Totally borrowing a lyric from Bruce but man is it on point. If you've never heard the song? Let me know what you think when you do.

I feel like it’s cliche to say something like “I’m looking for my ride or die” but maybe it’s a cliche because it’s honestly what a lot of us want. Me included. I also actually like riding and driving fun cars/bikes—without the dying.

Me: Single, divorced. No kids.

I’ve been living in the area for about 10 years, I really like the Shenandoah area and Appalachia. Water and mountains or beaches or a combination of all that is important to me. I will always try to live near these. I somehow really got into homemaking. Bizarre, I know, but cleaning, cooking, laundry, gardening, and… mowing became fun. My friend's tell me I have "dad energy." It’s just rewarding to create spaces. 😂 I live with roommates/housemates currently.

I have one cat, she’s super well behaved and gets along with kids and other animals. Parrots, ducks, dogs, whatever! I’m looking for someone that knows their dog friend (if they have one) won't harass my cat.

Im an omnivore that eats healthy and I want to cook meals that we can share. :-) and I love to grill! Cooking together is fun and if you cook too, I’ll always clean the kitchen.

Other than the aforementioned; I enjoy the gym 5ish times a week and swimming, board games (all games really), biking, flying, and racing RC cars. I don’t game much anymore but when I do I prefer co-op stuff. Single player games are JRPGs and survival mostly. I used to play MTG a lot. I read fantasy and sci-fi novels and prefer that sort of stuff for movies and TV, too. I’ll watch really anything as long as it’s good, though. Annual beach trips are a must.

Music is life, I listen to a ton of stuff. I have my entire CD collection from -get this- 1999. I also have lots of vinyls. I will go to any show as long as the energy is there. The city isn’t far from me so I like to go dancing every once in a while. Let’s go do social activities at concerts or conventions together!

I want to know how you spend your free time, what you’re into on the weekends, etc :-) passions and dreams?

Some more big facts: I am financially secure and debt free. I have a vasectomy (I really thought my marriage was perma), but its cool if you have kids. I retired early and don’t have to work full time anymore. More time for us to do fun things! I will start working part time soon training people to swim and how to life guard and do other water related activities. A long time ago I was a flight instructor and miss teaching.

You: I’m looking for someone that is open and confident and playful, has mutual hobbies and interests, has their life together, and takes care of themselves physically. I value my body and what I put into it and hope you do too. Maybe we could workout or lift together? No smoking, no trumpers, no transpersons. I can't handle super messy people. Taller ladies, I'm 5'7 but I do not care if you're taller with or without heels. I actually kinda like it. Short King Energy. Shorties? let us combine our goblin energies for better or for worse lol.

Here is me, my cat, and some pics that would normally be in a dating profile I guess: https://imgur.com/a/edo1u5P send a pic too, if you think we'd hit it off.

*actual location is Inwood but I can physically hit VA with a well thrown rock so :shrug:
