u/8645NOW

Retired but not retiring librarian (yes, I’ve heard all the “hush” jokes). I read a lot, think a lot, and still believe curiosity is one of the better qualities in a person.

I’m politically liberal and active — volunteering, paying attention, and not pretending everything is fine when it isn’t. I volunteer at the symphony and theater, which means I like both culture, even streaming shows. I try to meditate, play guitar, practice speaking Spanish and writing.

I have a cat who rules the roost! I also like dogs and occasionally wish I had one.

I like to cook (pad Thai, tofu rice salad, and flan are a few recent dishes) and I enjoy conversation that actually goes somewhere.

I also like to stay active — walks, exercise classes, getting out and about — and would like someone who can do those things with me.

I’m looking for companionship, conversation, and affection. I am challenged by sexual intercourse, but I do want closeness and cuddling.

I’m 72 and generally looking for someone around my age (roughly 68–78), though I care more about compatibility than exact numbers.

Practical notes:

- I’m sensitive to strong fragrance, so light or none is best.

- If you’re allergic to cats, this won’t work.

Also, to be direct — if you’re conservative, MAGA, or a Trump supporter, we are not a match.

Please be respectful. I will ignore anything inappropriate.

If you’re kind, thoughtful, reasonably active, and able to have a real conversation, feel free to message me
