Hi, not proud of this, but it is what it is as I approach utter frustration. Here's my story. Married, older, in a literal dead bedroom for more than a year - 13 months, to be exact. Frustrating, but that is not the intent of this post.

Back to topic, I travel a bit for work, but have never played around. I communicate well and can hold my own in a conversation, so I do not believe that is an issue. I can talk and connect. But I am deathly afraid of being a creepy guy. I have two daughters, in their 20's, and a wife, and I hate when they tell me stories of the creepy guy who hits on them; I can't be that guy, it makes me cringe. So I don't put myself in that position; women have as much a right as men to sit at a bar and not be talked to or hit on as I do, I don't want to make them feel uncomfortable. So, it's tough to connect if you don't talk but as a dad, it's a hurdle. And I am not even talking about young women, there is no interest for me in talking to the young; that creeps me out, too. I am talking about older women, those who like me, have some tread on their tires. This is probably an issue with an easy answer, but any thoughts? TIA.
