I am an energetic, ambitious, open-minded and conscientious Black male seeking a compatible female who embraces life with passion, exuberance, inquisitiveness, determination and a candid willingness to explore challenging opportunities with self-confidence. The opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations and possessing a critical mind are required assets. Recognizing that I'm a pragmatist with a realist perspective on life, I would like to encounter a complementary partner whose motivation is not governed or focused solely on materialism, but rather the desire to acquire life-long acquisitions through sheer persistence, hard work and an overall comprehension that long term achievements are best appreciated through the promotion of honesty, integrity and a well rooted moral foundation. A tall order indeed, but undoubtedly attainable with the appropriate soulmate.

Ideally, my first date would involve a serene atmosphere that would generate a fruitful conversation of variable topics. A simple dinner or a casual walk, which would foster effective dialogue with my date would be my essential and principal objective. Our first encounter is intended to construct a purposeful medium that allows the two of us to explore each other's interests, potential inhibitions and whether compatibility is attainable. My intention is not to dominate our first meeting; instead, the aim is to generate a mutual comfort level and to avert unwanted resistance or tension. I want my date to be absorbed at the very epicentre of our communication without the unnecessary tactic to impress her. I just want to keep it "real" and leave a favourable as well as positive impact with this individual. Realizing that honesty is a pivotal by-product to the successful development of a mature relationship, I would like my date to deduce from our encounter the authenticity of who I am, what I represent and what makes me tick. Additionally, my constant goal is to be an attentive listener so that I may formulate a clear and unwavering perception of the person who I am endeavouring to explore and understand.
