–       Somebody who’ll stick by my side, whether it be a best friend or a lover, who also lives in the UK. I’m not into LDRs after failed experiences.

–       Somebody aged 18 to 28.

–       Somebody with similar interests and values/morals. Veganism is a big part of my life so I’m looking for other vegans to connect with as it can be very isolating.

–       Somebody who is compassionate, romantic and adventurous with a good sense of humour (I don’t mesh well with overly serious people). Open-mindedness is also important to me as I like to discuss all sorts of crazy things!

Bonus: I’ve been dabbling in the idea of living off-grid or somewhere very isolated, or simply just travelling to these sort of areas. I have always found the modern world very stressful and I’d love to have somebody to disconnect into nature with.

Since honesty is important, I’d like to start off with that I have many mental health problems. More specifically, Aspergers/autism, severe depression and anxiety. I do believe my issues have been made worse by long term loneliness, however. Things become seemingly very empty when you have nobody to share them with. I figured I’d get this out of the way considering it is a dealbreaker for some.

Now that’s outta the way: I’m a panromantic (men, women and non binaries welcome!) asexual. I am also researching the fact I could also be demiromantic. My personality type is INFP-T (which explains a lot…) I’m not very good at describing myself, but I’d say I’m a passionate dreamer stuck in my own world(s) who laughs at odd things. The unanswered questions of the universe are often plaguing me and I’m always seeking nostalgia. I’m also rather shy – more so in person – but it makes a difference if the person and I just vibe well. Good energies, same values and similar interests make all the difference. I’m also a terrible hopeless romantic and I dream to seek out the elusive ‘soulmate’.

I’ve been vegan for four years and I’ll never look back. I’m certainly not the healthiest or ‘perfect’ vegan (which is not what veganism is about anyway) but I love animals dearly and have grown up around many in my 21 years. The lifestyle has definitely contributed to my growing spirituality and sense of self/surroundings/earth. I recycle and make sure to purchase sustainable products, whether it be reusable, biodegradable, cruelty free, etc. I also like getting some secondhand bargains – a lot of my wardrobe is used! I also practice minimalism.

Now, onto my two biggest interests. Firstly: manga. You’ll often find me reading some obscure one. I’ve read over 300 series and counting. The genres I mostly read are shounen-ai/BL, romance, horror and psychological. Two of my favourites are ’No.6’ and ’Girls Last Tour’. I do watch anime occasionally, but I’ve been in a burnout for some time now. Secondly, if I’m not reading, then I’m usually gaming. It’s been a big part of my life since I was young. I’m a very big fan of the PlayStation exclusives, the story driven games – I have a tattoo dedicated to ’The Last of Us’.

Some other side hobbies/interests: I like to explore new music. I’m always on the hunt for the next track I’ll play a dozen times only to wear it out. I like a selection of genres: wave, metalcore, synthwave, (some) pop, indie, ambient… etc. Another thing is since I got a new camera recently, I’ve gotten back into photography since I have an artistic eye. I’m snapping photos of my pets or simply some beautiful flowers! And lastly, there’s writing. I have an ongoing novel that I daydream about way more than actually working on it. I’ve been attempting to write one for six years, and through many scrapped projects (that I hope to return to), I’ve finally settled on a plot.

If you read all of this, then cheers! I’m not likely to message first (thanks anxiety) so if you want to chat, here are my deets:

I will not respond to messages or accept any friend requests if you have no semi-detailed written description of yourself, are out of my age range or if I feel like we haven’t got much in common. This might sound harsh but please don’t take it personally!
