Penpal message / wishes: Greetings and salutations! I’m a 60-year-old British gentleman living in picturesque Wales, UK. I’m seeking email penpals and friendship only, so if your motives lie elsewhere, I respectfully ask that you pass me by. I will always welcome good-natured ladies and gentlemen from all walks of life who enjoy thoughtful and easy-going conversations.
Whilst email is my preferred mode of communication, I’m also open to live audio calls, preferably via Google Meet. That being said, it’s important we get to know each other first, as I’m not comfortable calling complete strangers. I'd like to make it clear that all voice calls are, and will always remain, completely optional.
Before contacting me, kindly consider the following:
• Please don’t ask (or hint) for money, sponsorship, or gifts. I'm on disability and skint, so there’s no point in trying. I don’t accept money or gifts either.
• I'm not a prude, but if you’re seeking inappropriate or lascivious discourse, I suggest you look elsewhere, as there’s nothing for you here.
• I wish to receive text-only emails, please. For cybersecurity reasons, I do not open attachments or click on links.
• My inbox isn’t The Jerry Springer Show, so let’s keep things calm, polite, and mutually respectful at all times.
A little more about myself: I’m an old-fashioned and easy-going person who appreciates a quiet home life. My background is working class, but I was fortunate enough to have received a good education many years ago. Life’s wear and tear has left me mildly disabled with arthritis, so I spend most of my time at home. I’m straight, currently single, and live alone. Nevertheless, at this stage of my life, I’m content with my lifestyle choice.
One of my favourite interests is photography, and during the summer months (health permitting), I like photographing the local scenery, wildlife, flora, and various historic buildings. I've been interested in computers since the early 1990s, and over the years, I've built and repaired my own systems. My most active interest is corresponding with email penpals, which is a hobby I've participated in for many years. In my spare time, I enjoy watching YouTube videos and DVDs.
So, what should we discuss? I’m open to a wide variety of subjects, from ordinary, everyday life to exploring some of life’s greatest mysteries. With that in mind, I’d rather avoid religion, politics, geopolitics, and anything related to culture-war issues. I do enjoy a good discussion, but those subject areas are far too contentious for me to consider.
To start the ball rolling, kindly introduce yourself. It would be helpful if you could also let me know some of the subjects you particularly enjoy discussing and those you'd rather avoid.
To set things in motion from my side, I’d like to suggest five intriguing and thought-provoking topics we could potentially explore:
1. Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly integrated into our lives, but what are the implications of this technology?
2. In a world dominated by CCTV, facial recognition, and other forms of digital surveillance, is privacy becoming obsolete?
3. There is a strange dichotomy between the Fermi paradox and UFO sightings. If UFOs are apparently not of extraterrestrial origin, what could they possibly be?
4. Are paranormal phenomena hoaxes, natural events, or something else entirely?
5. Can biological and neurochemical interactions explain almost all mystical and spiritual experiences?
If none of the above topics appeal to you, feel free to suggest others that interest you more. I’ll consider most subject areas, provided they are reasonable and within my academic abilities. Whatever the topic we explore may be, I do expect a good discussion and not an unreasonably short, perfunctory answer.
Thank you for reading my advert. Peace and love to everyone.
Regards,
Alan.
