watching movies cuddling on the couch. We can take trips to the coast and enjoy time outdoors with friends. I want to find someone politically progressive who is bright and interesting with whom conversation forms naturally so that there is nothing we enjoy more than talking together.

Maybe one day I’ll make you my veggie pad thai in peanut sauce. There’s nothing better than lingering over dinner and getting lost in deep conversations. I find an analytical mind to be sexy!

Just because I am vegan doesn't mean you need to be.

Portland has been home for years now and I love the sense of community I feel here. But as a native New Yorker, I have a direct and honest communication style so you’ll never have to guess what I am thinking ;-)

I think most people think of me as pretty outgoing. I’m easy to talk to and comfortable chatting with strangers. But I think that even people who know me fairly well don’t realize in some ways, deep down I’m kind of shy. I feel like a fumbling dork when I’m trying to flirt!

Oh, and I'm into playing Euro-style strategy board games, such as Catan, Wingspan, and Stone Age--a lot of people have never played these and it’s fine if you haven’t.

You're a loyal and kind person who cares about your family, friends, and the world around you. You believe that direct and honest communication is the foundation for a good relationship.

You live local to the Portland, Oregon, area (or are willing to relocate) so that we can eventually form our cozy bubble of two. You also respect that for me, Covid safety means in the beginning we will get to know each other at a distance by phone and video chat and you understand that we will discuss our personal Covid safety habits in detail.

I look forward to a private message from you that references something I wrote in my Post.
