Equally pulled by spirituality as by entrepreneurship. I currently have a 2 yo boss... err, daughter... that I'm raising by myself. I believe it's healthy for her to have a male presence in her life, an "uncle" or a father-type figure, especially as she gets older and notices that other little girls have this. Thus I'm preferably looking for male co-parent (gay or hetero), but I'm certainly open to female. I prefer a platonic co-parent because I think it's less prone to the whims of romance. But I'm open to what the universe brings.

Ideally I'd like for the co-parent to have an active presence in her life. Which I think can be mutually joyful (for both you and her... and me). I think this relationship can be very beneficial if you are a male (or female) who struggles with fertility but still wants the joys of having a child... in a capacity that we can mutually agree to, I'm very open and an outside-the-box thinker.

I'm also open to having a second child. I conceived my child naturally and had her via a natural (and magical) vaginal delivery. But alas, time changes and there are no guarantees in this game.

Financially I'm very stable. I split my time between Providence RI (where I run my own business) and NYC (where most of my roots and friends are). I own my own home in both. There is space in my home for an extra person or two. I'm also open to relocating (though this is not my preferred option). I lived abroad in several countries in Europe and Latin America, so I'd be open to that too. I speak fluent Spanish and Romanian. Overall I'm very adaptable and good with languages. I used to be a very driven type A, but have spent the last few years finding more balance, healing and pursuing inner growth. I've always lived my life very unconventionally, following my inner compass, so I'm open to outside-the-box co-parenting arrangements and finding joy together in creative ways.

Fun fact: I had a platonic best-friend who was my roomate, best friend, business partner and life partner for approx 14 years. We even talked about adopting a child at one point (we had already lived together for years and ran a business together). Things ultimately did not work out, but for 14 years they did. Our lives (professional and personal) were more intertwined than most married couples, we vacationed together, lived together and worked together. Which is to say: I have a lot of experience in unconventional platonic relationships, and have been able to navigate them quite well. I also know the pitfalls to avoid.

Ideally I'm seeking a relationship that is respectful and friendly, but also filled with warmth and laughter (I'm a very warm, affectionate person). Someone who wants to bring child/ren into this world who are loved and supported unconditionally.
