open to: any (35+) connection: any plot: i don't have his bio up (I'm lazy) but andreas is going through a bit of a mid-life crisis after losing his son and he's looking for ways to escape from the pain instead of reconciling with it. maybe along the way, he finds someone, that he can bond, over losing someone

was socializing supposed to even make him happy? make him forget a pain he wished was never brought upon him? people drink their sorrows away, but no matter how much he smiled. andreas still felt it. a labor of love that clung to his heart tightly, but he tried his hardest to keep a smile with them. a smile that was filled with melancholy. even with the music, in the club, hammering through the walls. it felt quiet away from the crowd. "I'm so out of place here," he exclaims with a weak laugh. "i don't know what I'm even doing anymore," his eyes swelled and it wasn't from the heavy smoke that was inside the club, like some ozone layer within these walls. "but I'm here."

open to: f connection: any test muse: andreas bentzen, 58, communications professor and a single father, who is unable to move on and let go of his son’s passing

“i must apologize, i am not a good talker, but i shouldn’t be self-indulgent and say that i am a good storyteller when there are many talented people who have imaginative minds and are able to convey elegance in writing. i am just a professor.” he admits while shrugging his hands towards the woman. “unless it comes from a book or to my knowledge, i have difficulty talking in an area i am foreign in, but a great listener, i am.” andreas smiles lightly before bringing his glass up so he could drink. “really, this isn’t my idea. my daughter just tells me that i must try old because i, too, am old... its her funny acronym of on-line-dating. very silly, of course.” a deep labored sigh escaped out of him as he looks to his drink for a short moment before turning to her, his ring-less fingers ringing each other. “i spend too much time at home.”
