46 [M4F] #Raleigh NC or East #TN - I wanna be your biggest fan and cheerleader! Top Love Langagues: Physical Touch, Words of Affirmation, & Acts of Service

Hello Ladies,
I live in East TN and travel to Raleigh NC frequently for work.  I'm willing to talk to anyone, but someone in the Raleigh area western NC, or East TN are preferred!   If you visit Pigeon Forge for vacation - that works well too!

My next trip to Raleigh is the week of August 17th.  

My goal here is simple but intentional. I want to find an amazing human being and create a space together where we both feel loved, respected, appreciated, wanted, and desired. A space where we can show up fully as ourselves with zero filters.

In our primary relationships, we hold back. We censor our thoughts, our feelings, our desires. That kind of restraint is exhausting. This is meant to be a place where everything we share is met with curiosity, not judgment, and where support and care comes easily.

If you’re still reading, here’s a little more about me.

Who I am:
I’m 46, married for 19 years, and navigating a dead bedroom situation due to a medical condition. I miss playful energy, flirting, intimacy, and being desired. I’m hoping to connect with someone who understands that longing and feels it too.

Family and Furry Friends
I’m a proud dad to an adult son. I’m also a dog dad to a 9 year old lab mix who keeps me grounded and smiling. I recently said goodbye to my 14 year old German Shepherd, which reminded me just how much animals have my whole heart. We also have a 5 year old cat who found us through the universal cat distribution system.

What I Do
I retired from the Air Force after 20 years and now work as a corporate leadership trainer and small business owner. I travel across the Southeast, but I always make time for people who matter to me.

Who I Am, Personally
I’m educated, emotionally intelligent, thoughtful, and open minded. I value kindness, empathy, and consistency. I’m a big fan of Dolly Parton and Fred Rogers and truly believe how you treat people says everything about who you are. I believe Kindness and how you treat others speaks volumes about who you are - so I DO NOT connected well with MAGA supporters.

Affection Is Key
Words of affirmation and physical touch are how I connect. I love thoughtful messages, surprise check ins, shared laughter, and closeness that feels natural and mutual.

Mental Health Matters
I manage anxiety and depression well. I believe in honesty, self awareness, and being a steady, supportive partner who shows up emotionally.

What I Bring
I invest fully in the right connection. You’ll feel wanted, appreciated, desired, and safe being yourself. I don’t do half effort or disappearing acts.

Communication Is Everything
I enjoy staying connected through texts, photos, voice notes, and the small moments throughout the day. I respect busy lives, but I value consistency and follow through.

The Physical Stuff
I’m 6’2” with a strong dad bod, salt and pepper blonde hair, big blue eyes, tattoos, and one well hidden piercing. I stay active, love good food, believe in balance over perfection, and I smile constantly.

What I’m Looking For

Similar Situation
Ideally, you’re married or attached and missing connection, affection, and spark. You’re not looking to change your life, just add something meaningful to it.

No Pressure, Just Chemistry
I’m not here to rush or force anything. I want butterflies, tension, laughter, and a connection that builds naturally over time.

Playful and Thoughtful
You’re kind, witty, flirty, and emotionally aware. You enjoy banter just as much as depth.

Emotionally Mature
You value communication, self reflection, and real connection over surface level attention.

Affection Lover
You crave closeness, attention, and being pursued. Overlapping love languages matter. Physical Touch, Words of Affirmation, and Acts of Service are my top three.

Attraction Beyond Looks
All body types and backgrounds are welcome. Confidence, warmth, and kindness are what truly draw me in.

Intimacy and Chemistry
I absolutely want a sexual element to the relationship, but I believe the best chemistry develops naturally through trust, comfort, and emotional connection. I’m very open minded and kink friendly, but I don’t rush or lead with that. Everything has its time and place, and I enjoy letting desire unfold instead of forcing it.

Bonus Points
You love animals, enjoy a few nerdy hobbies, like reading, and have a soft spot for Harry Potter, Ted Lasso, Star Wars, Marvel, or Lord of the Rings.

If any of this sounds like your cup of tea, I’d love to hear from you.

Your move.
