I'm bright, educated, professional; intellectually curious and well read; fiercely and unquivocally loyal and honest, kind, and pretty creative for a math/analytical kinda guy. I like romance, I like dating - you know, a real date? Flowers, picnic, handholding, the slight but constant electric buzz of romantic tension. I LOVE kissing....

Though experience and necessity have made me pretty much fearless, I tend to be reserved. This shouldn't be confused with shyness - there's a difference. If you're unclear on the diff, ask me.

I'd like to meet a friend, confidant, and lover for now, preferably a woman with whom there is potential for a LTR.

It would be cool if she turned out to ultimately be the caretaker of my heart. The One George Eliot spoke of when she wrote, "Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness, blow the rest away."

I have no specific ideal woman, but historically I've been most attracted to very smart, confident, thoughtful, adventurous, and expressive. And a woman is what I'm looking for, curvy... not a waif.

Of course honesty is very important, but kindness, compassion, loyalty, and empathy are equally important.

You should enjoy kissing. A lot. Kissing isn't always a prelude; remember being 16 and kissing for kissing's sake?

While I'm on the subject, I don't wish to seem indecorous, but physical expression of affection is very important to building a relationship and even more important to an established relationship. So long as you're somewhat adventurous, communicative, and (very?) enthusiastic then we should get along here.

I recognize that some of these qualities are a bit abstract, yet I also recognize them when a woman has them, and it's rare.

You're out there... I spent so much of myself on my career I forgot about *you*. I don't know your name yet, or where you live, but I'm doing my best to find you.

Also, I don't know if it was a Freudian thing or just thinking of my brother's year of birth, but I clicked on '69 instead of '67, and POF won't let me /\ it back. That makes me 41.

I like to keep it simple so we can focus on each other with either drinks at Starbucks, or a picnic in a park.

How about a record store? I decided to go back to vinyl about a year ago and I like to find new places that sell old records. C'mon, I'll buy you your fav 80s album (Cars? Scorpions? Cyndi Lauper? Ahh... Duran Duran?) even though you haven't had a turntable since Frankie Goes to Hollywood broke up.

Drive-Ins rock, but not on first date.
