Hi,
I'm 5'10, 170lbs. Dark Hair (short hair) some Grey. Dark Goatee [a lot more Grey in the facial hair].
I'm not married (divorced in 2014), I don't have kids, I've had a vasectomy.
Here's my Ideal situation:
I meet a very "amorous" but monogamous woman between the age of 25[*] and 35 who likes to get together 1-3 times a week for Cuddling and watching Movies/TV shows & listening to music together.
I also enjoy night drives (to nowhere in particular), dining out, seeing movies on the bigscreen, and the occasional Live Musical event.
[Video games are also on the table... but I'm not a heavy gamer... so if "Gamer Guy" is your "swipe left" redflag, please reconsider... I have all the necessary hardware for the purpose of playing games, but I mainly keep it around for when my 12yo nephew comes to visit. I keep video games around for the same reason I have Board games, DVDs/Streaming, and a Record collection. It's just one more tool in my arsenal for socializing].
Here's a small sampling of my tastes:
Music:
Aphex Twin, Depeche Mode, Β΅-ziq, The Human League, Yaz, Brian Wilson (Beach Boys), Earth Wind Fire, ELO, Nine Inch Nails, The Pharcyde, Souls of Mischief, Donny Benet, Home, Dick Dale, Man or Astro-man, Terminal 11, Efterklang, MxPx, The Dead Kennedys
Movies: Everything Everywhere all at Once, You me and Everyone we Know, Eternal Sunshine, Being John Malkovich, 13th Floor, They Live, Back to the Future II, Thor Ragnarok, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Big Lebowski, Return of the Jedi, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Enthiran, A.I. , Beneath the Valley of the Ultra Vixens, Everything is Terrible II, The Music Man, Grease, Goonies, The Princess Bride, Total Recall, Robocop, Kindergarten Cop, Problem Child.
TV:
I think you should leave, The Mandalorian, Better Call Saul, Alf, 30 Rock, News Radio, Animaniacs, Fringe, X-Files, Better off Ted, Columbo, Γon Flux, Star Trek TNG, What we do in the Shadows, IT Crowd
Food: Sushi, Pizza, Burgers, Thai [Panag Curry], Indian [Chicken Tiki Masala]
Dislikes:
Bigotry, Sports, Nazi's, Self Help Gurus, Pearl Clutching, Careless and/or Aggressive Drivers
I think this is a good stopping point for this advert.
I'm an honest and well-mannered dude, but I'm also not "too woke to take a joke".
If you'd like to know more, I'm an open book, ask me anything
Peace
[*] I know 25-35 seems like an odd age range for someone in their 40s, but I dated a lot of women that were older than me when I was in my 20s and 30s, and it was a really bad time. [Literally women with little more than a high-school education treating me like I'm inferior just because they've been on the planet a couple more years than me. I'm not about that. My last longterm relationship was with someone 9 years younger than me, and It was the best relationship I've had so far... so I've decided 25 is the absolute lowest age I'd be comfortable with, and 35 is the soft limit on the oldest. It was nice to be able to be able to share Music/TV/Movies from my Teen & Childhood years, with someone that maybe wasn't exposed to that media because it wasn't part of their childhood].
The other reason why I don't "just date someone my own age". Is honestly because there are life experiences that I don't relate to, that many women of my age group are right in the middle of. [Namely having kids already, wanting to have kids, wanting to get married, wanting to live with a significant other].
I've been married, it wasn't for me. I'm an introvert. I didn't realize it until I got married and always had another person in the same house (in the same room a good portion of the time)... that I need a good apartment complex's worth of space between me and my significant other so I can decompress, alone, after socializing. I also don't have kids, don't want kids, and don't want to raise someone else's kids.
For me, the age gap is not about fetish.
For me, the age gap is more about trying to find someone that's kind of in the same headspace as me socially.
