Hey there,

Love, love, and love. A wandering hopeful romantic in search of a meaningful connection.

About Me:

I'm a Texan with small-town roots, currently thriving in the big city of Chicago as a medical student. My South Asian heritage adds a touch of cultural richness to my life.

Hobbies & Interests:

While shared interests are a bonus, I value a genuine connection above all. Here’s a bit about what I enjoy:

• Movies: I love movie nights and frequently host them with a selection that ranges from "Inception" and "Godzilla Minus One" to classics like "The Thing" (1982), "Whiplash," and "Shutter Island." Expect snacks and drinks—my cooking is as intense as Terence Fletcher from "Whiplash."
• Cuisine: I enjoy exploring various cuisines at restaurants and trying new recipes at home. Thai, Mediterranean, and Indian foods are my favorites.
• Staying Active: I balance my love for food with running, walking, and lifting. You might find me on the Bloomingdale Park Trail or strolling through Union Park.
• Other Interests: Reading, board games, video games, and learning new languages. I love the strategy and fantasy of board games and think it would be fun to converse in different languages. Mon amour. Mahal ko.

Personality:

I'm a blend of reserved and adventurous, serious yet playful when comfortable. A homebody at heart, I still enjoy venturing out. I go the extra mile for my partner, often showing my love through cards, poems, and physical affection.

Physical Description:

I have mid-neck-length, subtly curly hair, usually clean-shaven but sometimes with well-maintained stubble. My complexion is caramel, with dark brown eyes, a slim-to-average physique, and I stand 5'7".

About You:

I'm looking for someone who values a healthy and active lifestyle, and takes care of themselves physically. Physical affection is important to me, and I appreciate a slightly clingy partner—it’s nice to feel wanted. Vulnerability is key for me, as it fosters a deeper connection. I value companionship and reciprocity, appreciating mutual effort and understanding. Open-mindedness, calmness, and versatility are qualities I find attractive.

Other Stuff:

• Religion & Politics: I'm not religious but open-minded about all faiths. Politically, I avoid polarizing views, valuing independent thinking and the evolution of my beliefs.
• Kids & Pets: I've decided not to have children to focus on my partner, hobbies, and career. I prefer not to have pets but am willing to accommodate.

Consistent communication and a genuine desire to converse are all I ask. If you're not interested, honesty is appreciated—I won't take it personally.

Looking forward to connecting.
