48 [M4F] - #SFBay area - #SanJose, CA - A Real Connection?

48, not unhandsome - 6ft tall, active, glasses, buzz-cut brown hair - kind eyes that crinkle when I smile...

Not without resources - and if a simple quick roll in the hay that meant nothing were all I were after - it'd be easy to come by.

But ... I want more than that. I want to meet someone who makes my soul smile - and I hers. I want to meet someone who can appreciate every nerdy aspect of what it means to be alive - as happy collaborating over a crossword puzzle in a cute little cafe as spending a lazy weekday relaxing in a hotel room - ordering in, sharing a bottle of wine, lighting incense, kneading out those pesky knots with warm massage oil and strong hands...

Someone who's thought deeply about attraction, what she's looking for not just on a physical level - but emotional and intellectual too. Someone who understands the deep pleasure in a lover who relishes her mind as much as her body. Someone whose desire is stoked as much by words and touch as sight alone. Someone who can get lost in a story - novel, on-screen or stage - who finds joy in sci-fi or detective series...

If you've read this far - tell me a few of your favorite on-screen pairings - licit or illicit - and why they tickle your fancy so much...
