Hopefully, your interest has peaked, which is the first step…If they were, it would be pretty badass, and terrifying...wouldn’t it? I’m just grateful there are no Armadillos in the PNW.

I am looking for a serious, long-term, monogamous relationship with someone who is able to see the possibilities in life with me and experience them . I hope to start here on Reddit, and if there is a genuine mutual connection, continue outside of this platform with texts, calls or voice, emails, etc.
With time and connection, intimacy is fostered, for myself, friendship is what a strong and lasting relationship is built on. I would be thrilled to just talk, learn about you, and see where it goes. At the worst, we may become the best of friends.

I am currently in Oregon. That will be changing within the year, and I will be moving back to the Midwest East Coast. Long distance is…really tough, but I know it can be incredibly rewarding if you “vibe” and those involved are able, and willing, to put the time in, which I am, so I’m open to all possibilities.

If you are looking for someone to cherish, adore, and support you, are willing and able to be genuine, honest, and accept the emotional connection I hope we find, I would love to get to know you. To start with friendship and grow into something more, hopefully.

I am not focused on: Age, color, size, stability (mental or otherwise), defect or fault (perceived, imagined, or real) - I will accept you for who you are, if you allow me the chance to “see” you! That being said, it’s unlikely that anyone under the age of 35 would be able to bridge the age gap in experience and interests, but I’m game to try and see where it goes..

I am not interested in hooking up, or being someone's side piece. I want someone to be in my life, let me love them, be engaged, and hold me close to their heart as I will you to mine.

If you make it to the end, and are interested in seeing if we vibe, please reach out. I promise, if you do take that first step, I will respond, maybe with a slight delay but I WILL respond. What do you have to lose?

If you do reach out please include the name of the band or song at the bottom of this post. If you don’t or can’t be bothered to do so, I won’t engage. You are appreciated.

In no order of importance:

I am a straight, male.

I am single. I have no kids, but always wanted to build a family, it was just never the right time. I have no interest or capacity to be in an open or non-magnanimous relationship, I wish you the best if that is what you want.

I am not a Lumbersexual (no hate intended) who oils their beard (but I do have a beard...type thing) and some tattoos. If you aren't into beards and tattoos, probably not going to meet your requirements…since they are kinda..attached to me

I am a person of color. That color is chestnut brown. I am biracial. If that matters…STOP HERE, move on, have a great day!

I am what many would characterize as BIG. That means I have...like 2 Dad Bods. I am working on it, and have dropped 65lbs in the last 11 months, a slow process. I have a disability that makes some activities difficult, but I'm working on it. So there is that. If that matters to you …cool cool cool, have a lovely day.

I love music, food, traveling, cooking, stimulating conversation, comfortable silences, animals (with the exception of snakes or reptiles), film, TV and Literature of all genres. I am guilty of expressing myself in playlists, and it’s a guarantee that I will make them for you, or us, or…just because, and share them, if you enjoy that sort of thing.

I have some mobility issues after getting crushed on a motorcycle 8 years ago. That does make a number of outdoor activities a challenge. I do enjoy getting out and doing things, if that is YOUR jam…It just takes a bit longer, and some planning, but I am more than willing to dive into those things and activities you enjoy doing.

And lastly, as an attempt to express the kind of person and partner I am, I invite you to check out: “84 - Rajiv Dhall”
