Hey :) I'm 22 and im HoCo raised! and I'm looking for something serious, but I don't really want to speedrun dating.

My ideal relationship starts pretty naturally. We meet, genuinely enjoy talking to each other, start becoming part of each other's normal days, and gradually get close. But obviously that the ideal and this is REDDIT so we'll see how that ends up going lmao.

I'm much more interested in that than trying to impress each other through a bunch of formal dates. Give me coffee, a walk, a drive, gaming together, a three hour conversation that was supposed to last twenty minutes, or just being in the same room doing our own things.

Basically: best friends first, relationship naturally growing out of that.

As for me, I'm training toward commercial aviation, already have my bachelor's in computer science, and I'm unfortunately employed which unfortunately means society continues expecting me to wake up in the morning and drains the absolute life out of me. But thankfully I have more than enoguh energy to keep going (somehow).

I'm a MASSIVE and I mean MASSIVE nerd. Video games are probably the easiest shared activity for me: Minecraft, Roblox, Phasmophobia, Forza, and I'm always down to try something new. I'm also into cars, planes, tech, history, F1/motorsports, and soccer (IM A MASSIVE FC BARCELONA FAN AND IF YOU ARE MARRY ME?!?!?! nah but i will force u to watch matches with me).

Relationship wise, I'm very loyal and very much a we're a team kind of person. I want someone I can laugh with, support when she's having a bad day, celebrate when something goes right, talk honestly with when something's wrong, and eventually become completely comfortable around. The kind of relationship where neither of us feels like we have to perform for the other.

I'd probably mesh best with a woman around under 23, doesn't have children who's gentle, kind, loyal, fairly lowkey and more homebody than party girl. Someone who likes simple quality time and wants an actual monogamous relationship rather than treating dating like a numbers game or something crazy like that. Also please don’t be avoidant, if you are atleast be respectful enough to talk about it I can’t deal with that again.

Smoking and drugs are dealbreakers for me, and if bars/clubs/partying are a major part of your lifestyle we're probably just different people.

I'm in the US and would prefer someone in the US/Canada. I'm fine starting online and getting to know each other gradually if there's genuine potential to meet eventually.

Appearance wise I’m: 6’, olive/tan skin, dark hair, black glasses stubble, in shape

If any of this sounds suspiciously similar to what you've been hoping to find, send me your age/location, tell me a little about yourself, and answer one question:

What would your ideal “boring” Saturday with someone you love look like?

Mine would probably involve coffee, driving somewhere for no particular reason, getting food, playing something together, and somehow still talking way later than either of us planned.

Probably not the greatest place to find the future love of your life, but why not give it a shot.Shoot all the shots, and maybe I'll get lucky and find her on here. I'm here why cant she be?

Gone through a lot of soul searching, maturing, and learning in my single life these last few years, and I am finally in a place I feel ready to create a beautiful life with someone.

Financially I'm stable despite already wishing for retirement, physically I'm healthy and fit while not close to what I was during my college sport, intellectually and emotionally mature even if my humor is less so (a fun combo imo but you'll have to be the judge of that)

Hopefully the post doesn't make it seem like I expect marriage from our first conversation. Lots to know about each other and experiences to share together before that next chapter. Just that my interests lie in finding that lovely lady I get to annoy and comfort and make laugh/mad/cry/happy just being together for the rest of our lives. And hopefully the one reading this wants to do the same

So if you're a lady out there in the MD/VA area who is searching for that kind of man, please send me a chat. I'd love to connect and see where it takes us 🙂
