Ok, ok, I'm a guy, I know about the F to M ratio situation in here so this is likely to get lost in the chaos. I know I'm not in a position to ask or demand a bunch of things from a potential AP, but I still have a fantasy to find 'the one', just like you ladies. But I still have hopeful expectations to find my new best friend.

I'd love to find someone I can chat with daily, I need it. I need the emotional connection. The communication and interest in each other with slowly but surely blossom into a passionate love affair, sexy time included. This isn't my first time and I'm only interested in a long term, online affair.

With that said, I'm currently in a dead marriage that's getting worse with counseling. We'll likely stay together for the kids, for now. We've been married 17 years but have grown apart. Don't worry, we aren't intimate (I won't be cheating on you) and you won't hear me complain about her because I'd rather talk about literally anything else. On that note, she's never available to talk in person or otherwise and that's something I desperately crave, communication, communication, communication. I want to talk to each other about each other. I'm a great communicator and I'm very well educated on a vast array of subjects and I have lots of interests and hobbies.

I'm a 'fall head over heels' type of guy because I have a tendency to romanticize relationships and go all in with my heart first. I know it's possible because I've had it before, long term, and need it again. I really am looking for a best friend I can talk to regularly and eventually get intimate with.

I prefer to leave everything else up to the discovery phase but I'm open to swapping pictures right away because general physical attraction is obviously important.

Hope to hear from you soon. Edited to add from the East Coast

My only turn offs are BBW/Plus size and self identified potheads (occasional weed is one thing but if it's you're whole identity then, pass).
