Malcontent and nonconformist. I am very introverted but you wouldn't know it in my professional life. Older but maybe not wiser. I can talk to dogs. A cancer survivor who is struggling to re-find himself.
So Why am I here? I like sex and I like to read. I may be your friend but don't expect that we will ever meet. I am not here to hit on women (nor men). I may flirt but that is as far as it will go.
My wife knows of lush and is also here. She lurks around invisibly but she is real and keeps me interested.
I have pop-ups blocked so I don't see and hence can't respond to chat requests.
Interests I read, fish, build furniture, write and perform original music.

Across the bed the two bodies sprawled, each covered with a glow of sweet sweat. His leg was atop hers while her hand softly stroked his cheek. The sunlight came through the window; blinds casting contour shadows across the curves of their bodies. Bedding...
