OFF THE MARKET!!! I am with someone now, and happy. Thanks for your interest! :)
Hello! My name is Chris. I am in fairly decent shape having been a martial artist for 32 years. I spent 6 years as a Buddhist Monk, am ex-military, extensively educated, speak English, Russian, and Spanish, am VP of Operations for Baldwin, and play a mean guitar. (My singing ain't half bad, either!)
MAN SEEKS WIFE! One of these days, I hope to be lucky enough to meet a woman who is intelligent, capable, physically and mentally healthy, resourceful, and interested in a long term relationship/marriage/children. Israeli ex-military or even USMC (Oh, be still my heart! )a definite plus. College grad also a plus. Attractive doesn't hurt, but not a requirement.
My "ideal woman" would play chess at 1500 level or better, or have at least one black belt (any style), be equally comfortable on the Champs-Élysées or on the Southside of Chicago, can ride a motorcycle, or drive a semi,or fly small aircraft, or ride a horse, or sail, swim, intelligently discuss particle physics or Cheyne-Stokes breathing, or know the difference between mitosis and meiosis, have a talent of some sort, (singing, musical instrument, art, dance, whatever), who knows the proper way to use a miter saw, or practices meditation, or can set a broken leg, loves dogs and kids, is assertive without being aggressive, self-confident, self-aware as well as aware of others, and who doesn't NEED anybody, just WANTS somebody.
I guess the most important things to me, the things that make a relationship into love, are what I seek. Compassion. Passion. Understanding. Joy. Things a person either has or does not have, and unfortunately there is no way to really know until you get to know them.
First Date
First date I would prefer to meet somewhere with lots of people, but quiet and non-distracting enough that we can talk. Maybe walk the dogs along the beach out back. Mostly talk. Try not to embarrass myself totally; haven't really actually "dated" since before cell-phones were invented.
