40 [M4F] You have so much, but you deserve more

NSFW

I'm looking for a connection with someone who shares a few things in common with me. We have, frankly, pretty good lives. We have successful careers, kids, and friends. Most would say our marriages are pretty great. But there's a part of you that feels unfulfilled. You know that feeling is real and valid. You are confident about exploring here to find that fulfillment. To be clear, you are supplementing an otherwise fulfilling life because you deserve that happiness. You have no interest in harming or losing what you do have over this, but you aren't timid either.

I'm back on Reddit after a break, but am not new here. I have had a variety of experiences connecting with people, but am posting for the first time ever. At risk of poor communication (which is so, so critical to success here), I think its a little premature or contrived to say I'm here for something long term, to meet in person, etc. I've had that in the past and it was incredible. But I think it has to happen through organic growth and deepening connection. I'd prefer to start out with a casual conversation. We will both know if we have chemistry, that exciting feeling is unmistakable. I am absolutely open to more with the right person. But please don't be dead set on that from the outset. That said, I'm a shameless flirt if I like you.

Me: I have many, eclectic interests. I am educated, well-traveled, and have a good professional career. We can talk about niche bands and cultural topics as easily as outdoor activities that most would consider extreme. I get excited about chatting and will ask lots of questions. I enjoy sharing stories and intelligent banter. Dark humor is appreciated. I lean left, but tolerate centrists (do you even exist anymore?). I won't get along with MAGA. I am fit and handsome. As shallow as it sounds, that matters to me for attraction, so please be fit and attractive too.

I look forward to meeting you! Tell me why you hate the question, "what's your favorite band?" and where you are excited to travel next.
