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 and kindness between a man and a woman. Trust is earned and respect is naturally a part of any connection.

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 FWB but nothing too heavy right now. I’m working towards impending divorce proceedings. I’m interested in long term if short term works out. I’m also 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.

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 something else. 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.

I workout, lift heavy weights religiously, have started running (we’ll see how this goes) and have a tight diet. 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 kissing is one of the most intimate acts between a man and a woman and amazing things can start with the right kiss. I believe strong intimacy comes from first establishing trust and openness between two people.

I'm not in a rush. A connection is important. 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.
