Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am a intelligent, curious, compassionate, accomplished person who has had some great life experiences and have overcome significant challenges. I am financially stable but work part time helping my community. I am deeply involved in asian studies and arts and I am happy to share that with my partner, if he so chooses. My kids are interesting and independent individuals and we remain pretty close even though they live away. I have a few very close friends for many years. I am definitely a continual "work in progress" and I strive to improve myself. I feel that I have the maturity and strength to contribute to a respectful, supportive, loving, peaceful and joyful relationship. I am looking for a intelligent and gentle-natured man, with a strong character, a creative mind and spiritual awareness to be my best friend and more.
