One in a Million Seeks Same

Male (75) looking for Female Austin, Texas, United States

Intelligent, articulate, professional who has spent many years living abroad and has a good appreciation of what we have and what we lack. I make pleasant, well-groomed appearance and while far from perfect, I am pleased with the person I've become. Open-minded and non-judgmental, I don't seek a specific type of woman in terms of appearance, body type, race, etc. Rather, I'm looking for who is attractive inside and out and exhibits compassion, self-confidence, intelligence, good humor and who can both give and receive love, affection, and consideration. I relate strongly to my Jewish heritage, but am non-religious. Though neither a Republican nor Democrat, I am very progressive politically and thus have a much harder time relating to conservatives. If you're a Bush/Palin/Perry fan I suspect we're not a match. I may be the funniest person you'll meet, and as honest as consideration for the feelings of others will allow.

I try to take advantage of Austin's performance scene: I'm a member of the Paramount Theatre and yearly see a number of shows there, as well as at the Long Center, One World Theatre, and Zach Scott. I don't watch much sports anymore, though I try to catch the Longhorn games whenever possible.

I currently live in an apartment in NW Austin, having downsized from my home after my younger daughter left home.

Goal in lifeI am not religious and do not believe that there is a heaven. This does not mean that I am selfish or unkind; I live me life by the Golden Rule and treat others as I would wish to be treated. But since this life is all we have, I want to make it as pleasant as possible. Not a day goes by that I don't do a number of things that give me pleasure. I'd like to leave my society in better shape than I found it.
