I feel a bit too vulnerable and silly posting this on Reddit, is that how it’s supposed to be?

I’m single, child-free, autistic, bi-romantic demi/ace (still figuring it out). The dream-like scenario of what I’m looking for would be something starting as a friendship and progressing into a long-time partnership. I’m okay with an LDR and would like to eventually settle down with a primary partner. That’s on dreams though, I’m open to anything that happens naturally and won’t try to force it into a specific mold.

Something we can bond over:

• Games. I’ve recently finished modding Morrowind into something more fast and stable yet vanilla-friendly, and god it still feels great! I love story-rich and text-based tittles as much as silly little games with unusual mechanics. Some of the games I’ve recently enjoyed: Roadwarden, Pentiment, Inscryption, Kingdom New Lands/Two Crowns, Stardew Valley, 80 Days, Astrologaster, Stacklands. In a love-hate relationship with the Sims series, mostly hating on Sims 4 and getting back to Sims 2 over and over again.

• Neurodivergency. I’ve been recently diagnosed with autism and strongly suspecting an accompanying ADHD. Most of my irl-friends are also autistic, and I noticed that I click with ND folks way more often.

• Books. I’ve read 50 books last year but don’t really have a favourite author or genre. It’s been more of an experiment to read as I used to as a teen, going blindly based on random recommendations or picking a book with a cool looking cover. I love memoirs, non-fiction that dives into some very specific topic, and sci-fi. Golden age sci-fi novels are painful though, any recommendations with female interests not getting a page-long boob description?

• Languages. I speak Ukrainian, Russian, Spanish, obviously English, and just started learning German. Random linguistics/translation/etymology facts fascinate me, and if I happen to have a crush on you, I’ll probably start frantically learning your language way too soon.

Some more interests: true crime, musicals, gardening, astrology, dogs.

I don’t want to talk about war. It’s awful, and I’d appreciate a distraction way more. Other than that, we probably won’t get along if you are not interested in politics and don’t have a clear stance on things.

When it comes to attraction, I’m more often driven to soft-masculinity regardless of gender. Height/weight doesn’t matter, but I’d prefer if you date solo and have no kids.

If I get messages from several people, it may take me some time to reply, so please bare with me. The post also doesn’t have an expiration date — if you see in a week, a month, or even later, feel free to hit me up!
