On the coast of Cornwall there's an ancient, mystic and mysterious castle ruin called Tintagel. It's where legend says Merlin found Arthur as a boy. It's said that Arthur's ghost is seen on the cliffs above the gray, relentless surf, to this very day. Tintagel, where the waves crash on the rocks as the ghosts... whisper.

Tintagel, where I dream of holding her in my arms watching the sun burn into the sea...

I'm an old soul and a romantic born a thousand years too late. In another life, maybe I was a warrior poet that sought truth, honor and true love. I marvel at those rare elderly couples holding hands at the grocery store.

As for this life, I'm just a man that's well read, well travelled and open. I've made my mistakes, even dumb ones, but I have no secrets and no serious hangups. I'm warm and probably as comfortable to most women as an old bra.

I'm told I have a good, if warped, sense of humour. I'm spiritual in the buddhist sense, laid back, very sensual and sometimes spookingly intuitive. A giver more than a taker that wants another giver (for a change). I'm from Montreal, have Scottish genes and definately have an emotional French or Scottish side to me. You don't want to take me to a sad movie. Trust me.

Some say I wear my heart on my sleeve.

I want to be lost in Guinevere's eyes if I ever find her. Maybe she'll find me and save me from going cross-eyed staring at profiles.

In love, I now believe there is only one. A dedicated witness to your life. Maybe you just don't meet your real soul mate in every life because the lessons always come first. Maybe you just have to know the wrong one before you can even see the right one. Maybe meeting that one means your lessons are done this time around and an eternal love story can continue.

I'm definately not into ladies that think that they're entitled to some kind of Adonis or look at men as entertainment providers. Some women are so shallow they baffle me. When it's all about "me" how can there ever be an "us"?
It's supposed to start with friendship and then see if it catches fire.

So many women don't seem to know what they want then wonder why they never find it.

As for me, I'm just a man on a quest for the real thing. If it exists in me, it has to exist in one lady that knows that we don't make the magic alone. Mother Karma has a say. Some call it chemistry.

It's the same magic that every poet took to the grave knowing he never totally succeeded in described it.

I don't know why but I sense she'll be an old soul but, in this life, younger than me. I've never met her but I know she's there. I've waited for her my whole life.

I like nature, sincerity, The moody ocean, travel, mood music of all kinds (but spare me the rap) and the smell and quiet of a wet forest after a rain. I like most elderly people because they have no pretenses. They're REAL people who value what a lot of us miss as we rush around obcessed with what isn't important at the expense of what is.

I'm a certifiable animal nut. Neanderthals that kill beauty claiming it's sport piss me right off.

Then there's good coffee, people watching, computers, catch and release fishing, movies, theatre, reading, holding hands and deep conversation on... anything.

I like biking with my Jack Russell Terrier (The Terrorist). I should dye him pink and get him sunglasses. He's been joined to me at the hip since he was a pup and I wake up with a snout in my mouth every morning. True love.

I don't need someone. I want someone that makes my intuition sing and my heart pound to the beating wings of butterflies in my tummy. Someone that will resonate to these simple words, know that what I seek is rare and feel an intuitive tug to contact me because they want all the same things. She'll sense she knows me before we meet.

I dance. I cook. I have broad interests. I've held senior management jobs and seen much of The World. I'm easy to talk to. In some ways, I've had a blessed life. I've raised three incredible kids. I was faithfully married for a long time. I don't lie or play games. I know who I am.

Emotional maturity, sensuality, intelligence, honesty, loyalty, being affectionate, and knowing yourself matters to me. A sense of humor also doesn't hurt. You'll need it.

I'm a true Sagittarius: Honest, loyal, empathetic, passionate and sometimes blunt. Maybe Guinevere's a Leo, an Aries, a Libra,an Aquarius or another Sagittarius if you believe in such nonsense.

Somewhere where we can talk and see all those little inflections that trigger attraction . The rest is up to what all those poets tried so hard to describe.
