Meet a soulmate from Chandler, United States. You:
A passionate woman of artistry (musician/composer/singer, writer, director, or painter), scholarship (physicist, scientist, mathematician, or researcher), a member of the Q Continuum, or a dazzling swimsuit model with a penchant for silly men.
Me:
Computer chip designer, high-tech company founder, consultant for large semiconductor companies. I have lived by the tenet: "Lead, Follow, or Get The Hell Out of the Way", so yes, I am quite charming and delightful.
Objective:
To share quality time, fine wine, stimulating conversation, memorable concerts, and cuddly felines.
Notes on women:
Wine connoisseurs, intelligence, creativity, and honesty are unequivocally hot, as are ladies of irony, sarcasm, and political incorrectness.
Bonus incentive:
As an official Infinitely Curious human, I peruse and answer all incoming emails. Regardless of someone's undesirability (i.e. 20 years too old, 150 pounds overweight, a convicted felon, or an admirer of Glenn Beck), I will cheerfully reply to her email and politely explain why I am not interested. If a person approaches me, smiles, and says "hi", I could not fathom ignoring them and walking away without at least acknowledging their rightful existence in the universe.
My new mantra: have fun today, tomorrow, and the following day. Then have more fun. Hey, what could be more fun than that?

Date single man from United States. Me? I'm fortunate enough to be pretty well-grounded. I could care less if your pictures weren't taken last week, or if you are wearing sunglasses to cover your sad eyes.
Yes, I like Bruce Springsteen
I keep my Yamaha in the living room, not the garage. I have a padded room in my house where I may sit by myself for an hour.....surrounded by drums, of course!
I serve Sambuca with 3 coffee beans.
Definitely a conversationalist (read: talking AND listening). I have a good sense of humor, and love to laugh. I enjoy my success, and pay close attention to my failures. My family and friends are the best things I know.
My interests and hobbies are very diverse. I love the arts, concerts, musicals, etc., but also love the outdoors; camping, fishing, Scuba diving, hiking, kayaking, underwater basket-weaving, etc. Travel is great, and I am always up for a new adventure (even if it is only a couple of blocks away). Not really into bull-riding, but if that is your gig, well, I might try it!
Favorite ice cream? Blue Moon
And You? You're fine, don't worry about that.

Date single man from Arizona, United States. Well ladies, thought it time to share what I've learned over this past year (written 5/27/12). This isn't about how women didn't live up to their profile (which wouldn't be true or productive). Rather, it's a story about how I figured out what I'm looking for. I know, shouldn't I have figured this out before venturing into the world of internet dating? Absolutely! But sometimes growth doesn't come when it's convenient, just be grateful it comes. And what kind of man would I be to ignore those lessons? Sadly, the answer to that is, a typical man.
Before I share what I learned, let me share what I did. I repeated a behavior, time and time again. I wasn't aware of this behavior as I was living it, but once revealed, I became responsible for it.
The behavior: I would contact a woman, with a wink, an email, or maybe both, and anxiously await her reply. When she replied I felt hopeful and responded with an email. And as long as it stayed there, well, all was good. But as soon as the relationship evolved to the first meet, I would retract. I passed this off as, "we didn't have chemistry", or maybe I held back emotionally or socially. Though I called that "being nervous".
What I learned; I was not ready to move into an intimate relationship. HUH? THEN WHAT THE HECK WAS I DOING ON MATCH! I know I wanted to be in a committed relationship, but my behaviors were not in line with those "good intentions". Then it came to me! What I'm searching for is (it was a shocker to me) my best-friend. Yep, I said it, and with that came a second realization. In my personal belief system, friendship based on intimacy is likely a facade, but intimacy based on a solid friendship was good, right, pure, the real deal.
Another question: "So how does one go about finding their best-friend on a site where the expectations of all involved, including me, is a relationship that moves to intimacy?"
Now dont get me wrong, I want an intimate relationship; holding hands, kissing, snuggling, longing, passion, romance, and making love. But life has taught me if you lead with those needs, you may sacrifice something of greater value. Okay, one might luck out and find true friendship after intimacy. But, if you aren't that lucky, then you either find yourself in a relationship that is "wanting" or you must end the relationship. Both of those result in "heart-ache", and haven't we all had enough of that?
Let's pause for a moment and take a little trip: Imagine your partner is your "best-friend". This is the person that has your back, will be there for you no matter what. You feel so safe and secure that you can share ALL your secrets. And he loves you because of them, not in spite of them. This man is grateful for every past decision you ever made, both the good choices and those you are embarrassed to share, because they all led you to him. Someone who loves you, adores you, misses you when you're apart, and cherish each minute you share together. Can you imagine that feeling of acceptance, belonging, emotional safety, and inner peace? If you can, now imagine you feel the same way about him. Wow! Right?
So, let's return to my earlier question. How does one find such a person? While waiting in the line at the grocery store? Randomly see each other from across a crowded room? Or maybe on Match? Any of those would be okay with me, just looking for that one who is looking for the same thing.
Okay ladies, there it is, open, honest, and real. I would love to hear from those that have some insight into solving this dilemma. Am I way off base here or is there hope?
About Me: Raised with Southern values, feel comfortable opening doors or walking on the traffic side of the sidewalk. I enjoy dancing, exploring, movies, and developing a non-profit called PIFpeople . ;com.

Meet a soulmate from Arizona, United States. My wife has left me because I was not listening. I know the mistakes made and I am not over it completely(but she is) I have a really relaxed attitude about life and used to get excited only about the big stuff. I love politics and can talk forever about it without ending up in a fight, debating most issues political or not, is a passion and I stay informed about almost everything except celebrities. I like to golf and I am trying to get back in shape by walking. I am not too fat I am to skinny. I have quit smoking and this is brutal right now.
