"Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow; don’t walk behind me, I may not lead; Walk beside me, and just be my friend." - Albert Camus

Being an independent person, I enjoy the company of others who have their own lives/careers and can think for themselves but are looking to share and experience life with a loving partner.

Regarding Me: WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET!

I do not enjoy the happy hour scene but love good dining (sushi, cheeseburger, seafood and/or steak), people watching, attending plays/concerts at The Kravis Center for the Performing Arts and The Maltz Jupiter Theater, sports in person and on TV, exercising and just hanging out. I am a suit and tie guy during the week that would rather be in shorts and a golf shirt.

I have two wonderful kids; my son is a sophomore at University of Central FL. My daughter is senior in high school and lives 10 minutes away with her mother. Bragging about my children, both of them are GREAT kids, honor students and my daughter is on the High School Varsity Lacrosse Team. As you can tell, my kids are a MAJOR part of my life. I also, have 3 cats and had a 10 year-old dog (a whippet), my buddy, who died very unexpectedly in the last year.

Leisure time includes beach, golf, snow skiing in Colorado and traveling to the Bahamas and throughout the U.S.

I am looking for someone who has similar interests and desires to build a friendship that could develop into a loyal and committed lifetime partnership. If you are looking for JUST a free meal and drinks don't respond. Although I have been in FL since 1983 and proud of my success, I am from the Midwest and have Midwest values, have no money and will not play games. I think my last sentence of this profile describes my beliefs.

My pictures were all taken in the last 2 years, but I will update them very soon. Lastly I turned 51 on February 13th. If you respond to me, please no "fudging" on your age or pics.

Lastly, this quote is a favorite of mine and so true; "Time is precious but truth, integrity and loyalty are priceless." - Unknown
