Looking for: man. In age: 39-49
I'm on here because I just got out of a long relationship. I'm not yet entirely sold on the idea of online dating, but I'm not heavily into the bar scene, and most everyone I know is married. I am ready to meet someone more suitable for me. I work downtown and have very long days, with the commute and everything, but my weekends are mostly free. I also teach a painting class a few times a month. I also enjoy concerts, going to the movies, playing the piano, traveling to warm places (I love Vegas!), and finding interesting restaurants.My ideal match:-You're athletic (but I don't want to see pics of you flexing in the mirror at the gym. Nobody does)-You're tall / tallish / taller than me (I'm 5'9")-You're protective-You're brave (You stick up for me, but you don't start bar fights)-You're intelligent, well-read, you use proper grammar and punctuation-You're open-minded (especially when I bring out my ouija board. Ha.)-You're not clingy (but you're not a "player" either. I don't like serial daters)-You're nice to the wait staff at restaurants-You're nice to your parents (but you're not a "Momma's Boy")-You're a good father (if you have kids)-You're not obsessed with your phone (please don't constantly text in front of me)-You're a social drinker (NOT an alcoholic)-You have no other bad addictions, like drugs or gambling (although - see above - I do like Vegas)-You're strong-You're completely masculine (no feminine traits please. I don't want someone that follows me to the nail salon) -You're understanding, compassionate and kind (you would give money to a legitimate homeless person)--You're confident (not arrogant. Your friends aren't arrogant either)-You agree that there must be physical attraction, but that only gets you so far (it really is "what's inside" that counts in the long run)--You like animals (I have one cat, and you better be nice to him. I will be observing your interactions with him, and taking notes)-You're not in love with someone else (like your ex, or perhaps a co-worker or neighbor or other female (or male) acquaintance) -You're employed (You have a grown-up job, and you don't live with your parents)-You're optimistic (I need it, especially when I tend to go the opposite way)-You're passionate (not perverted)-You have my back at all times (because I will ALWAYS have yours)You'll get Extra Credit for the following:-You're like 50 years old-You love white Christmas trees-You live in the Chicagoland area-You're mechanical (I'm terrified of being stranded on the side of the road. My dad won't be around forever)-You're a good cook (because I'm terrible at it)-You're a movie and / or music buff (I love the 80's and 90's)-You're not overly religious-You let me read your palm-You're organized (I love those people with neat closets and drawers)-You don't have a crazy ex, or any kind of stalkers (you'd be surprised at the things I've experienced. I'm lucky to be alive)-You eat relatively healthy-You're creative-You're entertaining-You would run any miscellaneous errands with me, late at night, because I don't want to go out by myself in the dark-You'd sit still and let me sketch your portrait-You're interesting-You're sexy-You're rareSerious inquiries only

I just want a sane person who takes care of himself, can carry a conversation, knows his place in the world and has established himself firmly enough professionally to now have time for a personal life, too. l prefer the good guys, not into "bad boys". And frankly, at our age l find it ridiculous. I prefer the guy who had no date to the prom, but look at him now!l am not into tattoos and piercings. No drunkards. No muscle-heads, no pitbull owners, no living with mom. If you wear undershirts anywhere other than UNDER your shirt, NO! More on the "muscle-head" thing; I am not impressed with how much you work out, or how many triathlons you've completed. I am more impressed by a guy who stays late and works hard on his career, *** on his abs. In fact, I kind of like a little "grab" on a man. l'm starting to wonder if half the people on here misunderstood the purpose and think this is a fishing competition ... why else would you all be posing with FISH? : )Can somebody explain to me why taking pictures in a wax museum is so popular? You're merely standing next to a huge pile of sticky yellowish moldable substance.If you are the type of guy, who at any point in our relationship would want to send me an "edible fruit arrangement" please contact the girl after me ***, if you mentioned sex under "Interests" Ew! Are we 15? I once heard a guy say he likes to see his dates "dressed to kill" on a date. Shouldn't that be the oldest, cheapest, grungiest clothes she owns, that she is not afraid to dump in the river once the deed is done? “It’s the best when the ordinary is extraordinary, I think. There’s this Italian renaissance way of being romantic: they call it ‘sprezzatura’. It is where you try to be as romantic as possible - but through your ordinary life. There’s so much more magic in the ordinary. Life isn’t all fireworks. Romantic things come from inside you.” Depends on the season, time of day and mostly what the two of us have in common. I'm not interested in running off to meet a whole bunch of people for "coffee". I will take my time in selecting whom I want to meet in person. I'm willing to admit one weird thing; I prefer a restaurant with booths. It's just a thing I have.

I enjoy traveling, dinning, music, dancing, reading, writing constructively, reading people, and definitely conversations that are of depth. I’d like to find someone who can tune in to my language and understand me.
