I say that only half-jokingly.

Mine is a field of study with few women and even less free time. Between that, living the COVID life in college, and growing up Catholic, my dating calendar hasn’t exactly been full. Being a reserved person by nature doesn’t help my case either.

That said, I think I do have quite a bit going for me.

I’m not bad looking and I have good personal hygiene habits. In terms of appearance, I’m white with brown hair and brown eyes. I also live on the right side of the all-important 6 foot cutoff at a comfy 6’1.5” (187cm for the Europeans in the audience. While I’m not shredded, I am in okay shape and I have broad shoulders and big muscles. I’m a longtime athlete and I enjoy playing pretty much any sport (except darts, something that I maintain is not a sport despite ESPN’s objections).

I’m also reasonably intelligent (one doesn’t survive engineering school if they aren’t!). I don’t say that to self-aggrandize. I just want to put myself and my hobbies in context - I read a ton (my record is 100 books in a year, mostly nonfiction). I also love documentaries, historical films, and biopics. The Elvis movie is one of my favorites. However, my favorite pastime is travel. I’ve been to over 20 countries in Europe and I hope to see much more of the world in the years to come!

I think that pretty much sums me up. Now for the next part: what am I looking for here? Aside from the obvious bit in the name of this subreddit, let me explain what I’m after.

For one, I want to feel some of that sweet intimacy that I’ve heard so much about yet never experienced firsthand. Little things like kissing someone, holding someone’s hand, or cuddling seem so exciting yet so distant. Even just a taste would make me happy.

The second bit is me thinking ahead. I will probably be married someday, and I want to know how to show my wife a good time (if you get my drift). Being a bumbling virgin is not a good way to do it - I want to learn a thing or two here.

Now, what kind of person am I looking for?

I’ll trot out a pop culture trope to answer that: it’s not what’s on the outside that matters, it’s what’s on the inside. Cornier than a bag of Orville Redenbacher, I know, but it gets the point across. Beyond some base level of attraction, I don’t care too much about looks. Rather, it’s far more important that you be kind, relaxed, and patient with me - I’m sure there will be some awkwardness.

I will say I have a preference for white women or Latinas and for someone aged under 50, but these aren’t nonnegotiables. Your level of experience isn’t terribly important either. Whether you’re a seasoned sexpert or another virgin who wants to lose it to someone in the same boat doesn’t matter to me at all. Also, please be located in Boston - I can’t travel.

Congrats, you’ve made it to the end of this very long post! Don’t be shy, send me a chat and say hello! I’m looking forward to talking to you soon:)
