I am an educated man who is looking for intelligent conversation and friendship. Maybe more if the chemistry is right. I am married so if that bothers you please just pass me by.

Coffee or drinks and some "get to know you" conversation would be great. By then we should know where it is going. That is about what I would expect if meeting a complete stranger. Can't really plan anything until I hear from someone worth meeting. I like sports, old movies, new movies, literature, chess, and all kinds of music. I am a retired college professor and now write full-time. I also write songs. The three things a woman should have are: intelligence, humor, and passion. And not just sexual passion, but passion about something worthwhile.

The world can be a very, lonely place for people when they reach out age. A good friend is always great to have.
