Hoping this gets the attention of the thinking, feeling women out there.

Late-forties, very young-looking separated man looking for women who love to read, learn and talk. I'm out of my marriage (for good - have a really nice apartment in a small suburban town, though not offically divorced) and I want to find someone really smart who loves to laugh and doesn't take life too seriously.

My ideal match would be a woman who listens to NPR, votes Democratic, might have tattoos but definitely listens to music from this century, is a feminist without apology, loves passionately, is sarcastic, attractive in a non-conventional way and can kill hours in a bookstore.

What you'll get is a guy who listens to what you say, thinks, reads (everything), loves music, independent movies, works out every day (still a few pounds up from the ideal), and will commit to you without reservation. I want to share ideas and books and movie recommendations. I have a good job, write for publication, and have all my own hair.

Just looking for that girl I can't wait to be with. Want her to tell me about her day, her dreams, her life, so I can tell her how cool she is. I'm not a perfect physical specimen and you don't have to be either.

Thanks. Send your pic and I'll send mine.
