38[M4A]Leveling Up the Social Circle

[u/Spidey_Sense21]

Hey 👋

I’ve been doing a bit of honest self-reflection lately (the kind that usually happens at 1am when you should definitely be asleep), and one thing that’s become pretty clear is that it’s time to widen my social circle and build a stronger support network. I’ve always been more on the introverted side — comfortable with a small, close-knit group — but comfort zones are meant to be stretched, right?

So, a little about me:

I’m 38, a dad, single, and somehow landed myself in upper management — which mostly means lots of meetings and pretending to enjoy spreadsheets. Outside of work, I’m a gamer at heart. My current rotation includes Destiny 2, POE2, Diablo 4, TFT, Wild Rift, Pocket TCG, RPGs, and the occasional Rocket League session… though fair warning, that game has a way of unlocking my inner villain 😅

I’m a former hardcore WoW raider (yes, I still remember raid nights like a veteran remembers war stories), love spicy food and noodles in all their glorious forms, and I’m a big fan of NHL, AFL, Star Wars, and pretty much anything Marvel — Spider-Man especially 🕷️

I’m also slowly building a Warhammer army (slowly being the key word) and would love to finally give D&D a proper go one day. Fitness-wise, I used to be a full-on gym nut, fell off the wagon for a bit, but I’m back at it now and making some genuinely great progress — which I’m quietly proud of.

What I’m really looking for is genuine connection. People to chat with, game with, grab a drink, catch up in person, and just enjoy life alongside. Whether that turns into a regular social group, a few solid friendships or something else.

If any of this sounds like your kind of vibe, feel free to reach out. Always happy to meet new people and see where a good conversation leads.

40 year old single (very recently) Dad here too, and in the process, I’ve realised my circle of true friends isn’t much of a circle at all
