I better explain what that means. Forgive me if I’m a little sloppy; I haven’t written in a while.

I’m 19, trans and generally androgynous (despite my gender leaning towards being a gal). I do tend to fail most of the time, so I’m probably closer to a dude-lite than anything. Trying to express your gender in a way that feels authentic and also doesn’t alienate me from my circles is a difficult balance I haven’t mastered yet. We try. 

I’m looking for a dude who’ll take the time to listen to me, and to grow a mutual caring relationship for. I am a huge romantic, so romance is something that I’d always love to try, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be romantic. I’m a fairly open person when it comes to the kinds of relationships I have, so it can be whatever we want it to be.

I recently got out of the hospital (like, very recently), and as someone who’s still recovering, I wanna meet someone who’s open to me trying to figure things out. I’m working on becoming someone that I admire, but I find that the road of growth is a difficult and lonely one. Naturally, I wanna draw boundaries so I don’t step on your toes, but I wanna be able to share my stupid thoughts. They’re stupid, sappy and a little bit dark, so if this sounds like it’d be an good experience, hit me up.

I like consumer technology, music (and music production), anime, languages, art, cats and baking. I’d say if I’m going to work on something, it’s usually one of these things. I’m really into STEM when it comes to content on the internet, so if you spot me watching a video essay, it’s usually about sociology and the ways that humans interact on the internet, or something STEM related. I like when people research something and present the information in a concise way. It’s neat! Let’s watch Kurzgesagt together. 

Recently I've been really into cars, so if you’re a car guy, I’d love for you to talk cars with me. I wanna know more about them, I wanna talk about car brands and car parts and all the little things in a car that make it go from point A to point B.

I can be a bit dense, so if I ask a lot of questions or don’t understand something, forgive me. I do try to get most things, my brain just doesn’t connect the dots half of the time, and I wind up asking follow-up questions or just accepting that I do not understand.

That reminds me: recently I’ve realized that I have a problem with my hearing. Kinda irrelevant for a reddit post, but when talking on the phone, it can pose a mild issue. I do love voice conversations (not necessarily via a phone call), but like my brain not connecting the dots, I literally cannot understand half of the things that people say. I’m constantly asking “Hmm? Can you repeat that again”, so I also ask for patience in my shitty ears and my terrible processor. As always, we try.

I try my hardest to be an open book, so feel free to ask me questions (provided they aren’t rude/charged questions). I also try to be as sweet as I can be.
