My one tattoo says lots about me: "Tattoo!" Yep, that's my humor: quite intact -- even though life threw me a major curveball (a close encounter with a speeding drunk driver). I turned that around to focus on positives and share the wisdom I felt. Wrote a book for teens about inner strength. Writing another book now about the difference between ai and heart.
I love real conversation. I am always gentle. Honest. Creative. Youthful.

I’m emotionally mature (therapy for 11+ years) and able to communicate about my emotions. Ready for the real deal.
I’m a musician (employed full time, don’t worry 🤓) who’s on the taller side of 5’11” and loves the outdoors, the indoors, great books, and making people laugh.

I am a committed, compassionate, and caring man. I am a patient listener and a deep and authentic sharer.
The most important three things to me are God, love, and family, in both this world and the world to come. I profoundly believe that with the right person marriage can be a fortress of well-being.
I have been vegetarian for 35 years, vegan for 30 years. I am a man of deep convictions, self-disciplined, trustworthy, and reliable.
I have an undergraduate degree in mathematics and a graduate degree in computer science. Also, I went to medical school, but withdrew during my clinical rotations because of traumatic circumstances.
I live alone in the Blue Ridge Mountains of southern Virginia with my three small dogs, Faith and her two sons Gentle and Courage (see picture). I teach in human transformation and healing.
I love to sing, dance, and run in the mountains. I am romantic and affectionate. I love with my whole heart ❤️

I have been a vegetarian for several years. I love outdoor activities especially during the summer such as hiking and swimming. Traveling is also one of my interests. I have traveled to South America, Mexico, Germany, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Lichtenstein and Turks and Caicos. I also enjoy seeing movies, reading books, going to concerts and going to museums.
With a bachelor's degree in biological sciences, I worked at first as a lab technician in an environmental lab. Eventually, I received my nursing degree and now work at a local teaching hospital.
I am very family oriented. I try to respect and get along with my parents.

I run an admin business working in music , film and photography.
I also write songs , sing and play acoustic guitar and organise concerts. I'm fairly sociable, love travelling , and tend to view the world as a place that is full of friends that I haven't met yet, and think that there are quite a lot of good people out there. I think that I am a fairly optimistic person , and I think that the feeling you get when you have found somebody you feel really close to is just about the best thing there is !

In theory, I practice presence / mindfulness and try to avoid speaking through ego. In reality, I'm outwardly a normal human being, totally not perfect, and I have my unconscious moments, too.
It would be great to find someone who shares a similar desire to be more conscious and is willing to both give and take helpful reminders when we start to slip up. Finding someone truly interested in this has been rather difficult for me. It is something I have had a hard time finding through traditional dating sites, so hoping to have better luck here.
I'm conscious of my physical desire for a partner and I'm following it with as much awareness as I can. I want to try to provide you with the masculinity that you desire from my side of a partnership while I keep from slipping into unconsciously identifying as a "side."
Some hobbies: backpacking, fermenting, movies, music, making smoothies and kale chips, day hikes, running, board/video games, and math/physics. I have a ton of appreciation of film, classical music, game design, and animation. I also really enjoy books, audiobooks, graphic novels and live performances. My creative outlets are through photography, video game development, philosophy, and, during the pandemic, I began experimenting with electronica. I'd love to meet someone with a couple similar interests, yet allowing space to pursue our own interests where they differ.
I'm not into labels, but my personality type was most recently INFP-A (MBTI), 5w4 (enneagram). Love-language was "physical touch" followed closely by "quality time."
I really like road trips, nature preserves, national parks, and occasional travel. Right now I'm a bit of a homebody, but I absolutely crave occasional social interaction. Usually, I much prefer to stay in and cook meals and watch a movie / Netflix / play something (alone or together) rather than go out to dinner, but I enjoy going to the movies, classical music, opera, and other live performances.
During the pandemic, I ran at least 10k every single day to avoid lockdown boredom in the steep Santa Cruz Mountains. Although I've reduced that due to repetitive injury, I care a lot about my health and hope you care about your health, too! I prefer to use natural healing for physical/mental health -- holistic medicine, diet, exercise, supplements, and meditation/present-mindedness to ease stress. I'm not on board with some pharmaceuticals used in conventional medicine that only treat symptoms!

