Hello, I'm not aussie just living here. I'm in a transition period of my life, its exciting and I hope to share it with someone.

I'm short, just 5'11 and I wish I could break into the 6 region. Its like getting 2nd place at a competition. There but not quite there, could have made it a clean EVEN number, pun intended. Thankfully for shoes amirite. I just wanna know when I shrink as an old asian dude, I'd still be able to nonchalantly reach the top shelf 🤣

My hobbies are nerdy, I like to read self-growth books and manhwa/mangas. I occasionally watch anime or whatever shows depending on what I subscribe to that month. With both I tend to be drawn into mystery, thriller, comedy and.. romance hahah Somehow romance novels has a good timey wimey explanation about the protagonist and I like these creative ideas. I also play games but prefer having a player 2. Saw someone said this and I thought it was very smart- "I'll be player 2 and you'd be player 1 because you'd always be my number 1" \\\*cries in cringe\\\* but dayum! I like pokemon too, not a big major fan in that but I just like cutesey stuff. Thankfully I don't sink money into tcgs.

I do however sink money into food. I wouldn't call myself a food connoisseur or a chef but its a mini sense of victory when I cooked something delicious!

I think deeply about things and I believe its one of my biggest strengths just not when things become too political. I'm not a religious person but I believe in spiritual things. I think religions are derivations of the unknown that we as humans cannot fully grasp. So we create religions based on our own interpretation and understanding of it. And I'm happy for religions being different because it means that everyone has a system that they can follow or don't to make themselves feel at ease and part of a community.

Here are things I hope you are:

I hope you don't take life too seriously and by that I mean you aren't too depressed and are capable of a healthy mindset. I've seen some post on here and well, I can only wish the best for them.

I have no issues if you are religious, I have seen a friend broke up a 9 year relationship over it. Its sad but its life I guess.

I believe every individual is valuable in that even if we had a spark, dated, never worked out or just want to remain friends, it is just a chapter in our life that we can learn from. I'm grateful to the experiences.

If you wanna be friends, I'd be happy to! Just let it be clear in your message.

If you send a photo, I'll send one back. Just be warned, aunties used to smile at me a lot, maybe they think I'm cute?

Please be between 24-35. If you're not but my post resonates with you, feel free to reach out still! Age isn't as important as a connection to me, just don't be weird.

If you reach out, tell me what resonated with you in my post, something about yourself, maybe a genre you like, a song you listen to, a philosophical question like the meaning of life, idk make it a fun topic, I'll resonate the same energy back!

I wonder if yall can tell I'm INFP from my post lol

29M and its been a couple years since the incident. Thought I've been doing better but a small trigger brought every confidence down and the self protection walls back up. I hate being seen. I'm scared of being vulnerable to strangers on dating apps (I'm trying again) and hate how it feels so performative.

My little world and bubble has always been great. Just sitting in the train listening to a track and I suddenly thought up an entire storyboard for a song and wrote every scene, every background and every movement and action down. I'm gonna use this chance to pick it up as a side project to get into animation.

Exhausting that despite this, I still feel lonely and need attention and validation of a significant other like a bloody black cat persona and the need to be a golden retriever to them too. Dumbass emotions appearing out of nowhere and often. Worst is when you see a glimpse that they're doing well with who they cheated with.. that was the trigger. Yikes. Toughest to go out there and meet people while carrying so much emotions about the world and experiences and I'm scared to be judged. Getting cheated on is so unnecessary add on to these emotions. Sigh. Thanks for reading my vent. Life will be daijoubu..

It's been maybe a year or two now since I was cheated on and while it was a short relationship, it was my first and it came unexpectedly. Sometimes I read about other's situation and think that at least my situation isn't as bad compared to others so I really should get over it but just can't.

In the past, I couldn't really stand the sight or presence of other happy couples even if they're just flirting. It bothered me for a long while and I'm not proud but I kept away from couple friends which was a majority of them. Thankfully it has gotten better and I've reconnected with some but when I think about the possibility of a partner again, I just can't help the emotions and thoughts that the next one might do the same and I'd just be hurt. A relationship just doesn't feel meaningful anymore. And I know every person is different but that still keeps me from being able to trust or open up again.

Just want to know how anyone else overcame this, if there's a secret to it or if its just as others said "with time". It sucks and when I think about it I just wish infidelity as a concept doesn't exist. hah..
