The dating deets
New and improved! Now with words! (Ok, lots of words - if you like the words, let's meet. If not, swipe along).
SMSP: Seeking Miss Smarty Pants, someone who can take my everything on a run for its money.
You aren't on these dating things to settle, nor to compromise. We're looking for the same thing - smart, silly, sensual, sexy, sapiosexual, sweet, scintillatingly irreverent, with emotional intelligence and the love/ability for spontaneous vacations for the win!
We've been around the block, we know what we're looking for, and less ain't gonna cut it!
We're looking for a deeply connected friendship first (or hell, to just freaking fall stupid-in-love - wouldn't that be fun?) , that has the potential to blossom into the end all-be all, knock-down, drag-em-out, awesomest coupling that's ever been put pen to paper!
One of the key drivers for human emotion and vulnerability is the search for connection, ja? Well, let's just skip the preconceptions about dating and just connect! Worst that happens is that we meet a rockin' kindred soul.

I suppose I should use some space to hit the basic housekeeping questions:
- I's a growed-ass man, you's a growed-ass woman.
- fiscally moderate, socially liberal, thoroughly irreverent.
- Job/finances: Naturopathic doctor. I do well enough to work 3.5 days per week and take more vacations than any one person should.
- Living situation: Rent 2 blocks off the beach, in Hermosa. Perhaps I'll buy inland by a few miles in a few years, but I love living here for now.
- Relationships: Historically, 1-7 years long, usually with healthy gaps between. Married for a hot second a decade ago. Friends with most old flames. No crazy ex's in the picture. I'm good at this - I just need the right dance partner.
- Communication: Big on it, I've spent more than a hot second contemplating my belly button, and pondering what living with integrity means. As much as possible, I say what I mean, mean what I say and try to have my actions reflect those pretty damned closely. If you ask me a question, you're likely to get a considered, open, honest, potentially vulnerable answer.... or clown music and a dancing monkey.
- Food: All the things! I eat healthy-ish much of the time, but I love a good Pinot Noir and will rarely turn down anything, with the exception of cruddy fast food. I dig cooking, and doing the kitchen dance with you.
- Kids: I have a fantastic 23 year old son going to Uni in Oregon, and I'm not looking to make new little ones myself. Your kids over 6yo are great, though.
- Religion: Not much of a thing for me. I do all the yoga's at times, and think that brene brown is the shit
- Car: Yes. And if you're nice, maybe she'll go topless.
- Non-attachment to outcomes: Yup. I'm open to whatever manifests.
- Global Entry: Yes!

A few things that I've discovered over the years that I don't mesh well with are folks that don't resonate with this here laundry list.
Compulsive traveler, belly-button-self-growth-contemplatin', curious, questioning, inspired (I find curiosity incredibly alluring), unafraid of PDA, unafraid of feeling the feels and talking the talks, non-anxiety-ridden, able to fight cleanly and lovingly, eat without neurosis, enough means and freedom to travel to Europe with a months notice, ridiculous sense humor, appreciation of cards against humanity.
- anyone that isn't grinning at this point. really. If you're not grinning, move along.
