So I get it. You start a conversation with a guy and it’s going great. He is so sweet and charming. He makes you feel so good. You send him a pic and he gushes about how beautiful you are. He has never interacted with someone like you before. Things progress and it gets flirty. He asks for a private pic. Something a little risky. You are flattered and send it. He is ecstatic and raves about how sexy you are and how he wants this to be long term. You exchange sexy talk and it gets extremely intense and intimate. This guy is perfect. It’s a dream come true. You text him that and his reply is…

Nothing, he does not reply…ever. He got what he wanted and ghosted you.

I won’t do that.

I am looking to find someone who wants a long term OA.

Why me? What do I bring to the table?

1. Maturity, I am 55 and I have seen and experienced a lot. Life is short and we deserve to experience what life offers.

2. I am cute. Well I think so. I am not hard to look at but I am not a model. I am also a little heavy but I am working on that.

3. Stability. I have a good job that I have worked hard to achieve. It’s M-F but I can message through out the day and evening.

4. Articulate. I like writing, I was a journalist in my younger years. I enjoy messaging so you won’t get one sentence answers. I mean look at this post.

5. Affectionate. I am romantic and love to make you smile and feel tingly. I will shower you with attention and compliments. A good thought about someone is wasted if not shared with that person.

6. Intelligent, I just complete my master’s degree recently and I am well read. I can hold and carry a conversation and a deep meaningful talk reenergizes me.

There is more but I have to leave something for us to talk about. I live with my wife in our own house in Calgary. Two children both in their twenties. I love reading mainly literature and fiction. Enjoy searching for books on my list at thrift stores and used book stores. Big fan of Formula 1 racing and a diehard Ferrari fan. Enjoy travelling and hope to head to Mexico again this winter. I kind of enjoy clothes and dressing nice. Part of why I am losing weight. More clothes options. Might even show you what I would like to see you wear, but I am not controlling about such things. My two favourite movies are napoleon dynamite and the hangover. I saw that! You just rolled your eyes. Hate to admit this but tears flow easily for me when I am moved. So yes I cry during movies. Do I have to turn on my Manly Man card? It’s been over ten years but I still miss my brother who died. I think about him often. MS sucks. Do I hike? Fuck no. I might start but not really my thing.

Basically I am a catch who has tried to have a more meaningful intimate relationship but it takes two to want it. As long as you’re not a minor I will reply to you if you message me. I am open to younger women but we would have to click early on. I am not into video games and anime so keep that in mind. I do want to be attracted to you so please be willing to exchange photos. If I am going to do this it has to check off a lot of boxes to take the risk. I am curious to see who read all this so tell me your favourite colour in your message. Mine is brown.
