Male, 48, totally genuine, Leeds area looking for quirky female. Not a timewaster or a scammer.

I am in the Leeds area and am not a time waster. I'm very good natured, have a sense of humour, am,communicative and not at all the weirdo, silent stalker/ nutter type. I'm happy to meet up for a coffee ( which might in itself be a challenge under the current lock down circumstances) and if we get on, then great, and if we don't, then we just shake hands and move on. At a time when interaction has been minimised, it's actually quite a pleasure just to chat face to face with different people and get a brief glimpse into their world.

I'm rather private and not willing to upload a photo . I refuse to window myself like meat in a butcher's shop. I'm not Paul Newman and won't be on the cover of men's Vogue anytime soon, but young children don't run screaming from me in the street either. Caucasian, Yorkshire born and bred, average height, build, fairly tidy appearance etc. I don't have any tattoos or piercings.

However, I think that it's very important not to lead anybody up the garden path and I don't want to meet on false pretences. I have never been married, have no children and the idea of a conventional, let's all play happy families, relationship is antithetical to me. I think that I would rather swallow a live toad than spend my Sunday afternoons doing the family shopping in Asda and the evenings snuggling up on the sofa watching television soaps. A few of the slightly lengthier adverts mention candlelit dinners, watching the sun set together on tropical beaches and other romantic cliches. I'm not in any way denigrating these activities, but they're not for me. I don't want to grow up and I don't want to ever slow, or settle, down.

To hell with banality; I want excitement. Not quite the harsh casual sex in Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting, but hopefully heading heavily in that direction ( which is actually a bit of an odd thing to say, given that I don't take drugs and hardly ever drink). If you're very conventional and cosy, then you're not what I'm looking for. If you're wildly different, then drop me a line and we'll meet. The more unusual, the better. You can be any age, from a young student to 60s, but must have a lot of personality and vivacity. I'm not at all judgemental, either on social or economic grounds. You can be very wealthy and it doesn't mean a thing to me, or impress me in the slightest. Conversely, you can be a waitress at McDonalds and it doesn't lower you at all in my eyes. I'll make the somewhat outrageous statement that, while I don't have one myself, somebody with a serious criminal record would be a bonus. Maybe I'm carried away by some kind of romanticised, stylised Bonnie and Clyde, dust bowl Oklahoma in a Model T Ford notion there.....it might not be quite as glamorous in 2021 Covid paranoid West Yorkshire.. If you're married and wanting a discreet affair, that's completely fine as well. I like the unusual mixture of racy and the gentile. Sex with a stranger, followed by cucumber sandwiches, sort of thing.

A formal relationship is not wanted, but that certainly doesn't mean that civilised conversation is out. Very far from it. I'm very much a reader and will discuss Victorian sensation novels and literature in general until about 1960 until the cows come home. You might even get me on the odd day out ( in these ever come back....), to the British Museum or spotting Georgian architecture somewhere or other. I haven't been to Wentworth Woodhouse yet. The objective is the thrill of meeting up for sex during the stultifying boredom of lockdown 3, but not in one night stand format. Ideally, it can be perhaps an ongoing one night a week thing, or whatever suits, but I don't want it to be a relationship in a full on, all encompassing sense and it seems wrong to not make that point clear from the outset. No strings sex on a regular basis, with a chat about the effective use of Greek and Roman columns in classical architecture would be the ideal. I don't need contact with somebody on a daily, or even weekly, basis. Just whenever they feel like meeting up. Unusual knowledge is attractive to me: 18th century highwaymen ? The rise of the East India Company ? Symbolism used in Victorian cemeteries ?

I am aware that the above is a bit oddball and quirky, but hopefully, it should elicit a response from somebody of a similar mind. I'm a real person who will actually turn up and surely it's better than “Guy wants sex with u tonight” ? While Leeds is local to me, I may try to post the advert in a couple of different areas. I can easily meet anywhere in West Yorkshire ( Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield etc), but driving further afield might be a bit dodgy while the present restrictions are in place. I normally travel to London every week in connection with my work, but this is not something I'm doing during the lock down.

I look forward to hearing from you. If anyone is interested, I'm quite willing to give out my phone number and you can call me for a chat.
