I have to say that I'm much cooler online. So if you think I'm corny now then wait till you meet me in person. I'm a good guy looking for a good girl. Honest and Loyal. I'm a quiet laid back guy who knows how to have fun and be happy. I dont go to the bar too much anymore. I'm kind of past the bar scene. I like to watch movies and have friends over and entertain. I like to cook and I'm probably a better cook than half the girls on this site (yes thats a challenge). I can make an awesome shrimp stir-fry! In my free time i like to go jogging/running, i have been really getting into mountain biking a lot lately and just got a new good bike, I take care of my baby turtle Donovan or just hang out with my family and friends, bowling, to the batting cages or driving range to whack some balls. I like nature and taking adventure walks and animals. I like to go to the shore and to the mountains. Mainly Wildwood and the Poconos. Promised Land State Park is my haven. I like to travel and have been to Paris and Amsterdam ;) I loved it and want to go back someday amongst many other places. I'm shy and it takes a little time to break the ice with me. Once i open up i can be a pretty fun person to be around.
I went to school to be an Automotive Service Technician (Mechanic)and Also to be a Computer Service Technician. I now work in the Hydraulic field. Go figure. I have been there going on 9 years. Its a small company but i have found my niche and will probably be there for a while. I have my own place in Far Northeast Phila right on the edge of the city and am hoping to buy my first home in a few years.
Why I'm here...
Ok I'm not really sure about how i want to start. I'm kinda looking for a diamond in the rough. I'm not looking for anything in particular. Except i know i don't want any crazy chicks! I'm looking for an awesome girl that's serious about finding someone and possibly starting a friendship. If that goes well then maybe things can progress. I just want to find someone I'm attracted to and someone i can hold a conversation with. I want someone real. I want a woman i can joke around with and be sarcastic with. I want someone that I can make feel special. I want a girl to cuddle up on the couch with and watch movies and order pizza and eat ice cream. I want a girl that likes to out some nights and other nights wants to stay in and just relax. I want a girl that's in style or at least has her own style and is comfortable with it. I want a girl that has a good head on her shoulders. I want her to be my best friend, my confidant, my sidekick, my partner in crime. I want her to be my lover, my best friend, my counselor. I want someone with who I can share all of these traits with. I could go on forever but for now I will just keep an open mind and checking my inbox.

Love like you've never been hurt.

Every opportunity is what you make of it.

When you fish for love, bait with your heart, not your brain

- Friends is fine. I like friends and I am willing to meet friends. I am here looking for the one for me but if i meet a few friends along the way then that's always good too.
- Don't treat me like all of the others. I am a good person and i care about other peoples feelings.
- Have some frigging class about who you are. Yes I'm not rich and all proper or anything but i have manners and i have morals and i know whats right and whats wrong. Everyone makes mistakes but if you live everyday making the same mistakes then that says something about your character
- Have an open mind. I am not perfect and if you're looking for perfection then I will probably let you down. Everyone has flaws. You just have to ask yourself. "What are you really looking for?".

Now that I screwed myself. I hope to hear from ya

I think a first date should be a time to actually get to know the person you are meeting. Like coffee or lunch or something. Maybe to the bar for a drink if we get along. First meetings i believe should be just as a friend with no expectations. Maybe go down to south street for a slice of Lorenzo's or a Steve's Steak. I'm usually up for anything as long as its fun.
