I value friendship not things nor data.
My friends will love you, my family will welcome you. Maybe we have already met at a sherry hour.
Let us see the world together, speak and learn a few languages, read to each other, and just be happy to share many interests. Water therapy would be nice as well as hikes/walks, museums, the arts, concerts, fireworks.
Be involved in your community. I am involved in mine.

Like big Napa reds and a cold beer after a round of golf.

Date people from Albany, United States. As in all things truly worthwhile in life, to me, love is an art, painted atop of canvas of mutual respect. I am looking for a best friend and lover who is fun and peaceful to be with. I would like him to be a kind and loving man, who has that quiet confidence knowing what he's made of. Though the years have given him wisdom and maybe a few laugh wrinkles, he still has that boyish twinkle in his eyes, never losing his sense of wonder and adventure. He also would have taken care of his body and his health, staying physically and mentally active, assuring his later years to be full of vim and vitality. :))
I am a very sensual and affectionate lover. YouРІР‚в„ўll find me to be a very nurturing and caring partner; very down-to-earth, communicative and articulate (even with my feelings, though sometimes the best feelings are left unsaid!). I am passionate, usually happy, with a great smile and sweet disposition. Being by the ocean gives me serenity; being with the man I love makes me smile a lot! By the way, I don't believe in friends with benefits and I don't do casual sex or one-night stands. What I do believe is that the union of man and woman is sacred.
I am fairly independent and self-sufficient, well-traveled, and lead a meaningful and purposeful life, developing and using all the talents and skills I have been given. I have had a great career in information technology, running an accounting software company, designing and implementing business management systems. Now I do financial consulting, teaching, and doing volunteer work, hoping to continue making a difference in this world. I value intelligence and integrity; in that spirit, I need to let you know that I am 60, but prefer someone not much older than me. INTP on Myers-Briggs, if that's of any meaning or importance to you.
I love getting all dolled-up, dressed in style for the occasion in understated elegance, be it jeans or LBDРІР‚в„ўs in high heels. I can be a homebody and just enjoy puttering around the house and making my home pretty, or I can be very active and enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities (dancing, sailing, biking, hiking, swimming, etc.), mostly dancing at least twice a week. I enjoy the arts, theater, opera, and music (listening or even singing). I like watching epic movies. Very artistic and good with my hands, I am also excellent at all the domestic arts - cooking, gardening, housekeeping (even if I do source that out sometimes), arts and crafts, etc. Mostly, I am just a genuinely nice, interesting and interested person. YouРІР‚в„ўll find me to have a voluptuous zest for life! And I love true, always loyal and loving to my partner. I really enjoy making my partner happy and well-loved. :))
Though I strive for perfection, I am not by any means perfect. I am a continual work in progress, living a relevant life. I am very family-centric, and usually host impromptu dinners, with delicious and healthy food, sometimes with karaoke singing. My friends describe me as insightful, funny, brilliant, and yeah, sexy, too! But wisdom and grace are best attributes. IРІР‚в„ўve lived a life packed with great experiences, looking to fill it up with more, maybe with you?
If you think so, write me a thoughtful email, ok. Winks are welcome, but to me it means you're just browsing along and not that interested, so in general I don't respond to just Winks.
