So this is a dating app profile, and thus a rather skewed format for me to describe myself, but here goes!
I’m a Los Angeles gypsy transplanted into the Pacific Northwest, and still pretty new to the area. I worked as a promoter in the rave and club industry in LA before getting my degree in audio engineering, then stayed in school for regular engineering, and moving with my son to Seattle has taken me in other directions now.
I’m into just about anything cuz I’m pretty open-minded, but some of my most important interests are reading, learning, loving my planet and seeing it all (and trying it’s food!), music and the power it has to bring people together, magic and the power it has to change our lives, viewing my world and myself with humor, writing and communicating and ideas and thinking about them (I’m a Gemini, of course!), festival culture, board games of all kinds, Tarot, astrology, meditation, tantra, sacred sexuality, ritual magic, S&M, spiders, old arcade games, space, science and math, museums, hiking, climbing, going into spooky houses, wine, sustainability, sleep, growing food……I’m pretty eclectic. Chances are, if you’re into something, I can enjoy it. If I haven't heard of it yet, I'm eager to learn about it. Unless its something moronic like pop culture. My Gypsy heritage runs deep within me and is an essential part of my self-definition; if you can view that without stereotyping me, we can probably get along. I'm also as Gemini as it gets and proud of it.
I’ve been through a lot of phases and discarded a lot of labels in my life, but since they all had an influence on me, I can use them to explain a bit of the weird jumble I am. Street punk, goth, tantric, raver, engineering student, hippie, traveler, gamer, promoter, writer, magician, father, freak…..
I have a young son and its just us two together so that’s very important to me (Don’t worry, though, he’s really cool, you’ll like him if I decide to introduce you, and no, he doesn’t have to come with us when we go out). He’s as open-minded as I am, if not more. Yes, I can get babysitters. I’m comfortable with children but some other parents can be uncomfortable with ME because I am as honest with children as I can be and many adults waste a lot of energy lying to their kids. That doesn't mean I don't know how to phrase things appropriately around kids, but it does mean, in general, I don't lie to mine and I won't lie to yours, either. There's a difference between being age-appropriate and flat-out lying. Do not ask me to lie to your children. Ask yourself why you feel compelled to keep information from them.
I’m non-political and non-religious, although I vote, I’m politically active and I’m very spiritual. I tend towards more of a pagan/tantric/thelemic worldview but refuse to apply a label as extensive and restrictive as religious ones get to myself. I can get along with just about anybody, but I cannot abide hatred. I believe in love in all its forms and do not think it should ever be repressed. It’s pretty difficult to offend me and I can make jokes about anybody or anything so people who are easily offended probably will be by me. I don’t care about age differences or social barriers or any of that, I take people as they are. There's lots I could learn from you, too.
This IS a dating profile, so I should probably include something related to dating. By default anybody here is looking more for a casual relationship than anything serious, and I’m no exception. Anything serious worth having would be a natural outgrowth of a good beginning and a lot of time, not something you can just start with! The only thing I really need to see in a relationship from the beginning is mutual honesty and respect. Honesty and respect are the only things I will provide at the outset myself. That said, I have a unique ‘skill set’ and a very adventurous attitude to bring to any relationship in the physical, intellectual, and emotional realms. I’m deeply romantic and unafraid to show it, extremely sexual and unashamed of it (and very, very into pleasing my partners as an integral part of my identity), and very conscious that union with others is one way we can get closer to the divine One underlying all life, whether its with a brief flash of two lives connecting or a long and deep journey together. I've been through quite a bit in the relationship department and been treated pretty poorly, and I'll be honest that I'm careful with my heart now and not looking for anything serious or anybody getting hurt. We should probably get coffee or go to a museum or an arcade or an S&M club before going much more into the relationship part….What do you like to do? I'm down!
