I’m looking for someone who can and enjoys connecting on a higher level. Intellectually and physically. I’m looking for someone who understands the primal connection between a man and a women where two can be trusting and open with each other, both understanding that passion shared physically also translates to a higher intimacy between a man and a woman. Masculinity means something to you. Femininity means something to me. Trust is earned and respect is naturally a part of any connection but support for each other is mutually shared.

I’m looking for someone who shares similar values. I'm into health and exercise. I'm smart and driven, but don't take myself nor life too seriously outside of the things meant to be taken seriously. I'm confident yet kind and sweet - things also important to me in a woman. I am attracted to good conversation and wit and laughter shared between two partners.

I live and work downtown but am open to some travel to the ‘burbs.

I’m looking for one person who is looking for one person for FWB. I’m looking for one person who is also looking for one person. I’m clean and you must be too. Sexually, I have an open mind and it’s exciting to explore interests together but only if there’s a connection between us.

I have a sense of humor, am well educated, graduated from a good B school and am at a crossroads in my life so I'm transitioning from overly busy to a different approach. I’m looking for someone who is also interested in stealing some time away to enjoy life a bit more, have interesting conversations and express ourselves physically if we get to that point.

ABOUT ME I look younger than my age, workout, lift heavy weights religiously, have started running (we’ll see how this goes) and have a tight diet. Some say I’m handsome. You be the judge. Sure there's some dadbod there but overall, I'm fit, tall and strong. I have a full head of hair and a warm smile. I'm wholesome at my core and believe passion for life keeps the world going round. I believe strong intimacy comes from first establishing trust and openness between two people.

I'm not in a rush. We need to be able to talk and laugh together first.

Please send a note and include - because it’s reddit - your age, single/married status and location. I look forward to learning more about you. Local only.
