33-year-old Calgary lesbian looking for a friend with benefits. Blue Cross preferred. Will also settle for friendship, casual and long term dating, and Manulife.

More about me: I’m a plus sized masc, about 5’7”-5’8”, who works the night shift at a healthcare job so niche even the nurses don’t know what I do. I hope to change that soon and go back to school for my LPN—it is my dream to work in a profession where my Starbucks addiction will not only be accepted but respected. On my free time I volunteer, enjoy trying new restaurants, like catching a movie or a concert, like axe throwing (no, I’m not good at it), and have been known to sit in coffee shops while my friends talk at me. I’m a big pet person, and currently have a little Siamese cat to boss me around.

Whether I’m to be considered a nerd or a geek has been hotly debated (mostly by me), but I enjoy single player video games, Marvel and action movies, and comedies/adult animation. My taste in music is varied: I love alternative rock, pop, hip hop, and a small amount of heavy metal and EDM. The only country music I’ll willingly admit to listening to is Chris Stapleton. I’m not huge on anime, reality TV, or horror, but I will indulge from time to time. I’m not a big drinker, don’t smoke, but I do smoke weed occasionally (like once every few months).

I’m an outgoing people person of an introvert. I’m a human golden retriever who will strike up conversations and try to make friends wherever I go, but once my social battery dies and I become overwhelmed I’ll be quiet and reserved. What I’m saying is I’m both the life of the party and the girl hiding in the corner, petting the dog and hoping no one tries to talk to her, with maybe some middle ground.

I’m looking for someone local (or close enough), aged 25-40, monogamous. Race, size, gender identity doesn’t matter. I do prefer femmes and soft mascs, but I’m really open to anyone. I like kindness, compassion, and a sense of humour (or, at least, someone to laugh at my jokes). I find people who can communicate their feelings honestly and healthily so sexy. I value consistency and stability—predictability, if you will.

I’m pretty easygoing—if you’ve gotten this far and are still interested, please don’t hesitate to drop me a line. Tell me about the stuff that never fails to make you happy, funny things your pets do, or the best concert you’ve been to. I’d love to hear it.
