TL;DR - Music loving geek with a passionate streak.
ABOUT ME:
I’m Rayne, a straightforward, open-minded, and confident guy, though my autism sometimes makes me come off strong, but I’m just passionate about things I care about. I’m also geeky, creative, and a bit goofy, with a sarcastic sense of humour. At heart, I’m quite romantic, but I also love a bit of adventure and spontaneity.
Music is a huge part of my life, I’m a total metalhead, and I love playing guitar. Whether it’s headbanging at a concert or jamming at home, music keeps me going. I also enjoy deep conversations, playful banter, and geeking out over sci-fi, fantasy, and gaming.
I walk with a cane these days (cars and I have a bit of a complicated history). It’s definitely slowed me down and some things are more challenging now. Though, I still enjoy going out, having fun, and making the most of life, (though I'm more of an indoorsy sort) but it’s given me a solid excuse to take things at my own pace. Plus, I like to think the cane gives me a touch of a Victorian gent flair, so I’ll take it.
I fluctuate between ENTP and INTP as I’m an ambivert, which means I love being social, but I also value my downtime. Pseudo-psychology personality labels aside, I just enjoy connecting with interesting people.

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR
I value connection in whatever form it naturally takes. Whether it’s friendship, a fun fling, something that's long-term, or something eternal, I believe in seeing where things naturally go and what feels right. I also appreciate exploring different aspects of relationships, including some more adventurous sides of intimacy, but it’s just one layer of who I am. At the core, I value real bonds, chemistry, good conversation, and having fun together.
I share things like my autism, disability, geekiness and intimacy upfront because I know they’re not for everyone, and that’s okay! I’d rather be open about who I am and connect with someone who gets me. If that sounds like you, we’ll probably get along great.
