World building and other grievances

I have been trying to find someone to really build a world with and I'm kinda sad that it's not really working. I just came back in the scene after a long break, (About 4 years) it used to be a huge part of my life and it was a source of inspiration and helpful for me to get some access feelings out in a constructive way through story and world building, but my last partner made it clear that trusting them was no longer going to work so i cut them off.

I have some limits I don't like to break like: they have to be over 25, Limitations on both sides need to be adhered to, and only changed/bent/onetime accepted if we have a discussion about it but that's not a guarantee that the limit will be changed. or that I want my roleplay partner to actually contribute to world building and not force me to do all the work, (I like things to be collaborative).

But lately even when I respond to ads (I'm mostly on tumblr) people refuse to commit or never respond back. or they are like 19!!! or most annoyingly want me to do the work for world building, I don't mind collaborating, but I have an issue with being the guy who does all the heavy lifting, you're not just here to react to something /I/ made I want you to have ideas too!

I know that I'm in the majority so these people have a wide pool to pick and choose from. but it still kinda sucks that I can't seem to find someone long term that I really can commit to.
