39 [M4F] #TX #Texas #Austin - Married - No Kids - Genuinely searching for the right match and cultivating patience for an adventure that has felt new to me along the whole path so far.

I'm a long-time married 39-year old dude in a DB situation that refuses to grow up beyond making good money, learning fun things, staying out of avoidable trouble, and taking care of loved ones.

I focus a lot of my time on improving little and big things in life like home-improvements and tech automation. I have a really fun tech-related job for a huge company and I keep things light-hearted all the time.

A lot of the "nerds" I work with have kind of given up on outward appearance. I put myself in the nerd category often, but I floss in the mirror every morning and I would like to find someone that has their own idea of sexiness in themselves.

I like , conspiracy TV, dumb dating shows, and being an awkwardly honest shredded up geek.
I work out hard and I diet hard.
I don't really party hard that much anymore, but I do like margaritas and dressed up bourbon if the situation calls for it.
I used to love watching and playing team sports, but I don't even have favorite teams any more. Boxing and MMA are my favorite things to watch or schedule an event around. (Ex. BBQ by the pool!)

My recent failure hit-list includes classics like

Not being a great match activity and interest wise
- This is actually perfectly how this process should work

Possible fun connection but not physical matches
- This process simply working the way it should
- I am daring with early exchange now to avoid the later complications
- I'm more than fit, good-looking, light complected, and a little taller than average but the final verdict is up to the tastes/desires of the beholder (that is me kicking it in the profile pic)

I have been ghosted at pic exchange

I have been ghosted while things were seemingly awesome after establishing physical attraction (These are the confusing ones.)

I got anxious for responses and overwhelmingly unloaded messages until an exciting new person was scared away

I have met sex-workers, but I am definitely not interested in dead make-out sessions or transactional action here

I have met couples identifying as acronyms that were unknown without research and googled terms like "hotwife"
- Respectfully, this is not what I'm after, but good luck out there fun ones, I bet you're doing better than me

I have tried to make something out of nothing with someone cause we liked each other's photos and that didn't work either

I'm still adding to this post so come save me before it's actually complete, please. 🙏
