It's about midnight here. Like many here, I'm married and a father. Most of my days are spent at work, doing chores around the house, helping with homework, and watching soccer games and dance classes. It's great, but all pretty monotonous and routine at this point.

My wife and I are both successful professionals with graduate degrees. Everything looks fine on the outside. But we've basically agreed to stay together for our kids, and we live separate lives at this point. We sleep in separate bedrooms, and I haven't had sex in about 6 years, Initially, I started this account to find sexting partners. But I realized that I missed having an emotional connection someone special. Don't get me wrong, I still want to sext ... but I also want more than that. I want to talk about random stuff that entertains us. So, here I am OA community.

As for me, I'm about 5'10 and very fit. I like to run, rock climb, and generally stay pretty active. I love fitness challenges. I recently ran an ultramarathon and am looking to train for another. I'm also into politics, podcasts, comedy, comics, movies, anime, video games and hip hop (I also have a fairly decent knowledge of Taylor Swift). I'm the type of person that listens to GNX and then transitions to The Daily or Today Explained or a comedy podcast. I'm fairly liberal, so I don't think I'd get along with any MAGA types out there.

I'm looking for a lady who also values fitness to chat (about any of the above topics or whatever you think is interesting), flirt, and sext with if the vibe is right. I have a pretty busy job, but I usually check messages throughout the day and chat at night after everyone goes to bed. I'm more than happy to exchange pics early on (I am concerned with privacy so I don't typically show my face). Someone in the Pacific time zone would probably work best, but I'm open to people from other time zones.

Thanks for bearing with any typos or grammatical errors. I'm not great at typing long passages on my phone!

I look forward to meeting you. I thought about putting an exclamation point there but thought, "am I using too many exclamation points? Is it weird?" This is how I think ...
