I'm looking for a potential in real life friend who lives in or around Toronto. I'd love someone to go on adventures with. Explore, attend events, do activities together, and go to restaurants together. I'm also looking for someone that can show support for each other and count on one another. As of right now, everything I do(IRL), I do alone. A few examples of things I've recently done alone are attend concerts, a musical and went ice skating. I'd like to explore Southern Ontario via GO Train, perhaps you could join me on this adventure?

A little about me:

• I have been vegan for over 15 years.
• I don't drink, use drugs and smoke anything.
• I exercise routinely and hoping to add ice skating to my weekly routine. (Health is very important to me.)
• I value life and am anti-violence. Seeing violence in movies/tv shows does bring me discomfort at times...Depending on the context. However, it doesn't prevent me from watching it either.
• I crochet , but I haven't lately and have a couple of projects that are just sitting there. I could crochet you a little heart!
• I view myself as a progressive.
• I'm 6'3 and weigh about 170 lbs. I also have long messy hair.
• My background is Guyana. (Meaning that that my skin isn't white for you racists)
• I play Apex Legends too much(LETS PLAY TOGETHER!), but apparently Bloons has something to say about that.
• I listen to Neoclassical(epic music), some Synthwave, OSTs of movies/tv shows, Post-Hardcore/Metal. Concerts are fun!
• I have social anxiety issues and was diagnosed with bipolar 2 when I was 21, but I'm fairly certain that I don't have that. Oh, lovely trauma. I'm currently speaking with a therapist, which has been...Tumultuous? The "healing" process is a difficult one.
• I'm open, honest, kind, gentle, patient and affectionate. In other words, I'm amazing ;) However,
• I'm very sensitive and fragile (be kind and gentle with me! hahah). I don't do well with abrasiveness. If you're mean to me, I might begin to withdraw and become very quiet. I'm a very forgiving person though and don't hold grudges.

What I'm not looking for:

• A girlfriend/bestfriend. This isn't the purpose of this post, but whatever happens, happens.
• Group meet ups. I have a very difficult time being around groups and I tend to shut down.
• Someone to save me. If you can't accept me, for me, I'm not for you.
• Someone with attachment issues. I don't mean to sound ableist, but if you have a history of avoidance/running away, I'm not for you. However, if this is something you're working on, we can make things work as I'm a work in progress myself.

There's more I can say, but I think these are important and I would prefer that we get to know each other over a call and in person. I super look forward to meeting you and getting to know you!

I do have some boundaries though:

• We will not discuss politics unless you are anti-NATO and anti-imperialist.
• Please don't bring up your love for meat (or food in general). Veganism will not be brought up unless you're sincerely open to becoming one yourself.
• Please don't ask me about work or school. When I'm comfortable, I can talk to you about those things.

P.S. Please leave at least a short introduction of yourself and why you chose to contact me. Thank you!
