🎵"I just wanna be somebody to someone, oh"🎶 -Banners, "Someone to You"

TL;DR - looking for a companion who, if things go well, may evolve into more, naturally. I'm not pushing for a relationship or marriage immediately.

I've been single a very long time, voluntarily, and after an extended period of getting my life back together after a couple nasty breakups and a bit of a Tailspin, I'm thinking I'm ready for a new chapter with someone who could become someone special.

I'm 33, have a full time job, not afraid of an LDR, within reason, after I've gotten to know you some. I'm not greedy, I don't mind helping my partner if I can, but I will not be used. With that out of the way...

I'm Jason. I like reading, cooking, and lots of nerd stuff. I'll give you all the attention you could ever want. I'll help you build a DnD character or Campaign. I'll send you memes and pictures that remind me of you, I'll send you dumb jokes sometimes, I'll order food for us on a stay home date ..

I don't mind outdoors either. A nice walk in fall, fishing and camping, and hiking in the spring and summer, sledding or walking after a fresh snowfall in the winter...all good things. I'm also into Motorsports. I'm not against going out to dinner and a movie, or a concert, or something like that. I can only take it in small doses cause I hate crowds and they give me headaches and anxiety.

Physical, cause that matters to some folks; 5'10", Husky, Dark hair that sits about medium length, greenish eyes. I wear glasses that look like they've been through hell, cause they have. They're probably older than anything I own. Your picture gets mine. Or you can just look at my profile picture and tack on about 4 or 5 years. I probably should update it, but it's literally me. I've lost weight since, but it's mostly the same.

Mental: I'm pretty smart, I like to laugh. Sometimes at bad jokes, sometimes at funny movies, sometimes it's the kid getting hit in the face with a softball, but I genuinely hope he's ok. I like good conversation as long as it's not one- sided. I don't mind small talk, but hopefully there's something deeper. Share your opinions on things, I promise I won't freak on you.

Other stuff: Music is important to me, hence the opening sentence above. I listen to lots of stuff, too much to list here. I lean towards pop-punk, emo, and alternative. I play videogames, card games, board games, I watch some anime, some cop shows, some movies, but there just isn't enough time in the day. As long as I'm enjoying myself, I don't usually care what it is I'm doing. My love languages are Time Spent together and Physical Contact. I'll also cook for you.

I have a cat, a Fluffy, Chunky Calico Girl named River, after River Tam. I'll send you pictures if you prefer to see her first. Lol.

If you've made it this far, thanks.

I'm not particularly picky, my standards are not particularly high. I'm honest, loyal, can be a little cranky sometimes, but hey, that's how it be sometimes. I'm a flawed individual, like most people are, but I'm trying to be better, to do better. To be aware and cognizant of your flaws and to push on despite them, is to Be Strong, to Be Human.

You: preferably within 5-8 years of myself, though exceptions can be made, within reason. Know what you want. I'm an adult. I can handle "I don't see this working out, goodbye, best of luck." I'm not picky as long as you take care of yourself. I actually like curvy girls more. I'd prefer you don't smoke cigs, weed's fine, drinking occasionally is fine. I don't smoke anything, I do drink a couple beers every now and then, but that's about it

I'd like someone who is okay with texting during the day and calls after work. Even better if we can play something together. I will show equal effort and respect. After about 11pm EST is when I have the most free time, up until about 4am, though I'll make exceptions if I really like you. I'll still text while at work, or call if I'm on a lunch break, but I am still at work.

I'm an open book. If you wanna just talk for a few days and see what happens, cool. Check my post history if you want more details and don't want to ask. Not the first post I've made, certainly not the last. The last time I posted something like this it was like, 6 in the morning. Hopefully this is a better time period for engagement and exposure.
