OK... so here we go. You know when people say it’s hard to write about themselves, well it’s true? It’s hard but here it goes.

About me: I’m a 40-year-old guy from Melbourne, Australia. Definitely don’t feel 40, they say 40 is the new 30s right? Or it’s just an excuse to try and feel young again? I’m educated and currently working in the IT industry. It’s a career that I enjoy and has taught me lots of skills, including how to navigate through life’s challenges. Naturally, I like my technology; however, I’m pretty private. (Basically, no socials; Reddit and YouTube are the only exceptions.) I love an intellectual conversation, and a conversation that you’re able to hold too. I’m an open book, so ask away. I’ll be upfront; I’m not as fit as I should be but, it’s something I’m working on. Let’s just say it’s a dad bod. I’m looking to change this with frequent exercise and looking after myself more. I’m tall (6ft /183cm), have dark hair, and hazel eyes. I come with no baggage, but I’d like to get started on my own family. (Obviously, not right away, but it’s gotta be on the cards.) If you don’t want kids, then I’m not for you. If you have kids from a previous relationship, I’m all for it! I’m not here to score anything but to find a connection with someone. I definitely know my love languages, so I’m keen to discuss that.

About you: I’m after someone who can love me for who I am. Also, be able to show some affection. You’re intelligent and able to hold an intellectual conversation, but can also have simple banter. Looks doesn’t really matter, but there has to be some attraction there. As I said, I’m not here to score, I’m here to try and find my partner in life. I’m seeking someone in their late 20s right up to mid-40s. A woman who also comes with or without kids (please, no baby dad problems) and isn’t afraid to talk about starting a family. I’m not saying start a family right away, but it has to be on the cards. I’m after someone who invests in themselves, mentally and physically, not saying that you have to be in Victoria’s Secret model, but you’ve gotta be working on self-improvement. My non-negotiables are: no drug dependencies, alcohol abuse, no smokers/vapers, financially sound, and most importantly, manners.

If any of what I’ve said vibes with you, hit me up via message or chat! We’ll chat here first, then we’ll go from there. My go-to is Discord (it’s safe and secure, and also most importantly, private). Please no low effort replies.

Message me: - where you’re from and how old you are, - the advice you’d give your 16-year-old self, - your favourite candy / lollies / sweets and why?

Hope to speak to you soon!
