26 [M4F] Feeling hopeless but I don’t want to give up

Despite what the title states, I’m trying not to feel depressed about my dating situation lol

I’m a 26M 5’8” guy of East Asian descent (half Chinese/half Korean) living in NYC just looking for someone I can cherish life with. Some things about me: I love getting into the arts (museum-goer, dancing for fun, etc…) and sports tho I can’t say I play as much these days cause of work and other commitments. I like working out but had to stop cause I busted my back, but would be down to get back into it. I mostly just watch YT or TikTok or insta these days. I love watching a good movie now and then so recommendations would be awesome. I usually watch action stuff but I’ve loved other kinds of movies like the City of God. Kinda basic I feel when it comes to music, but my go-to’s are pop, hip-hop/rap, rock, or edm.

I currently work full time as an electrical engineering intern (technically is actually an entry level role since I finished school). I’m usually pretty reserved and quiet, but I can be silly and fun too. I try to keep things light and not take life too seriously (I know, I know), but I know when to buckle down and focus. I like going out for nature walks or walks around the city when it’s nice out. I’m not too worried about preferences really as long as we gel and feel some sort of connection just as long as you’re within a good age range (21-35 is good?!).

I’d love to get to know people even if just friends at least, but hopefully I can find something a bit more serious.
