Just out here looking for a partner in crime...someone who is honest, caring and loves to be outdoors (or a night at home-everyone needs at least one night to veg!)...someone who knows how to listen,....knows how to "fight fair"....someone with good family values....has to be a dog lover....and taller then me...

Must love to travel- I am the type of person who would have a bag packed for you- tell you to get in the car sit back shut up and hold on....(I know that Id love it if it were done for me!!) I go to Europe often to visit family so travel is important to me! Would love to curl up next to someone special for a long plane ride then...well....Id rather that then the drooler that I might have to sit next to!

I love baseball and hockey....waiting for someone to teach me all about football! Im a Yankees/Devils fan....not because I have to but bc I love them!! Minor league games are great too!!! SI Yankees and Trenton thunders/devils!

Kids...tough topic here for many men!! I guess you should know that I want kids (eventually-with Mr. Right of course)...Id like to experience having children with someone who hasnt...I can explain more on that if need be.

No mental illness!!!! Please! lol...so if youre on medication instead of seeing a counselor to help you, take care of you first before you contact me! Its just fair for you and me...

I have a job that I love- I work with children. If you need more detail on that...ask! :)

Edumicated! Yes that would be nice! My BA is from NC and my MA is from NJ... (again, I travel to NC alot to see friends- I should just buy a beach house down there)

I like to go to wine tastings. By far the best was in NC! (So far!) beer tastings are fun too!

I love to fish and hunt...I was raised that way....camping is a must every summer. Family traditions!! An awesome first date would be a shooting range or put on a boat fishing...lol...I know...Im just odd!!! I would love to practice more!!! Ya up for it?

Must like dogs...I have 2 Great Danes and I volunteer/foster them...we walk alot!!! Ive started getting back into shape this way and its funny when we go for our walks... me and two danes leading the way! My 2 year old dane is pet therapy dog so we go visit the childrens hospitals and nursing homes...it feels good leaving these places with everyone smiling! Its the little things in life that matter!!!!

First things I notice about you (of course its the physical that we all see first) are your eyes, smile, arms and height...everything else is just extras!!! ;) Emotionally, I would like to have someone who knows that there are times that I would want to go out with friends and there are times that Id want to be with the person Im dating. Im not a clingy person but there are days where it would just be nice to come home, curl up in someones arms and just feel safe without saying anything.

I attend church on a regular basis...I know that I cannot date an athiest...sorry! No Im not a "holy roller" either.

I tend to be sarcastic...ok so I am sarcastic... I think its an art to a point! If you can dish it, please be able to take it as well. I like to smile and laugh...one of my students (1st grader) told me that I had wrinkles...I wanted to crawl in a hole...he then told me they were the "good" kind of wrinkles...they are "smile wrinkles". I felt a little better but really?!?!? Wrinkles...Im not that old!!! lol Its the little things that make me smile...the thoughtfulness that goes into it...

Ohhh and a good kisser! Passion is a must!! If you are not a passionate kisser- in my experience youre not a passionate person.

Please dont contact me if youve been in jail, have a DWI/DUI, have different kids by different women, if your backed up on your child support...blah blah blah....Ive managed to make it to my age without having the above!

I just want to meet a nice guy that my friends want, my parents like and I can't keep my hands off of. Is that too much to ask for???

Now its up to you!

Im very easy going- from a hockey game or baseball game to sitting on the beach with a bottle of wine...makes no difference...its the conversation that matters to me. Its all about the communication!!! Do guys know how to do that?!?!? Im starting to wonder!
