As for a few of the things that I enjoy, I would list the following (this is just a sampling): foreign and independent films, going to Whole Foods (when the heck are we going to finally get one on the upper east side already!), Curb Your Enthusiasm, American Idol, and listening to live music.

As for my view of an ideal relationship, I would say that I am seeking one in which there is trust, initimacy, and the sense that you can tell each other your innermost thoughts and feelings.

As for the attributes that I find attractive, I seek a woman who is intelligent, curious about the world around her, trustworthy, dependable, and whose tastes vary from fine dining and museums to sitting home and watching "Diners Drive-Ins and Dives" on the Food Network.

As for my view of a perfect first date, I would say it would consist of drinks and/or dinner, great conversation, and a feeling by the end of the evening that you really want to see this person again soon.
