Single white man, mature (silver hair with some streaks of brown still in there). DC Metro area. Working from home, I can get isolated. What I am seeking, and offering, I think is just friendship, but which could lead to more -- maybe romance, maybe a full blown relationship. Friendship: Conversations over time, dinner, walks, some phone and texting. It would be very nice if the friendship could include some measure of human contact. That means back rubs or shoulder rubs, hugging, maybe curling up next to each other on a couch while desperately searching for *something* *intelligent* on streaming media. It would be nice to be comfortable sharing a hot tub together in our bathing suits. (I don't have hot tub, but either you do or we can find a suitable health club.) I don't know of any law that says "Platonic" must equal unconditionally zero physical contact. Of course, no need to rush into even limited touching. Take it slow. First talk by phone, then video. Then meet publicly for dinner or walks. Meeting in my home or your home is a way down the road, and I'm prepared to share blood test results if you are. I am a working professional, more of a bookworm than a partier. I am ethnically Jewish, but not religious at all. As for the something more... vanilla, and I have a few safe but interesting kinks that could be fun to play out together. But let's get slowly acquainted, and then we can explore that if the mutual desire is there. I indicate here an interest in couples. I am mainly seeking for a woman friend (possibly more than friend). And I am strictly heterosexual. But I am open to and interested in the possibilities for forming a friendship with a male/female couple or female/female couple. That would likely be Platonic, but again I wouldn't rule out some role, some kink, and just possibly something polyamorous.

My Ideal Person I am seeking a woman in the late thirties to mid-fifties age ranges. You don't have to be thin, but I prefer a physically healthy look. It would be nice, whether as friends or lovers, to be mutual coaches, good playmates. You like to laugh, like to make others laugh. I tend to be a homebody, but actually am attracted to active women, including grown-up tomboys. As for career, I'm very open -- you could be an engineer, artist, architect, attorney, teacher, business woman. I will say, special bonus points for artists. You are confident and direct, but still have a gentle side. You would describe yourself as a caring woman.

You can be religious -- any religion -- but most likely G-d is not really at the center of your life. Likewise, you can lean left, right, or middle, but you are probably not too fired about about politics.
