Hello reader!

I'm hoping to find someone who is willing to get to know me just as much as I want to get to know them! I'm an introvert who prefers getting to know someone on a deeper level- getting to know things they love, hate, and everything in between. Wouldn't it be nice to have someone who is there to support you during the rough times, relish in your successes, reminisce the good ol days, and (if you're comfortable) talk about your childhood and how your past molded you into your present self? I would love such an enriching and fulfilling friendship...

Just to give you an idea of who I am, here are just a few random factoids about me:

• I don't have many friends- I am very happily married (no kids) but it would be nice to have someone else to talk to. The few friends I have are usually pretty busy.

• I enjoy listening to someone talking about a topic they are passionate about. That intensity is intriguing and it shows me a lot about the person. I can usually keep up a conversation about anything, so it'll be fun to talk about something you love. It would be even better if this were reciprocated!

• I've been working on myself for the past 6 months (mentally and physically). I'm pretty proud of what I've accomplished so far and am looking forward to finally reaching my goal this next year!

• short list of my favorite things (this is not at all an exhaustive list): - music: metal (folk/industrial/others), 80s synth, classical - movies: LoTR, interstellar, ex machina, Her, Silent Hill, anything from Miyazaki - shows: Star Trek (Next Gen/strange new worlds) Haunting of Hill House, Demon Slayer

I would prefer discord or telegram, but we can start with reddit chat and go on from there. Please be within 6 years of my age. I would love to hear from you if you think we'd get along well. Tell me a bit about yourself and whether you prefer sending long messages back and forth or shorter ones, or something in between.

Hope to hear from you!
