Last year I celebrated my 40th birthday and in reflection I realized that while I have many good things in my life I am missing that sexual fire that my marriage used to have. I am not looking to end my marriage but want someone who can be a new friend and lover. Someone who who can take all my sexual passion and energy and return it in kind. But I am also very much looking for make a special close friend, someone who is not just my lover! Some other things about me. I enjoy a good drink, a well made gin martini, a Guinness or a good microbrew beer. I don't have any artistic talent, but love museums and know what I like and don't like. At some point I would like to learn to play piano. I like to listen to music and see live performances, mostly Rock, Blues, Alternative & Reggae but open to new things. I love to read; current events, science, politics to Sci-Fi. I watch some TV but prefer movies. I just recently got cable and am enjoying watching movies I might never see other wise and rewatching old favorites. I especially follow presidential politics but think politics are best not discussed in bed -) I love to be outdoors. I love hiking, climbing & skiing. I don't watch much sports on TV, I prefer to do rather than watch. I love to eat and try new food. I like to cook and am a pretty good cook. I was seriously considering learning to be a chef at one point in my life. I'm spiritual but not into formal religions. They don't work for me.
