I hope wherever you are, you're having an evening of pure joy and celebration and your worries are far away but if you're lonely and not alone and surrounded by people with an excitement you cannot access know you are not alone. I hope this time next year you're understood, matched, appreciated, desired and secure in the knowledge you're sharing the emotion of the night with someone worthy of your love.
Perhaps it's because I place too high an expectation on "having my person" being a catalyst for enjoying life but as I watch the new year barreling in across the Atlantic and rolling over New York I'm struck again with an annual bout of melancholy. Perhaps, if you're so inclined we could commiserate.
It's not 2025 just yet here in the Midwest. But they've already sung Auld Lang Syne, that awful maudlin melody in New York.
I want to go on virtual movie dates (I've an entire catalog of bad movies to make you watch), and be a two person book club. I want to listen to your sad-girl playlist. I want to rub brains with you.
I'm a big, burly, broad-shouldered, bald, bearded, bespectacled, blaspheming, bi-curious-curious bibliophile. A logophile, story-teller, illustrator, dungeon master, game-maker, inconsistent hyphenator, champion-of-the-serial-comma, and night owl. Iām progressive, pro-choice, pro-science, anti-fascist, and sex-positive. I'm left of Bernie, and an ex-cultist.
My kink is explicitly expressed consent and my limit is anything less than egalitarian parity.
A little house-keeping: we should be in a similar situation relationship-wise. Married with kids, living in separate rooms, starving for intimacy. Emotionally and physically done with our partners but lacking an option to leave. Please be older than thirty-five and an art-lover.
