I am not new to this. After having some time between an amazing affair ending, I realised there are still parts of that type of relationship that I need and miss. I want something special with one woman.

I am hardworking, educated and have a good professional career. I have a family and hobbies. Despite seeming to be busy I have the time to put into this for the right person. I want the slow burn, sparks, and emotional connection which to me translates ultimately to a girlfriend.

Looking for the type of person that loves to laugh, wants be there for each other on bad days, tell bad jokes, and just be able to talk about anything and everything. Someone willing to be open and honest despite the irony of the relationship.

Despite what I tend to see on a lot of other posts, it's not all about the sex for me, although that part is always fun, it's the intimacy that goes along with it that I'm after. The intimacy and passion that comes with a real affair.

I feel like it is also important to mention that I'm not here to change your situation or mine. I'm also not interested in blowing up my life or yours. Discretion I feel is really important and the ideal person I'm looking for will know what that means to both of our lives.

You would be - between the ages of 33 and 45, married or in a long term stable relationship, not into drama, not afraid to catch feelings, have the time for this, can carry a conversation, and is easy going. You know that home life will always come first for both of us. You'll have fairly good chat availability and understand that the key to this is good communication. You would know how annoying having messaged left on read for extended periods can be and will appreciate when we both need some extended time between messages for whatever reason and be courteous to each other to communicate that. Mutual respect is key.

Oh and yours also located in Sydney. I would be okay to get to know someone that lives in other states of Australia, however, the ideal is that we do see each other regularly.

I really hope this hasn't come across as seeming to be really picky, but I have done this before and I know that the risk really has to be worth the reward of it all.

So if you're looking for someone fun, articulate, slightly picky, dependable, stubborn and loves to banter then please send me a message.
