My Honest Tinder Profile

Because honesty is the best policy.

My Honest Tinder Profile

Someone asked me recently, "Evan, if your Tinder profile were entirely honest, what would you say?" And that got me thinking: what would my honest Tinder profile be? What is it that I have about myself that makes me "special" or "desirable", if you choose to use that vernacular? I've been having a rough time figuring that out recently. So, here goes nothing.

I'm a busy individual. Most of my life consists of running around and doing things, and I love that. Try and keep up. I say that I love to go on adventures, and I mean that to a degree, but I think that a quality adventure is one where you learn about yourself in the process. I have adventures every day. It can be as mundane, for me, as trying something different at a coffee shop, to try and brighten my food horizons. It could be finally reading that giant autobiography of Alexander Hamilton cause I've got a penchant for American history. It could be falling too hard in love with someone and discovering the adventure of trying to navigate that. Try and keep up.

I'm an artist, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Yes, I am, in fact, the person that will break out in song in the middle of a public place. Or on a bus. Or in the middle of a library. No shame in my game. Let's just cut the stereotype that all I listen to is show tunes because I work in the theatre: that's not true in the slightest. My music tastes, like most things in this world, are varied. Some days, all I want to listen to (on repeat, mind you) is We Didn't Stop the Fire. On days when I'm not in the best mood, I'll put on some Disturbed. Yeah, I'll even put on some rap, if I feel so inclined. I love different varieties of art, and I want someone who will appreciate art with me. I want someone who finds me losing my ever loving shit in the middle of Target when my favorite song comes on endearing, not annoying. So, if this all sounds like a burden to you, firmly swipe left.

I love food. Food and I have a good thing going on. Don't kid yourself: I'm never gonna look like Channing Tatum. I will not have abs for days. At all. Ever. On a really good day, I'll look a lot like Andy Dwyer from "Parks and Rec" and that's absolutely fine with me. I'll eat anything with you. I don't believe that Lima beans are an actual food. Or green peas. Those two things are inferior foods. They deserve a special place in whatever you consider to be "Hell", and firmly stay there. Let's get food sometime.

I don't know what I'm looking for right now. I don't know if I want a relationship. I dunno if I want to meet the one person I'm "meant to spend the rest of my life with", if that even exists. I just want you to be kind. I just want you to like my family. I just want you to be able to hang out with me on my couch with some dogs and it not phase you. I want someone who will also yell at me when I get too into a cooking show cause, most of the times, those ingredients don't go in a cupcake and you cannot convince me otherwise. I want someone who will take BuzzFeed quizzes with me at 3am while I vehemently deny that I am in no way, shape, or form Monica Geller from Friends...we all know I'm a mix of Chandler and Phoebe. Just like me for me, and nothing else. That's all that I've wanted for longer than you could possibly know.

Think you can do that for me? Well then, you know what to do...

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
