Former soldier, entrepreneur, real estate investor, professor/teacher, and president of successful communications company. Retired, but very active, healthy, and adventurous widower with wide range of interests, including mountain climbing/hiking, water sports, travel and creative arts. Own beautiful, waterfront lake-house with dock and boat-slip ready for the right companion and partner to come play on the water. Have great sense of humor, am generous (but prudent), creative, stable, pleasant, articulate, perceptive, well-read and well traveled. I also have a superior education in both the arts and sciences. I'm no prude, but neither am I a player. I am religious/spiritual, but not a fanatic or a legalistic nincompoop. I'm very stable, but also funny, fun-loving and playful, and I'm looking for a partner with the same qualities. Please, I'm not interested in shallow relationships, promiscuous liaisons or one night stands. (Life is too short for dead-end relationships. ) I seek an active, attractive, healthy woman with a generous, giving, playful, pleasant, stable and loving nature. I want to share my time with a woman, who cares about God, herself, her spouse/companion, her family, and others. In a nutshell, I want a woman with beauty, brains, character. Must have depth of soul and be absolutely trustworthy.
