Is it harder to approach a stranger and say hello than it is to write a profile? No. If we were in the same room right now I'd have said hello and hoped you'd smile back.
How do I get the same response now? "Hello, how are you, I'm David"
"I'm new here and I hope to meet somebody with opinions, interests, the ability to smile and the power to make herself understood"
Somebody who has grown up enough to know when to be coy and when to play.
"Are you her? - mind if we talk?"
I'm older than a some of the men here, younger in thought than many and eager to learn as much about you as possible.
I love politics - local and international - adore good writing and beautifully structured music. Walks on the beach? If we really must but that's weak in a profile.
Talking of old times if it helps the conversation but talking of today is better.
Dreaming of tomorrow and the future in every way - no 'World Peace' (yes I do want it but it's a cliche).
I'm a small 'l' liberal, I believe passionately in socialism (as it's practised in enlightened countries - not as a pejorative in the way so many in the US misunderstand it.
I believe in social justice and try to make every day donation day from me.
"Mind if we talk?"
