God, I hope so. lol.
What do you think? Is this possible, or is this an oxymoron?

Thanks, everyone, for your very enlightening and even the not-so-enlightening answers. It's all food for thought.
But could you all please do me one big favor: Stop calling me dear, sweetie, or any of those other sickeningly sweet (lol) epithets. Call me by my username (CosmicMuse) or my nickname (Indi). Thank you very much.
Peace.

Psyengine: Looks we struck a nerve here with you. This is indeed your issue being laid to bare in your answer, hidden beneath all that gorgeous psychological and sociological analysis. Do not mistake me for a child or a fool. This was an honest question, albeit humorous. Take it easy. Peace to you. And next time, if there be a next time, try to just answer the question if you can. There is a time and a place for psychoanalysis. I don't think this was the time or the place.

Dear Indi,
Yes is it is possible for you to find that kind of man you are looking for. You will have to look under lots of rocks and kiss a lot of frogs, but he is there. I know you from the way you type on Y/A. You are a caring, devoted, educated, artistic person who feels all alone in the world. You have some friends in cyber space (I hope I am included in that bunch). You also have a lots of people who you know in real life. I think the problem you have is the same one my older daughter has. She is 35 and single, never married. I am sure she has set the bar to high. But at the same time I don't want it set to low. We get along great, which may be part of her problem, she may want a man like me. I am one of a kind. She needs and so do you to find the man that simply makes you smile. If he can make you smile everything else will fall into place. Ronnie says there are two rules a woman should follow when it comes to marriage. One, never marry a man who is prettier than you. Two, find a man who makes you laugh. She is one heck of a lot prettier than I will ever be and and I try as hard as I can to make her happy. I even can make her laugh on days when I am totally depressed. It is hard but she is worth it to me.
As far as equals go, we are not two under one roof, we are one under the same roof. We discuss everything. The kids, the grandkids, the sterling silverwear she wants on eBay, my 3rd lcd tv, what we go shopping for, we whenever possible go together to the store. We can be in different rooms all evening and have a great time together. Without her I am incomplete. When I was in the Air Force, I was required to go on trips for weeks at a time. Other guys went hunting for temporary wives. I stayed in my room either reading or watching tv. I married her because she was the missing part of my life. I am still married to her because she is now a true part of me and my lifeline.
Hope this helps a little.
Your friend
Bill

Many unlikely things are possible and many of the qualities are subject to individual phenomena. Is reality to fit the ideal or is the ideal to fit reality. I think even headed intimacy requires the possibility of simple friendship from an early age before the person is twisted in religious terror and stereotype training (like Asama bin Laden [can you believe Osama isn't their freakin dictionary]) and yet be realistic. Even atheists can be unrealistic and ideological simpletons )(fanatic).
Should this concern my self perception or only yours.
Be childlike, not childish.

Of course It's possible. I don't really know what to say to qualify this statement,apart from, I am and I do.
In fact I'd go further and say, I feel that the female of the species is generally mentally stronger than the male.
Please don't shoot me guys!

Odds are, you have met them, but didnt give them the time of day. Instead, you frequently chose the @$$hole.

Possible but it's probably easier to find "Bigfoot" or the "Abominable Snowman."

Possible sweety but not probable! It seems like if they are strong they have to prove how strong!