仙丹难治没良心。"Even a mythical elixir cannot cure heartless people." [But we should still give them the opportunity to cure themselves]
Strive to live a simple, nonmaterialistic, meaningful, and purposeful life. I'm a Luddite at heart, reminiscing about the halcyon days when we weren't overdependent on technology. I embrace sechel, not artificial intelligence, and modesty, not social media. 不患莫己知,求为可知也。"Don't fret about not being well-known; instead, strive to be worthy of being known" (Analects, book 4, verse 14). Jewish ideals inform and guide in all aspects of life. These include honesty and evenhandedness, including not saying anything essentially true but meant to mislead, often by controlling the narrative (as in PR, marketing/sales, the media, e.g.); not hurting people's feelings or saying negative things about them; giving others the benefit of the doubt and the opportunity to do the right thing; having a higher purpose in life, including work; and learning for the sake of learning, including from everyone! But people with similar values come from many paths in life, the ultimate expression of which is being a mensch or, as Confucius termed it, a junzi, someone who sets an example through his or her actions, which speak louder than words.
Enjoy hiking, being in nature, lizard-watching, learning, artistic creativity, and dry and waggish humor (but not sarcasm). Introverted and sometimes lost in thought, but hopefully thoughtful in more ways than one! Look for ways to help others while avoiding self-serving feelings like validation and pride. Adventurous but also risk-averse.
I live in the desert, which teaches humility, not only because we are dwarfed by the majestic mountains and the expansive valleys but also because we are humbled by the miraculous, mind-blowing adaptations that allow life in all its forms to not merely survive but thrive in the most challenging of environments. Nature can be our teacher and help us improve our character traits.
I stopped practicing clinical medicine 30 years ago when it was no longer possible to do so ethically. My magnum opus has been the definitive treatise on Jewish medicine, a moral, integrated philosophy and system of practice, free of self-interest, the cure for the present degenerate system.
And now, for the final course, mon petit chou, my sweet, here is your fortune cookie: 好话不在多,几句成知己。"Good-hearted words need not be many; just a few can make a close friend."
Headshot is from July, 2023.

I run 4 half-marathons a week. Can you keep up? (worry not-that's why the gods gave us bicycles!) The point is, I've energy & ambition, do you? Middle age isn't time to slow down but to accomplish lots with our acquired wisdom while having quality fun & meaningful relationships with each other, the earth, and our spirituality
Bedridden by an accident for 2007, neurologists sentenced me to crutches for life. Their bleak prognosis to proposed spinal surgery was unacceptable! My response: diet, meditation, & 14-hour days of physical therapy. I can now walk all day, and run for hours. This characterizes my purpose, perseverance, & hard work -qualities I pledge to the longevity of our relationship and your happiness
You of course needn't run marathons, but please be ambitious and committed to active youthful habits. Born in the 50s I’m now saying bye to my 50s but not to the activities & energy of past decades. You shouldn’t be too much older or younger than I, and you should burn to SHARE and nurture a fit lifestyle
I'm a:
~musician/composer
~bilingual repatriated expat (temporarily I hope)
~writer, translator & linguist
~entrepreneur
~longtime follower of alternative medicine/nutrition
~builder, remodeler, repairman
~broken-hearted & betrayed, BUT optimistic & loving
~convalescing fitness & health buff
~teacher
~spiritually perseverant & inquisitive
~software programmer
~above all: a hopeless romantic & idealist
How do I add meaning to the oft-asked "What am I/what do I do?" I'm at a crossroads. Past success at these life-styles bless me with the freedom to now choose which, if any, I wish to resume. I can't simultaneously practice them all, so help me choose! Would you rather live with a translator or a farmer? A house builder or an intellectual? A musician or a monk? Mix & match!
Bio:
~Pacific Northwest childhood, infatuated with arts, crafts, building, & nature
~adolescence conquering the wilds of Canada, living self-sufficiently off the land (as a vegan!)
~a decade in Mexico where I taught languages & music and started medical studies (Western AND alternative) but married/had kids instead of finishing
~a decade slaving for (but enamored with) the software industry in WA & Europe, excelling through the 90s dot-com bonanza
~and now I'm a decade into life as a dumped lover & single-parent temporarily retrenching/retiring/retreating to sedentary small-town life & nature to finish raising my college-bound kids & restore a 100 year old Victorian

