41 [M4F] North West County-Nerdy WHF dad seeking companionship.

I’ll preface by reiterating that I’m a married white male, not single, in northwest STL county. For many reasons, it’s how things are and will remain. Not looking to upend my situation or anyone else’s.

That being said, I work from home, so no coworkers to banter with. Friends my age who’ve remained in the area are all childless, and have free time evenings and weekends, which is the opposite of myself.

I have a special needs younger child who takes up my time and attention when not at school. I love them, but they are a lot of work. Haven’t come across a lot of people who know what it’s like. Both of us are pretty burnt out with it. Mom will come home from work, help me co-parent for a few hours until bedtime, and then go off and do her separate veg out activity until bedtime. Weekends are pretty exhausting trying to keep the kid occupied/entertained. We have sex 1-2x a month, and it’s essentially “duty.” It’s pretty much the difference between having sex because you want to, and doing it because you feel that you need to, if that makes sense. It’s a pretty boring rut.

So, that leaves me weekdays, roughly 8a-2p, to figure out what to do with myself. I’ve been working from home for about 13 years now, and with the lack of being social at home with my spouse, I just feel lonely, and bored.

Ideally I’d like to make new friends with a woman in a similar situation-bored, lonely, needs more than they’re getting in their relationship, but not wanting to/cannot leave for their own reasons. Also perhaps a couple-be friends with the guy/both partners, have fun with the wife together. Had a relationship with a couple in my 20s and recall it fondly. I am NOT looking for a solo male physical encounter.

If not physical, I'm also looking for a platonic/activities partner. My current main entertainment is the Dungeon Crawler Carl book series. I’d love to be able to nerd out with someone also into it. I also enjoy cheap Tuesday movies, Wednesday Dave and Busters, some pc gaming, swimming, other exercise (could always use more), reading other works, etc.

Thank you for reading and hope to hear from you soon!
