Just a quick note .... a f f has changed their policy. In the past, when a woman sent me an email here I was allowed to read it and reply. Well, they have removed that "benefit", so I can no longer read emails sent to me here. If you see I'm online, I'm also usually signed into im - feel welcome to stop in and say "hi" ... I promise I won't bite .........................too hard...................lol. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kind of an atypical guy here (on this website). I'm just looking for one good woman, who's also looking one good man. Also, would prefer a ltr. I realize the chances of finding that here are slim, but thought I'd give it a try. I prefer to devote my energies to one per, learning what pleases her, and hopefully she would reciprocate. But, until that per is found, I'm not opposed to having a little fun along the way, because, that could possibly be the one I was searching for to begin with. And if not, hopefully we had an enjoyable time together. What I'm looking for, is to meet new people and see if there's any spark. Sex is nice, but so is good conversation (which makes any potential sex that much better), as well as doing other things outside the bedroom (besides sex .. lol) Long term, well, is to meet someone compatible, and still likes to have sex on a regular basis, and keeps the lines of communication open. especially when things aren't going smoothly. Anything else you'd like to know, well, ask. Pete (I enjoy sports (watching and participating), music (just about all kinds except and hip-hop, (even Ray Charles said isn't music)).)(Outside things- like yard work, bonfires. Road trips. Ask, and we can talk about it ....) update: well damn - I've been bamboozled. Played like a puppet on a string. She knows who she is ... Pretty rare that I get myself fooled/thrown for a curve as just happened. But, at least I found out now (tonight)(2/12/'15), so I can start moving forward. Just a damn shame. Had it been the real thing, it could have been wonderfully awesome. (sigh) (and yes, people reading this may say "you fkn idiot, you're in aff, what'd you expect? lol") Well, I knew the risks going in, and as I already said, I'm not easily fooled ..... Just goes to show ya, I guess. epilogue: I do wear my heart on my sleeve, though it is usually concealed. But even with the pain caused by the heartache, I'm not going to change who I am, or how I treat people. I do my best to live by the idea of: treat others as you would like to be treated. And for me, that is open, honest communication, and developing trust (with a lot of humor thrown in). Not just in good times, but more importantly, when things aren't going smoothly, and there are questions to be answered, concerns to be addressed, emotions to be acknowledged, etc. Too often people give up on a relationship, or potential relationship, because it's the easy way out. And it is uncomfortable to discuss things that are potentially adversarial in nature. It takes work, even from the beginning. (once a common bond and attraction have been established.) It's been said there are many fish in the sea. That is true. But my experience has led me to believe that out of the many fish in the sea, there are very few that are meant for me. So, when someone does come around, I take the bull by the horns, so to speak. And that is something I need to tone down, and I realize that. It's a lifelong learning process. Even at my age .... (Kinda wordy ... sorry 'bout that.)

My Ideal Person Ideal person? There isn't one. I don't want to list traits, because then a potential partner/mate won't contact me or consider me because of what I listed. I like all kinds of women. Height, Hair color, eye color, hair length, breast size, really doesn't matter. That all takes back seat to the personality. If that clicks, then everything else kind of falls into place.
