Date a man from Redondo Beach, United States. I'm the father of three children: my daughter resides in Boston; my eldest son, his wife and their two darling daughters (16/14) live here at Redondo Beach; and my youngest son, an entrepreneur -- the father of Adam, born on 27 June '11-- permanently resides in Prague.
I'm generous, kind, stable (have a land line!), trustworthy, sincere, self-confident, and serious; have a relentless sense of wit and humor. I'm financially independent, very affectionate and selectively gregarious. A very helpful "prepman" - but only an amateur chef!
I'm sensitive to the values of my companion's friends and family members. I'm willing to relocate should my companion's personal life, her obligations or employment, or our mutual desire lead to such a decision.
Throughout my professional 40-year career I've served as a full-time faculty member or visiting professor in academia: U.S. Air Force Academy (Colorado Springs); University of Wyoming (Laramie); Cambridge University (U.K.) - NEH Fellow; Coe College
(Iowa); School of Medicine, University of Connecticut Health Center - Emeritus Professor - 1992 (Farmington); Medizinische Hochschule Hannover (Germany); Oxford University / Radcliffe Hospital (U.K.); Baylor College of Medicine (Houston); Massachusetts College of Pharmacy (Boston); and UNESCO (Paris). I've traveled and lectured throughout the U.S. / Puerto Rico, Argentina, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Japan, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and the U.K.
At this time I do not have a pet, but prior to relocating to CA seven years ago, I always had a dog. If my companion has a dog(s) or a cat, hopefully she'd not be inhibited from local travel.
I've been divorced for eight years. I hope to meet a woman who's truly fully prepared and ready for the future. She'd be kind, stylish, sensitive, nurturing, affectionate, introspective, confident, interesting and interested. Preferably she'd be retired or employed only part-time, and would, once we've spent adequate time together, be willing to commit to an exclusive relationship - no longer dating other men, or I other women. In time, she, like me, would be devoted to our relationship. She'd communicate easily as well as enjoy the fine arts: museums, theatre, classical music, dance, perhaps "mainstream" jazz and other cultural events. Most important, she'd be willing to share her feelings, thoughts and judgments in mutual, cordial conversation, and not be quick to anger. The word serene would hopefully "caption" us! My ideal companion would, I hope, reciprocate my devoted attention to her life, work and thought. If she has children, and perhaps grandchildren, she'd enjoy visiting them on occasion, but be willing to devote herself principally to our relationship: to entertain friends at home and explore new venues. In time, we'd both highly value our relationship and not construe it as only friendship. We'd respect each other's need for privacy and "space"; enjoy entertaining - laughing, and having fun - seeking joy often. Passion and compassion, as well as sincerity and mutual trust, are of ultimate importance if we're to create a successful, joyous and caring life together.
I'm interested in meeting a woman who (1) has truly disengaged from her most recent relationship; (2) resides independently; (3) seeks more than an escort or "buddy; (4) expects me to be available in addition to weekends/holidays; and (5) is willing to invite me to participate in some of her activities.
