I enjoy going to the gym, working out, physical activity and trying to stay in shape.
Also enjoy meeting friends for food, drinks and great conversation. Going to the lakeshore and traveling whenever I have the chance. I'll try about anything and enjoy staying busy, but relaxing with a book, movie or someone special is nice also. I don't watch much T.V., but I'll watch a show with you if you're into it. If I do watch the tube I would usually watch educational programming, discovery, history, A.E. or news. I enjoy going to sporting events and games, but I don't follow sports, sometimes I think I'm the only guy who doesn't, this is your chance ladies(lol). I'd rather take you to an antiques store, lake or festival on a sunday afternoon than watch games on the T.V. unless you really wish, and I can be talked into it. I think just about any activity can be enjoyable with the proper company and I'd love to be exposed to some things I don't normally do. Share your passion with me and I'll enjoy it. I love exposing people to new things, sharing in new experiences, and the adventure of it all. So much to do, so little time.

I like to have fun and find humor in many things.

How do you do this without sounding arrogant or appearing to have delusions of grander? Not sure, but here goes; I am an honest gentleman, stable, aggressive, assertive, loyal, positive, humble (Yeah really, which makes this sentence difficult, lol), confident, eclectic, intelligent, eccentric, accomplished, driven, compassionate, flamboyant on occasion, romantic and have a great sense of humor(so I'm told). Yeah, I know, unfortunately everyone thinks they're funny (lol).

I may have you and your friends laughing, once I get to know you, feel comfortable and get in the zone. I have a sharp wit, and can be sarcastic. But I won't rib anyone who can't handle it, or would take it wrong. I enjoy making people happy. I smile and laugh a lot and am a fundamentally positive person. Comfortable in most social settings, and can get along with about everyone. But I am very particular about the people, with whom, I choose to spend my quality time. It takes me a while to let my guard down and get really close to people.

I can hang with the good ole boys in the garage, or be a charming loyal companion at the fundraiser. Most people who meet me like me.

I love to travel and have been to the Caribbean and Mexico many times, Hawaii, England, France, Italy and Kalamazoo(lol). Still many places I've yet to see. I like sneaking down to Florida, for a bit, to escape the winter when I can. Someone who enjoys traveling would be spectacular.

Any festival, carnival, fair, concert let's go.

I have a strong entrepreneurial spirit and do many things for income. I have a builders and realestate licenses. I was 'flipping houses' when the real estate market was stronger and loved it. But am doing some less exciting things now to fill in the gaps. I'm always looking for the next opportunity. I have some income property and can build or fix about anything, but would sometimes rather make a phone call to get it done, at this point (lol).

I am looking to meet the one to share life's adventures with, and maybe make some friends along the way until I meet her. Not looking for someone perfect, but perfect for me. I'm not willing to settle for less than amazing, and I want magic in a long term relationship. If it's not there, we can still be friends.

I believe you can accomplish anything if you put your mind to it and that's how I've lived. The thought of meeting someone who feels the same way, and the incredible life we could build together gives me goosebumps. I probably need someone intelligent and creative, or dynamic in her own way, to get and keep my interest. She would have to be someone who is not superficial and doesn't get caught up in extreme self-centeredness, negativity, games and the petty stuff. Maybe an eye toward volunteering together, at some point down the road, enriching our lives and those around us. Ah yes, the world would be our playground and we'll leave it better than we found it.

I like kids and they like me. They get so excited about doing anything, it's great. I have a lovely 17 year old daughter. I am so fortunate, she's becoming a wonderful young lady. She lives with her mom. Everything I do is for her. She is just fabulous, and everybody likes her. You'll probably only meet her if your going to be, or have been, around for a while.

I enjoy driving sports cars.

I'm often mistaken for being 10 years younger, because of my appearance.

I have an appreciation for many types of music.

I am a gentleman, open doors, pull out the chair etc. I feel as though we're a dying breed sometimes (lol).

We should probably just meet, see if we have any mutual interest, chemistry, or potential for such, and find out what you think, of me. Thanks for looking at my profile and good luck with your search if I'm not for you. I'm very particular, also, about what I like, if you're not for me don't take it personally. No worries, you're probably wonderful, but just not for me.

If you're not interested in me and I have contacted you, I'm totally open to constructive criticism about my profile or letting me know why not(I like dark haired men, your hair makes you look like the guy on blue lagoon, you look gay, lol) whatever the reason, let me have it. I'm just extremely curious about all this. Your very honest input is so absolutely appreciated.

Something very casual, maybe meet for coffee or a drink (a really quick drink if there's nothing there, lol) and see if we have any interest in each other. If we click, we go from there. And if we're so fortunate, we conquer the world. If not we part ways with no hard feelings or maybe a potential new friend.
