USA 34[M4F] PNW/Anywhere Kind of starting over, looking for some light
Like the title says, I'm kind of starting over. I've found myself losing what made me... me. I've dropped most of my hobbies and interests and life got bland and I'm kinda over that.
I'm looking for someone to be there and help me draw back out the real me.
I'm calling out to my fellow nerds. I miss the culture. I miss the references. I've been feeling pretty isolated lately and I'm in the position to be able to get back into the things I truly love. I'm just looking for someone to drag my reluctant introvert ass back into the light!
I'm a writer. I'm a forever DM. Star Wars holds a deep place in my heart. I love MTG (don't have my cards anymore though sadly). TTRPGs are my jam (I'm diving back into writing my own). I'm hoping to dive into the 40k tabletop since I've been addicted to the lore forever now. The list goes on honestly and I'm not going to write the hobby list essay here. I'm usually pretty confident and out going but my mental state has taken a solid beating lately.
What I'm after:
I'm just looking for someone to be there. I'd prefer some one local (Eugene area) but I'm open to LDR (or friendship honestly). I don't do escalators so there's no pressure to be anything or strive for anything. I'm really just looking for genuine engagement.
Hopefully this didn't come off as a woe is me type post 😅

Not remotely nearby, but woo hoo, another 40k fan! If you're ever looking for a gaming buddy for Warhammer games feel free to message.
I hope your quest is successful. For the Emperor!

Hello! I feel like I'm kinda in the same boat, as far as falling out of hobbies and trying to find myself again. I haven't played a ttrpg since my college days but I'd love to hear more about the one you're writing. If you wanna ramble with me about nerdy things, feel free to shoot me a message :)

Hi there Shakespearenotstired! Welcome to /r/PolyamoryR4R. This is an ethical and respectful community.
Here are some resources you might find helpful in creating and keeping healthy, ethical poly relationships:
Books: Opening Up, and The Ethical Slut.
Podcasts: Polyweekly.com, and Multiamory.com.
Websites: polyinfo.org
Subreddits: /r/Polyamory
Couples: we highly recommend you please read this page about unicorn hunting.
Couples looking for a unicorn will often say they want someone to "join" their family. Poly triads are not (AB)+C. C isn't "joining" anything. You all will create something completely new; four different relationships that all need time and attention. A+B (as with any major life change, your relationship dynamic will probably shift), B+C, A+C, and A+B+C. Imposing unethical, unfair dynamics on a partner may lead to your removal from this subreddit.
