It is evident that humanity has made limited progress cultivating interpersonal relationships. Social evolution is a somewhat obtuse and lengthy process. In what appears to prevail from our cave days, habitual competition and fear keep many individuals from developing honest relationships. which often results in defensive behavior, game playing, and impression shaping techniques. I thank you for the opportunity to meet a person with the initiative and intelligence to employ an alternate method of introduction; a welcome departure from the banal alternatives. It is in that light that I reply to your reaching out through the Internet. It is my nature to have a positive disposition and enjoy life and its countless possibilities. I am single, emotionally and financially secure, principled, considerate, gentle, affectionate, sensitive, passionate, adventurous, humorous, sexy, six feet, 200 pounds, in excellent health, Caucasian, and have light hair. I do not use tobacco product but do not object to its use. I see myself as a real person who does eat quiche and finds little value in the macho mentality. It is my belief that a woman is an autonomous person, with equal freedom of voice and thought. A free thinking attitude of inherent optimism represents my basic approach to life, including a willingness to deal objectively with those times when reality takes an alternate path from my desires. NOTE: To facilitate communications, I will need your email address.

I seek a relationship of a duration to be mutually determined, to closely share the enjoyment of life's bounteous options of recreation and experience. Quiet moments of mutual reflection as well as the adventurous quality of diverse activities are appealing, including sailing, camping, traveling, and exploring, to secluded, intimate, and passionate times at home; from movies and live concerts, to quiet walks and in-depth talks. Looks, age, ethnic context, and social status are simply not a factor.
