About Me

Originally from Brooklyn, NYC, I live in metro Boston, MA for many years. Put a lot of value on mutual understanding and communication and its importance to a healthy relationship. I have a good capacity to accurately observe and interpret the world, understand and express how I feel about what I see. Am empathetic to those less fortunate and I try to be helpful to others. Am down-to-earth, easy-going, warm, honest, sincere, caring, affectionate, responsible, fair and friendly - a mensch! I'm definietly not the usual, run-of-the mill type - thinking outside the box more often than not. I'm a very decent human being, and have been told by several women, that I'm actually quite special! Enjoy outdoor activities, the splendor of nature, trips, scenery, mountains and sea coast. Been to most U.S. States and Canada - generally the National Parks (occasionally tent camping), hotels are great too. I've also lived for a number of years in Israel, as well as visiting in Iceland, Rome, London, Greece, the Azores, and many times to Canada.Also lived and studied abroad in Israel, earning a Bachelors (B.S.) and Masters (M.S.) degree in Earth Science. Have since gone on to study towards and obtain a 2nd Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling. I appreciate art, museums, music, quality film/DVDs (mainly independent and foreign ones) and exhibits. I enjoy board games (Scrabble, chess, and more), photography and such. Love children, animals and pets. Like to communicate, discuss and think and definately lean strongly toward the politically liberal/left. I am inclined towards the intellectual, scientific, psychological, artistic and natural world. Am certified to teach Earth Science and worked as a high school science teacher. Also worked for the government for many years as a weather forecaster. Have been employed as a Site Supervisor, Rehabilitation Counselor and now Clinician/Psychotherapist for adults, children and families with behavioral, emotional and mental health issues. I am also studying towards a state license to be licensed towards same. Have also managed a consulting firm and published a news report on Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). I am looking for a partner who will contribute to enriching and enhancing who I am and allow me to do the same for her. I am nurturing and looking for mutual support and encouragement. Ultimately, I'm looking for a long-term or marriage relationship.On a first date I'd like to meet in a public location, probably an ethnic restaurant (how about Thai, Indian, Japanese, Chinese, Middle Eastern, Italian or Greek?) for lunch or dinner. This would afford us the opportunity to spend some time in conversation and get to know one another. Other possibilities can certainly be discussed.A subsequent date might include a movie (preferably an independent, foreign or quality one) or an outdoor outing to Walden Pond, Cape Ann, the White Mts., NH, VT, ME, the Berkshires, NY, a picnic (Purgatory Chasm, perhaps) or something that is mutually agreeable.

    Looking for: woman. In age: 42-62

    To me Casual dating means meeting new friends. ...NOT casual flings !!!!!FYI -I do volunteer work at an animal rehabilitation center In Belize (mostly manatees and Monkeys!) The photos with animals are from the center...NOT tourist photo ops!!If you're looking for a ***suit and tie/downtown condo/drive a beamer kinda person....WRONG GUY!I do have an evolving career, but my work clothes are mostly quick dry and fleece, I live on my sailboat and drive a jeep! I'm not an outdoors nut/jock, but do enjoy camping year round, time at the beach, fishing at a little lake and of course time working on the boat (goes with the turf).I'm not a game player, and have been accused more than once of being "too nice", so it takes a while for people to really trust me, that's just who I am. I was a single dad for the a few years to 2 lovely girls. ....On my own now and time to get back to more things I enjoy. I'm a photographer and marine mammal naturalist by trade, a scuba diver by passion . I'm definitely looking for someone special to do things with, including walking, scuba diving and I'm learning to sail(no ego here if you know more than me on this one).. .http://youtu.be/OM5vLcwJmZ0 .....either above or below..... it's true!......K, If the average Canadian is a few pounds overweight then am I really a "few extra pounds" or just average? LOL .... I think the heading "favorites" sounds funny when you haven't even talked to someone..... my "favorite" list is more of a bookmark list of people I should write..."Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." ~ Mark TwainPS. I seem to get more responses because of the damm whale pics then my pics! lol ... go figure!First meeting - kinda casual, coffee or tea and then maybe a walk too. Future times could be whale watching, kayaking/canoeing, even scuba diving........ but preferably doing something!
