Firstly, I’d like to start this post by saying it may be a long one. So please bear with me when reading this. And if you’ve clicked on this post, I hope I’m intriguing enough to strike up a conversation with.

Hello! I’m a 30 year old male in Chicago looking for someone to be in a relationship with. I’ve been single for a while now and I’m trying to find something long lasting. I’ve had some luck in connections that were LDR’s, but I would like someone who is physically (geographically speaking) closer to me this time around.

As far as a description of me goes; I’m 5’7” tall with short black hair and facial hair, tan skin, brown eyes, and what I’ve been told is a “dad-bod” physique, and I’m Puerto Rican. I have tattoos and intend on getting more.

I’m looking for a serious LTR and I’m not afraid to commit to that. I do understand that many factors come into play in adult life. Like work and responsibilities, but I will always make time to talk to you. My family (parents, sibling and their spouse, nieces and nephews) is important to me, so they play a big role in my life. Not overly influential, but still very important. So please be a family oriented person as well, or at least understanding that I am.

A bit about me: As I’ve stated, I’m 30 years old and I’m finding myself at a point in life where I want to find the one and settle down to start a family of my own. As you may already have noticed, I tend to use proper punctuation and grammar when I type/write. It’s a habit I’ve had for a while, and I see no reason to break it now since it’s not a bad one. I’m just stating this because most people tend to think that me using proper punctuation, such as periods for full stops/sentences, means that I’m upset or angry. But that’s simply not the case. My favorite color is purple, and my favorite food is chocolate chip cookies (so if you have a slammin’ homemade recipe for chocolate chip cookies, you get extra points! Lol). As far as hobbies and interests go, they’re all pretty basic. I’m a musician and I can sing, I have written some poetry but haven’t had inspiration to write more as of late, I like to cook and try new foods, and like any typical person my age I enjoy video games -when the mood strikes me- as well as movies and stand up comedy. I am divorced (it’s been 5 years since then) and I don’t have any children; but I would like children of my own some day. I don’t really tend to discuss political matters, and I don’t find myself to be a judgmental person either. I’m not far right, nor am I far left. I’m the type of person who stands firm in what I believe in, but I don’t care about polarizing discussions/topics because those discussions/topics don’t effect me one way or the other. I’m opinionated, yes. But that doesn’t mean I always need or want it to be heard. I can be stubborn at times, but most of the time it’s for a good reason. If there’s anything else you’d like to know about me, feel free to ask.

On my profile, I will also post ads that pertain to the cgl based community because I am a cg/dd myself. So if you ignore me because of this, I understand. That lifestyle/community isn’t for everyone. But if it intrigues you, or you yourself are in the cgl subreddit community too, please feel free to reach out as well.

If you’d like to see what I look like, I’d be happy to send you a photo of myself through chat (or whatever mutual social platform we both have), as I’m aware that mutual attraction does play a part in establishing a romantic relationship.

I apologize for this post being so long; but if you’ve read this far I’d like to thank you for doing so. And to show that me you’ve read all the way through to the end, please start your message with your favorite color.

As long as this post is up, or has been reposted, I’m still looking.

I hope to hear from someone soon. And I hope you all find what you’re looking for as well.
