Seeking Bi(?) Woman for Loving Family Peace, Justice, Family, & Fun Seeking: A sensitive woman who wants children, and would value the love, support and stimulation of a three-parent family.

Do you long to be appreciated for what you wish to give?

We seek a sensitive, single woman (or potentially a female couple) who loves/wants children and would value the additional love, support, stimulation and devotion that we offer.   We want a home full of wonderful children and adults, creativity, diversity and fun.  Emotional intimacy is more important to us than physical intimacy, although we love physical intimacy too!  (Sometimes kinky, sometimes not.)  For us, physical intimacy is based on emotional intimacy.  In the lingo of polyamory we are "polyfidelitous". (We are not interested in "outside" sexual relationships.) We're very attachment-oriented.  We want a relationship based on shared values, smooth communication and lasting devotion.  In short, we want more family!   We had been thinking that a bisexual woman may work best, but straight or lesbian could work also, since what matters most is that values and personalities mesh well.

We are M & D, a bi woman and a straight man, both 51:

M (left) is currently a stay-at-home mommy, having happily left the corporate world when we moved here from Philadelphia.  She is bright, sensitive and shy, and especially loves Latin American novelists. D (right) is a PhD computer nerd and ex-musician, with an eye for photography. He is creative, diverse, perceptive, passionate, and focused.

We are thoughtful, curious and caring. We recycle, floss our teeth, and respect our neighbors and elders. We don't drink, smoke or watch TV.  We are health conscious and mostly vegetarian, but not dogmatic, trendy or superstitious about it.   We are also proud new parents of adorable twin boys.

We strongly support peace, human rights and environmental organizations. (Here are a photo journal that D made of a trip to Guatemala and an article about D's parents that reflect some of our values.)  We have produced and distributed over 10,000  bumper stickers (available free on our other Web site) in an effort to stop Bush's invasion of Iraq.  We also host a monthly "Peace Potluck" letter writing dinner at our home.  We are also active in support of clean air rights / smoke-free air.  Here is a news photo of us attending the signing of the Massachusetts smoke-Free workplace law.

We also like hosting fun or creative events. For example, for one event we temporarily converted the first floor of our house into an art gallary and hosted an show of a friend's photography. Each autumn we have a Basil Harvest / Pesto Making Party with our friends and housemates. Last fall we made 92 quarts of pesto! (Yes, we still have some in the freezer.) Here are snapshots from those events. We also love traveling (see countries visited). We haven't traveled much lately, since having children, but we still have friends we made years ago in other countries. But mostly, we like simple things, such as talking, reading (especially M), household and creative projects (especially D), or making dinner together with housemates or friends. Although we love our new home in the Boston area (a big old Victorian house), we know that our family comes first, so we are willing to relocate anywhere if necessary. We are informal and open about meeting new people, and we prefer to meet in person as soon as practical, because it really helps in making someone seem "real".

We met indirectly on match.com through M's mother nine years ago -- a funny story in itself, which we'll tell you sometime. Here is an excerpt from D's original match.com ad:

"[What do I like?] . . . I love fresh homemade bread, pasta, and a good greek salad with fresh, real tomatoes (not the plastic things you get in the supermarket). My best meal ever was eaten on the Greek island of Ithaca. There were four of us, and it was the only place to eat on the island, so you basically took whatever they made that day. And they made everything themselves. Freshly baked bread, maybe some mousaka, fresh watermelon that was grown right there on the island and sold by this crazy kid who walked around yelling "Karpoozi, karpoozi, karpoozi!" (Watermelon, watermelon, watermelon!) at the top of his lungs, though the only people around were us four tourists. All of the vegetables in the salad were picked fresh from right there on the island. It was wonderful. We had Oranginas to drink, and watermelon for dessert. And the total bill for the four of us was about $10. But that was 10 years ago. (There are other things I like, of course. That just happened to be the first thing that popped into my head.) . . . ."

So we're hoping the Web can again help us find love. And at some point in the future, we hope to tell the story of how we met you! Please write! Life is short! We reply to all inquiries. (That's just the way we are.) Sincerely, M & D Email: morefamily _at_ yahoo _dot_ com .
