Hi! hope you're doing well! Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this.

I'm looking for a woman to chat with about life, hopes, dreams, and maybe something more if we click. My hope is to find a partner to grow with and explore together in whatever form that takes.

Someone around my age would be preferable, though not necessarily a deal-breaker if the right person comes along.

While my ultimate goal is to find a partner for a monogamous relationship, I'm not looking to rush into that right away. I would prefer to start slowly and get to know each other first and see how things go.

Who I am seeking

I'd like to meet someone caring and affectionate who likes taking charge when the need arises but isn't afraid to be vulnerable if she needs to be. Someone strong, confident, Funny, Forthright, Compassionate, Nurturing, Encouraging and supportive. The gentle sort who loves driving her partners wild. Someone kind and loving but with a bit of a subtle and playful mean streak who loves to tease and titillate.

But most importantly, she has a solid footing in her own life and is emotionally mature.

Someone who has similar interests to my own or similar enthusiasm for their own hobbies would be lovely. And of course I'm always open to learning about new things if she's willing to show me.

I'd never hope to meet someone who ticks every single one of these boxes. Nobody perfect and I would never ask her to be. All I ask is that you bring your whole self with you when we interact and I promise to do the same for you in return.

About Me, My Hobbies, and What I Bring to the Table

I work as a Network Engineer for a small IT MSP and live in the Tualatin/Sherwood suburb of Portland, OR where I live alone. I am 6ft tall and broad shouldered with green eyes and short brown hair on my face and head. A picture of me for those interested I am also on the bigger side, but I'm working on that.

I'm a fairly even-tempered person. I'm easy to get along with and love being silly and playful. I'm also very affectionate and cuddly. I'd describe myself as an "Extroverted Introvert" and my primary love languages are Physical Touch and Words of Affirmation. I'm also a decent conversationalist and have been told I'm pretty funny and charming.

I'm very handy and an adept problem solver. I have a working knowledge on how to fix computers and other electronics. I am capable of car repair and maintenance (To an extent) and I am naturally strong. I also keep a clean house and try to foster comfortable environments in the spaces I occupy.

I try to be dutiful and attentive to the needs and desires of my partner before my own. I strive to find new and exciting was to make her feel needed and respected. More than anything I love feeling useful and helpful and I try to find ways to embody that as much as I can.

My pastimes include gaming (Video and Tabletop) Tinkering (Fixing computers, radios, or any other electronic devices.), movies/TV(Mostly high-fantasy, comedy or sci-fi. I also enjoy serious drama on occasion.), going on walks, cooking, and going to the beach.

Thanks again for reading! If you have any interest or just have questions please let me know!
