hi, my name's Rob. Thanks for reading this! Firstly I do not have whatsapp as I don't own a smartphone! I'm really looking for intellectual conversation, weather a physical relationship/close friendship comes out of that is another thing, it would be nice of course! I studied music technology and love music of most kinds. I am looking for something that isn't a one night thing with someone i can talk about a wide range of subjects with, and with hopefully similar interests to mine. I'm fairly shy but once you break the ice I'm fine with talking infact I enjoy it. I do have a sense of humur so try not to be offended by it! I am a romantic and fine with it, i am also quite a gentle person so if you're looking for someone matcho it ain't me. I write a bit, read a lot, listen to a lot of music especially folksy/acoustic stuff nick drake joni mitchell etc, jazz (the old stuff that doesn't go on for ever think 1920s etc), country new and old, rock and roll like buddy holly, early elvis, chuck berry etc, classic rock like deep purple, classical music, opera and a lot of early to baroque music. some of everything else. I'm one of those people who tries to appreciate the world around him and gets terribly upset about what people do to it, so kind of a hippie in some ways. I don't let my blindness effect me really obviously it does rule driving out! I live with my parents who must be very patient! If you want to know more, feel free to ask it. Please, please do try and have a conversation! someone who dislikes 2022 and it's culture or lack thereof would be most welcome. I'd feel much more at home 60 years ago than I do now. p.s. I am writing this here at the end so that you are more likely to read the entire thing, but I am totally blind. use a screen reader called nvda, that is how i see what you're writing/what is on the screen. I am very genuine and open to talk about my blindness though i do not regard it as a disability. I am one of the most independent blind people you will ever meet and it will not and does not effect my communication with people dating or anything else. thanks!
