Hi I'm Fred, a straight male interested in meeting an attractive woman, who is also interested in a long term relationship. My two previous ones were both over 15 years. I am an emotionally available artist. I enjoy meeting different women and sitting over coffee and talking either in a coffee shop or at a restaurant over a meal. I enjoy finding out about their lives. I live walking distance from The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and visit it a several times a month. I completed a MA in art education, but quickly discovered I was not cut out to be a teacher. I spent several years as the manager of a chocolate factory in the warehouse district of Manhattan. Lately I've been enjoying retirement and doing as much pottery as possible at Greenwich House Pottery on Jones Street in the West Village.

I'm interested in spending the next 30 years or so with a loving, caring, intelligent woman, and the beauty we can bring to each others lives. I'm also giving back as much energy and exprience as possible to the city which I love. I volunteering as a guide in Central Park several mornings a week. I've been very fortunate in my experiences and relationships, and hopefully I'm not going to be done for a long time.

I'm pretty happy with what I've accomplished in my life so far

You have an interest in the arts, are willing to take a risk on the rest of your life, enjoy walking and being with a creative man who has a high energy level.
