I'm fairly confident you exist... somewhere...
So, this great adventure started out with perhaps an overly idealistic notion that I would on adult classifieds ads Fruitland MD e day meet that certain special someone (over two years in the making, but who's counting?). A gal roughly my age, cute, down-to-earth, intelligent with a great sense of humor. More and more, I find that I would be willing to settle for a "less-than-root-canal-painful" dinner date. One in which you didn't feel the urge to set yourself on fire during the appetizers before the fast acting Hemlock can take affect. Or, have to suffer countless hours of flashbacks afterwards involving the ex-wife: yes, the marriage wasn't great but could it be that fate presented me the one and only chance I would ever have of connecting with another human being and then steal it back as some sort of weird existential penance? After all, I am hard-pressed to believe that finding someone to relate to is so difficult. Then again, I may be mistaken. Online posting, I know, can be the hard way to meet someone but, then again, so can the bar or club scene, neither of which appeal to me personally. Myself, in a nutshell, I am a 44 year-old, divorced male; no children - just an ex-wife. I am HWP or very close to it (Like most folks, I could stand to lose ten pounds and I am working on it). Although I am not the typical Idaho Marlboro man in the making (no hunting, fishing, camping, etc - as a general rule; I have done them and get the general gist), I do have a number of interests and enjoy having fun. As opposed to all of the other folks out there that dread the idea of having a good time. I am well-educated, professional, and capable of carrying on a fairly decent conversation. I have all the basic requisites - an apartment, my own car, and a job and generally consider myself independent and self-sufficient. My appearance is neat and clean; shirts and ties as opposed to wife-beaters and tattoos. Perhaps my luck would change if the latter where true? Hmmm...? I will admit, my humor can be quirky and edgy, at times, but that shouldn't be mistaken for lacking taste or compassion. Trust me on this; I give 'til it hurts. What I am looking for is a down-to-earth, easy-going, intelligent, creative, and funny woman between the ages of 35 and 45. A little younger or older is ok but it should be noted, I've been told I look younger than my age and older women have found this uncomfortable and younger ones incompatible with actually being older than I appear (there is developmental psychology involved somewhere, right?). I prefer thin to average built women. Before all the BBW's out there get too offended, the figure eight is a shape as much as round is. And, there are men who prefer larger gals. I'm just not one of them. Ideally, I would like a long-term relationship but I probably won't get married again. I like having my own hobbit hole, a sanctuary in time of need. My ideal partner-in-crime would be liberal in her political leanings and non-religious as am I. She would have a number of interests many of which would differ from mine as I like to be challenged to try new things. That's how we continue to grow, by branching out every now and then into something different (as long as it's not threatening to life or limb). There you have it. Although I'm beginning to believe that I may not be compatible with one other person in Idaho (or anywhere else for that matter), I'm going to try and remain optimistic. You may be her and that would certainly be grand beyond my wildest expectations. Who knows? If not, thanks for dropping by, taking a gander at this humble post. I wish you all the best in your search.
