Please read profile before emailing me! Seriously...por favor!

Cerebral and sensual.
I'm indescribable :o) Really, I am truly unique and can not be categorized or put into any one box. I've always felt at ease in a variety of venues with many different types of people. I live equally in my head and in my body. I'm smart and sexy -also funny- and I'm looking for a smart, sexy and funny man. I look at least 10-15 yrs younger and act and feel a lot younger than that! I've been dating almost exclusively younger men (and not because I pursue them!) and am still open to that but would love to give someone my age or older a chance - lol. I have a huge heart with a lot of love to give to the right man, but I won't know who that is until we become great friends first. I am sincere and honest and play no games and have no patience for those who do. Very independent = I don't need a man; I desire one!

****Don't stop reading now...this part's important!!!***** I'm looking for a man that can be macho and sexy as hell but still sensitive and vulnerable. And most importantly: capable of, and comfortable with,honestly expressing his thoughts and emotions. Am I crazy? Does he, do you, exist? Someone like me (please see above). Also a huge plus if you like jazz and latin dancing and you love to cook. I am attracted to tall, muscular men and better a few extra pounds (if worn well and actually only a few) than too skinny. You don't have to have a six-pack, tho I wouldn't complain if you did ;o), but you should have a visible waistline. A slight beer belly is one thing, provided you are actively working on it on a regular basis (I, too, am a work in progress), but, come on guys, a beer keg belly is another thing entirely. As I indicated, I do not smoke, would really prefer if you didn't, but would not discount a good man who smokes occasionally.

btw A lot of you claim to give great massages, but I'm actually licensed to give them. lol

I live upstate NY/work part-time in Manhattan

All my pics are recent-so please have recent pics, too!!!!!

My ideal first date would probably be meeting in a relaxed setting that was not too noisy and not too quiet, so as to facilitate easy conversation. Weather permitting, it would be lovely to have a drink or coffee outdoors followed by a stroll (holding hands down a moonlit beach, of course lol) at which point we could move onto a meal if the vibe was right.
