A friend and lover... That is what I seek, and what I seek to be... what constitutes a successful relationship is really dependent upon the people involved, and it may not always be the same from one pairing to the next... I imagine that it is important
for anyone that I would be involved with to be open and honest, intelligent and insightful, attractive and active, playful and humorous, affectionate and passionate; someone who loves playful banter, human touch, and the savory flavors of life that tempt and tease the pallot, the senses, and the mind... I love the ocean and the outdoors and spend a lot of time in and around the water, and in the mountains as
often as I can get there... but I also love books, movies, theatre, and a great kitchen... make me laugh, and feed me well, and you will win my friendship and
maybe my heart... I'll race you to see if I can amuse you before you do me, and if you don't cook, no problem, I'll cook for you any time you like... I'm open,
affectionate, honest, well-educated, athletic, reasonably attractive, and looking for the same in a partner...

Something casual that gives us a chance to talk and get to know each other...
