In a guy, I want him to be a nice and caring person to me and to others. Looks aren’t much of a concern for me, personality is a lot more important. I want to be with a guy who wants to spend as much time with me as he can. And of course I want to be with someone who is loyal and tells the truth. Also, I want to be with a guy who knows they are ready for a commitment and is willing to spend the rest of his life with me.

My name is Jeff, I am 33 years old, and I was born in Bermuda. When I was growing up the island was dangerously homophobic, so after a year of pleading with my parents I spent my 14th birthday at Ridley College in St. Catharines, Ontario. From there I went to King’s College at the University of Western Ontario to spend 4 years working towards a double concentration Psychology/Philosophy degree. After University I bounced around between careers for a while. I was a Hairstylist (trained at George Brown and then Toni & Guy) for about 5 years then a Fashion Stylist (I styled the cover of Chart Magazine and styled runway shows for several of Canada’s top designers) for around 2 years, before moving to San Francisco for 2 years to study Electronic Music Production.

In terms of what I am into, generally I am really just looking for a man that makes me feel comfortable and safe at all times. This individual must possess a certain quality and energy that I will know is what I’m looking for when I’m around that person. I am a empathetic kind of person, I like to treat people as I like to be treated and have no problems putting people in their place if need be (some call this blunt). This is due to my experiences related the job I have worked in a compassion clinic, helping people with all kinds of illnesses.

In my free time, I enjoy volunteering at numerous non-profit organizations in between my healthy obsession for all things Rachel Maddow and brewing new and interesting flavours of kombucha in my kitchen. I am a self taught chef, and I am always either cooking something up in the kitchen of filling the cupboards with canned sauces, jams, peppers or pickles which gets a lot of jokes thrown my way from people with a mouthful of what’s being dished up.

I am a true romantic, passionate and honest guy and so should you. In my opinion, Trust and Respect are the two most beautiful qualities someone has to offer to someone else.
I love to entertain, maybe due to my background. I was trained as a chef, and spent 10 years of my life working in the Luxury Hotel Management field (MBA from Cornell). It also allowed me to travel a lot and live in different countries but I consider Toronto home.
