I am seeking an intelligent and sensitive woman for a long-term relationship. I have a unique combination of intelligence and sensitivity. I am articulate, honest, and well rounded. I'm passionate about life, my friends, and about learning new things. Life is a journey full of surprises. I've had my ups and downs and am a better person because of it. I'm not overly worried about the future nor do I spend much time dwelling on the past. Family, friends and animals are very important to me. I love my grandson and my dogs. I've been poor, I've been rich, and everything in between. I've had lots of past lives, enjoyed everyone of them, and have no regrets. I'm just as comfortable having deep conversations as I am hanging out and watching a good movie with a bottle of wine.

Someone who is easy-going, honest and extroverted. You have your own life and friends, and are happy with who you are. You are not looking for someone to cling to for validation. You are your own best friend. You have scars like the rest of us, and you wear them proudly. The journey of live is more important to you than arriving at a particular destination. You see life's unforeseen surprises as opportunities to grow, not as events that overwhelm you. You are assertive, not aggressive. You know how to express your anger in a constructive way. You would prefer to be part of a solution then be part of a problem. You enjoy the company of others but are not overly needy. You like being around family but are not overwhelmed by their life circumstances. You are not afraid of being honest with yourself and others. You are not afraid of working at a relationship over time. You believe in a higher power but are not a fanatic. You have inner beauty. You have your act together. A first date would involve good coffee at a good coffee shop with good conversation. Great supper at a good restaurant, with good conversation. Laughter. A walk by the lake or river or ocean.
