Please note: I am not actively searching for or with anyone at the moment. RL has been difficult to process in the last year and a half. That said, I'm not adverse to intelligent conversation and friendship.

Who am I?
A Masters candidate. Correction, I've graduated.
An avid swimmer.
A traveler. Wanderer? "for a wind's in the heart of me, a fire's in my heels."
A thinker. Mental play is at least as important as physical, if not moreso.
NPA.
A SF/F fan. The Sanctuary is probably my new favorite.
An author. Published, even...poetry. (Granted, I've not written much of anything lately.)
And this list could keep going, so I'll stop now.

What I'm looking for:
Conversation
Intelligence
Confidence, without arrogance
Proper, standard English communication. (If "c u l8r" is in your standard repertoire, please don't bother.)
Ageplay-friendly

Looking...but NOT for these:
Someone over 40.
(Yes, age is just a number, but there are such things as significant numbers.)
Someone without a job
(I don't plan on supporting anyone, except children, perhaps. If you don't have a job, but can support yourself, fine.)
Someone who still lives at home
Someone who smokes
(Eck...it's a horrid unhealthy habit.)
Someone with a superiority complex
(I am submissive, but I'm not inferior.)
Someone who is married
(Whether you have an "open" marriage or not, it's not within me.)
Someone who is rude.
(I'm with Hannibal Lecter on this one, except, perhaps, without the fava beans.)

The exception to the above would be as friends only--except the smoking/rude bit.

I've been told that what I'm looking for is impossible and doesn't exist.

Perhaps they're right, but "that which we are, we are...to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
