Hello R4R Toronto!

I've made a couple of posts like this in the past but chicken out a few hours after I've posted them and never let them see much of the light of day, but since I'm laying in bed unable to sleep (too anxious for test I'm going to be doing later today) atm thought I'd give this another go!

I 27M 5'9" am a white guy with an average to slightly overweight leaning on a dad bod build (27 on the BMI index for those who care) originally from the east coast. Moved to the GTA (located east of Toronto around the Pickering area of the GTA) last year in pursuit of applying my degree to a meaningful career... It's a long story so I'll spare you the details 🤔

I'm well versed in cleaning, laundry, and cooking. Since moving to Ontario I've been experimenting more with cooking and when I'm not improving my basic cooking skills, I am mostly learning to cook Asian style dishes as I've also been trying to improve my chopsticks skills at the same time!

I am into stained glass, board/video games (by no means a gamer just a fun pastime), nostalgic cartoons / tv shows, rock hounding, lapidary, and pixel art / 3D modeling 😅 and anything else that catches my attention that I decide to throw my attention to 🤔

By music taste I'm mostly into rock / metal based on my Spotify playlist.

I'm chatty by nature (ambivert) and tend to ramble when I'm nervous (if you haven't noticed 😩) so if you are shy or love a talker that's me! 😅

I don't really have a "type" but more just a general / rough guidelines of what I'm looking for: Female, 22-30 ( /- a year or so also ok), white to medium-tan in complexion, skinny to average leaning on mom bod figure. Preferably I'd also like to find someone university educated, but not being so isn't a deal breaker 🙂

I'm a big fan of physical touch (like hand holding, cuddling, hugging), which is something you obviously lack being single so if you also crave that then bonus for both of us!

I'm not looking to rush into anything as a personal philosophy of mine is that the mental / emotional aspect is just as, if not more important than the physical element of a relationship. So if you're looking for a deeper connection as well that's awesome!

At the end of the day all I'm looking for us someone I can say / text good morning / night too, ask about their day, occasionally spend time with! I realize you are your own person and have your own life to live, so I'm just looking for someone to share a part of it with 🙂

I also try to be mindful of you and your inputs so I will probably sound like a broken record at times. This could be manifested in things like establishing / respecting your boundaries, checking in on your thoughts / comfort level, offering an ear to vent to, as at my goal is to never force you to do something you don't want to do 🙂

I'm an open book so if you have any questions you want to ask fire away and I will entertain any questions you may have be it SFW or NSFW doesn't matter!

If you've made it this far and feel I may be what you are looking send me a DM with a picture and little bit about yourself! I'll reciprocate a picture with my response though fair warning I'm not photogenic, though if you are photogenic that just means I can be your photographer 😅

TL:DR Just a guy looking for someone to compliment his life and hope to do the same in return!
