Hi!

Thanks for clicking on my post. I have reached a point in my life where I am too often feeling like the world is crumbling in around me. Specifically, I have a parent that is ill, and not likely to be around much longer, I am going through a divorce and it isn't pretty so far, and my work life has been extra stressful as of late.

When I met my soon to be ex, I threw myself into the relationship with everything I had. This put me into a very isolated position, and now that the relationship is over, I am feeling a desperate need to connect with someone. I don't just need a friend though. I need a physical connection. Someone to touch. I don't really want to jump directly into a new serious relationship. I guess, really what I am looking for is what the kids these days call a friend with benefits. Sounds and feels weird to say that. But it is what it is. That said, I would prefer someone local, but I am OK with online if that's what I can get.

Stuff I am into: Basketball Rollerskating Dungeons and Dragons Star Wars Marvel Sci-Fi Movies TV Walks Cooking Baking

Physical description: I am 5'10". Average weight. Dark brown hair (male pattern baldness so I shave my head). Hazel eyes. I have a beard but I trim it when I shave my head, so it never gets super long. I have lots of grays in my goatee area. I think I am pretty average looking honestly, though I have been told I am the "hot neighbor".

As awkward as it might be, I feel I ahould touch on my past a little. My ex was not the most open, sexually, and as a result, I think that I have had some repressed urges and fantasies that I would like to explore, though not a requirement by any means. I would prefer to discuss this privately though, so please just ask.

In an ideal world, whoever is responding would be attractive, kind, and have a good sense of humor. I do think that personality is more important than physical appearance, but physical appearance plays a big role in whether we find someone attractive or not. Not sure where I am going with that, but exchanging pictures would be nice.

Lastly, because of the divorce, my schedule and availability are a nightmare, so please be a patient person, and be flexible and forgiving regarding the timing of any in person meet-up.

Thanks
