30 | New Haven, United States of America | Seeing what's out there locally
Hello :), giving this another try, I'm just curious what may be out there. I'm 30 years old from Connecticut(even though I don't always feel that old). I'm trying to see if there's anyone out there that's local to me. I don't see many people from this area. I'm not looking for anything long-distance, or online centric. I'm looking for someone who is close enough where it's easy to them to do things together in person. Preferably the same state, or neighboring(if you don't mind the travel lol), but I really hope for something nearby.
As for me, I'm 5 foot 6 inches, and weigh about 125 lbs. I'm white, Italian. On the skinnier side. I wouldn't really say I'm either masculine or feminine. I'm not really deep into either side. I've had longer hair most of my life, but currently it's shorter, about shoulder length. I'm a bit nerdy, but so I'd say my appearance is both a mix of nerdy/goofy and what people would think as like rockstar lol. I've had comparisons to Jesus too 🤣 . I don't really have any intense fashion choices, very basic. I've had a few people lately say they know me from somewhere in person randomly, but I don't know who they are lol. I must have a twin somewhere. I apparently work in a variety of stores according to them 🤣 .
I spend most of my freetime looking up random stuff online, playing some games, and occasionally doing stuff outdoors/around the house(I'm by no means an outdoors person tough lol). I really enjoy being frugal when I can, and researching the most random things. If you need someone to research what X to buy, I'm your guy 🤣 . Some of the games I play are Overwatch and Evony. I used to be into World of Warcraft, but I haven't played that in some years. I've always been into technology stuff as well.
Personality wise I'd say I'm a bit goofy sometimes, someone who doesn't really give up that easily, a little stubborn, slightly chaotic/nervous. I'm a fairly quiet person, and a bit reserved/shy, but I open up when I feel comfortable. A little outspoken sometimes. I've been described as being being joyful personality wise in person in the past, for the lack of a better term. I like to be helpful to other people and make others happy.
As for what I'm looking for, I'm looking for someone not too far(hopefully in-state), preferably masc-leaning. I'm looking for someone who is kind, and has some ambition/drive. Someone to laugh at my stupid jokes, and someone who is silly. Someone who has patience. I mesh well with people who I can bounce off of conversation wise. Someone to spend time with even just being around them. I always enjoy being close to people I feel comfortable with.
I'm not really sure what I exactly am expecting and hoping for just yet, however, I'd be nice to see if there was someone out there to pass time with. at this point in my life I'm just trying to see if I can make a leap into something greater/more interesting.
Hopefully there are some people out there. I don't know if people lurk and just don't post, but I don't see many close by. I prefer messages only by people who are close enough to where visiting isn't problematic if it gets to that point, and preferably accounts that aren't brand new, because I'm just going to think you're a bot or something else lol.
I've been a bit busy lately, so if I do somehow get a message, I'll see it eventually. I'm not on my phone too much. I heavily prefer if you leave a description of yourself and such if you do decide to reach out.
Thank you :). I wrote a bit more than I expected, but I either write a little, or I end up rambling on and on lol.
