I am a 52 year old male, professional businessman who is secured financially. i am honest, smart, fun and nice to hang out with. As I get older, while I truly enjoy romance, I'm also looking for a companion and friend. Don't get me wrong.. I am totally romantic, almost to a fault. I enjoy writing poetry and essays. I love to cook for close friends and sample new restaurants. Love movies of all kinds. Strolling through Eastern Market on weekends, art galleries and book shops. Am passionate about Nationals and Red sox basebal..I am passionate and honest with a great love of life, friends and family. I enjoy my work and love to travel. I am serious but also have a distinct sense of humor. Adjectives that friends have used to describe me: nice, down-to-earth, passionate, intellectual, romantic, sensual, unpretentious, relaxed or intense: appropriate to the situation. I enjoy dining in or out, theater, spending time with friends, family and many other activities.

I like a woman who is romantic and shows me her feelings. There's nothing better than that feeling of being in love. The attributes that I am looking for in a mate would be obviously an attraction to her, also very important is that she is sincere, honest, trustworthy, compassionate, good sense of humor, faithful, and respectful. A good relationship needs all these things to make it work. If you have the same thoughts then I hope to hear from you.
