Seek Fit Masculine Non-Scene FWB
Seek Fit Masculine Non-Scene Friend/Activity Companion -
I'd like to find a fit, single, financially independent, Caucasian, Latin or Middle Eastern masculine everyday guy between 30 and 55 years of age for activity sharing and an ongoing friend with benefits type of friendship. Someone to hang out with semi-regularly. A good friend...with benefits. Someone who shares my passion for sports, camping/RVing, ocean cruises and more. Nothing too serious or intense, though. Just someone who shares a similar desire for occasional companionship, casual activities and quality relaxing good times together both inside and outside the bedroom. Open to more later if we really connect. And open to someone who lives outside my local area...within a reasonable distance.

In my free time I like watching sports (huge NFL fan), camping, RVing, home projects, playing pickleball, cooking, cruises, weekend trips, day drives, movie nights and quiet times and good conversation sharing a few beers or a bottle of wine with a handsome, masculine man.
Seeking single, fit masculine only please. Sorry, but not typically drawn to married/partnered, bottoms or big guys.
Please note that I am not interested in quick sex hookups, massage guys or those looking for generous men or someone to support them.

It's never been about looks for me; it's about kink compatibility.
As long as one of us (preferably me) is tied up, well gagged, totally helpless, and completely dependent, I’ll be happy. Rope, cuffs, tape, or restraints are all fine as long as you can’t get free. I prefer bandanna gags but also use hoods, gas masks, and other implements to keep the bottom’s speech muffled and unintelligible. I don’t believe bondage has to be pretty to be functional.
I like to get into the head of my partner to find out what turns him on. Longer scenes are a plus when I top. Sex is usually not a part of the scene for me; it's the mental fuck which I much prefer. Clothing, especially jeans (501s), leather (including my unique fetish for wallets),boots, and gloves are a big turn on. Enforced chastity (under clothing) in public also works for me.
It's all about being in control or being controlled. . . .
GAGS, tight black leather, bondage, gloves, mustaches/goatees, tight 501s, robbery scenes, kidnapping fantasies, leather wallets, breath control (giving only), bikers, cowboys, men in suits, real men, gear, chastity. I love wearing the other guy's clothing/gear down to the details even if it doesn't fit.
Other interests: Photography, swing dancing, cooking, calligraphy, shorthand systems.

Thinking hard over life itself, getting to be a long one now of living in the wildlands without a
whole lot of gay male companionship. I'm deeply integrated into this remote rural community of ranchers and artists and retired professors who (mostly) don't care if I'm gay but take the attitude "He may be a queer cowboy, but he's OUR queer cowboy." I'm granted housing on this outfit in my retirement and put lots of time into the garden here that has maybe the most beautiful view of any in all the Southwest & I sure love to share it. I can grow about anything, from beef to orchids.
A few songs by Dave Stamey mean a whole lot to me, at this stage of my life on this range: "The Circle" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6VtbnweZJU ) and "A Song for Jake" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ou03RSyVkso ) and it still not being long since my last breakup, "Mountains of the Heart" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3QXqQM_ypw )
and--songs that apply to two men trying to stay together, one of 'em a working cowboy, and how it falls apart and why ...
"She left me this morning, went her own way/now and I'm sittin' here thinkin' in the heat of the day/an old played out land/and an old run down shack/I couldn't blame her if she never looked back ... Guess I can't be a cowboy/and keep a good wife ..."
Dust on the Barbed Wire ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1RCwyDtARk )
"Never fall in love with the tall men who ride/they are married to the seasons/and the cattle are their pride ..."

I am in love with nature, and life...I love to laugh and find joy in simple things. Family, friends
and the outdoors. You won't have to make me happy I already am, I just want to share the journey with someone else. My perfect match would be someone who loves the western style of living and is a little more aggressive than me, ok so I would love the husband type. I would love to sit and share the fire be it in the fireplace or a campfire under the stars. I would love to have horses and critters, and always be close to the mountains. I just feel lost without them... I believe in love and I believe in forever!!! Even though I have never found it I still believe it awaits under them stars out there. I would love a committed relationship; I dream about saying them special words to someone. My friends all say I would make a wonderful catch and I hope they are right, I just know I have a lot of love to give that one special man... I would love to two step the night away be it on the dance floor, around the barn or simply in the heart, or to share the back of the truck and watch the stars or just see them in the eyes of another. Sit quietly beside a small lake and listen to your journeys of yesterday and share mine. I am shy, but warm up quickly, and I dream of that feeling of being safe and warm in the arms of the one I come to love. You would never have to guess if you were loved, you would know without a doubt. The perfect match would never have to change anything but share his heart and accept me as I am. Share his dreams and together help ours grow.

10.
I am a hairy chested man. I like men with facial hair, mustaches, goatee, beards or just a stubble.
Open honest communication, be best friends, and kiss a man like a man that makes you want more.
A man that takes the time to know me and will allow me to be just me, we will accept faults or bad habits. A sense of humor that works for me, and quiet time when needed will be respected. Really knows when I say that small town America is real and that we do wave, and we do say Howdy to strangers. Wants: family, friends and God to be part of their life. Be real, wants are less, not here to impress, things are just things, share the good together without dollar signs, enjoy flea market finds. A laid back homebody, that can just share a cold one/Ice tea, in an old chair on a porch/under a shady tree after a day shared on a project, and yes, all sweaty and dirty.
Auto wish list, a mid 1950's Ford truck restored.
Hope to talk to a man that will take a chance, most likely to meet someone not local, realize age is just a number, and make our passion bucket list a reality. Farmers/Ranchers/self employed, its all a given, not moving, so I will relocate if my heart says I need to start a new chapter in life, maybe downsizing with age is a good thing to share those years to come.
BTW, close trimmed beard, stache growing. Irish, German and Cherokee Indian with hazel eyes. All be safe and be well.
Thanks for reading my book...lol

I am a gay man 55, rural guy who ranches for a living, looking for a man to join me. Thinking about
the possibility of a small gay commune here on the ranch for gay men that are not into the urban life, but still like the company of other gay men. Let me know your thoughts.

Very down to earth here and a bit old fashioned when it comes to dating and relationships.
Very much enjoy living in the country. Lived on a horse farm for some years and enjoy horseback riding. Not at all into the 'gay scene', which means I don't go to the bars. Seldom drink, don't smoke but do occasionally enjoy a little 420. I enjoy old fashioned holidays. I DO NOT respond to faceless profiles.

Mature man looking for same to develop a good, genuine friendship and trusted confidant around my own age. My ultimate desire is to establish a long term relationship, hopefully the friendship would develop into it, if we decide to go there. Looking for someone who can communicate openly and honestly. If we become intimate during that development that's fine too. Ready and willing to take a chance on developing a friendship first and see what develops from there.

I enjoy roller coasters, bowling, skating, zip lining, line dancing, ATVing, fishing and being in the country. I use to own and train horses now I am into raising and breeding dogs. Like to find someone that wants something real. I recently got out of a Ten year relationship with my last partner. Ready to start over and build something again. Prefer the company of younger guy, especially country or laid back. Someone that feels comfortable in a pair of boots and jeans. Also doesn't mind getting his hands dirty and jumping in to help finish a project around the home, inside or out. Must be okay with large dogs, they are a big part of my life currently. I tend to be drawn to a slim to average build country boy look. Someone that can be affectionate, likes to cuddle and watch TV some nights. Other nights maybe just sit by a creek and talk all night. Besides being affectionate, a bit playful or a kinky side isn't a bad thing, but not a must.
