Bio: I am a well educated, intelligent guy who wants to meet goodlooking and healthy guys who share some of my interests and values. I am not looking for perfection and I realize that in any meaningful relationship give and take and compromise are essential to making the relationship work. I have a fairly wide range of interests including writing, going to the movies, bookstores, attending lectures, exercising several times a week, visiting my friends on a regular basis, listening to music, riding my bike and eating out. I am very health conscious and do not smoke, drink or use drugs, I try to maintain an optimistic attitude about life and view every day as a learning experience and a chance to do something important and meaningful. I do not like vanity, phoniness, narcissism or bad manners. I very much want to meet quality guys and hope that I will be able to do so on this site. But I want to meet people who are truly interested in a relationship and not just people who will email me for a few days and then stop communicating with me. I am a thoughful guy and will go out of my way for people I truly care about. I am loyal and committed to those tasks and people that I truly care about and am interested in life in all of its facets and textures. I am a freelance writer and like other writers I am endlessly curious about the world I live in and am a close observer of human behavior in all of its manifestations and eccentricities. If I see some thing wrong I will try to make it right. I will always be there for people and expect them to be there for me. I have a critical, curious mind that is, in part, due to my level of education but also to my natural desire to know more about the world I live in. I hope to hear from people who are truly interested in a relationship with an intelligent, loyal guy like me and who will give me the privilege and honor of getting to know them in return.
