Married to My Career

Here I am, in mid-life already, and wondering where the river of time has carried me. I'm not sure I even care about dating again. All I know is that I have had my nose totally to the grindstone to make my media production company successful. (Try being an artist in this economy! Oy!) At the recommendation of a close friend who thinks I don't have a social life (outside of networking for business), I am testing the waters here without much in the way of expectation. To be honest, I doubt I will ever find a man who will embrace the creative woman. (I haven't in the past 30 years, so why should it be any different now?) But being a writer and an anthropologist, I am game to try new things. So, let's see where this first step takes me...

its tough on you alright, trying to find someone to stand in the corner until you need them, which is the impression given, as your busy career races on, its a matter of choice, really, but you know that already, you have been too busy to give, but now you are ready to take, i greatly fear that one day soon, you will look at a lovely romantic picture, hanging on a wall, and realize that it is just a painting hanging on a wall, and that real life, and true romance, have been sacrificed once again to the demon 'career' i truly wish you luck, i hope you have the courage to change, its 2 way traffic in a relationship.

umm ... sceptic about finding a man who will embrace the creative woman?

Is there anything special about the creative woman compared to the rest of the women?


no i don't think so ... each and ever woman is a case for itself ... have little doubt about that and if we had to classify woman, creativity wouldn't be a category .. so that sentence is flawed big time according to me ...

Idea,
You wrote that you have been dedicated to your career for the last 30 years and then write that you doubt that there is a man who will appreciate a creative woman here? You were the one who wasn't available. There are plenty of men who are fascinated by creativity, ( isn't everyone?). It is you that needs to come to the table ready for a relationship. Have fun, this place can get kind of wild!wave

You can always BrainiacDating.com. It is still mostly free and centered in NY with tons of people from your 'area'. Many are in the various sciences. Have a look...

I have always found creativity to be something creative men loved...it was icing on the cake so to speak! Perhaps the problem is elsewhere...as you said, too tied to your career (too busy)? I don't know though, your profile states that you "live for your talent"...no one likes to live as the understudy...I am sure you are great but show them they are as well. cheers

It's never too late... you have built your career, now you need time to relax and enjoy another side of life, hopefully with someone to share it with.
I wish you all the best!!

You see, "Ideagems", I never found a woman who choose a creative man for something more than a friendly relationship. Think for instance about Richard Feynman: he was not an actor, he was maybe the greatest theoretical physicist after Albert Einstein. AND a ver handsome man.
Some young girls were attracted by professor Feynman, but all these stories ended systematically when he started to be himself - simply too smart, for normal persons (women included)...

I think that creative people are rare - but maybe they attract each other...

For 30 years you were looking ONLY in one side of the coin,so what??,only few in your cicle, have put you in a pedestal for your achievements.All those 30 years, your inner self never told you to have a look in the other side of the coin? in otherwords your inner self never told you,that life is realy simple and people make life complicated.Am sure it has, but you thought, oh,oh, NO am too intelligent to have a simple life, complications are more challenging.Stay with your complications then, and don't venture to unknown avenues,you will make other people unhappy.

Correction: Milleu in the above script should have read "millieu". Or maybe "milieu." I must listen to my French cat from the French Cathouse more carefully when she next uses that word.

Miau.
