Professional executive seeking significant other...my needle in a haystack!

Professional healthcare technology executive spending most career in the Silicon Valley. Currently traveling 40% of time (San Francisco/East Coast/International). I'm a divorced father of 3 children. 2 of them are very young (5 & 3), with me 50% of time and they’re my True North. I love and adore children. Physical age doesn’t define me. I feel ageless, though sometimes my body tells me otherwise! My ex-wife just turned 33. Age gap was never a problem, but lack of desire to grow, learn and understand was. I'm serious but don't take myself too seriously and I have a wicked sense of humor. As busy executive I balance work/life. I'm highly cultured but also simple and appreciate humbleness. I'm fluent in 4 languages (English, Portuguese, Spanish and Arabic) and raised in multiple continents. I’ll open doors for you, but also a whole new world of possibilities! My personality is a balanced dichotomy of “good guy” manners with “bad boy” playful attitude…pick your poison! Lol. I seek a friend, intellectual companion, a woman who is not afraid of living life with a big enough heart to encompass life and all its good and not so good things. An intelligent, self-confident woman ready to explore the possibilities and balance work/family life. Emotionally secure 35 to 55 women who have no problems dating a man with 2 young kids, accepts herself and is capable of accepting others and balance her needs with the needs of those in her life.

Insights
Describe the perfect evening.
It is whatever you make it to be! A family dinner with the kids. A night at the movies. Simple TV watching at home. A romantic dinner for two. A night at the symphony. A weekend drive. The kids at the park. A good "pillow talk". A week in Paris. Camping at Yellow Stone. The place and time are less important than the company. You create your environment, your romance and your bliss! I'm a firm believer that you can truly create your perfect evening if you really understand what makes your partner move. If you care enough to take the time and understand what is important for your significant other.
Describe your perfect weekend.
There are 3 kinds of perfect weekends...the family weekend, just for kids weekend and the just-the-two-of-us weekend. Each has it's own magic.
Do you believe in love at first sight?
Yes and no! Yes because it's human nature to be attracted to another through our eyes! And no because once our eyes are satisfied that little nagging voice powered by our brains starts talking and saying: is what am I seeing really there? Once our eyes are satisfied, then every other sight must count!
How many kids would you like to have?
Not sure. I have 3 beautiful ones! And, if you're my match, you probably have a set of your own!...or if you don't and still young enough to have them, then it will all depending on where things go with us...I never close the doors!
How important is someone's physical appearance to you?
As important as it is to them...but let's be honest, I most likely would not be dating you if you were not attractive because inner and outer beauty when harmonically combined is the killer app in a woman this man is looking for!
If you could have one super power, what would it be and why?
Flying...so that I could rise above my own limitations!
What is the purpose of marriage?
To share a life, build a family and see each other grow...but the subtle difference between marriage and relationship makes all the difference.
What is the most important lesson that you've learned?
You can't makes someone grow...unless they want to grow!
What do your friends like about you most?
My honesty and loyalty! I don't judge!
What do your friends tease you about the most?
My sense of humor...they say it's brainy, cultured but funny!
What gets on your nerves?
Lies, games and passive-aggressive behavior! Say what you mean woman!
What is the most important thing in a relationship?
Common ground and trust.
What's the best age to get married?
Not too young and not too old...but then again, why marry? Marriage does not equate to relationship! Sometimes it does if you're lucky. If marriage did equate to relationship, why the divorce rate is so high?...humm, it makes you wonder, doesn't it?
What turns you off?
Pretension, narcissism and histrionic personalities! No need to yell...outbursts are natural, but constant outbursts is a disease!
What turns you on?
An attractive, intelligent woman...smart is so sexy!
What do you hope to be doing five years from now?
Finally having met my match, let life go on in peace!
