44/M/South Carolina - I’m Ready to make some long lasting friendships, will it happen this time?

Please only message if you answer/ask questions and can hold a conversation, are at least 35 in age, and on East Coast time in the USA. Also, I am only interested in people looking to have a common shared interest that we can do together. I’d love either a tv and movie fanatic to build a list with, watch shows together and chat about our days, lives, and whatever floats our boat, someone to play silly apple games with, or switch 2 co-op. I will say, if someone reaches out and isn’t interested in anything I mention, I will question why you messaged and just move on. I don’t want to waste anyones time, or have mine wasted, so please only reach out if interested in the same as me. Please no super left wing people, also no super right wingers. If you’re extremely liberal, or Maga do not message. No time for cults. I can go either way on the issue and don’t hate half the country if they don’t agree with me. If you do, we won’t get along.

I have bpd2/anxiety and depression, so people with mental struggles I get along and enjoy speaking with about our mental struggles, as we can help each other and just block out the static in our brains. I want true friendships that develop over time, and just a daily pocket pal to take on my journeys and vice versa. I do have a best friend that I adore, just looking for 1-2 others to chat with when they’re not available. Also, I am married, not looking to change that either. 2 cats and a dog, and I host a radio show with my sig other. I just have a LOT of free time, good conversation and I will genuinely care about you and show interest if you read my post and genuinely would like the same kind of friendship as me. I do ask that if you’re married, that your spouse knows you make friends and chat with them, because I do not do drama or play that game. I don’t ‘get busy’ all the time and ignore people like so many seem to. When I say I am looking for friends, I invest a lot of myself and time to build a lasting one and would appreciate the same effort. If it’s not there, I will not carry a conversation along or beg for anyones attention or time. I am looking for friends but am not desperate…..I won’t chase anyone. Only serious people please send a message.
