How would you describe yourself?
Born and raised in the east end of London, England. I moved to New York about twelve years ago but I go back to England and visit Ireland as often as I can to see family. I'm truly a city boy and suspect I always will be but I love the countryside, the more rugged the better. I've been divorced for a couple years now and have been mainly focused on work.
I'm as awed by the NY skyline today as I was the first time I came here. I like restaurants with a bit of elbow room and not too bright, same with bars. I love spicy food, szechaun for example and I much prefer cocktails to beer. I live in Long Island City in a loft I've had for years, I got very lucky. It has a spare bedroom and I've been asked recently why I don't rent it to a roommate but I just can't see myself having a roommate now I'm in my late 30's.
I love music, can't live without it. It's what I do, I buy/sell records. I mainly collect ska and reggae from the 60's up to 80's but I listen to a wide variety of stuff from 50's jazz to new R&B, hip hop tribal house etc.
I'll admit I've looked at match and now here but I've never once actually met up with anyone this way and it seems a bit strange. What is it about the city that makes it so hard to meet people? I think it's partly a catch 22 situation. If a random stranger talks to a girl on the street because he's attracted to her she may not like the idea that this guy tries to pick up girls on the street. If you meet a girl in a bar you may think of her as a girl who picks up guys in bars, heheh.

What Am I Looking For? Well I avoid trying to come up with an imaginary perfect woman because well all have our faults but there are obviously some things you realize as you get older will just drive you nuts over time. I don't want a party girl or a couch potato, like many I enjoy a great movie at home but like to go out for cocktails a lot also so somewhere in-between.
