Friends would say I am friendly and intelligent. Shy at first, I'm not afraid to be heard once I get comfortable with someone. Those close to me know a part of me that the public is rarely witness to. In public, I generally exhibit a quiet confidence. I let the goofy little kid in me shine around family and close friends. With the right people around me, I'll let him play in public.

I have two children. My 12-year-old daughter lives with me during the school year and my 14-year-old son stays with me every other weekend. My daughter sees her mom every other weekend and during the summer months. I've had a couple of relationships where we both had our own children and some very different parenting views. It would be wonderful to find a mom who has many of the same views as I have or to find a woman who doesn't have children but is willing to accept my kids and me.

I've been with the same company for the last 16 years. Though I don't hate my job, it's not where I thought I would be today. It pays the bills and allows me to be home every night and weekend. My dream job still awaits...

Some friends would say my social life is nonexistent because I am not often in the bars. I have a social life; it's just that my social interests have expanded. I still like to go to the bars with friends to throw a lot of darts, shoot a little pool, drink a few beers, converse about everything unimportant, and just kick back and unwind. I am just as content to stay at home enjoying a night in with you, or my children, or you and my kids. That balance is probably the biggest reason why I can say I value my social life. It is not my life, just a part of it. As for my broadened interests, I have a growing taste for some culture - theater, museums (art & history), concerts, etc. All are things I could do on my own but are much more rewarding to experience with someone special.

I enjoy just about anything, spring through autumn, that involves being outside - camping, fishing, canoe

I am looking for a woman who is confident with who she is but at the same time cannot wait to get home. She can see the intrinsic beauty in a sunrise/sunset. She can appreciate the raw power of a thunderstorm. In a phrase, she has a passion for life and all of its simple pleasures. She has found a balance between fun and responsibility. She can stimulate my mind. She can give and take constructive criticism. She can make me laugh with her silliness and make me cry with her tenderness. She is honest with others and herself. She can freely communicate her feelings, good or bad. A loving and giving relationship is my ultimate goal and must also be hers. Commitment is something she and I do not fear. Together, we cherish it.
