Authentic Seeking Another to Share Life.

I value being involved in the live of a special friend and communicating with him on a variety of levels. I have eclectic tastes in the arts, food, furniture, etc. and enjoy theater, movies, DH & XC skiing, canoeing, mountains, beach, museums, travel and much more. I am authentic, educated, semi-retired, caring, sensitive, flexible, playful, aware, progressive (politics and theology/faith), contemporary Christian and creative.
I'm seeking complementary traits and values and one who shares some common interests, but certainly not a mirror of me. Truly looking for friends and hearts to share, and maybe/hopefully more if that "special one" comes along.
Although I'm willing to communicate via email, I prefer to meet face-to-face and so that all our persona's may interact.
Maybe we could start to get to know each over coffee, lunch, dinner, a movie, or a walk, then maybe progress to a day-long activity such as a ski, canoe or road trip date. Just as "Rome wasn't built in a day," neither are lasting friendships. . .

Looking For

Must haveIntelligence, Good Looks, Humor, Empathy, Sensitivity, Boldness, Spontaneity, Wit, Thoughtfulness
Look for in a partnerHonesty, authenticity, relative creativity in their own right, compassion, some shared interests, compatibility, similar political perspective, openness to my faith/spirituality, and an appealing appearance. For me, some men become better looking the more I get to know them.
On the first dateChat over coffee and then go for a walk, hike or just spontaneously do an activity that appeals to both of us.
