Have you ever felt like you’re in checkmate? Like you’re not in a great situation relationship-wise, but for various reasons you can’t leave? That’s where I’m at.

I’m looking for something exciting and something to look forward to each day. Everything else is great, but I would love to have someone that I can be myself around and enjoy chatting with.

I’m 42 and enjoy reading, rugby, and being outdoors. As far as TV goes, classic Simpsons, Conan O’Brien and anything with Leslie Nielsen are my staples. Physically, I’m 5’11 in good shape with a closely trimmed beard and hazel eyes.

Who I’m looking for: I don’t want to be disingenuous and say looks don’t matter, they do. Physically I’m attracted to curvier women, especially up top. Having said that, a connection is very very important. A great connection amplifies the attraction, and vice versa.

I’d love someone who is outgoing, kind, and genuinely interested in other people.

If I don’t sound terrible, I wouldn’t mind you saying hello.
