I'm 36 M, gay, looking for a boyfriend who is younger, kind, somewhere in the USA. Long distance to start, open to closing the distance when it's right. I'm 6'2", single, heavy (around 295), belly, moderately hairy, bearded.

I'm not fully out in my world, and I need to keep this discreet, certainly at first. I have a real life, with family, history, obligations I can't and won't just walk away from. I assume you do too. I'm not offering a whirlwind. I'm offering to take two already-full lives and still build a real, direct commitment to each other at the center of them—and to keep choosing that on the hard days, not just the easy ones. People I love say I make them feel calm, like they have something solid to rely on.

I want someone to face the world together back-to-back, but also someone who understands that the world doesn't matter much at all, and that the relationship is the real thing. I want both. I want a deep friendship and real romantic and physical desire in the same person. I don't think you have to choose between them. And to be clear, the physical side matters to me. I have plenty of desire and energy; not looking for some abstract meeting of minds.

My hobbies are reading, writing, photography, travel, and a little cooking. Massive music-listening nerd. Internet denizen since ten years old (many years ago). I believe in God—not always well, not always on good terms, but I do. I don't need you to be devout or even especially spiritual. But someone completely closed off to that side of life won't be a fit.

About you: kind above all, easy to talk to, funny, able to be both light and genuinely joyful and also serious. I’m not particular about build, but tend to find the energy of younger men attractive. You are likely an “old soul” or mature beyond your years. Complicated is welcome; my life is complicated too. You'll be corny, cringe, a little ridiculous, and you'll apologize for it, and I'll tell you not to, because I'm exactly the same. We can be ridiculous together.

I want to take care of someone. I want to make you as happy as you make me. I want to be needed and wanted, and to need and want you back. Most of all, I want to be chosen the way I intend to choose you. I want to be picked on purpose, even when someone knows my many flaws, and picked anyway.
