In His Own Words
About him
I am an intelligent, sensitive, attentive,passionate, complicated man.I manage to run a small, unusual analytical consulting firm, be a transatlantic single parent of two unusually bright daughters, keep a garden and a house full of orchids,occasionally review crime fiction on Radio 4, maintain an active social life, equally at home in jeans or a dinner jacket, and pursue my loves of reading, music (principally but not exclusively solo piano of all genres), cooking, red wine and architecture and get to the sea whenever I can, but would rather do it with a true partner. I want to turn from business writing back to more creative forms over the next few years. I am quite good with animals and children and have an open mind as regards both. I am considered to be unusually energetic but, when emotionally engaged, can relax. I am also thought to have an extraordinarily sharp sense of humour.I tend to accept others as they are and hope for the same in return.
About his ideal match
Intelligence, in its broadest sense -intellectual, perceptual, emotional -is important. A strong curiosity goes with that. Expression is just as important - I would want to be with someone who interacts with others and expects the same. Visual appearance is not so critical - one finds that "looks" can be a poor basis for founding a relationship - but the aesthetics of all five senses are important - for me, perhaps the voice most of all.
The ideal woman would look forward in life rather than backward, still be growing and need to grow, a risk-taker who respects that in others, and someone who believes that emotions drive relationships rather than the reverse. Passion - of all kinds, is very important - I am hopeless with passive people. Having tried to sound profound, I must admit that there really are no valid generalisations - if it works, it works. We spend too much time looking for reasons.
