About Me

---
Who am I? That's a question we all ask ourselves. Can we ever truly know? Aren't we constantly changing, evolving, growing? Ideally, we should be.
On the outside, I am a 30 year old, red-headed dude living in York, PA, but I sincerely doubt I'll be staying here my whole life. I have no idea where I'd like to settle down, but York isn't the best place. It’s all up in the air right now, open for that constant change and evolution. I initially moved out here to take care of horses A few years later, I suddenly discovered that I had somehow evolved from being a horse whisperer shoveling shit out of stalls, into a dog whisperer, shoveling shit into mailboxes. Yes, I am an honest to goodness mailman employed by the United States Postal Service. Years later, I still catch a glimpse of my little blue shorts, stop, and say, "Holy shit, I'm a mailman!" I never imagined this is where I'd end up, but here I am.
However, my big goal/dream in life is to be able to make a living writing screenplays. I have been a fan of the arts, especially cinema, all my life. Name the movie, and I’ve probably seen it, and analyzed its script. I'm not kidding. I'm a movie addict; a cinephile. Creating my own stories and characters to live out my personal fantasies or questions of life, is one thing I truly have a passion for, and I hope to be able to share that passion with others in the hopes that they learn, feel, and think because of it. I want to do my part in making our world better.
Relationships: I am currently seeing and living with an incredibly wonderful girl, whom I love very much. However, we are both polyamorous, and are open to seeing other people. A standard misconception of poly people is that we're shallowly sex addicted people who can't commit, when in reality, it's anything but. In fact, I always commit to the people I love, and sex is always a very special and emotional act for me. I just feel it can be shared with more than one person. And if I've sent you a message, it's not because I'm looking for sex, or a relationship, or trying to get you into a threesome with my girlfriend, or any of that other bullshit. I never seek those things. All I seek is to make mental and emotional connections with new friends.
On the inside: I am a very open-minded person. I’m willing to try anything twice (unless it could harm myself or others), I respect others’ views/quirks/fetishes/lifestyles/etc, and I constantly strive to learn and experience new things. I read a lot about science, philosophy, religion, and cultures.
Humor plays a large roll in my life, and I have an odd (and sometimes dark)sense of it. All things ironic, macabe, and absurd tend to tickle my ribs, and I (to the horror of most around me) have a wicked capacity for pun attacks. Much like the majestic ape will fling his poo, Aaron flings his puns.
I love deep, intelligent conversation. I love trying to figure out how to make the world a better place, and contemplating answers to “what if” questions, yet, I always try to live in the moment. I want to experience Right Now. There’s no sense in worrying too much about the future, or clinging onto your past. What you’re living is this moment; this second; this blink of an eye. Enjoy it while you can, learn everything from it that you can, because it’s forever gone in a heartbeat. Don’t be afraid to express your feelings and emotions. Always communicate, and always do it openly and honestly. Without truth, there is no trust, and without trust, we are alone. With isolation, there is no love, and love is what keeps the world together.
If any of these words hold a place in your heart or imagination; if you want to discuss life, the universe, and everything; or if you’re seeking a like-minded friend, I would love to hear from you.

Nobody can clip my wings. I'm a self-taught ugly duckling.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Well...I want to meet someone like me. Someone I can spend time with, share myself with, and just generally connect with. A sense of humor and open-mindedness are mandatory, and having a good deal of intelligence helps immensely. I'm fairly well learned, and can launch into deep conversations about anything from the nature of self, to spirituality, to quantum physics, to the meaning of life, and it's hard to have a one sided conversation on those kinds of topics. On the flip side though, it'd be nice to have totally insane goofy conversations too.
I want to meet someone who can find a good time in curling up together and watching a movie while eating Mac & Cheese. I want friends not afraid to show affection and share their thoughts and feelings. People who believe in honesty and communication at all times. Someone who can feel comfortable leaning on me when they need to and can lend their shoulder when the problems are reversed. I want friends who are not threatened or weirded out by my lifestyle. I know how to keep a friend, a friend, whether we're plutonic or intimate with one another.
I like dorks and geeks and general weirdos, the people not afraid to be themselves and like the things they want to like. I'm a very mentally androgynous person, and tend to get along best with similar minds. Gender, racial, religious, and sexual stereo-types are both close-minded, and reverse the progress of civilisation and human evolution.
Simply put: If you strive to better yourself and better humanity, I'd love to talk to you.

Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question, is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "hey - don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride." ~ Bill Hicks
