Beyond that, I am looking for men who are intelligent and dynamic, and are good at reading complex women who don't open themselves up like a book.
If you fit the last two criteria, then I also enjoy men in NYC who love the city, the culture, and the genuine character that can still be found in the native's manner. No pretensions for me.
Those things spoke to my core. The next layer is the part of me that isn't a complete cultural match to Americans. Weird, I know. Having been exposed to European culture, I have a higher sense of politeness. At work, with people in the service industry, and in general. I believe that the most civilized person is the one who strives to be kind or polite to those around him. If you respect others enough to try, then keep reading.
I know I'm placing a tall order, that's why I'm here ... so ready?

I also love traveling, day trips, wine, culture, and a general sense of enjoying life. I don't like people who show off wealth, cars, or anything else. At the same time, I have my jeans & t-shirt days. They are the best clothes for enjoying animals!
To answer the profile question for this site, what I love about Tigger is that he's so sweet and accepting. He purrs at me a lot, and doesn't get mad at me when I take trips without him. He's generally content, and also very devoted.
If all of that so far meets who you are, let me know.
