I am a warm, intelligent, loyal, honest, funny and caring man. I am reflective in the sense that I believe we are all products of our earlier experiences. We cannot truly know ourselves or achieve deep intimacy unless we understand this. My word is a reflection of my personal integrity and a handshake guarantees that I will do what I promise. I have learned (the hard way) that love is about accepting people for who they are and not who you want them to be. I am a funny person who can be light-hearted while seeing the humorous side of life. I am physically active and socially engaging. I live at the beach, ride my bike down the path, touch the sand and see the sunsets most days of the year.I am an avid reader, a photographer, a beach bum and aspiring writer. I love the movies, theater, concerts, baseball games, good restaurants and exotic travel. I love to share time with my friends and family and enjoy a wide range of conversation. I am looking for a woman who "gets it" and understands what is truly important in life.
She knows that relationships need constant attention in order to grow. She likes herself and trusts her basic intuition. She is secure in her own identity, has a sense of independence and her own passionate endeavors. She is courageous and able to confront what she fears. Warmth and a sense of humor are crucial: as is physical health, emotional integrity and the ability to laugh at oneself. She must be intelligent and posses a curiosity and a desire to understand the complexities of the world in which we live. She can enjoy herself and see the world through positive eyes. Most importantly she wants too share her life with a good man. She will become a partner to share the ups and downs, the good and bad hair days . . . someone who will try to understand the inner me and let me see theirs. . . . a woman I can truly call friend.
I cannot respond to profiles without a photograph . . . and question the concept of winks from 3000 miles away !
DISCLAIMER: I am actually 63 . . . I changed my age to make myself visible to slightly younger women in their search preferences. My intent was not to deceive, but a tactical move in the game internet dating. My photos are accurate and recent !
