26 [m&4] #london/uk/online, looking for a platonic friendship

Hey! I'm 26 m, based in London, a chef at the moment. Before that I was a personal trainer, so I still keep active with rugby, the gym, and combat sports. Outside of that I'm a proper homebody: into gaming (currently deep in Pokémon Champions), anime, music, reading, and cooking at home.

I'm looking for a genuine female best friend, someone I can talk to regularly, share dumb memes with, grab food with, and just be comfortable around without it being anything more than that. I'm a bit shy at first but easy to talk to once I'm comfortable, and I'd rather build something real over time than force a connection.

Note: im mainly focusing on mu ceceer rn. So I'm not looking to date.
