I could regale you with some witty response to your post or I could simply introduce myself with a fairly boring and regular “Hello.” Sticking with the mundane and latter approach, please know that what I seek is anything but that.

I’m lonely, kind, strong, masculine, genuine, caring, passionate, sensual, fit, educated and giving, to name a few characteristics and traits. Yes, like everyone on here, I am flawed too. I’m looking for a woman who can be both friend and lover. She who enjoys not just lingering soft kisses that cascade down neck and collarbones, but a man with whom she can share and feel both safe and welcomed. A sometimes shoulder to lean on, ear to listen and provider of the release we all need.

I’m 45, white and in the lower Hudson Valley area. Maybe we can chat more and see where we can go. If not, I wish you best in your journey and pursuits.
