I am an easy going, kind hearted man and I enjoy the simply things in life. I do my best to stay healthy, physically and mentally. I love a good hard days work, but I clean up well. I'm shy and reserved until you get to know me, then look out! (smile) I truly love laughter, smiles and fun. However; I'm very compassionate, considerate, forgiving, patient, sensitive and tolerant, to a fault at times. I adore my family, the love and happy time spent with them is worth more than words can say. I am a hopeless romantic and I seek romance and passion that stirs my soul. I do not judge a person by a degree or financial status. I don't need or want to be impressed by who you know or where you've been. I want to know the real you and what makes you tick, what makes your heart skip a beat, what is it that stirs your soul. I won't write a multitude of words to impress. If you are out there, you'll know and you won't be satisfied reading about me. I am looking for lady that can comprehend , I seek a genuine partner for a serious relationship that will turn something meaningful. It is very easy to find people who will wander into your life, play various games that ultimately are self-interest based and who will get scared away for various different reasons. I am looking for a peer and that does not mean academic or otherwise I am talking about a real human being who from his free choice after having gotten to know me, can think and feel with heart and mind that our paths should be together and not separate that I feel likewise to his. A woman with a good heart and a brave personality. A sometimes stubborn, often thoughtful woman who puts a great deal of effort in for no other reason then he feels that this is the right thing to do and enjoys being this way. A woman who is affectionate and playful and not manipulative nor exploitive. We are both responsible for our own actions and decisions. I won't chase you and I won't tell you how to live your life. I do not seek a relationship that is ignorant of marriage. I am not your boss and I am not your slave I am your partner. once again i am seeking a serious long term relationship and more. Someone special to capture my heart and knows how to handle it with care, one who will cherish me and be willing to share life's greatest joys and sorrows
