Not sure if I should have said dating instead of long term since you need a date first in order to get to long term. Anyway I am a semi retired business person that has the time, and means to entertain and travel, either a weekend getaway or an extended trip in the USA or Internationally works for me. I moved from Pittsburg Pa.too Florida 38 years ago and have enjoyed living both in Boca Raton as well as here in Central Florida. I am the type of person who likes to explore what is around the bend, over the hill, or find an interesting spot to toss an anchor for a day or so. I am a touchy,feely Italian guy who still is very much interested in romance, and all that goes with it. From my experience I believe that in order for any relationship to work at least for me (assuming the chemistry and compatibility are there) it takes a combination of a very healthy sexual appetite, a sense of humor, as well as the intellectual ability to communicate with each other on many levels. If you feel the same I would enjoy hearing from you, so don't be bashful. If that does not work for you I do wish you well on your search. While we all seem to have some baggage that comes from life's experiences, I would hope it would be limited to carry on size.

Lunch, dinner, drinks, or whatever it takes to spend enough time to get to know the person and see if the chemistry is right to take it to the next leval.
