I'm looking really for a partner and companionship.

I don't have specifics about wanting to get married or have kids.

I'd like to have a family presence in my life, but that to me doesn't need to be like the classic nuclear family.

So yeah, I'm really more looking for someone who wants to be a partner and build something together.

But what that looks like is not necessarily like predetermined for me.

That's how I've always been.

I've never been really certain about kids, and I've been an entrepreneur and been kind of not necessarily interested in following standard protocol.

who's who's single who's available it's a lot easier than it used to be you know 25 years ago you know yeah i guess it's also for me i'm just wondering for your perspective on like how long is too long to be in a multiple dating situation or how do you navigate like do you are you sleeping with any of them no so i have it's only been like six or eight weeks or something and i haven't slept with either of them

Yeah, I think both.

both of them.

And I, I tried to be honest and upfront early on and say like, I'm trying to take things very slowly.

I'm not trying to rush into anything just so that I can better like understand what I'm looking for.

We can really get to know each other before we kind of go down a more traditional path, but that is my ultimate goal to find a partner.

No.

I mean, I think I was with someone for 10 years through all my 20s and early 30s.

And I think we just picked each other when we were like 21 and realized in our early 30s, oh, we were wrong.

So that was just compatibility of like what we wanted out of life was not aligned.

But since that happened,

The couple of guys that I have had shorter term, a couple of year long relationships with, I think it's been this challenge of finding somebody who is independent enough to have their own life, but who still wants and craves partnership.

So I think I've really fallen for people who are charismatic and independent and have interesting things going on in their life.
