No judgment.
Happily married for 10 years, but my wife’s independent streak was one of the main things that attracted me to her. We share plenty, but it’s always been important to us to have our own hobbies, friend groups, and private time. I don’t want to be her whole reason for living and I don’t want her to be mine.
I feel this is so underrated and often looked down on relationships, but it’s so healthy.
I find my relationship to my wife stronger because of it. We are not together because we need to but because we chose to every day.
When I was looking for a partner just someone that would listen to my crazy ramblings about things I enjoy and constant changing of topics (ADHD or whatever). Basically just show an interest in things I find interesting.
I’ve completely stopping looking for a partner in the last few years, fell into a depression hole and don’t see any light at the moment. Just keeping my head above water mostly these days.
That’s one of my favorite traits in my partner. She’s great at keeping the conversation going, which is important, because I’m terrible at it lol
When we get high together, there’s usually about an hour period, that I call her Wikipedia time, where she finds a random topic, and has to talk about it at length
You have to get out of your daily cycle to find someone. Dating apps suck. Meetups are fantastic to meet new people and develop new friend circles. It’s how I met my best friend, and my life evolved from there. Don’t give up. You’ll find someone eventually.

Well, for starters, there are hobby related meetups. I did boardgames and made several friends through that. There are also Singles meetups for certain age ranges. Where they go to go to bars, breweries, or other activities - essentially somewhere where they can meet and talk. My best friend met his current wife at one. Check them out. You’d be surprised what’s available. There are book clubs, sports leagues, etc.
Find something that interests you, and maybe you’ll make a connection with someone.
The only hard requirements I have for a partner are that they are attracted to me and have reasonable hygiene practices. It’s a bonus if they’re a degenerate kinkster or are willing and able to deal with a half-feral, half-crazy, cat lady for any real length of time. But I also am totally fine with that person bouncing because that’s a lot.

I assume you know the difference between a BMW and a stallion?
Wish I had someone who wanted to do foster parenting with me.
It’s not a deal breaker, but I’m a guy who is into female bodybuilders. I lift a lot myself and have always been attracted to muscle. The bigger the muscles the sexier.
I only date women, for context. I’m a sucker for really crisp diction.
