I'm 50, black, 5'9'' 170lbs, mostly a homebody and am seeking someone to not just be friends with but also to eventually become serious about.I love humor ,passion, Men always pay the check(if possible),not into religion ,don't like bars or clubs ,love parks and walking ,love to read(wayyy tooo much),love to talk about what I read, real confused about politics and still finding my own likes and beliefs, my idea of fun is making you smile and laugh,I'm someone that doesn't care about boobs being big as much as other guys(...but sensitive is another story...),I'm not a rocket scientists, but I'm not a tactless idiot that says immature things all the time.(just this once...)I won't try to shove ideas down anyone's throat, someone who's willing to listen ,who can deal with shyness a lot better than I can a really outgoing popular person. I can have a really quirky way of saying/seeing things.I like cats AND dogs.I dislike others being clingy ,yet need to be needed.Someone who needs you to tell me how you feel about things, I'm interested in your views, even if it's different than mine. Actually ,if your who I'm interested in, you'll be the most interesting person on the planet, and I'd love to know all the beautiful mystery that is youI like reading science fiction and military fiction...love watching movies (especially cuddling with a special someone)/hobbies - listen to mostly 70's and 80's music (I just don't really like the modern hip-hop /rap thing. I love beautiful music, some acoustic guitar, lyrics that have meaning and feeling.I just tend to be very passionate about the person I'm with. I don't try to change who they are or change who I am (unless it's for the betterment of me as a person, not just as a partner to fit their needs) Just trying to find someone who shares the same passion about things, and who's life will mesh with mine. I believe there's nothing wrong in feeling more alive because someone is my everything!
