How am I supposed to go about conveying to others what I am searching for when I can scarcely understand it myself?

Imagine if I were to draw it all out in a pie chart, or a word cloud, or perhaps one of those MS Office smartart diagrams we all use in boring PowerPoint presentations at work.

One part of the diagram would be loneliness, because I concede that I suffer from a lack of emotional and physical intimacy in life.

Another part would be devoted to curiosity, because I am insatiably interested in what lurks in the dark corners of other people's minds. Open mindedness is a huge plus.

Yet another portion would perhaps focus on friendship, because I feel like the best online dialogues are ones where you get to know the person on a complete level, and you are able to have conversations about any topic under the sun, be they sexual or not.

Orbiting around these big ideas, with arrows pointing in all directions would be other adjectives that i think are important: kindness, compassion, eroticism, tenderness, stability, outdoorsyness, introspection, maturity.

How this puzzle fits together exactly, I do not know. But if the pieces I'm laying down feel like they are also missing from your puzzle, then I hope you take a chance and write to me. I'm 41, thin, active, professional, educated, and desperately seeking a new connection.

I think it would be easy to make the case for loneliness, especially in these strange days we find ourselves in. And of course, many of us are given to spend more time focusing on our curiosities. For ky part, there are many curiosities. Especially since there is plenty of time to explore the untold secrets brought out in Literotica.

The friendship part is probably the most difficult part of the equation. Not that it is hard to forge friendships with like minded peiole, but more difficult to form the type of friendship in which you can open up anf share those naughty private thoughts we scarcely admit to ourselves.

I certainly understand your frustration Winter.

Experience tells me to agree with your second paragraph, handyman! But on second thought, I see opening up as a pure act of will. If one wants to, and maye even needs to, one will do it. And if the partner one meets is of a like mind, she will do so also.

does that sounds like something you agree with? The problem seems to lie more in finding a partner with a mind that ticks like oneself, correct?

Though it never comforts me much, perhaps it is some comfort to you to know there are many people of this same mindset. That nagging knowing in your mind, body and soul that something is missing. That though you tried hard to find satisfaction in what you have, something is missing and it becomes so apparent that you have to seek out something/someone to fill that void.

I find on here though, it is often said that someone wants the conversation from all aspects of life - to get to really know you- but it ends up being purely sexual. Which, I mean, come on, this is an erotica website, no big surprise.

I hope you find what you are looking for, it is always nice when that missing puzzle piece slides in perfectly and for a time, you are getting everything you need to feel fulfilled in all aspects of life.
