Hi!
I'm 37, I look much younger, most think I'm in my late 20s, and some people think I'm cute. I've been single for several years now, never married no kids, the dating apps feel so transactional and shallow and I want something more than that. I'm doing all right in life generally, licensed nurse and own my home, but single life is definitely not my preference. I like to feel like I'm navigating all of lifes inevitable challenges as a team with someone that's there for me that I can support in turn.
A bit about me but I'd like to preface by saying I'm not looking for a clone of myself, having interests in common is nice for sure but I think differences can make a relationship stronger, I want to experience life with someone that is open to my interests and passions and I'm excited for you to share yours with me.
I've dated people of all genders but find my energy best matches non-cis men, and usually queer afab folks. My politics are informed by my identity and are important to me, I shy away from ideological labels as they often come with presumptions and dogma but I'll say I believe everyone should have access to all the resources they need to survive and be fulfilled and I wouldn't settle for anything less than total liberation. I've been vegan for over 20 years and vegetarian a few more years longer.
I'm into nerdy stuff, play video games with friends online, anime, tv/film, novels etc. I like music a lot of a bunch of varieties, punk rock saved my life as a teenager as it gave me a community to be a part of and was explicitly political. I also like a lot of other genres tho, sharing tracks, listening to music is fun for me. I used to travel a lot more and have been to almost every city in NA, I definitely want to make sure travel, camping, nature etc is a part of my life. I love animals, you can tell a lot about someone by how they treat animals.
Idk, people are complicated and it's hard to synthesize myself in a couple paragraphs. I'm looking for a connection, ideally within a one day drive of Nola so we can actually hang out. I'm open to poly or monog. I want to have fun experiences, get to know you, eat/cook great food, hold hands, and generally make the backdrop of this wartorn capitalist hellscape less miserable.
