I love doing things with my young son,(8).Teaching him and watching him learn and grow is pricless! I have great relationships with my adult kids as well. As a single dad I raised 3 kids from when they were 5,6,& 7.They're now 21, 22, 23 and they all make me feel way more blessed than I deserve. I do share my young son though. I'm a family man and always loyal. I ride offroad motorcycles (desert), play music, fix up my home, help at church, and try to stay active. --News flash-- I mow my own lawn, clean my home, repair and maintain my autos and motorcycles, if it's broke I fix it, if not I replace it. (Is this too much info?). I really like camping (tent,RV,or back of truck looking at stars)and relaxing by a fire, snow and water skiing, hiking, most outdoor water and active stuff. I feel pretty fit and healthy. I'm a pretty straight shooter meaning I'm pretty much the same person all the time (I can also hit the target). Truth and honesty cuts through alot of superficial masks. I work hard and play to stay balanced. I think I have a pretty good sense of people. I'm secure with who I am and I'm ok. I'm a little shy but intuitive to whats going on. I have a deep heart and have been known to get soft when appropriate. (Did I just say that?) Well what ya see is what ya get! I also feel that two should share the same values, morals,religion, and be able to laugh together. I would like a woman who understands her role as a woman in a relationship and embraces, nurtures, and manages that resposibility joyfully. No battles. Respect and truth a must. Just trying to keep it real so we don't waste time. I also like to hold hands and snuggle when it's cold out or by the fire. I would love to be in Love.
I am not a very "texting" type person. I prefer phone contact or person to person rather than typing. (Call it old school). I loath video games. Not into them. I also like to keep up with whats going on in the world and locally.
I like most music done well. Not rap or punk or screaming stuff. Blues, Beatles, Who, Jazz, Led Zep, classic rock, country, ect..
I enjoy "live" music and theater. And you?

Show up ready on time! Have good manners! At this time in life probably "keep it simple" would suffice and try to break down the beginning nervousness.
Wow this description could get very detailed and lengthy but were not kids anymore and this is not a hook. So I think the best approach is to keep it simple, non threatning, and light. And just get to know each other. It won't take long to find out if the person is who they said they were. I think you know after a short while if you would want to meet again. But meet first, after talking on the phone if possible, in a comfortable public venue. How about a quick 15 minute (no matter what, even if it goes great) "meet" to set a date? Then anticipate! Yes, no, maybe?
Update: OK it sounds cheap but that was not the intention. Just to relieve a little pressure. (you have to re-read these things a couple of times, ya know?). So now anything goes! It's wide open!! You in?
