You might say, "Woah." when you open this. That's understandable. TLDWR? Believe me, it's actually just commonsensical as it should be.

Bit pissed off, so make me happy, yeah?

If you've seen this post before, don't worry. I've found people, lots actually. It's just that I tend to distill them down to one, two, or three people every time I post. Distilled to those whom I have truly connected with and those who truly understand what I need. I just got out of a relationship, so I'm open to anything.

I'm looking for new connections, maybe constants to expand my current network. I'm open to anything (just don't take this literally).

Just a heads up, I'm usually up at night. I like the quiet time. So, expect late night conversations, late lunches. I'm up in the morning but not really in the entertaining mood because that's the latter part of my day.

I'm from the South of Manila, but I grew up in the East. Not too far south though.

If it all works out, and turns out to be a regular thing. I would love to have new people to share memes with and the occasional ranting. Constants would be nice, that'll be comforting. I'm not married to the idea of having one person to constantly talk to, but if you want exclusivity, just state your intentions and we can discuss it.

Spontaneity is key. It'll be amazing if you're a great conversationalist.

ABOUT YOU:

● It's okay if you're significantly younger or older, as long as you're not ageist.

● Totally fine if you won't send pics, since I don't think pictures would have any bearing to just talking over the phone. I'm just mainly asking for voice calls. I like it old school. I won't send you mine (my pics) unless I'm already comfortable to, so please refrain from asking me for some on the get-go. So no pressure, I don't need to know how you look like, I don't even care how you look like. I just want someone whom I can talk to.

● Hopefully you're from the South so that if things go well we can prolly hangout in the future, nothing NSFW.

This is really important:

Why pick guys?

Most of the stuff I like are more "manly" stuff than girly stuff. Not being s*xist here, it's just a matter of convenience.

SIDEBAR: Just to be blunt, since some might misinterpret this part as something that may come off that I think I'm better than other girls (which I find extremely toxic), I'm just saying this just so I won't waste my time and yours in finding out we don't share common interests after I EXPLICITLY SAID THAT I LIKE MORE MALE-DOMINATED INTERESTS than those interests that are female-dominated. Don't misconstrue this for something else.

● You can be from any school, totally fine, as long as you're not a know-it-all or condescending. But if it matters, I'm from the Big 4. Went to grad school since I was supposed to teach. Didn't continue since it's too far from the South, don't wanna go all the way to QC after teaching in Manila.

● You can be married, in a relationship, single, or confused about whatever/whomever you want in life, I won't have judgments towards you. I'm not looking for anything more than just having people whom I could talk to on the daily.

ABOUT ME:

● My profile says a lot about me, so, you can check it out to get a gist of what you're about to delve into. Once you've seen my profile, it ain't all about sx , *I hope you know how to read between the lines.** If my music taste matters, playlists are on my profile. The movies on my bio are the movies that best describe me and my life.

● I like voice calls. My voice is tolerable, I do voiceover work professionally. PLEASE DON'T ASK ME FOR SAMPLES. I find that tad annoying.

● For those who want to know how I look like: I'm not a looker. Let's leave it at that. LOL

Updating this part: I may look good to others, I may not look good to you. It's just that I exist not to please anyone so don't be disappointed if I ain't the one you expect because I'm not here to please you. I'm not fugly. I'm not thin. I'm not fat. I have a mix of Chinese-Spanish traits. Figure it out yourself if you really wanna know how I look like.

● I write for a living (and NO, I don't write novels, short stories, or poetry, or fiction in general). Used to work in media, now I'm in a related field.

● I had to add this, coz recently I've had guys who had misinterpreted how I am. So I'm innately sweet, not really clingy (unless you want me to be), and most guys whom I have talked to had misinterpreted this as "feelings". It isn't. You would know if I really have feelings for you, believe me.

We can talk about anything, ranging from SFW topics to NSFW ones. But please, don't ask me for a list of topics I like or hate. I prefer spontaneity.

Just so we're clear, I am not open to hooking up. Never was. I'm not posting to get laid. This ain't one of those posts that are guised as an SFW post. I really just need a different perspective on things. I like learning new people. New ideas. Get to know them. I'm more open to be intimate, but not s*xual--if you get my drift,* I just want to meet new people since I rarely go out to mingle, I'd rather expand my network by talking to people who would want this kind of set up to start. It's something I need to do for work as well since I need to know more about other people so that I'd be more sensitive to different kinds of personalities and thought processes. And about being constants, well, it's something I'm game for.

Please don't start the conversation with anything s*xual, I'd appreciate that A LOT. The "we can talk about anything" isn't my consent for you to say literally anything to me. I hope you get what I mean.

I've encountered people who do not practice proper etiquette and just blabbed their way into starting a conversation with me with no regard if what they're saying is TOO INVASIVE or INTRUSIVE to start off, OFFENSIVE, or just downright UNFILTERED. AGAIN, do not take "we can talk about anything" literally. It's not a pass to leave your manners outside the door.

If you want pieces of ADVICE, THEN ASK FOR SOME. You don't have to delve into the details of my personal life before you ask anything.

You can ask me for NSFW advice, or anything that won't lead to being asked if we could hook up. Again, I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A HOOK UP. I have reiterated that enough.

Just looking for people who are sensible and interesting to talk to. As regularly as possible, since I struggle with object permanence with those people who just say "hi" when they want to. :)

If you want solid, no BS pieces of advice, just ask away. I won't judge you.

I prefer intros other than "hi", "hey", "hello". Please don't be uncouth.

This post might be long but if you had the time to read it, I appreciate that you're keen with details.

These aren't really "requirements", I'm not picky. I'm just saying in a more elaborate manner: I hope you're a good person.

See you in a bit.
