25 [M4F] #Europe/Online - Feeling Lonely And Looking for the missing piece to my puzzle <3

Hello there! Thank you for deciding to read my post and for giving me a chance. I am hoping to make strong connections of all sorts, for one to hopefully blossom into a lifelong partnership. Here is what you should know about me:

• My name is Dan.
• I am 25 years old.
• I'm not religious and agnostic.
• I live alone with my two adorable, beautiful, wonderful cats (I'm 100% sure that they are the most beautiful and handsome cats in existence) in Istanbul/Turkey/Europe (UTC+03:00)
• Since 2023, when I graduated from my pilotage university, I started working my dream job as an airline pilot in A320 family aircraft (I've been a huge avgeek my entire life! Bonus points if you are too, but not a requirement, A350 is my dream cockpit!)
• Since my career allows for many opportunities in that regard as well, I'm hoping and willing to relocate anywhere at all; I do not want to live in one place forever. Of course, this means that I'm open to starting long-distance as well, as my work schedule is completely random as well. (though I will still be mainly available close to European time zones) I can be freely available for all time zones.
• I've been missing my social fix for the majority of my entire life. I've also had social anxiety along with that. Sadly, this makes me not so amazing at social situations. This means I often have a hard time conversing correctly with people and missing obvious social cues if I'm not actively making an effort to fix this (examples would be talking too much about myself and not making a large enough effort to do active listening when I'm excited). At school, I would not fit in with people around me, and my line of work is quite isolated in its nature as well. So throughout my life, I have always enjoyed socializing and forming strong companionships with people online instead. I would obviously like it to be possible for us to meet one day, but it's more than ok if we are just online at first. (And like I said before, my line of work makes travel and moving very convenient, and I almost always make an effort to help remove the mistakes that I could make as long as I am not too excited)
• Appearance-wise: I'm 183 cm (6 feet), 80 kg (176 lbs) with a fit and muscular build. I have fair skin with medium-length, wavy, and messy dark hair, and dark eyes. I'm clean-shaven and don't have tattoos or piercings at the moment. I'm open to sharing photos after we get to know each other a little bit.
• Even though this is primarily a dating post, I believe these connections happen slowly. I expect to form a deep companionship with you through being friends first and letting it evolve into something more with time.
• As for my interests other than aviation, I am a huge nerd. I have always been a very indoorsy person. (but I'm not a shut-in, I have outdoor hobbies also!). Not being popular at school helped me spend most of my free time hanging out by myself and on the internet. I love all kinds of nerdy entertainment; PC gaming (I'd say I'm into all sorts of games and franchises, but mostly RPGs!, I would love to family share my ginormous Steam library with you too :)), I'm very into Virtual Reality -and I spend most of my free time on social VR games- anime, YouTube, books, TV, and movies, manga/manhwa/webtoons, even musicals and theatre. I am also very into tech and tinkering with technology in general, including but not limited to XR, computers, photography, music, audio gear/audio engineering, homelabbing and all sorts of DIY stuff! I've also been into schoolwork, too, as expected of a nerd! I love complicated maths and all kinds of sciences, but most of all, physics. I am into astronomy and engineering of all sorts of flying machines as well.
• Some of my outdoorsy hobbies include traveling (Even if I have short layovers, I travel like a maniac wherever I visit pretty much everywhere on a layover, you will never be able to find me at the hotel, and I will be unable to operate the rudders the day after because I took 50k steps the day before), hiking, horse-riding, photography, and cooking/baking!
• My music taste is all over the place. The genres I enjoy the most are classical, dream pop, indie, and punk-rock
• Personality-wise: I am often described as kind and "wholesome". I'm more introverted and a bit shy at first, but I open up and get talkative and open extremely fast.
• When I am attached to a person, I would be slightly clingy and very devoted. I would prefer to spend a lot of time together, but not to a concerning degree (I will know when and how much I should give you space)
• If you have any further questions or would like to get to know more about me, please feel free to ask anything!

Why should you choose me:

• I'm very honest and patient. I'm going to be very devoted to you! I'm not going to give up easily on someone I love.
• I have two adorable cats that are the most handsome and beautiful ones in existence at the moment, and you get to see them whenever you want.
• I'm a natural giver. I understand that love should be mutual and reciprocal between us, but I love giving love as much, if not more than receiving it.
• I'm gentle, soft-spoken, and kind. I'm not bad/short-tempered, or toxic.
• I'm caring and told to be a "sweet guy".
• People say I have a nice and soothing voice, even though I dislike it. (but I would still love to do karaoke with you ;))
• I care about my health and my body. I go to the gym actively and frequently.
• I know the differences between "you’re" vs "your" / "there" vs "their" vs "they’re", I even separate my sentences with punctuation, new lines, or an emoji while texting.
• I'm pretty good at texting and not dry, since the relationship is going to be 70% talking, especially in the “getting to know you” phase.
• I'm eager to learn about you!
• I communicate well. I know how to articulate and put my feelings into words.
• I have lots of common sense and knowledge! (It's insane that I even have to put this here, but we're on Reddit after all)
• I'm not lazy. I take initiative and have plans for the future and a strong career.
• I can share my comically ginormous Steam library with you!
• I love cooking and baking, and I think I am very good at it! I would love to cook or bake for you!
• I am an airline employee who is single, so I have an empty "travel companion" slot for ZED tickets, which means we can travel anywhere almost for free on standby and slightly more expensive than free guaranteed tickets if you end up being my travel companion!

About you:

• I have no big requirements at all, and I'm not at all picky! I will just have to add here that communication is essential to me, so please be willing to use your big girl words!
• Not an absolute requirement, but being in a similar time zone or being able to match mine will be a plus.
• Having some shared hobbies is my only real requirement for me. The most important thing to me would be travel. I have nothing against you and would love to be your friend, but if you have dietary restrictions/struggle with picky eating / other sensory issues/disabilities affecting your mobility/obesity to the point of being unable to keep up with my travels and going outside, it would not work out as a lifelong partnership. Sharing video games or anything else from my nerdy list is also going to be very important to me.

What kind of relationship do I want:

• We’re best friends who can talk about everything and anything without worrying about getting judged. Whenever something happens, you’re the first person I want to tell.
• We’re always there for each other through the good and the bad times.
• We try our best to make time for each other, but we understand when we need our own time for other people or our careers, too.
• We’re going to be a great team together. We manage our workload together whenever one of us needs help. We’re here to support each other when there’s a problem that we want to share and overcome together. We tell each other and talk about it, trying to find a solution together.
• We are very comfortable with each other; we can laugh and cry in front of each other without worrying if it's a sign of weakness.
• We communicate well, listen to each other, and adjust to each other equally to make each other happy and fulfilled in our relationship!

I'm eager to learn about you! If you have been interested in my post, please send me a chat with your own introduction. I would ask you to please include the word "strawberry" in your message to let me know that you fully read my post.
