I'm an older guy judging from who appears on this site—perhaps "mature" rather than "old:" like a fine wine or a delicious cheese. As my user name says, I'm "a man with a slow hand, a lover with an easy touch" (check out the Pointer Sisters on You Tube and you'll catch my drift). My interests are music, history, and sports (watching more than playing these days). Don't drink and don't smoke.

I like women who are emotionally and sexually mature, usually in their thirties or older. I'm not really interested in a long term, committed relationship—been there, done that a few times. It does not matter to me if you are in a current relationship and just want some variety. Friendly exchanges and occasional hook-ups do not seem too much to ask, more if we strike a spark.

Will let you know in person ;)
