TLDWR? Believe me. It's not as dragging nor nonsensical as you think. LOL

Already gained great friends from here and I'd love more. I like exchanging ideas and seeing things in different perspectives and I appreciate that they vent out without hesitation. Be the help they need.

I like being, to quote one of them, "the breath of fresh air" they were looking for.

But some good things should come to an end. I'm now open to finding new connections, from friends to possibly constants. Not married to the idea of just having one constant person to talk to since that's unnecessary pressure I don't wanna impose. But if you really want it to be just you just tell me, I hope you hold up your end of the bargain.

Just a heads up, I'm usually up at night. I like the quiet time. So, expect late night conversations, late lunches. I'm up in the morning but not really in the entertaining mood because that's the latter part of my day.

So...

Let me start with, I'm from the South of Manila. But I grew up in the East. Not too far south.

So again, I'm looking for someone fun to talk to, if it works out, I hope it turns out to be a regular thing. I would love to have new friends to share memes with and the occasional ranting. Constants would be nice, that'll be comforting.

Let's be spontaneous, It'll be amazing if you're a great conversationalist.

About you:

● It's okay if you're significantly younger or older, as long as you're not ageist.

● Totally fine if you won't send pics, since I don't think pictures would have any bearing to just talking over the phone. I'm just mainly asking for voice calls. I like it old school. Just so you know, I won't send you mine (my pics) unless we're comfy with each other, so please refrain from asking me for some in the get-go. So no pressure, I don't need to know how you look like, I don't even care how you look like. I just want someone whom I can talk to.

● Hopefully you're from the South so that if things go well we can prolly hangout in the future, nothing NSFW. Just platonic. But hey, whatever happens, happens, so I guess I'm up for anything, but just to be perfectly clear: I am not looking for a hook up.

This is really important:

Why pick guys?

Most of the stuff I like are more manly stuff than girly stuff. Not being s*xist here, it's just a matter of convenience.

SIDEBAR: Just to be blunt, since some might misinterpret this part as something that may come off that I think I'm better than other girls (which I find extremely toxic), I'm just saying this part just so I won't waste my time and yours, in finding out we don't share common interests after I EXPLICITLY SAID THAT I LIKE MORE MALE-DOMINATED INTERESTS than those interests that are socially female-dominated.

● You can be from any school, totally fine, as long as you're not a know-it-all or condescending. But if it matters, I'm from the Big 4. Went to grad school since I was supposed to teach. Didn't continue since it's too far from the South, don't wanna go all the way to QC from teaching in Manila.

● You can be married, in a relationship, single, or confused about whatever/whoever you want in life, I won't have any judgments towards you. I'm not looking for anything more than just having people whom I could talk to on the daily. I'm now open for whatever.

About me:

● My profile says a lot about me, so if you want, you can check it out to get a gist of what you're about to delve into. Once you've seen my profile, it ain't all about s*x , I hope you know how to read between the lines. If my music taste matters, you can ask for my playlist. The movies on my bio are the movies that best describe me and my life.

● I like voice calls. Don't worry, my voice is tolerable, I do voiceover work professionally. PLEASE DON'T ASK ME FOR SAMPLES. I find that tad annoying.

● For those who want to know how I look like: I'm not a looker. Let's leave it at that. LOL

Updating this part: I may look good to others, I may not look good to you. It's just that I exist not to please anyone so don't be disappointed if I ain't the one you expect because I'm not here to please you. I'm not fugly. I'm not thin. I'm not fat. I have a mix of Chinese-Spanish traits. Figure it out yourself if you really wanna know how I look like.

● I write for a living (and NO, I don't write novels, short stories, or poetry, or fiction). Used to work in media, now I'm in a related field.

● I had to add this, coz recently I've had guys who had misinterpreted how I am. So I'm innately sweet, not really clingy (unless you want me to be), and most guys whom I have talked to had misinterpreted this as "feelings". It isn't. You would know if I really have feelings for you, believe me.

● If you have a false sense of privacy, spare me. If you want more than the online facade please, know what to offer. I grind my teeth with the idea of fake profiles and assumptions. So, SPARE ME.

We can talk about anything, ranging from SFW topics to NSFW ones. But please, don't ask me for a list of topics I like or hate. I prefer spontaneity.

Just so we're clear, I am not open to hooking up. I'm not posting to get laid. I just need a different perspective on things. New ideas. Get to know new people. I'm more open to be intimate, but not s*xual--if you get my drift, I just want to meet new people since I rarely go out to mingle, I'd rather expand my network by talking to people who would want this kind of set up to start. It's something  I do for work as well since I need to know more about other people so that I'd be more sensitive to different kinds of personalities and thought processes. And about being constants, well, it's not for a relationship.

Please don't start the conversation with anything s*xual, I'd appreciate that A LOT. The "we can talk about anything" isn't my consent for you to say literally anything to me. I hope you get what I mean.

• I've encountered people who do not practice proper etiquette and just blabbed their way into starting a conversation with me with no regard if what they're saying is TOO INVASIVE to start off, OFFENSIVE, or just downright UNFILTERED. AGAIN, do not take "we can talk about anything" literally. It's not a pass to leave your manners outside the door.*

If you want pieces of ADVICE, THEN ASK FOR SOME. You don't have to delve into the details of my personal life before you ask anything.

You can ask me for NSFW advice, or anything that won't lead to being asked if we could hook up. Again, I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A HOOK UP. I have reiterated that enough.

Just looking for people who are sensible and interesting to talk to. As constants. Hopefully, not temporary. I'm just not up for any BS.

If you want solid, no BS pieces of advice, just ask away. I won't judge you.

I prefer intros other than "hi", "hey", "hello".

This post might be long but if you had the time to read it, I appreciate that you're keen with details.

See you in a bit.
