Growing older is easy but growing younger is a trick!

I am looking for a friend, a companion , a confidant, a travel partner, a lover and perhaps more. If you are the right woman for me we would both know it few short minutes after we meet. My friends say that I have a good sense of humor with a little sarcasm to go along with that. I am told by people who know me that I am true a gentleman, open, fun to be around and have a practical side that many admire. I am successful, accomplished and very comfortable in my skin. I enjoy many things and I have several interests. All depends on what "we" feel like doing at the moment! I can be spontaneous and enjoy weekend get-aways especially during the warmer weather months. I love to go out to a sidewalk cafe in my neighborhood and sit around for a drink with a friend or just people watch. I have traveled extensively and lived in many places. I have learned that people's emotions are very similar even when their expression of these emotions differ. I live in the heart of the City (on the UES) and love city life. I don't like to waste time with lengthy e-mail exchanges. If we decide that we may have a connection then I would like to meet over coffee or a drink and find out. Life is short and time is precious. Life is even more beautiful with a companion. I am still searching for mine. Incidentally, if you have read what I wrote so far you might be interested to know that: I am influenced by Gibran in his book The Prophet and what Almitra says about God, Love, Marriage and Children
