Greetings and thanks for the visit to my profile! My name is Erik and I am an old fashioned Ivy League educated gentleman. I am the guy who knows what fork to use. I am a hopeless romantic who writes poetry and can sit outside looking at the sky day or night. I feel a special affinity for trans women because I too have been the target of those who want only to exploit me. I feel your pain! And with that awareness comes a sincere desire to connect and build a friendship that hopefully will blossom into a forever love. Thanks for reading and I hope to hear from you!
