40M Looking for a spark of life again

Age 40-49

Lately I’ve realized I’m missing that little spark that comes from getting to know someone completely outside your normal circle.

I have family, friends, coworkers, and all the usual people in my life, but sometimes it’s refreshing to talk with someone who has absolutely nothing to do with any of it. Someone new, with different stories, interests, opinions, and experiences.
I’m 40 and mostly just looking for a good conversation and a genuine connection with another adult. Tell me what you’re excited about lately, what you’re working toward, the weird rabbit hole you’ve fallen into, what you’re currently reading or watching, or something you wish you had someone to talk about.

I’m pretty open-minded and enjoy conversations that can bounce between completely ridiculous and surprisingly meaningful.

No expectations about where a conversation needs to go. If we talk for an evening and brighten each other’s day, great. If we click and become regular chat buddies, even better.

If any of that sounds good, send me a message and tell me something about yourself that I’d never guess from your username.
