Pro:
+ I’m honest, loyal and have a strong sense of justice and fairness
+ I’m actually, truly monogamous
+ I’m reliable and responsible
+ I’m a free spirit, I think for myself and don’t blindly follow the rules and social conventions
+ You can have deep and meaningful discussions and philosophise with me for hours
+ I am protective about the people I care about. I’ll stand up for you and stand and fight with or for you.
+ Passionate for worthwhile causes
+ I’m in a package together with a lot of random facts you never knew you wanted to know and a ton of great music that I will definitely introduce you to when something in a conversation or that just happened reminded me of a song
+ While my mind is prone to the logical and rational and I am a systematic and analytic thinker, I have a thing for epic and romantic aesthetics so that part is not lacking and I’ve got the best of both sides I guess
+ I absolutely don’t care for consumerism, status symbols and hierarchies. I care about who you are as a human being not about what you own!
+ I’m a dog person!
+ I love to be in nature, to see new cities and historic sides and to be active in general
+ I am accepting of people who don’t fit the norm, I usually get along better with people who don’t fit the norm and I will accept you for who you really, authentically are and I want to be accepted as my authentic self as well
+ I want to be your best friend as well as romantic partner and will be there for you and always listen
+ I don’t smoke and don’t drink alcohol
+ I am perfectly childfree and I never ever want to have children

Cons:
- I can be cynical bordering on misanthropic
- I am sarcastic and my humour can be pretty morbid
- I am not that emotionally expressive and can seem aloof or uncaring even though I am not
- I am fairly assertive and opinionated and come across as too harsh and headstrong sometimes without noticing
- I am occasionally involuntarily tactless (it has gotten better throughout the years but still)
- I don’t do small-talk at all
- It’s difficult to gain my trust
- I need lots and lots of personal space and probably also more time for myself than other men
- Sensory hypersensitivity issues that need to be accommodated for and taken into consideration
- Shallow relationships bore me and aren’t worth it to me, a meaningful and deep connection on a personal and intellectual level is required.
- Looks don’t get you anywhere! While I recognise when someone looks aesthetically pleasing this doesn’t get me interested in the person at all. Saying something intelligent, humorous or sharing an interest is what makes me want to interact with someone.
- I don’t like hook-up culture and I will never be open to polygamy or an open-relationship.
- I write very long messages, I talk a lot if the conversation is interesting and I will definitely cut your word without even realising it, which isn’t ideal I know, but it also makes me tolerant for when you cut my word accidentally as well. So I think that’s fair enough x’D
- I strongly dislike cats and kids.

My wife thinks I’m okay overall…..but just okay.

She thinks I’m eminently selfish—but she knows I helped her get to where she is now.

Pros:

I'll play video games with you, or DM for your D&D group.

If you like S&M, I'd be happy to tie you up and flog you.

I don't play silly mind games, I say what I mean and communicate my feelings honestly.

Cons:

I don't like sex, and no, you won't be able to convince me.

I'm forgetful and disorganized, and no matter how hard I try not to, I guarantee at some point I will stand you up. I'm sorry about that.

I don't have a driver's license, live in a small town, and don't do long-distance relationships. If we're not seeing each other IRL on a regular basis, then I'll lose interest eventually.
