While I'm happily married, my wife and I sleep in separate bedrooms and I'm exploring ways to connect with like-minded people for intimate chatting and a possible cyber relationship. I am especially interested in people who are into fantasy and romance and enjoy sharing their own ideas either interactively or through separate messages. The time I can spend here is limited due to privacy issues, but I am open to considering alternative ways to chat.

My professional background is in counseling and I love hearing about people's lives. As a result, I tend to ask a lot of questions about whoever I'm talking to. I have a passion for understanding human behavior and why people make their life/work choices. Since leaving my work in higher education, I sorely miss problem-solving with my students. As a highly perceptive empath, I thrive on helping untangle the puzzle of life/work decision-making.

A fledgling writer, it's my hope to be able to craft my own stories with time. I hope to be inspired by the people I talk with and the stories I read to do that.
