I am a gentleman first and foremost that is why I am being honest from the start. I have always been a History/Poly-Sci geek I am constantly studying it in the form of books, film and on line. I also like to cook so if you are brave, I do not mind cooking every now and then. I must admit, I am not your typical beer drinking sports watching kind of guy. Even though occasionally, I may get together with my male friends to watch a game. However, if it comes down to watching a film or a sports event the film will almost likely win all the time. Politically, I consider myself a “Progressive Democrat” - very liberal and open minded A few people have considered me to be a radical I don't know why? Maybe because they watch fox news!!!!! However, looking at me you would never think of me being that way.
In my attempts to become more socially conscience, I have chosen to make a few sacrifices in my life. One thing I have done was to scale back my life. I have done the so-called “American Dream” (really a fairytale) thing. When I was married and I found it to be over rated, so if you have dreams of the house in the suburbs I am probably not the guy for you. I am most likely going to be a life long New Yorker, if I do leave New York, it will most likely be to another country. I do drive, however it is usually when it is worth my while, such as driving out of state or out to one of the premium outlet shopping centers (Thank God for ZIP CAR!!!!) .Yes I can be a shop-a-holic, even though I strive to be socially conscience, I do like to live well. I love my cognac, cigars and red meat. I just do not want gas and chemicals in them. And, I do not support evil empires like WALMART, STARBUCKS and MOST RESTAURANT CHAINS!!!!! It's a huge reason why I left suburbia. In short, I am living more like a European - reading more, listening to more Jazz and drinking more wine.
If you are open to this, by all means, please respond.
