When you ask for what you want, you may just get it.

I'm a little late on updating, but I met a man from Connecticut who travels here often. We've gone out a few times and we get along really well. He is a total and complete gentleman, retired early, with a great sense of humor and a very kind nature. He has lots of free time, loves to travel and gives a great deal back to the community.

He seems almost too good to be true. We've been on 6 dates, had wonderful dinners (and a lunch or two) and spent hours talking in person and on the phone. I've been to his hotel room, more than once, shared a few glasses of wine over great conversation. He has yet to put the moves on me. We have kissed briefly, but that's it.

I'm not complaining. I LOVE it! I'm not easy, but I don't have x amount of dates rules either. Still, I have never been in a situation, after even 3 dates, where a man hasn't at least tried. He clearly has the desire by kissing me (and the way he kisses me), but he keeps his hands to himself. It's usually when we end the date.

So, while I respect him for it, I'm shaking my head. I'm not immune to the shallow thinking of most these days, especially on that site. Most men would have moved on by now; his tastes are quite upscale. And I'd venture to say he can have just about any woman he wants, in multiple positions, after ONE date.

Again, I'm not complaining. I'm pleasantly surprised. Giggly actually. I really enjoy being with him.

Then again, he could be a serial killer who wants to turn me into a leather jacket, with my luck.

Hmm... you took the strokes from my fingers...

Well, he's seeking some sort of arrangement, but who is to know what kind exactly... Impotent? STD and honest (doubtful)? Married and seeking companionship? Guess the possibilities are endless.

While I'm not familiar with this site, the name of it does imply less than serious deals.

Yeah...agree with Sierra. But cool that you met someone that has tickled your fancy so much.

Now, if he's from out of town, how do you know he isn't married?

He has given me all his info along with his home number and told me to call anytime. Con artists can be pretty convincing, but we'll have to see. So far he seems legit. My conditions are pretty simple; no married men, no drugs or other harmful addictions and no pay for play scenarios. I'm looking for someone successful for the stability it offers, not for what it gets me/him. Seems he is on the same page.

Yes, he's actually listed. And I haven't found anything that sets off alarms, yet.

So very true. Just all depends on what one is willing to compromise....or sell.

Are you well-off by any chance?

Well enough for somebody to be attracted to the lifestyle...?
