I've reached the stage in my life where I know my own wants and am looking for others in the same situation - that is, a bit of regular no-strings-attached companionship with someone who also knows what they want and is not shy about asking for it.

I'm not an Adonis but am good-looking, well-educated, reasonably fit (if a little rounded), healthy and generally quiet and reserved, but with a sense of humour that gets me into trouble sometimes. I like food, drink (in moderation), music, reading and good conversation.

I'm looking for someone who wants a little more out of life. Someone not afraid to explore just a little beyond the conventional. Someone discreet, trustworthy and non-judgmental. Someone who understands that a casual friendship that involves sex is not a relationship.
