Off the bat, I'd just like to say that really all I am looking for is a woman who wants to experience and enjoy life to the fullest. Someone not too serious but passionate. I am a passionate person. I enjoy a wide variety of activities and am very open minded. I am an actor/writer living in Manhattan. I love to play sports and I love theatre and film. I have a great family and they mean the world to me. I have a lot of ambitions and goals and have already accomplished many. I am very tired of the "bar scene" and so on so lately I have given up on it.haha. I love to laugh and make others happy. I am spiritual and would love to spend time with someone likeminded. I would love to have a true partner in life, someone to share this amazing experience with. Then on the other hand I also like to kick back and just have a beer and watch the game. I always try to remain positive and encouraging. I am very spontanious and do not have a "fixed" schedule so I tend to make it up as I go along. I would really love to find someone that would like to grow and learn with me while having a great time doing so. There's much more I'm sure I'm forgetting at the moment. Music; Anything Beatles, Dave Matthews, Elliot Smith, Iron and Wine, Lots of Italian and Spanish stuff, Dropkick Murphy's, Elvis Costello, Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Andrea Bocelli, Jakob Dylan, Opera, Classical wow much more, too much to write in this little box. Oh and if your main priorities in life are clubbin, barhoppin, watchin tv etc. we will have NADA in common. Also if your job is in finance that's cool, I have great respect for successful people in all fields and all interest me, I worked on Wall Street for a few years. But, if all you have to talk about is meaningless paper and numbers, once again, we will not be compatable. I am a dreamer, a romantic and I truly believe the best things in life are free. I take many risks and am completely comfortable being a gambler (in life). I am looking for someone who can be content dressing up for a black tie event or writing a song with me in the park... I am loyal and honest and definitely expect the same in a partner...Hope I don't sound too picky but I have wasted plenty of time with women who don't live in my world so to speak and I know what I want...

I really don't have specific guidelines for a first date. I'd like some eating to be involved (either I can cook which I love to do or we can go to a nice little place to get to know eachother) and a bottle of wine. Maybe a movie. Or just something totally spontanious. Whatever my date prefers is what I would like to do on a first date.
