About Me

Earned my degrees from Stanford, and am now attending Graduate school back east. Contemplating my future, to decide where and how I would like to spend the rest of my life. Moreover, after spending the better part of my life away at boarding schools, I felt that Myspace could afford me the opportunity to interact with a wide variety of individuals who could serve to expand my somewhat limited perspectives, and in the process possibly become friends.As for my interests, I have developed a passion for Art particularly painting and I hope to peruse that study in the short term. Additionally, I have always been an athletic individual, enjoying Swimming and Tennis in particular. I appreciate the excitement of competition as well as the exhilaration and fulfillment of performance, and hold the sincere belief that physical fitness is a vital part of ones self-expression and esteem yet that it should not dominate ones existence. To that end, it is my sincere hope that most individuals whom I encounter would not consider me as intellectually shallow by virtue of appearance, but see me as an enlightened well rounded individual more interested in understanding their thoughts then propagating my own.

My Interests

Painting and Drawing, Art History, Drama (only on stage!!!), History, Swimming, Tennis, Sailing

I'd like to meet:

It has been my experience that most relationships are fundamentally based upon whom the person you share them with is as an individual, combined with the degree of trust you share in one another. I see that individual as someone whom I respected, admired, and trusted with the same esteem that they held for me and our friendship regardless of gender. In my circumstances, though I have dated women, I have had many of my most intense and enduring relationships with men, close friends secure enough in themselves and me to share emotions at the most intimate of levels. I believe that one's sexuality is neither totally straight nor gay, but rather encompass a wide range of motivations and fulfillment’s that predominantly include one sex, the other, or both to various degrees. To be sure, physical attraction is a dominant force, however I feel that respect, admiration, intellect, and friendship should all serve to endure it. This forum seems an ideal place to either exercise my theories or by shared council through the experiences of new friends, develop new insights upon others and myself.
