About Me: Hey there, I'm Richard, and I'm on a mission to learn something new every day. I'm the kind of guy who goes after what he wants with a driver's determination. When I see something intriguing, I'm all in, exploring every avenue until the last breadcrumb disappears. My friends often tell me I'm funny, and I have a wicked sense of humor. I'm that loyal and brutally honest friend you can count on. Feeling wanted is essential to me, and I give my all in any relationship—be it friendship or romance. Hobbies and Interests: I'm a man of diverse interests. You might find me exploring the deep blue sea while scuba diving, crafting something beautiful out of wood, or belting out tunes at karaoke night. I thrive on new experiences and love to dive into the world of humor—witty, sarcastic, or even dark, it's all on the table. Funny Story: So, this one time...at band camp (no really...I have a band camp story). Let's just say, it involves a tuba, a mischievous raccoon, and an unforgettable campfire tale. My Ideal First Date: I might not have been on a real date in ages, but here's what I'd love: Dinner and a comedy show to tickle our funny bones, followed by a moonlit stroll by the river. We'd hold hands, talk, and soak in the magic of a nearly full moon. The Raymond Reddington in Me: I'd be Raymond Reddington from "The Blacklist." Like him, I can come across as pompous, arrogant, or cocky at times, but it's mostly a shield. For those I hold dear, I'll move mountains and be fiercely loyal. Cross my moral and ethical code, and you might find yourself excommunicado! Passion and Dreams: I'm a Leo, and passion runs in my veins. Whether it's unraveling the mysteries of the deep sea, exploring the ancient history of Spain, Italy, and Greece, or pursuing my engineering dreams, I give it my all. Guilty Pleasure: I confess—I'm hooked on "The Voice." But now that Blake won't be part of it, I'm not sure how it'll turn out. Change can be a good thing, right? Fun Fact: I shave my underarms because...well, why not? Life is too short not to try new things. If you're someone who enjoys a good laugh, appreciates honesty, and is ready for an adventure, I'd love to hear from you. Let's create some unforgettable memories together!

Mi persona ideal: I'm on the lookout for someone extraordinary who can complement my life in the most amazing ways. Here's what I'm hoping to find:
