(I weigh about 20 lbs less now than when the photos were taken and will be losing another 10 to get to my "ideal" weight. If you think I look conservative in my photo, I'm not! Inside that conservative exterior is a very liberal person.) I'm an active person (semi-retired as a Handyman) in good health, am financially secure,and in no need for Viagra: I need a good woman whom I find attractive. (My only health problem is that my hearing isn't as good as it once was - thanks to the Army.)
I'm a supportive helpmate and try to treat everyone with due respect. Very ethical, (can be) faithful, reliable, and considerate. I'm happy being a one-woman-man with the right woman. I try very hard to apply the golden rule to how I live every aspect of my life. I manage my life and won't try to run yours. I enjoy a good joke, clean or bawdy, and friendly teasing.
I enjoy both indoor and outdoor activities. I'm equally comfortable in a suit and tie or in jeans and sneakers. I used to enjoy ballroom and square dancing but am out of practice on both. Love to be out in nature, whether beach, mountains, forest, etc. Although I like to think I have a flexible nature, I don't expect either of us to try to change the other.
I'm a few pounds overweight-plump but not obese - but am losing it. I'm open to either a monogamous romantic relationship or a casual sexual one. In either case, mutual liking and respect are essential. Friendship is the basis for any worthwhile relationship. I can be just as tender and gentle or ribald/bawdy/kinky as you like.
Travel, dining in/out, entertaining, being out in nature, live theatre, movies, hiking, playing "friendly" bridge, and gardening are some of my interests. I very much enjoy hot tubing (I don't have one) and sharing massage. I won't say that I don't have a temper, however, no female I've dated in the last 30+ years has heard me say a "four-letter" word.
My Ideal Person:
You're a female who likes to be treated like a lady and enjoys being a woman.
Other things that would be plusses would be femininity, high self confidence/self esteem, a positive attitude toward life, being assertive, and, of course, a good sense of humor. Good common sense is more important than IQ or level of education. (No, I can't define what makes a woman "feminine." It aint boobs! It's more nearly an aura.) I will say that I rarely find a woman who is beyond "pleasantly plump" feminine.
I'm not looking for a one-night-stand, but hope you're a woman for whom sex is a very important part of the relationship. The relationship CAN be a primarily a sexual one, however, I'd be pleased if the relationship grew into something important and lasting. I've been "sequentially monogamous" most of my adult life. Hopefully, you enjoy a kissy-touchy-feely kind of guy who loves hot tubbing, sharing massage, cuddling skin-to-skin, and pillow talk. I'm not into S&M. Pain is not a turn-on.
I hope you enjoy weekend trips to wherever and vacationing together.
