I am on this thing between ten at night and one in the morning, and nowhere else

Looking for
somebody whose free hours happen to be the same strange ones
Experience
Five years, two arrangements, both around a rota.
Around
out towards Lanarkshire, Glasgow

Ten at night until about one. That is when I exist on here, four nights out of seven, and it makes my last active time look like somebody with a problem. It is a back shift. I get home, I eat, and that is the only stretch of the day that belongs to me.

The trouble is that most of this city is asleep by then, so I have a queue full of people who were last online at nine, and by the time they answer I am at work. I have had three conversations die of nothing but a twelve hour lag between messages.

Thirty two, out towards Lanarkshire, switch, five years in, two arrangements and both of them worked because the other person also had a rota.

What I want is somebody whose hours are similarly awkward, or somebody organised enough that we agree a time to talk properly rather than trading a message a day for a month.

I go both ways and I am clear about which and when. Not looking for anybody who needs replies during the day. Not looking to be told I should just message in my break. Not looking for a person who reads a twelve hour gap as a snub.

What to have sorted before you reply

Which direction is on the table this month is not in the post, and asking flat out reads badly. That takes a conversation, and a conversation needs a room you can walk out of.
