Hey! My name's Rori, and I'm tired of hookups. I'm tired of forcing interaction when we both don't care about each other cause we wanna get off. I'm tired of fishing and accepting incompatible and awkward friendships because we both think it's better than nothing. I'm not convinced it's better than nothing anymore.

I'm posting this looking for a best friend (and hopefully more).

So....me. I'm a 29/5'7/HWP white chick with brown eyes and shoulder length dark hair. I enjoy cooking, video games, and all things music. I'm a Pisces if you care, but I don't even though I own a tarot deck and love it. I'm very much a tomboy, my guilty pleasure is Harry Potter Fanfiction, and I have a cat named Shannon whom I love very much <3

If you didn't catch in the tag, I'm trans. I've been on HRT for about 6 months, am out to family/friends and even work, and started getting laser for my beard, but besides that am generally androgynous at best but I'm making progress. Bottom surgery is still a ways off, but is and has always been the goal, please don't reach out if you're interested because of my male anatomy rather than inspite of.

Speaking of, I ask patience with the fact I have male anatomy. I'm deeply uncomfortable with it, if you can feel it while we're cuddling/making out, be able to politely ask for me to adjust it if it bothers you. Frankly I'll probably be the one doing that first.

You:

• First and foremost my ideal partner is my best friend first, romantic partner second. I want to be able to laugh with you, cry with you, live life together with you.

• Over the age of 25

• Monogamous (once we're serious). Trust me, I've tried poly before, it's truly not for me. It's not even a jealousy thing, I just can't bring myself to be with someone else when I'm in love with someone. Hoping for someone who feels the same.

• Love cuddling :3

• Okay with how weird sex is for me right now between dysphoria and HRT playing havoc with functions. I may be fine using my bio-strapon sometimes if it's really wanted, but please be fine with mostly receiving and my pants usually staying on until after bottom surgery. Big bonus points for loving oral, eating pussy is my favorite sexual activity by a lotttt. I'd hope you're on the higher end of libido too despite how one sided it'd be for a while. I've explored a lot of kinks and ended up finding I'm pretty vanilla, but passionately so, I adore intimacy (omg, handholding and eye contact during sex anyone???) and think sex is at it's best when we're both smiling and having fun.

• Major bonus points if you hate cooking and are fine doing dishes. I love cooking and hate dishes, and would love to find a fit for that little puzzle piece.

Please note, I'm lesbian. I am completely uninterested in Men, I don't care how much this is a fantasy for you, I'm not here to be your fetish yeah?

For my trans sisters, unfortunately I'm not interested unless you're post bottom surgery. I'm uncomfortable with my anatomy on me, I'll be uncomfortable with it on you. I'm pretty sure most of you know exactly what I mean.

Sooooooo if all that sounded interesting to you, I live maybe 10 minutes off the beltway in MOCO MD and 20 from the end of the Red Line. I live solo, no roommates, employed full time and barely making it by, but making it. I'd hope you live close enough that we can visit and choose to go home rather than one of us NEEDING to stay the night always, but that's not a dealbreaker for me.

Please be interested in talking a bunch first and not just asking to meet in person right away. Honestly all of those trying to get drinks before I even know their name creep me out.

I hugely prefer discord over reddit messaging, if you're the same feel free to reach out with your discord ID. I'm also active on the RAOMD discord too!

Otherwise please include what I should call you, and a bit about you for us to start conversation.

I'll ignore any that don't include your gender in the about you, you'd be astounded at the number of men who don't read anything and reach out thinking they can just not mention they're a guy and i'll be like "sure whatever" when I find out cause they didn't technically "lie" .

Hope to hear from you soon <3
