In their own words

educated, open-minded man seeking woman of intelligence and substance

Raised in London and Los Angeles, but not your typical Tehrangeles type. Actually, I never really had any Iranian friends growing up, since my family was pretty assimilated. And believe it or not, I've never dated an Iranian before! Not quite sure what to expect of this site, but very open to whatever comes along. I live in Philadelphia, which is not exactly swarming with Iranians, but I'm not interested in penpals or people who live more than 25 miles from here. Looking for real-world, real-life romance. As for work, I'm a writer. And yes, I really do make a living doing this. I own my own home, and have a steady income, etc. (Translation: not some deadbeat creative type). Basically just a decent human being looking for the same!

Insights
How important is someone's physical appearance to you?
I would be lying if I said it wasn't. But this doesn't mean I'm into superficial women. In fact, what I find sexy is subtlety, confidence, natural beauty. Not really into the type of girl who wears a ton of make-up. There's nothing sexier than a woman who looks hot in jeans and a t-shirt.
What do your friends like about you most?
loyalty, honesty, integrity, insight
What gets on your nerves?
My own flaws when I see them in other people. Jung calls this the shadow. I think this is an important insight to have, and I don't have much time for people who project their issues outward and don't look within.
What is the most important thing in a relationship?
honesty, honesty, honesty
What's the best age to get married?
when the time is right.
What turns you off?
people who try too hard, fakeness of any kind
What turns you on?
ha, no way I'm revealing that here!