Happy, whole, open-minded, heart-based, hippie-ish, affectionate, self-confident, slightly kinky guy with lots of love to share. Very easy-going, non-judgmental American transplant to Ireland (dual citizenship), so I will always be an outsider/blow-in.
A kind-hearted and very liberal free-spirit, I find great beauty in life and also laugh a lot! A rich and fulfilling sex life is important to me as a way of communication and connection. I like to touch and be touched by those I love.
Currently living a rather low-key, rural life in a beautiful location, alone in a big house with one feline who chooses to be with me.
Reach out and say hello!

Hello veg friends!
Long time vegan living with a couple rescue guinea pigs in the DMV area. After around twenty years in the IT sector, I am transitioning to law. So I have a job as a paralegal but it's not too demanding and gives me some free time. As an introvert, I've found myself a bit a of a homebody over the past few years. Though I enjoy getting vegan food at various places in the DMV, primarily VA, like Loving Hut, Sunflower, and Chay Vegetarian.
I'm a lefty and will certainly get along with other people who are or lean left. I don't believe that animals are "things" and should have as much rights as people. I was at the march for Sanity, I've seen Colbert live, and willing to go to the occasional protest.
Some video games I'm playing include Final Fantasy 14, Warframe, and Elden Ring. I'm not great, but good enough to do some end game content. Maybe you could introduce me to a game or play with me sometime? It's a nice way to relax a bit.

I have paid my dues, climbed the ladder, slayed a few dragons, and generally built a life of honor and distinction. Now it's time to relax and enjoy the finer things in life. Life would be a really sweet gig if I had a partner in crime to share in all the daily joys and challenges. Could it be you? Send me a note of interest and let's find out.

I love writing, biking, walking, hiking, doing Taichi, preparing a nutritious meal, gardening, sewing, and observing nature. I try to live with mindfulness. I like to live a simple, yet meaningful life. I would like to develop my fullest potential in this lifetime and be able to contribute to the world ...
I wrote the following article on September 10, 2025, at 12:22 PM
>>> Your emotions determine your happiness, and
Your happiness determines your life.
Since my best friend, Dougald, left this world on June 28th this year,
My sadness hasn't diminished even a single day.
But the times of sadness have gradually decreased.
Most of us have feelings.
When we're sad, we don't need to resist it,
But rather understand why we're sad.
This experience of losing a dear friend
Has made me feel immense regret for his short life!
Because he was such a kind person!
Many say that for every effect, there's a cause.
Perhaps his early passing was due to this causal relationship.
I understand very well how the law of attraction works.
When you're happy,
The vibration you emit attracts things related to happiness.
When you're sad, you attract similar things that make you sad.
When you're angry, you attract similar things that make you angry.
... and so on.
So, to have a fulfilling life, the vibration you emit is crucial!
You can be sad, but don't let it persist for too long.
Learn how to transform sadness into strength.
When you're feeling down, realize that
Most people don't know how to control their emotions.
If you could handle it with a relaxed attitude, they wouldn't affect you.
Impermanence is a normal part of life; there's no need to lament it.
The important thing is to accept impermanence and strive to do what you love.
It will make you want to live a more meaningful, fulfilling, and joyful life!

I have soft spot in my heart for animals. I’m into spending time with animals whether it’s hiking, cooking, watching the natural world or a movie. I like swimming, bowling, bicycling, volleyball and gardening. Most my free time is spent either campaigning for animal causes, caring for animals, keeping connected with friends, writing, or attending lectures on topics which range from astrophysics to inner peace. The most enjoyable moments of my life are spent with friends in laughter. I am a scientist, an engineer, an educator, a writer, and a politically active person. I am a man who is confident in my abilities, yet I am humbled by all who touch my life.
