I Would Describe Myself As

Lakeview/Loop self-employed professional seeks mature, grounded, intelligent, witty and rational gay men as friends for interactions to take advantage of what the city has to offer. Dinners, plays, movies, concerts, highbrow arts, festivals, etc. After all, there is always something listed in The Reader that I regret not doing. And of course, I am always interested in travel outside the city - tropical beaches and salt water scuba diving are top priorities. I should be pretty clear in this post that the statement of “what I am looking for” in the 1st paragraph is the unvarnished truth. I’m not focused on finding my true love. I’m enjoying a break from long term committed relationships after 25 years in 2 of them. Truly - just looking to increase the number of people that I would enjoy hanging out with. A little background – I came out in my 40s after a 16 year straight marriage with the requisite 2 (great) children and moved to the city in 1999 and just about immediately plunged into a roughly 10 year gay relationship that turned out to be socially limiting. That - along with tendencies toward introversion and a general lack of diligence in making the effort – combined to produce a more limited degree of social interaction outside of the relationship than I desired. I tend to form strong one-on-one relationships with a few good friends. Some of those have moved. And of course, some of those have different interests so we don’t try to do everything together. Consequently, I’ve reached a time where I’m willing to “put myself out there” a little bit more. I “got no game.” I work to be forthright direct and clear in my communications. For the most part, I also tend to treat other people to a “judgment free zone.” If any of this fits with what you might be open to giving a try, let me hear from you.
