I am 62 years old on the outside and somewhere between 25 and 40 on the inside. I have a master's degree in education and I am retired. I am into computers (surprise!), photography, acoustic guitar, archery, chess, tennis , my dogs, playing pool, fishing (I have my own bass/channel catfish pond --- so none of them get away!), gardening, boating, oh yeah, and my Harley.
I love summer and fall and endure winter and spring. If it makes any difference... I am a Gemini but I try not to take it too seriously. I am not very religious but I am rather spiritual and humanistic... and I don't go to any meetings! Morally I am not perfect but I'm not a bum or a derelict either. I tend to be shy initially but only initially! I am neither a neat freak nor a slob but being schooled in genetics, chemistry and thermodynamics, I do have more than a passing fascination in randomness, uncertainty, and order within apparent chaos.
I love to watch a cozy, crackling fire and listen to the rain but I have a particular passion for summer thunderstorms! I
I like oldies (particularly the Beatles, the Eagles, ELO, Aerosmith, and the Platters), country, some heavy metal, folk, and the blues but I would attend a symphony or a musical once in a while just to please you especially if you would reciprocate by going to see the Eagles in concert with me. If you're heavy into theater, or European travel we could be in trouble!
I guess, at 62, I should be content to sit back, relax, and contemplate a life reasonably well lived. But something is missing... a quest is as yet unfinished... a part of me remains undiscovered. Perhaps, everything else considered, I should just forget about it and be at peace with myself. The optimist says, "This is as good as it gets!" while the pessimist fears he may be right! Half full or half empty matters not. Without a woman to share this life... it's still only half a glass!
Nothing is quite so emasculating as betrayal and nothing is as revitalizing as trust. And so I live to be trusted and to trust... to know the joy of hope fulfilled... and to learn the meaning of forever.
My Ideal Person:
My ideal woman is both simple and complex. She is definitely not materially high maintenance. She desires a long term one-on-one relationship but it's okay if it doesn't involve marriage just now. She much prefers being outdoors... appreciating the behaviors of praying mantises and walking sticks as much as the beauty of spring wild flowers and Perseid meteor showers. She is a woman of intense passions and attractive in her own way. She begins her most interesting conversations with her eyes!
