About Me

Darn, I seem to have lost all my contact information. Should I have contacted you earlier, unsuccessfully perhaps, please forgive the intrusion and accept my second glance as a compliment.Preface:I offered someone a smile the other day, and another a compliment, on the street, free of charge. Frankly, I did it because they were attractive, lit up my day and had thus earned it from me. I considered it basic gallantry, graciously offered, and expected the gifts to be simply and graciously accepted, no more. One was, and one wasn’t. You’d have though I was Jack the Ripper or something. So much for gallantry. A time is fast coming when none of us will rate a compliment, or even a second glance, sadly. Might as well enjoy the attention while you can get it, methinks. Even the virtual kind. ONWARD!Life is awfully short, isn’t it? I’’t delivered. Here’s an idea, let’s have some fun while we’re both waiting around. Here’s the pitch:“Tall, dark & handsome trilingual male, artist-philosopher-hunk type, might be looking for love at the moment, but life’s too darned short. It will happen when it happens, and it usually happens when you're not looking anyway. Meanwhile, the man will chose fun company over contrived virtue any day, and appreciate it solidly, in kind. He’ll even fix your lamp or put up your shelf. Well traveled, good company, monogamous, big hands. Mutual respect given and required. All the advantages of a boyfriend starter-kit.”“Will she be perfect? Heck no, I’m certainly not, but hopefully she’ll be an able-bodied, elegant lady-friend who’ She will be mature enough to understand that the longest journey begins with a single step, or not, and that trust is earned, as are respect, loyalty and friendship. And he’s only a lowly male after all, so no interest likely without a proper picture and proper introduction.Cheers!”P.S.: I’ve had the good fortune to learn early one of the better lessons in life. Perhaps you will appreciate it. I only go where I’m welcome, and I only stay where I’m well treated. That goes both ways as far as I’m concerned. Call it savoir-vivre.AN UPDATE.(The following anecdote should be taken with a HUGE grain of salt, and a good laugh).A mature lady friend of mine (M., in her late forties) recently blurted out something disparaging about older men dating younger women, rather than HER, at a friendly diner get-together. After coyly remarking that she herself was dating someone more than 10 years her junior, so what was her problem anyway, and deftly ducking to avoid the flying pint that ensued, I gave the matter some thought and decided to bring it up at the next meeting of the Men’s Advisory and Diagnostic Council On Women’s Behaviour.So, what makes younger women attractive to mature men you ask? And what part of that magic could ANY woman use to her advantage? You’d be surprised! After the general hilarity and usual banter died down, the Illuminati, all respectable gentlemen in their late forties and early fifties, actually agreed on 5 reasons their eyes and minds wander. It isn't ALL physical after all (not the top 3 items anyway). And yes, we would rather have the company of someone with a bit more "vécu", if only, if only…CONCLUSION UPON REQUEST…(if you ask nicely) ;-)P.P.S.: This is rather puzzling. My voyages in the meetville ocean keep bringing up a curious question: So how DOES one get to the “long term” without first going through the “short term”, and PROVING one is good enough at it to merit a longer posting? Any suggestions? A quiet beer or coffee somewhere sounds about right for starters. There’s no point if there’s no chemistry, no gleam in the eye, no scent. *** Amazing what those will do for two people.

    Man. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Taurus.

    Looking for: woman. In age: 52-62

    I like to be outdoors in the summer, camping fishing and just enjoying the sun. I prefer a woman that is easy going and has her own interests as well as being included in mine. I would like to meet someone who can be as happy going on a simple weekend trip as they would i think be on a exotic vacation. I prefer rock music. My hobbies are golf,cars, walking,and working in my yard. I am really looking for a long term relationship and would like someone with the same idea. If you are really looking for a one women man and a man that still treats people with respect then give me a call. If you are like 80% of the people on here and you have nothing to do but waste my time then keep looking. I am not the exciting thrill your friends kind of guy but i am honest and will give you my attention and if it gets that far my love. Update= if on my profile you see some age thing i tried to change that but it did not work. I am more interested in finding someone i can talk to and have the same goals with than how old you are. (but you must be at least old enough to be on here) All i ask is that before you send me a message is ask yourself if you are ready for a long term relationship wiht someone,if no then dont bother me. I am a young 54 with a zest for life but i am also not getting any younger. I am tired of being alone but i also am not willing to settle for the first person to come along.(unless the 1st is the one) Thank you for reading this and good luck in your search and your life!! meet for dinner or drinks and if we hit it off we will go from there

    Okay, lets do the "Forensic Profiling / on-line Interrogation" thing:HOBBIES/SPORTS: reading,photography,cycling,hockey,pilates/yoga,camping,gym &......laughing???.on & on.GOAL(S): with collaboration & teamwork, help *** life skills for kids with temperamental & behavioural needs.;us/we" rather than "I/me". I once saw a child in tears while waiting to see the principal...I simply rose & gave him a kleenex...he wiped his tears and said "Thank you". It felt good to see him feel better.Basically, trust, honesty & respect are the foundation for any type of relationship. Prior to "THE DATE":1.Review your "criteria list": he must be/not be // must have/not have. 2.After the process of elimination, this may lead to texting short Q&A's or talk using the "telephone"????...!3.PERHAPS, we decide to "meet & greet"...Wherever...we can choose together!ACTUAL DATE: "Walk & Talk"....maybe see some "shooting stars" or hear those "; chimes"Je debrouille en francais...not to perfection. ***PLEASE: Single or Divorced ONLY... apologies, NOT into the "Separated" status...

    Hate doing "The Description" so how about a Personalysis-type summary?You (as in me) are a predominately BLUE personality. The Core Motivation that drives you through life is "intimacy." It is important to note that this does not mean sexual intimacy (but I am...never mind). BLUES need connection - the sharing of rich, emotions that bind people together.BLUES seek opportunities to genuinely and creatively connect with others. Everything you do as a BLUE has to be quality-based, or you won't do it at all. You are incredibly loyal to friends, employers, employees, and your significant other. As a BLUE you love to serve and are very altruistic in this regard.BLUES have distinct preferences. Your code of ethics is remarkably strong and you have hopes for others to live honest committed lives as well. You enjoy sharing meaningful moments in conversation and are outgoing and accepted in any social situation.BLUES are: Analytical, Compassionate, Deliberate, Conceptual, Passionate, Gentlemanly, Respectful, Thoughtful, Sincere, Well-Mannered, I love good conversation, maybe a dance?
