Do NOT message if you are under 50. Mature, soft spoken man. I'm the guy with the necktie. I am very clean, articulent, and thoughtful. My cooking is pretty good, although some might think it is a bit basic. I am retired but remain busy with several hobbies. I travel, mostly by car and RV. The desired match would be a woman over age 55. I appreciate a well dressed and fashionable woman. I have developed a strong interest is women of color. The idea of being with a Black, Hispanic, or Eastern woman has become appealing. I simply will not date a woman that smokes. If you are a light drinker, great. Tattoos are garish. I am willing to move a bit slowly in order to develop a meaningful, mutually pleasing relationship. Please understand: I desire a slender to a few extra pounds, healthy woman.
