Looking to share love and trust, companionship and comfort. Everyone here seems to be obsessed with penetration and orgasm. Nothing wrong with those things but that’s the easy part. I’m interested in the things that are much more important and difficult. Things like intimacy and vulnerability, openness and truth.

If you’re interested in travelling, reading, music and food we have plenty to start with. Geeks, nerds, and goofballs to the front of the line please. I’m also interested in those with different hobbies and experiences. So if you’re from out of town or out of state, this will work just as much as if you’re from elsewhere in SoCal. Just please be local to SoCal, preferably in LA; or in SFV, which would be ideal. I have tried LDRs (in different states) and they really don’t work for me.

My perfect someone is present, humble, and empathetic. She likes to cook healthy food together, enjoys occasional social times with friends as well as regular quiet times at home with Netflix or gaming. Simple activities like going to a park, museums, hiking, or the latest movie are ideal.

I love to laugh and genuinely appreciate those that initiate playfulness or can be relied on to play along with my silly side. I love animals (we get along great) and being at the beach. I’m also a creative, enjoy the performing arts, and read a lot.

I’m not dtf or looking to share nudes or anything. At all. I’m not interested in someone that shares nsfw pix as casually as sharing popcorn at a movie. No fwbs, ONS etc. for me. Sex is less important to me than trust, comfort, connection and commitment.

I’m interested in getting to know someone for an exclusive and respectful relationship in which we honor each other. This comes with the initial expectation that we want to take time to get to know one another and are genuinely interested in being friends first, as long as meeting IRL is the eventual goal.

I was married for almost 15 years and I am a dad. I know how to commit, respect, and communicate with a partner. I am a loving and doting father to my one child and I am not interested in having more. I share custody and there’s no drama. Her mom and I haven’t been romantic for years. We only want happiness for each other. I’ve dated since and I’m ready to meet someone for true companionship and hopefully a life partner. I’m very loving and attentive. My love languages are words of affirmation and touch.

This got longer than I expected, I have more to share and discuss but I will save that for an honorable person who shows genuine interest in learning more.

If you are this person, please DM me and include a link to a favorite piece of media, music or funny video.

Thanks for reading this mini-novel.
