Hello good people of this seedy sub-reddit! I swore off using the dating apps in favor of trying to meet people organically out in the world. I've had some success with that, and while I'm not ready to get back on the apps, I thought I'd shoot one last shot here in 2024. One thing personals on reddit have going for it is that I can state my intentions a little more clearly without the fear or anxiety of having a co-worker, friend, or anyone else I know finding out my deep dark secrets (like the fact that I'm looking for true love on the internet)

So, I'll just say it. I'm ready to find my future wife. In fact, I've been looking for her for years, and I know she's out there somewhere! The term "settling down" has never really resonated with me, because it kind of sounds like a time of life where fun ends and we just become sticks in the mud. Instead maybe we could settle in. Settle into a life with a partner, a teammate, an equal in every sense to go on adventures with, create cozy warmth together at home,

A little about me: I am 6 feet tall, take care of my physical health by maintaining a decent diet and exercising 3-5 times per week. I have a job that doesn't crush my soul (so therefore it doesn't pay amazingly, but at least I'm happy). I have hobbies, friends, and a fairly busy schedule. I like to cook. I've got a great sense of humor, can make people laugh, I'm 420 friendly, I've been in therapy, I have emotional intelligence, and I have a lot of love to give to my friends and people I care about. I've been described as having golden retriever energy, and I usually possess a positive, can-do attitude. I do want to have kids some day, and know I'd make a great dad, but there's no way I'm rushing this with potentially the wrong person, so that idea is on the back-burner for now.

Anyways, that's all for now. If you're curious and want to learn more, then send me a chat and we'll start our next great love story in private.
