So here I am, back with fresh material. It seems like maybe I should put the same effort into my posts as I do in the actual getting to know you/relationship portion of this whole juncture. I guess I'll start with what I'm looking for. I'm looking for someone who is ideally looking for something as valid and real as I am. I do want the full relationship, and ideally you are close enough to my location where we could at least meet once or twice a month, even if its just for coffee or lunch. If you're too far away have no fear, you may not be able to help with everything I'm looking for, but I would love to get to know you and maybe work out a way we could eventually meet face to face. I've had great LDAP situations with people from as far away as Europe.

So I'm looking for someone who I can be close to not only physically, although that would be nice, but emotionally is much more important to me. I want to hear about your day, the good and the bad. I want to wake up or have you wake up with a good morning message, and not go to bed without saying goodnight. Physically as long as you are confident in who you are that is more than enough. If you have a killer smile and eyes even better. I just prefer that you are able to hold a conversation and participate, rather than making me conduct an interrogation. It also really does help when you reach out that you tell me a little about yourself instead of just saying "Hi" as then we can start getting to know each other without me asking you to tell me a little about yourself immediately anyways. Its nice to start on at least a semi-even footing as I'm telling you so much about me and what I'm looking for.

About myself, I was once a chef until an unforeseen circumstance took me out for the time being. I'm currently in limbo between finding something else to do for the rest of my life, or getting back into the kitchen. I'm an unhappily married dad to maybe the greatest little girl there ever was, and I watch her whenever I'm not working. Physically I'm very tall with a little more than a dadbod going on. I have medium long brown hair and green eyes that enjoy changing shade or occasionally adding some color now and then. I've been told I have a nice smile (and eyes), and I can promise I'll make you laugh within a day or two of regular conversation.

I really do hope to hear from you, single, married, attached, whatever. Even if you just want to talk. If you for whatever reason are a man and have made it this far, feel free to see what's up and maybe we could hang out one day, I could always use more friends.
