Hey there! Welcome to my post! Wall of text incoming, sorry in advance!
I've posted here before and had a few fun and interesting chats, even a few IRL dates, but I'm still looking for a real lasting connection. Anything real or worthwhile is hard to find in the sea of "fakeness" these days. That goes for real life and on dating apps. There's a lot of people who like to ghost and not say anything. It's unfortunate that a lot of people are so fake but I'm holding out hope that I can meet the right person either IRL or online eventually.
Let's actually normalize being genuine and nice to each other? *mind blown

About me:
I'm a 31 year old average looking white dude with an average physique from North Carolina. I'm planning on moving during 2026/2027 somewhere else. College educated with a bachelors degree debt free, I've been running my own successful business for over 2 years from my home workshop that is rapidly scaling. No debt or kids & financially responsible. Not an alcoholic/no criminal history. Pretty sane actually? Lol.
I love camping/hiking and traveling. I think I've been to over 40 states! I love listening to music & playing PC games. Maybe we could play stuff together? I also enjoy reading and listening to audiobooks/podcasts. I would like to get a motorcycle at some point. I'm pretty easygoing generally. I'm also open to trying any new hobbies with my partner that they'd like to introduce me to. I enjoy going to food festivals and trying new types of food too. I love making coffee runs and just driving around honestly. Don't expect me to be the most exciting guy on the planet but I do make a deliberate effort to be genuine/be myself & be a better person.

What I'm looking for:
I am looking to connect with someone worthwhile and sane between the ages of 21-36 with no kids. Preferably inside the USA! I like text chatting but calling is ideal and better in my opinion. Obviously I don't expect you to call me right away, that would be weird. But assuming we keep chatting, it's a much better way of actually getting to know someone long-term.
I try to understand the other person I'm with to the best of my ability and be thoughtful and caring. I just want to find something peaceful with someone one day. I love hugs.
I want to be around someone who gives me peace and to be able to sit around a campfire with you sipping coffee and making smores or having a picnic having a deep hearty laugh. Maybe play video games together or go on a walk too. I'd love to feel completely comfortable around you. I would like to get to know eachother on a deeper level than ever before, if it feels right. I'd like to find someone who is okay with me showing an emotional side even though I am a guy. Someone I could take on cute dates and treat well. At this phase I am dating with the intention of finding someone worthwhile to keep around forever, where we can cheer each other on with our goals in life whatever they may be. Honestly just looking for my best friend that I haven't met yet. Someone who is curious and at least somewhat outgoing would be nice. I have a lot of moments where I like to veg out too and relax so that's fine too.
It doesn't really matter how far away you are in terms of distance, but like I said, if we somehow hit it off, then I'd rather you be in the United States! The closer the better (obviously) but travel expense is not really an issue.
Anyway, that should give you a good taste of what you're in for if you decide to reach out. If you like the sounds of any of this, shoot me a message and we'll chat!

Dealbreakers:
- Kids (If you want them, it's fine, but if you already have them, then I'd rather not, sorry!)
- Non-monogamy (no thanks!)
- I would strongly prefer dating someone within my own country but if you're amazing, I can make an exception.
