Date single man from San Francisco, United States. About Me:
Once you get past the self-deprecating humor, you will soon learn that I'm a serious person who enjoys all the variety life can bring. How can I say that I'm a sincere guy looking to share this life with a like-minded woman? I guess I just did. I’ve been around long enough to know what’s important in life and let go of the minor distractions that try to steal our energy and time. I find my career both challenging and fulfilling but know that life is all about our relationships with others and ourselves. That is were my priorities lie. I enjoy all of the arts, and music is a big part of my life. I enjoy all types of music from rock to Latin to opera and the ballet. I really can’t imagine life without music.
About You:
I am looking for a woman who knows herself and that takes pride in her professional accomplishments, but knows that there is much more to life than work. I am attracted to a woman who takes care of herself both inside and out. She is conscious of how she dresses and has a sense of style. She enjoys being a woman and has a funny bone and some lovely other bones too. Most importantly she know herself and knows how the little things that many people take for granted.
My Idea of a Perfect First Date:
It involves me, you and a long, drawn-out moment where we don't want to say good night. And there is that spark. I'm a firm believer in chemistry.
Meet a man from San Francisco, United States. Match isn't a great place for those who are courageous or god-forbid, unique. I find myself flipping rapidly through the pictures in a first "sexual chemistry" sort, then skim the writing trying to find some spark .. but mostly it's breakfast cereal box copy and flat, one-dimensional photographs.
My friends tell me, "It's a numbers game," They tell me you have to go for volume, intensive campaigns leading to dozens of 15 minute coffee dates. It's not so much that my friends are cynical, more that they've wised up. I find this sad and wearying. Isn't there enough marketing in the world? Do we really have to commodify ourselves for strangers?
I don't know who I'm looking for. I want to be surprised. From within a broad range of potential partners I'd like to find one human being who through unpredictable processes, fits. But that does NOT make me a "romantic". Far from it. I'm a realist with a strong intellect and hard won clarity about life.
Like most men, I'm visually oriented. But I don't scan the pics looking for physical beauty as much as what I'd describe as sanity and clarity and creativity, which to me are beautiful. And I'm a sucker for improbable combinations of traits and out of the ordinary life histories. On the other hand, I've got my flake detector at Defcon 4. What are you looking for? If you reply, be ready to at least give me a peek so I'll be able to get up the head of steam to chase you...
PS This is a *totally* wink-free profile. The photos are a couple years old, reasonable facsimiles though I've lost some weight in the interim.

Date single man from United States. I'm just a guy and it can't be put much more simpler than that. I love being a father of my 20 year old daughter. I'm an ex-NAVY SEAL and a retired chiropractor looking for that special and sane (most of the time :) ) woman. I enjoy being a gentleman and don't look bad in a tux.

Integrity is a big deal to me. My age is real, my picture is recent. Please be honest about age and dates of photos.
Meet a man from United States. Poet, scientist, counselor, author, musician and mathematician trained at Caltech, Brandeis and Harvard, I've abandoned academia and much of what I've been taught in search of my soul. I value wisdom over intellect, guilelessness to craft, passion above mediocrity, and a quiet, principled spirit to the shallow modern persona. I play the trombone, am a tournament chess player, and work out regularly. I've done a lot of meditation, therapy (classical, Primal, Reichian, Core Energetics), spiritual groups (Yogananda, Yogeshwar Muni, Saniel Bonder, Adyashanti), and self-exploration (macrobiotics, Scientology [left running], Rolfing, HAI, David Deida, and Shamanic De-Armoring). I’m financially well off, own a lovely 3BR home in the West Portal area of SF, and have no debt or mortgage.
Although the brash, east coast energy of my New York and Boston roots is comfortable and familiar, I value natural refinement and reserved passion in a woman. This does not mean that I need you to be inexpressive or repressed; it means that I appreciate that still waters run deep. I'm semi-retired; when I work I'm self-employed as a consultant, counselor and author. I write, bind and publish personalized, fine art books, and have started printing, laminating and mounting large (up to 4x8 feet) hi-resolution astronomical photographs in my home studio. Skilled in communication, I see others deeply and love beauty in all things, particularly in a woman. I know myself and women fairly well, have a great deal to give–and I do.
The world of men, women and children is full of ideas: ideas from parents and childhood, of happiness and success, fear and separation, victory and conquest, marketplace, tribe and nation, and from having been civilized. Trying to live out these ideas is being lost in a dream. They have no reality, essence or fulfillment in themselves. Love is not an idea; it is who we are and all that is. Let us live together in the harmony and discord of woman and man and join in the music of the spheres.
Here are two of my shorter poems:
Queen of the Sea
Surrender like a woman,
Hold the clouds to your breasts,
The earth turns in majesty,
Drowning in the West . . .
The heavens love a drunkard,
The drunkard is a Queen,
Surrender, like her majesty,
And come home, once again.
Dream of Desire
When you arch your back,
Cities rise beneath me
In which I wander
Lost in your fleshy continent.
When you dream of desire,
I fall into my body
Through the miles of you,
My Queen.
Date a soulmate from United States. Looking for that special new friend for fun and adventure as I begin a new chapter in this exciting journey called life. I'm looking for someone who challenges me - helps me be a better person - fulfills my needs - makes life sweeter as we become a pair.
Can't say I'm ready for anything super serious yet, but am not "stoopid" to deny the surprise and gift of chemistry that brings two people together. Which means you're very attractive and confident and engaged in your fulfilling pursuits.
I've been lucky to have had several wonderful long-term relationships, which also have informed me more fully what I need now and see as essential for my future happiness at this time in my life. Hopefully, that will mesh with your special qualities, gifts, interests and energies. While I don't have kids (only grandkids-ha!) you either don't have kids as well, or are an empty nester.
Spontaneous trips to see art installations, architecture like Calatrava, Serra, Goldsworthy, Gehry (Bilbao), Zaha Hadid, are on the list, as well as (partial) travel list to...Machu Picchu, Angkor Wat, The Potala, Katmandu, Borobudur, Iceland, Wuppertal (Pina), NYC's HighLine, more of Chicago, The Canadian Rockies rail trip, Morocco, anywhere in Italy.....
I am a very visually oriented person, so love photography and film, as well as a wide variety of music that is eclectic from classical to rock to electronica to world to jazz and beyond (see you at Amoeba?). I appreciate more being introduced to new things (or rediscovering old) through someone else's lens.
