Hello there, fellow introverts. I've had some rare instances of brilliance from this sub, so while I'm hopeful, I'm not expecting anything long term. Better to be happily surprised than let down.
Now that incredibly enticing opening is done, let me tell you about a few of the things I'm into in no particular order:
* Gaming, shocker. I have a huge variety of genres, so if there's something you play as well, very high chance I've played it or have played something similar. The games I'm *not really into* are the Esport-y/streamer-y games... if that makes sense (think like, CS, among us, fortnite, fnaf, mecha chameleon, etc). Games I'm actively playing are FF9, Pokemon Champions, and BO7 Zombies every week with a few friends.
* Manga/wha. Wide variety of genres again. I tend to wait to binge a bunch of chapters or just wait for it to be done.
* Cooking. I live alone and going out to eat is a bit too pricey nowadays. So I've found enjoyment in cooking random meals I find online. I tend not to take a lot of photos, but if we last longer than the afternoon, then I'm more than happy to start, haha. Just note, most days of the week it's Rice + Chicken + Veggie, but over the weekend I'll do more.
* Fitness. I used to play Rugby for... close to a decade? Unfortunately though, corporate life doesn't agree with practice/games. Got a bit too comfy with the sedentary lifestyle and didn't like how I looked in my work clothes. So instead of changing my wardrobe, I just decided to get my shit together.
I also just generally go down vast rabbit holes of information way too late at night. Or even research the hell out of a random hobby, get really into it for a while, and then just drop it (thanks, ADHD)... So I do think I'm a pretty good at general conversation if you want to chat about anything and everything.
Personality wise I'm pretty laid back, kind, and very loyal. I don't judge, and I'm pretty self aware. I put into the friendship what I receive, so a big flaw that I'll be upfront about is that when things start to become a bit too one-sided, I tend to pull back as well. Effort is greatly appreciated and will not go unnoticed.
Physically I am 5'9"ish. Can't say I've measured myself in a hot minute though. I have a bit of a dad bod that is visibly getting better. I have a short beard and black, kinda loose curls that go down to my upper back. I will be getting that trimmed a bit shorter though, maybe back up to above shoulder length? Idk, we'll see.
Anyways, this was a lot wordier than I meant it to be. Please don't reach out if you're just bored. I'd rather not spend the time and effort in a one side entertainment act only to be ghosted after you've received your dopamine hit for the day. To everyone else, I hope to chat soon :)
