Hello and thanks for taking the time to read my profile. Although I am listed as looking primarily for dating, I am also hoping that it could lead to something long term. We have to start somewhere, right? I also like kids, and I with the right person would have them in heart beat. But it has to be with the right person... It's a decision not to be taken lightly, in my opinion.

I am an active, independent, loyal, generous, honest, good and young looking (so I am told), guy who enjoys his work. My personal fitness is very important to me and would expect the person I date to have similar views in that respect. (I.e., I try to be physically active every day. If I miss a day, I don't worry about it, but I rarely go more than two days without exercise. Hey our bodies were made to move, not sit.) If you think you can keep up with me on that side of it, then we should talk.

I am looking for someone who knows how to have fun, is creative, has traveled, shares similar values and morals as I do, enjoys her work and is really good at it. A person who has strong work ethic, but knows when to shut it down. I especially like women who have strong family values (and ties).

PLEASE - Have a recent picture available when you contact me.

I prefer someone local and will consider other locations as long as it doesn't take a couple of days to travel.

I think the first date should be somewhere we can talk like a lounge, coffee shop, walk in the park. Something low key so we can get to know each other a little bit. Although I'd be open for pretty much anything.
