Dantley is a special guy. He’s unique and will match your energy to get closer to you. Ladies, he is not a typical guy that you’ll meet. So if you ever get a chance to meet him, you are lucky! Dantley loves to chill and cuddle with you while watching his favorite movie storks. He’s not much into horror but he doesn’t mind it. He is passionate about government and politics so he can go on for HOURS about it. He also cares about his work and his future plans. By the way he’s good at math in his head! He treats people with respect and kindness. He values your opinion and will make relationship work if you show equal effort. Dantley is also super affectionate!! Although sometimes he likes his bubble back. He might get too into conversation when he’s talking to other people so make sure you remind him that you’re there too ;) He’s not the best at texting but he makes that up from talking to face to face. You’ll absolutely adore him if you ever get to be his friend or girlfriend :)
Believe it or not, Dantley’s favorite drink is water!
