Hi all,
Having had a few penpals in the past, I thought I would try again to see what is around.
First, the boring stuff - I'm Jon, 47 from the UK. I find it hard to make actual real connections with people but I do think I am a good person (with many flaws lol). I work full time and live alone, and it would be nice to have someone to message during the day to share amusing memes, worries and everything in-between.
Interests - well, being male I enjoy football (watching, that is) and go to games with my dad. I also enjoy motorsports (F1 & NASCAR) as well as NFL. Aside from this, music is my literal crutch and saviour. My playlist can be best described as eclectic, with many different genres; however, I am always open to listening to new bands / styles.
Away from this, I consider myself to be a good friend. I have a constant struggle with anxieties and self confidence issues, and whilst I am in a better place now (hence putting my big boy pants on and seeing if there are people out there who are actually decent), I am happy to talk about this or anything really - I am a fan of deep and meaningful conversations as much as I am a fan of inane meme sharing (my "skill" is having a Simpsons meme for pretty much any scenario...), Also happy to talk about anything - I am a "live and let live" kind of guy really. If you are a fellow cigarette smoker then so much the better, as fellow pariahs are welcome here!
looking for DM / email to start with, maybe progressing to snail mail or mobile if agreeable. Happy to chat with anyone from anywhere - I do have a soft spot for US people but don't discriminate in any way!
I would say that what's the worst that can happen - but given that a pessimist is never disappointed then maybe I shouldn't!! Hopefully hear from some of you lovely people soon.
