Hello(!) to all of you wonderful people looking for ~love~ here on r/gentlefemdomr4r! I'm a 24 year old heavily sub leaning switch man looking to develop a friendly connection that blossoms into a mutually beneficial, longstanding monogamous romantic relationship with a gentle domme who wants to get as much love and praise as she gives~

• About Me and My Hobbies:
  • Here's a SFW picture of me, my current weight is 196 pounds and my height is around 5'10". Lookin' good, yeah? Don't rush to send me a message just yet, we've got a lot more to go!
  • I'm currently making my own game while looking for a second job in the quest for self-sufficiency! My dream is to make a living creating video games, they're my greatest passion in life. For now though, I'm putting more effort into ensuring that I can stand on my own two feet.
  • I also love writing, specifically writing characters/exploring the relationships between characters, but hopefully my passion for prose also shines through here!
  • I studied Japanese in college and somehow ended up watching LESS anime, but I did get a cool degree out of it and I can play even cooler games now :) Admittedly, that's mostly because I struggle with watching shows and movies on my own.
  • I have ADD! I'm not currently medicated for it because I'm able to function very well in my day to day, but should that change I would be more than happy to consider taking meds again.
  • I play DND with my friends every week! I like it because I get to write up interesting new characters and act as them, but it's also just the best way to get together with my friends consistently.
  • I'm currently seeing a therapist weekly. I've just experienced a tragedy last month, so things aren't amazing but I am making positive progress.
  • I've recently fallen in love with American comics! I'm a huge fan of Tom King's Wonder Woman: Outlaw run and Daniel Hickman's Ultimate Spider-man run, but I'm also into alternative(?) comics like Helen of Wyndhorn and Briar. (Alternative as in, not dc/marvel/superhero related.)
  • I'm also a big fan of manga in general, I have been since I was in elementary school! But since I don't have a lot of space left for physical volumes, I'm not quite as involved anymore.
• What I'd love to do with a partner:
  • Play video games together! (Pretend to be surprised.) Whether one of us is just watching or we're both playing, I'd really like to share such a big part of my life with you. Even if you're not big into games, as long as you're willing to listen and learn it would be so huge for me! I promise I'll do the same for your interests.
  • Watch bad/shlocky movies! I love to talk all over one with my friends as we watch. It's always so much fun to make silly jokes and laugh at awful line reads or goofy dialogue. It's one of my favorite things to do with friends, and I'd love to experience it with you.
  • Make something together! Whatever suits your skills or interests, I'd love to make a book, comic, short film, video game, anything! Just as long as it's with you.
• Non-negotiable characteristics I’m looking for in a partner:
  • Empathy
  • Honesty
  • Intelligent
  • Politically Left-Leaning
  • Wants kids someday. I want to make special emphasis here that I really do want to be a dad. I want to raise kids with the girl of my dreams, as a team!!! I'm gonna love the shit outta those little freaks!

I don't want to do anything sexual for about 2-3 months. Admittedly, this is taken straight from professional dating coach Chantal Heide, but according to her it is fantastic at building emotional intimacy. A heaping helping of it, and a great deal of trust, is what I need to feel comfortable with someone in a sexual setting. To be clear, kissing isn't allowed but discussions of sexual topics is, so long as it starts and stays clinical. Put another way, sexual talk is allowed as long as the intent is to inform/discuss and not arouse. We can talk about how long we actually want to take, so long as there's plenty of intimacy and trust when we finally do take that step forward. Even though I might need a good while before I'm down to do anything sexual, here's my kinklist so you can see if we're sexually compatible. Now's about as good a time as any to say that I'm a virgin, all the way. I've never been in a real relationship, either. That said, I'm very eager to learn more about being a good partner in and out of bed. All I ask for is some grace, which I'll be sure to grant you plenty of, too.

That just about covers it! If you've read it all the way through, I can't thank you enough! There's definitely more to me than what I wrote in this post, so if you're interested in learning even more about me, please send me a Reddit chat or DM. To prove that you've read this far, please answer at least one of the following questions in your introductory message:

• A: What's a piece of art/media that left a significant impression on you recently and why?
• B: What's a live event you'd like to go to someday and why?
• C: What your favorite song you've been listening to recently?

And then please also tell me what you liked about my ad, about yourself, and include a SFW picture of yourself like the one I provided. Feel free to put your own spin on things and add anything else you so please. I look forward to meeting you! <3 <3 <3
