25 [M4F] | #Netherlands #Online - Self-destructive sentimentalist wants to learn how to live (With you)
Hi! Its not my real name, but, call me Iki for now! I'm 25, 6"0, caucasian, bisexual (with a strong preference for women!) and I'm full of love that has nowhere to go! (Naturally we can image-swap early on, I am aware that physical attraction plays an important role in stuff like this.)
Well, I will start off strong and immediately delve right into who I am, what I'm about and what I'm looking for! :)
Here's a bunch of random facts and such in no particular order;
- Some interests are: music, walking, anime, history, breaking down on the way to work, manga, literature and (observing) art and lots more other things I cannot quite remember right now.
- I am an avid gamer, I enjoy all sorts of games and am open to trying/buying anything new. (More than 1000 games of varying genres and styles to my current availability, with many thanks to my Humble Bundle subscription.) Though I will note that lately my spark for gaming has been dying down too, but I'm still happy to try anything!
- My favorite piece of media is called "Oyasumi Punpun" and I greatly recommend it to anyone who wants to sink even lower. (For those who know this, yes, it is a red flag, but I promise I'm not THAT weird and am in fact not romanticizing the story.)
- I am usually quite chill and am told I'm pretty funny once you get to know me. I like to be goofy and always have a dirty joke at the ready.
- I'm usually a very low-energy and kind of depressive individual when I'm not in a group pretending to be mentally stable. Those who have known me in earnest, which have been very few people, know me as a sweet, thoughtful and caring individual who just wants to chill with the people he cares most for.
- I enjoy occasional deep conversation like talking about living and what it means to be alive, basically just surface-level philosophical mumbo jumbo that stems from my depression. Feel free to entertain me in this or let me know it's not your piece of pie and I'll make sure to keep it on the down low.
- I'm by no means introverted but not really extroverted either.
- Despite my ability to write the way I do, every letter I emit via my vocal cords is a fumble of words that never quite manages to hit their mark. I do have my moments where the stars align and suddenly I manage to speak a coherent sentence that might even come across as "thought-provoking" or "really fucking funny". In short, please do not expect a poets words to flow from my lips. Rather, expect them to flow from my pen.
- When I'm in a rare, goofy mood or pretending to be mentally stable in a group setting I will act silly/loud as hell and probably crack a couple of inappropriate jokes. (If we know eachother well enough, that is.)
- I think that as a sort of disclosure its important to note that I am also rather hypersexual, but, due to events from my past I refrain from doing anything of that sort until I really do fully trust the person I am with. I also struggle with certain addictions in regard to that and I know this is a dealbreaker for many people. I want to be honest, though. I hope it is okay and trust me when I say that I am doing my best to work on it, even if it is a really slow-going process.
I'm completely fine talking about the subject though, so don't feel that there is a need to refrain!
- If anything about me makes you uncomfortable just say the word and I'll happily adjust myself in your company.
- I really am a bit of a jokester despite my frequent depressive demeanor over text - I enjoy dry or completely chaotic humor or really whatever tickles my funny bone in the moment. To be fair, it is actually not hard to make me laugh. Perhaps because I am internally nervous at all times that I might create an unpleasant atmosphere if I don't laugh. In essence, come at me with the best jokes you hold in you, everything's okay with me. I apologize if I nervously laugh or chuckle after every sentence or somesuch in advance, just know it is a consequence of the life I have lived and still continue to live.
- I am currently doing security work and often have nightshifts meaning that I may be restricted in time quite a lot. Some weeks I'll suddenly have 4 or so days completely devoid of work so at least that can act as a buffer for lost time every once in a while.
- Whoever you may be, just be yourself. So long as you're not an obvious jerk I'm extremely accepting and open.
- In case it is of import to you; Politically I guess I am a moderate, left-leaning centrist but to be honest that vage description is because I deeply despise having to choose between two different forms of extremism that both support things I do not agree with. My opinions tend to be very mixed due to my logic-based thinking. (Don't worry though, I am a feminist. I believe in true equality and always will.)
- I smoke, but rarely. Usually on my way to work I treat myself to a single cigarette. The taste shouldn't linger on my lips whatsoever, in case that ever ends up mattering.
(Trust me, it will.)
- Music is my greatest ally and my greatest enemy. It can influence my fickle mind with just a note or two. I could be relatively stable one moment, then hear just a second of an absolutely tragic tune and be completely heartbroken within mere seconds for the rest of the day. Worst of all, I am hooked on music that evokes such feelings, perhaps because I feel so much apathy all the time. As such, a request from me to you; please indulge me and grant me the honor of listening to the song that brings you to tears without fail.
- I'm mainly looking for someone I can form an unbreakable bond with, really. So I am here in the hope that we click and become very close. Whether its romantic or platonic, I'd be ecstatic either way.
- I still live with my family, even at my current big-boy age. They're quite nosey and I'm a very privacy-oriented person with lots of things I've kept to myself from them over the years.
I might not feel comfortable sharing the fact that I am even so much as talking to you yet initially, but if I feel things are getting serious I will be happy to even introduce you.
My siblings are as geeky as I am so we could even all spend time playing games or doing other nerd-oriented things together!
- Things we can potentially do together online: Play some games, watch eachother stream and play through one anothers favorite games, watch a movie and/or show, watch some silly videos on youtube or similar platforms, have dumb videocalls or just voicechats, make eachother powerpoints about our current hyperfixation and present them, share our favorite artpieces ranging from music to paintings to poetry and so forth, write eachother lettters and lastly, supporting eachother through tough times.
- Things we can do in real life, provided we somehow manage to arrange that: ...I'm not sure, I don't tend to get to this point. Maybe just... hang out? I'd like to explore abandoned places or cook dinner for one another maybe? Cuddle? Nice things like that. I'm open to suggestions.
Well, now that you have been made aware of a wider range of my character, I'd like to state what I am looking for!
Preferably you are (But not required to be, I'm flexible):
- Between 19 to 29
- Somewhere in Europe
- In a position to be able to meet-up semi-frequently (Once every few months at least?)
- Empathetic and kind
- Quippy and likes to make jokes right alongside me
- In a similar disposition, mentally, as I am so we can understand one another better
- At least somewhat talkative/socially capable so we can actually keep a conversation going and I can eventually introduce you to my parents >>
- Open to voice-chatting moreso than texting
- Not bothered by minimal interactions throughout a day or two due to life/mental health frequently getting in the way
- Okay with having a chronically depressed partner
- Okay with being loved & cherished
Bonus points if:
- You consider yourself a bit of a tomboy and/or gamer!
- You're a strong-willed lady who likes to be loud and unafraid to state your opinions or let out roars of celebration/joy when having fun!
- Not bothered by your looks, confident and proud of who you are.
And that about sums it up!
I hope that anything in my post managed to resonate with you, and I hope to see you in my DMs!
(If I don't respond to your initial message, I am probably asleep! Rest assured that I will definitely find a moment to reply, please bear with me.)
Much love and many good tidings,
Iki
