If I were a flavor I'd be a strange but tasty combination of dark chocolate, cinnamon and lime...NOT vanilla! I prefer the spicy and the tangy, the dark and slightly bittersweet. I might be described as a pragmatic sensualist...a realistic optimist...loyal, happy, easygoing, spontaneous and somewhat adventurous...seeking a Dominant life partner with whom to revel along the way on the great road trip of living. The Man who would command my respect and obedience would have a passion for love and a zest for life (or vice versa), combined with a firm hand, a wicked sense of humor, a deviantly intelligent mind and a demanding body. "Play partners" are fun, but they're like a steady diet of candy and junk food; I want the steak, the the nourishment of a real partnership. I've been married twice and know that there's nothing worse than a bad marriage and nothing better than a great one. Fortunately I had the great one after the bad; unfortunately, I'm now widowed. Will I ever be lucky enough to find a great love again? I don't know, but I hope so.
My friends would tell you that I bounce back very well from chaos and that I always try to focus on the positive (sometimes to their dismay!) Though adversity has certainly been part of my history, I carry neither heavy emotional baggage nor drama, and am considered to be well-adjusted and sane (and also pretty damn perverted). My "vanilla" interests are also wide-ranging: from art, music, books and theatre to history (especially the Civil War), road trips, Penguins hockey, fine dining and roadside BBQ...among many other things. I own my own business and have a graduate degree; I'm widely read, up on current events and possess a lively imagination.
I especially appreciate a man with a goatee; people with a sense of humor, body art, bikers, men in uniform (sigh), men in kilts (regimental of course), intelligent but down-to-earth people, good conversation, a very dry gin martini with bleu-cheese-stuffed olives, Mexican, Thai and Italian food, really good 'cue, music (except for country), shoe shopping, drinking really good porter, interior design, books, film, live theater, good red wine, the open road, cats, greyhounds (the dogs, not the buses), and Pittsburgh. I like men who are taller and stronger than me, knee-buckling kisses, pain, corsets, midnight skies, porn, dirty blues and dancing. I DON'T like mossy teeth, a lack of personal hygiene, bad pizza, obnoxiously arrogant asshats, fuckwits or spineless wimps...and serving a drink in a martini glass does not mean that it's a martini.
If you are interested in a real-time LTR, please drop me a few lines and tell me about yourself. One-line emails that tell me nothing don't pique my interest; if you think you are worth a reply, then tell me why. I don't like it when a guy expects me to chase him, and that's not gonna happen. OTOH, I don't play "hard to get" either. Life is too short to play games, and I refuse to do so. I value straightforward behavior. If you're interested, say so, and if you're not, say so as well.
Age is not important if you can think, speak and act with intelligence, and all of your most important parts are in working order.
Male switches and subs, please note - while your friendships are always welcome, I do not want to become involved in a sexual/romantic relationship that casts me as the top or Domme, because I'm a sub/slave, not a switch. Thx. |
