Things that have bothered me:
|
|
Since my divorce in , I've been rather lucky in my relationships. I only wish that I could find one woman who is interested in being with one man. What has bothered me is that the majority of women are not terribly honest with their long range goals or their present circumstances. The last woman I dated never said in her profile that she simply did not have the time to give in a relationship. She never said that she worked constantly or that her child had emotional concerns. While she wanted a relationship, it was obvious that NOW was not the time. Luckily the majority of women are honest. I just wish that they were emotionally available to commit to a long term relationship.

I am looking for:
|

She is elegantly proportionate. She is not simply a pretty face but has the unique combination of Physical Beauty, Intelligence and Humor. She is a romantic woman, affectionate, tender and good hearted. She is independent, selective, will not settle for mediocrity, a good communicator and an active listener. She has a good imagination, is sexy when she wants to be and sensual because it is her nature, pure and simple. She is an honest person, and doesn't sweat the small stuff. She is a one man woman as I am a one woman man.

Cool Movies:
|
|
I like romantic movies, the type where I can quietly or blatently cry. My favorite movies are Love Affair with Irene Dunne and Charles Boyer and the remake, Affair to Remember with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr. I also like Imitation of Life with Lana Turner, Bridges of Madison County and the Notebook. Walt Disney's cartoons are also a favorite of mine: Fantasia, Dumbo, Lady and the Tramp.

My Favorite Groups are:
|
|
I have an eclectic repetoire of music. I like Easy Listening (Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Michael Buble), light opera (Bocelli, Domingo), some ballet, symphonys, classical, some country. I like the Beatles, the girl groups of the 60s and 70s and old time rock and roll.
|
|
I am looking for a personality like:
|
|
I believe that I possess certain qualities that people immediately feel comfortable around me. I am an articulate communicator, and a very good listener. I am an honest man who has integrity. I don't belittle anyone. As a therapist, I know how to ask leading, open ended questions. I've learned never to push the envelope but to simply give the other person room to act and to react. I use my sense of humor to offset any tones of seriousness. I don't talk about myself but show that I am most interested in the other person.
|
|
Are you willing to compromise in difficult times and situations?
|
|
Yes, I believe that compromise MUST be a part of any relationship. The couple must be open and receptive to giving in. No one person is right all of the time, regardless of how they were brought up. Men are innately selfish creatures. They think with their genitals while women think with their hearts.

Willingness to meet others from boM:
|
|
If I wasn't willing to meet people from this service, I wouldn't have spent all of this time completing these essays. I am genuinely interested in meeting that special someone on this site. I am also on Singlesnet. and JDate. I have been divorced since and have utilized Internet Dating sites to meet people.
|
|
Are you ready to start from scratch?
|
|
I am divorced. I am not hung up on my ex-wife or ex-girlfriends. I am responsible to myself only at this point in time. I am looking to start from scratch with a new woman/lady. I have nothing going on in my life that would stop me or inhibit me from committing to a full-time, on-going relationship.
|
|
My typical day:
|
|
To experience a comfortable feeling of togetherness from the moment of the first hello. Instead of sitting across from one another, we sit next to each other. I find that I can't stop smiling but my sentiment is not alone as she is smiling at me as well. We both comment that we're glad that the other person looks so much nicer in person than how they look on their photos. Conversation is effortless and there are no awkward silences. I find myself reaching over and pushing some hair away from her face. She throws back her hair and my smile is even broader. I comment that her facial bone structure
is remarkable and has she ever done any modeling. She says "no". The poor waiter keeps coming back to the table but we're having the grandest time just talking to one another. She orders a Merlot and I order a White Zinfandel. Without any warning, I lean towards her and I kiss her shoulder. She leans forward and kisses me very softly on my lips. I kiss her back. Softly and then a little harder, a little more passionate, until we are locked together, oblivious to the coming and going in the restaurant. Oblivious to everyone. The only two people that exist is she and I. After the longest moments, we decide that we better order before they throw us out of here. That would be the perfect 1st date experience.

My Wish List Includes:
|
|
I would like to go to Italy and Paris or any romantic destination with the special love of my life. I have no desire to go bungee jumping or walking on coals. I am claustrophobic and as such as I enjoy the closeness of being with another, I do not want to be locked in anywhere with anyone.
