About Me

I am a full fledged urbanite but I prefer the forest, the ocean, wooden homes, stained glass and potlucks with friends. I like to sleep in tents, ride my bike, be in & on the water, say yes to things that scare me, air guitar like no one's looking & read the New Yorker (not necessarily all at the same time). I eat Szechuan & I have a 7-year-old god-daughter. Your mom will like me. I have a career that’s unique, demanding & totally fulfilling.; volunteered with orphans in Romania (where I was also bitten by a feral dog). I’m addicted to TV (I don’t mean the educational shows) & therefore don’t own one. I’m not however, addicted to anything else & would prefer you aren’t either. I’m always looking for ways to grow & learn & so am usually enrolled in a class, some kind of training, personal development work, etc. You being well-educated, versatile & adventurous would be likely. You can count on me to be engaging, funny and to keep you on your toes. I’m very perceptive but I’m no mind reader so it’s important that you be someone who communicates honestly, clearly & often. I’m seeking a guy who is willing to own his humanity (the good, the bad & the ugly) & who wants to grow & learn throughout his lifetime. My Cancerian shell can be a bit soft at times, at other times I can be a bit too sharp & so I want to be with a man who is compassionate, bold & committed. If he is, he will get it all back in spades. I’d love a man who is tight with his family & is open to starting one of his own (with me that is) &/or sharing what he’s got. Someone with a backbone who isn't a bully;-woo; someone who loves sex but wants more in a relationship.Ultimately I'm looking for someone with whom I can build a life that is uniquely ours. I realize that these things don't happen overnight. Let's have a bit of fun & see where things go. You’ll walk away from a date with me feeling good about yourself. So if you’re intrigued & you’re not currently co-habitating with your (ex) wife or (ex) girlfriend, living with an untreated mental illness or planning on leaving the country in the near future, drop me a line.

It also needs to be a time to actually talk to that person and get to know them a bit more. For that reason, something like a movie doesn't really fit the bill. Although sitting in a coffee shop gives you a great chance to talk, it can also be pretty stressful - who likes to sit and stare at someone? I love the sun and love to travel.... let's talk about where we've been and what's out there to see!For me, to grab a cup of coffee on a Saturday morning and then wander through the Farmer's Market or down Whyte would be a great first date. There are always things to see and talk about and it allows you to "do something" without actually "doing something". Make sense...?Let me know if you'd like to join me at the market. :-)
