I am a 36 year old man with a son that is 2 years old. He is my life and comes before anything, every day with him is a new one. I am looking to make new friends. I have been single over a year. I'm ready to date again. My son and I are 1 and we both have to be respected and he will not meet the women I date for many months. I am ready for a companion (not meaning a sexual one), I miss the affection & someone to have dinner with and cuddle & watch a movie & spend some of my weekend with that women, when my sons is gone to moms for the weekend. I am a hopeless romantic and I love to cook and no not from a box LMAO. I like to read suspense books, I like write poetry and taking pictures and using them as a background for my poetry. I like a variety of music, I like Sarah Mclachlan & country. I like to go for walks by the water as the sunsets and read a book and enjoy the outdoors. I enjoy taking my son for bikes rides to the river and seeing him explore things and his adorable reactions.



Miserable Beauty

Misery is an old friend
I seem to welcome it
Encourage it to stay
I think it likes my company
My dusty crumbling home
My ragged ancient clothes
It does not mind at all
Why should I?
Beautiful one
He often says to me
When he comes
I do not see it
It does not matter
So much to me
Though to him
It is worth boasting of
He likes to place
My beauty
On a pedestal
He claims the angels
Should be able to see me
& To admire me.
He desires to
Dress me
with fancy clothes he procures
He likes to Bathe me
Like a child
He wishes to
Strip away my dust-filled drabness
And cast out my companion
Filthy misery.
I do not comply
With his desires
He whines for
My benefit
But relents in the end
He tells me
I am beautiful still
My sorrowing eyes will always
Wound him
Their alluring green pools
Enthrall him.
He runs a cold hand
Through my tangled hair
Offering me
A lover’s kiss
Then he departs
Leaving me mercifully
Alone again
With my beautiful misery
At some kind of
Peace, again
Disregarding my
Miserable beauty

A first date, to meet in a public place & grab a refreshment and go for a walk and talk and get acquainted. If the meeting goes well, when we exchange phone numbers and talk and make arrangements to hangout again.
