About Me

"Risk everything for love if you are truly human. Otherwise, leave this gathering." -RumiWriting about myself is difficult, but required, so here's my brief ramble. ~~I feel that the focused pursuit of end results alone leads to unhappiness. For me, happiness comes through the process of getting where I'm going. Sharing that experience with a partner, and taking part in their journey, makes the experience more meaningful. ~~I am a sane and loving person who connects well with others. I value friends and family and animals. I'm politically left of center and that is reflected in my work as a business owner, filmmaker, teacher, writer, and musician. I try to walk a fine line between being non-judgemental and making the decisions I must in order to get through each day. ~~I am an educated person with two masters degrees. As a musician I have performed with orchestras, sang backup with the Carpenters for 5 years (I was very young at the time), gigged with numerous bands and scored hundreds of films and TV shows. My graduate degrees are in film and I currently make my living as a producer/director/writer and university professor and department chair. I am fortunate to make a living doing what I love to do. ~~My musical tastes are diverse; I appreciate every style. Rock, pop, jazz, classical, blues and alt country have a place in my heart. ~~I love great comedy and worship humor. I have a personal prescription that requires an hour of humor every day. ~~I am spiritually tuned to the world but non-dogmatic. I am a panentheist whose beliefs are most closely reflected by Taoism but am comfortable with many traditions. I believe honesty is truly the best policy--nobody was ever caught telling a truth. Rumi's advice was to risk everything for love. That appears to be the main reason we are here--to love and be loved. From my experience, relationships must have three elements to succeed: intimacy, commitment and passion. If any of these is missing, it just won't work. Having these parts in place is only one step. Balancing them with the needs and interests of the individuals and, at the same time, creating an environment that allows the main three to grow and evolve over time--well, that's the trick, isn't it? I believe it can be done. The binders that hold it all together are humor, openness, honesty and acceptance. I think we all want the same thing; to adore someone and be adored in return. A good relationship is worth working and persevering for. Finally, I hate coathangers; they tangle, hide out behind the dryer and mock me.Well, it appears that I am surprisingly capable of writing on and on about myself. I'll close by saying that if larger portions of the above ramble describe you, then there is a chance we could ramble together.WARNING: Any *** individuals using this site or any of its associated sites for studies or projects-you DO NOT have permission to use any of my profile nor my pictures in any capacity both current and future.

    Man. 53 years old. Zodiac sign: Sagittarius.

    Looking for: woman. In age: 50-60

    So to make a long story short, I am a down-to-earth and somewhat straightforward guy. Hoping to find someone who enjoys similar interests because, that saying that opposites attract is not always true. It would be nice to find one, that enjoys time in the kitchen cooking together as well as going out to a nice restaurant. I do my best to be a gentleman but, sometimes I need reminding. As far as looking for confrontations, I am not one of those types. I have a sarcastic nature and want someone to throw it right back. So humor is a must! Like me doesn’t mind holding hands or showing public displays of affection (not out of control). Keeping fit is very important so, I workout on a regular basis: lifting weights, running, aerobic machines and hoping to learn a little yoga. I’m a person who can find pleasure in staying home rather than always having to go out. I am looking for love; attraction, respect, communication skills, emotional availability, sense of humor, open mindedness, sense of wonder, kindness, a warm smile, a great heart, respect to others. A person that understands that their physical and mental well being are just as important as all the other things. I'm not looking for perfection, rather have a great connection. Actually, imperfections are somewhat cute and attractive in their own way. Those who find my profile of interest.... let me know what is on your mind. Please, do not use the "meet me" function feature (I will not be home). A comfortable setting, a light meal somewhere which allows us to partake in good conversation. Or an outdoor environment, hiking or walking just as long as it allows us to converse.

    Man. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: woman. In age: 52-62

    I am a stable and established professional who is seeking someone who will be my friend first. I like to spend time outdoors, either seeing new things, exercising, or just soaking in the sun and fresh air. I'm looking for someone who is fun-loving, kind to everyone, is stable and comfortable with herself, is intelligent, and knows how to take care of herself. A good conversationalist, loves the outdoors, and has a positive outlook. The first date should be at someplace quiet enough so we can get to know each other, but also with a fun atmosphere.
