In His Own Words
About Him
Ill keep this short, only the good bits.
I'm happy, upbeat, quiet(ish), irreverent sense of humour, curious and audacious, semi-artistic, information-sponge. Confident, sensitive, not prideful or ego-propelled. But I do have self-respect. I only compete with me. I relish the outdoors and coastal life. I treat everyone with dignity until they give me reason not to. Can't dance, don’t drink, not "one of the boys". Don’t do casual or short-term. Distain arrogance and hypocrisy. Not-quite-professional-yet but highly enthusiastic Christian.
I'll leave you here with some questions for the sake of conversation later.
So, I'm here looking to find someone to love, to pray with, and grow with. I ask only what I have to offer: Honesty, loyalty and authenticity, calm, effort with intent and consistency, presence, and purpose. No games, no pretending.
I am sooo done battling. I’ve been through a lot, got the scars, made mistakes too, and I learned. Not enough to make me perfect, cos I ain't, but enough to avoid new ones. I recognise and own my faults. I leave the past where it is.
And still I want to build something extraordinary, in time, with someone who gets it. I'm looking for connection, the sanctuary of two people who’ve been through enough to know what really matters. Chemistry is important, but greater than that is resonance, our souls are sort of wired the same.
So lets begin with conversation and allow trust grow in its own time, take the safe route before the scenic one.
About His Ideal Match
Please honour us both by showing up authentically, with clarity of purpose and with honest intent. You are looking for a permanent, monogamous and loving relationship. We are both all-in or nothing. You can be assertive without being arrogant, I will value your candor and forthrightness. I'm not equipped to deal with ambiguity or uncertainty, and if you're simply looking for petty validation please exhaust all the other options available to you. You understand that being the right partner is equal in importance to finding the right partner, you're willing to consistently work at it, and to appreciate my effort. Your looks are obviously relevant -I have my own ideas of beauty. You are joyful, generally positive, and have a light-hearted wholesome vibe. Perpetual pessimism is......Nope. You're spontaneous and adventurous but not reckless, can live in the moment and you're always striving to grow. Laughter is easy, conversation flows and communication is clear. You are intelligent and unashamedly in touch with your emotions and attuned to mine. You brazenly thrive on romance, and are active in all its forms and languages.
You ideally are a practicing Christian, but not holier-than-thou.
Simply be who you really are, and that will be enough, your core stays true. You don’t need a savior, I'm the soft landing and safe parking for your emotions and feelings. You require no direction, you are capable and competent, I support and encourage, and celebrate with you.
For now, I'm here to talk to, be good company, to learn and to recognize you, and perhaps make your days a little better in some way. Later perhaps, with any baggage locked away in the garden shed, we embark on the greatest road-trip through life, loving unreservedly and completely, creating happy memories through fun and adventure, and manifesting our own fulfilment. Are you in?
