Hello reddit! Flings confetti and glitter from wizard sleeves!

I am a 31 year old trans woman hoping to find and build a friendship that will develop into something deeper. I’d like to talk to someone who wants to share in the effort of fostering a connection. So, I’m seeking someone who’s interested in something longer term, and interested in talking daily. I wouldn't be opposed to meeting, traveling, or relocating. 

A little about me: 

• I love to read! My all time favorite genre is Romance *many shock*, *much awe*. I’m a hopeless romantic and a sucker for the “friends to more” troupe. One of my favorites is Birthday, by Meredith Russo. I'm also an avid reader of Poetry,  Fantasy, and Scifi! I’d love to hear if you have any recommendations for any of these, or have written some poetry you’d be willing to share ^-^. 
• I love to watch Movies and TV shows. There’s nothing like spending an entire rainy day curled up on the couch watching your favorite comfort narrative! Also, nostalgia is one hell of a drug, I can't resist a good movie from the 80’s and 90’s and 00’s! Some of my favorite shows are Parks and Rec, Frasier, Brooklyn 99, Star Trek, Fullmetal Alchemist (hehe Brotherhood, obviously). Maybe we can find ourselves curled up on the couch watching our favorite shows together. 
• I love video games! I’ve played World of Warcraft on and off again since vanilla, and am looking to get back into it for the new expansion. There’s nothing quite as fun as hunting for those holy grail items from past and current expansions. Would love to have some folks to play with and get back into the swing of things. I also love to play Overwatch 2, Sekiro, BG3, NES & N64 games). If you're more into single player games, don’t let that turn you away ^-^. Some of my favorite gaming memories are sneaking downstairs at night and watching my older brother play Zelda: Ocarina of Time, so I'm happy to cheer you on through your next virtual adventure! 
• I like to stay moderately active, and eat healthy! I love to bike, when I was younger I would do longer organized rides. I try to ensure that my week is peppered with walks and hikes. I also love to cook meals at home, and plan 7 day dinner menus! My most recent favorites to cook are: English Pasties, Roasted Cauliflower Soup, Djon cracker crumble cod, and Confit byaldi (ratatouille). I would love to hear about your favorite recipes, recent meals, or share pictures of our meals from time to time ^-^.
• Music is an important part of my life (both listening and playing). I usually play by ear, and much of what I know is self learned rather than built on anything formal. My go to instruments are my drums, Bass, and Cello! Where some people may turn into crazy cat people post their 20s, I think I might have become a crazy instrument person XD; I have over 10 instruments!  Maybe we could start a garage band, Jam, or just share the tunes we like to listen to. 

I understand that compatibility comes in all forms, shapes, and creeds, and so I’ll try to outline what I think I am looking for, but ultimately leaving room for us to let that be defined organically. 

• Generally: The broad strokes would be someone who is single, monogamous, and available. Someone who likes to be active, even if just sharing a good walk. Someone who is kind, patient, and supportive, the world is a cold and hard place at times, let's make it a little better for each other. Someone interested in talking for a long time.
  
• Creative: It’s sad that all too often, we share the product of creativity and not the process. If this sounds like you, I'd love to hear from you, regardless of what form your creativity and art takes.
  
• Fun and Silly: I’m hoping you are a bonafide goober! Maybe you’d also love for the spaces between our monumental life moments to be filled with silly voices/songs, riffing/bantering jokes ad infinitum, and letting laughter bubble up between us.
  
• Curious: Maybe you are someone who likes to think about philosophical quandaries, and playing with foreign ideas. Maybe you are an avid learner, always striving to understand or learn that next new interest. Or maybe you're an ever flowing font of questions, looking for the truth of each other’s experiences . If so, I’d love to hear from you.
  

Things to be aware of:

• AuDHD (I am a perpetual asker of “So, what’s happening in the movie?”)
• My time zone is UTC -8, but I work both early and late hours. 
• I’ve been medically and socially transitioning since I was 24 (8 years). I’ve made major strides, but this journey isn’t over. Though I look amazing in my dresses, I have not gone through voice training, so voice calls can be a bit nerve wracking. I’m also pre-op, though do plan to have surgery in the future. 
• Broke a finger trying to break a pencil. Strength of bloodline is questionable XD

If any of the above speaks to you, do reach out, tell me a bit about yourself, and let’s find out together if we can build our hearts’ forever home.
