I’m as honest as you can get without being malevolent(and yes folks there can be a difference. The difference is ignorance). Sometimes it gets me into trouble but I heard that it was the ‘best policy’. Or that’s what the bumper sticker said. So beware of the questions you ask, I’m not mean but a spade is a spade and a loaded question will always backfire! So no cliché questions please.
I’m the oldest of three mainland siblings in a mainstream maritime family. A small town prairie boy that came of age in the city. Perhaps that’s why I’m more of a pub guy than a club guy. I find no scenery more beautiful than an ever-expanding horizon of sea or field. A grounded guy looking towards the heavens, though I don’t know why. Perhaps for angels or answers or searching for more questions or just out of habit at this point. I’ve lived and loved, been lost and lamented, grew and became guarded, then stopped. I’ve seen who I am and know the ‘why’s don’t matter’ it’s just the ‘how things are’, call it my own personal Tao.
So cheers
P.s: The understanding is mutual; that it will be I that initiates our discussions. But I must say a woman that is strong enough to make up her own mind and take action is not only interesting but a person of significant distinction.

Favorite sayings:
"My Karma ran over your Dogma"

“If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid seeing yourself in the mirror, because I bet that's what REALLY throws you into a panic.”

“Well, you're either lovers or you're wanting to be lovers or you're trying not to be lovers so you can be friends, but any way you look at it, sex is always looming in the picture like a shadow, like an undertow. “

“I wish I would have a real tragic love affair and get so bummed out that I'd just quit my job and become a bum for a few years, because I was thinking about doing that anyway.”

“If you ever reach total enlightenment while you're drinking a beer, I bet it makes beer shoot out your nose.”

“I can remember when the air was clean and sex was dirty.”

“As the light changed from red to green to yellow and back to red again, I sat there thinking about life. Was it nothing more than a bunch of honking and yelling? Sometimes it seemed that way.”

“Sex should be wild. Unfettered and free. We're animals, aren't we? And, basically, we're all wolves in sheep's fur. I always wanted more. Not frequency, I am not talking about frequency; although that would have been great, too. I wanted more intensity. I wanted to be out there, outside myself, outside my skin. I wanted sex to be like robbing life out of the jaws of death!”

“Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.”

P.s. I don't like taking pictures of myself so I only have the ones you see. And if you’re the type to lump all men into the category of a**holes but your still ‘hoping some guy will change your mind’. I’m not that guy; I’m just a nice guy (not a miracle worker).

Show up with the triple Cs; curious, cautious and courageous.
An evening of aperitifs and/or appetizers followed by a walk over a beach or a boardwalk is always the best, but that is because of the talk and not the walk.
