I've had lovely platonic friendships with women all my life; it would be awesome to make some more. Happy to be friends with men too, but I find women tend to be more comfortable with emotions and things.Some things I enjoy are: bush walking, nature photography, board games, collecting sea shells, science fiction and fantasy movies, 80s music.I am a Christian, but not preachy, and I accept people for who they are. In the process of writing a book about God's love.A couple of years ago I discovered "platonic cuddling", which is a lovely innocent thing (and completely non s----l). Touch can be very comforting and healing. It's awesome having a way to give and receive affection without any other overtones. I am a very respectful person though, so cuddling is optional! Boundaries are always a good thing.
I have a good sense of humour too, but I guess you'll need to decide that for yourself.
Also very caring and gentle, a good listener and encouraging to others. Being real and genuine is very important to me, and I feel very touched when someone trusts me and sees me as a safe person.So that's one side of me. I also love adventures, I've done fencing, orienteering and wood chopping, hiked through Bungonia Gorge and parts of the Warrumbungle NP a few times (though I'm not as fit as that at the moment) ... I love animals (I've had two indoor rabbits), can be creative sometimes (photography, drawing, sculpting, writing, making board games) ... I like time to myself but also miss being with people.Right now I've just lost a close friend, and I know one of the best ways to deal with that is to look outwards and find some other people to love (platonically). So I'm not just wanting to get something out of you; I do enjoy giving as well as receiving.No age restrictions either. I've been close friends with people less than half my age, children and ones older than me. People are just people!
