In His Own Words
About him
Affection, honest, dependable, and interested in many things. I love cooking (planet-based diet but fine if the other person’s diet is not plant-based), music, (especially Baroque and jazz), board games (backgammon, go, chess, cribbage), conversation with a zing and finding you. Dreams include learning to tango and traveling to Italy. I am a good listener (for a guy). I can do five minutes straight now without suggesting a possible solution or offering help. My women friends tell me that is an impressive stretch for a man.
Favorite books/periodicals--The Economist, A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles, Care of the Soul by Thomas Moore, Winter's Tale by Mark Helprin.
Favorite Things--Baroque music with Sunday breakfast, blue skies, good friends at my table with great food and conversation, the light that comes out of certain Dutch masters paintings, surf sounds.
Ideal first date--Dinner on the terrace of a seaside Sri Lankan restaurant. Yes I know, but dreams are important!)
Recently nominated for the leading role in The Good, the Bad, and the Overeducated. (This is admittedly a bit obscure, but if you are familiar with films of the 1960's, it will probably make sense.)
About his ideal match
Looking for a highly intelligent woman with a vibrant intellectual life including diverse reading/book interests and a passion for one or more of the arts. Someone with great curiosity. Also, the usual—good heart, resonance, mutual attraction, and a playful sense of humor. Someone who believes in serendipity.
