It should be "shout" or "shot" but that would attract way too much attention for my taste! I'd much rather no one heard but that one person attuned to your wavelength, you know? Much sweeter. (Let's just ignore my intrinsic shyness and never mention it again, ok? Ok.)

So what's this whisper about?

I'm looking for my person, as cheesy as that sounds, and that will always start with friendship. I don't think you can build anything solid without a genuine friendship at the base. It might be just my demisexuality talking but you need to know, respect and appreciate a person before you fall for who they are. So I'm looking for someone that wants to know and be known.

That brings us to the things you should maybe know about me before you decide whether you want to reach out or not! I'm a big fan of being upfront and honest, after all :) I'm vegan and childfree, and they're both equally important facts about myself. I won't date someone that wants (or has) children, nor someone disrespectful of my ethical choices. I also have a part time job, which is the best all around work-private life balance that I personally find acceptable.

But who am I past the possible dealbreakers?

If you ever made your own posts or any sort of dating profile, you know how hard that one actually is to answer! We all contain multitudies, and picking which aspects of ourselves to share is hard.

I should at least try and put my best foot forward, though, right? What do I think my best qualities are?

I'm patient, for one. Dedicated. Loyal. Understanding. I do my best to be honest about who I am. Basically... I'm here, I listen, and I care. I also find it incredibly hard to form bonds with other people. So, when it does happen, I hold on to them and treasure them as something special. I'll do my best to make things work if I care about you.

This one is buried deep down, and not very obvious at a first... second... or even third glance... but I'm kind of a hopeless romantic. I'd be hard pressed to admit it in a normal conversation, but I don't think there's anything more important in life than the people you get to know along the way. And I'd really love to meet someone who's just going to... stay, for a while.

Usually in posts like these there's a significant section about interests and hobbies. I'm not sure how important this actually is in judging possible compatibility, other than to give an idea of how one prefers to spend their time. In my case it's inside the house, either gaming or watching movies/TV series, learning something new on duolingo (these days it's the music lessons!), cooking, telling my friends I will totally start working out tomorrow. I also like board games, and I'm into activity based outings, with the right company, which is as far as my social streak goes currently!

If any of this intrigued you, drop a message and let's see if we vibe :)
