Time Saver!
Here's the quickness... I have 4 kids, only one biologically. I live in my OWN house, not with my mother. My car is paid for and isn't an old piece of crap. I do not have a job, I run a business... Yes, there's a difference!

If you like that, then your time won't be wasted by reading the rest :-)

Rewritten on Oct 27...

About me:
I know what I want. In life, in a woman and everything else. I am very passionate, sensitive, faithful, a great dad, good at what I do and will take ZERO crap.

I love to be spontaneous. Random weekend road trips are a lot of fun. During the summer I'll come home from the office and hitch up the jetski without even coming inside. Movies are my forte. A quiet house, dark room and a loud TV with a great movie... mmm. What beats that?

Affection is something that is a must for my relationships. The feel of someone's skin on mine is just amazing. Feeling that someone would rather be right there than anywhere else is something very special for me.

Romanticism is something that will never be lost on me. Seeing smiles is something I live for. Flowers every now and then. A good back rub. Maybe just coming home and taking care of dinner myself but making it more than just a normal dinner. There is so much that's taken for granted and I refuse to do that anymore! =-)

Speaking of dinner, I love to cook. Italian food is my specialty but I can do Mexican, some Chinese, and I can cook a perfect steak. Don't be afraid to put in a request for a specific meal. Would be more than happy to at least try!

There are a lot of things in life that I was always too sheltered to experience. Footballs games, random road trips.... I just want to experience new things. Not all at once but spread out over my life. If you think you'd like to do stuff like that or want to help me get interested in things, hit me up!

I am not a Christian. I believe there is a higher power out there but I do not believe in God specifically. This is going to knock me off a lot of lists but I can't help it. I have no problem with someone that does believe though. It's okay with me. I will support your beliefs and never tell you that you are wrong. As long as you can not preach to me and respect me the same way. I am a Taoist. If you would like to know about it, message me. Happy to share knowledge.

About my business:
I design web sites, logos, graphics and basically anything else that deal with marketing. I started my business about a year and a half ago and it has been very liberating. Couldn't possibly imagine going back to doing 8-5 while someone else takes money out of my pocket.

About my kids:
Being a father is the most important thing to me. Ever. I have 4... Eddie is 11, he was 8 when his mother and I got together but I treat him no differently. Shawn lives with his mother 30 minutes away and I see his as often as time will allow. Kelsey, 7, is my only biological child and I have full custody of her. Kilynn (Kiki) is 3 now and is daddy's little princess. Her mother and I don't really like each other anymore but when it comes to sharing her it all works out.

These kids will *ALWAYS* come first. I will not dump them off so I can meet you. If I happen to not have them one weekend then great. I will also not subject them to anyone because I refuse to get their hopes up.

As a recap, I have 4 children by two mothers. That's not a horribly bad thing and if you think it is you're welcome to move on :-)

What I AM looking for...
I am looking for someone to laugh with. Someone who is fairly passive (I despise conflict). Someone intelligent enough to hold a conversation about almost any topic. I would like someone I could spend a weekend with on the couch with the fireplace going watching movies. Someone who doesn't mind a long distance relationship... I'm in the middle of nowhere and have figured out how to make things work with a distance. Someone CLEAN. If your house is trashy and smells, please leave now :-) My house isn't spotless but I clean up after myself.

Those who need not apply:
Smokers. Can't stand it. Every now and then might be alright but if you have to pause a movie to go outside, forget it. Women that are high maintenance, snobby, loud, partiers, heavy drinkers (if you go to a bar and drink more than twice a month, that's too much for me). If you are big... No, I'm not afraid to say that I have a preference. This is a loose definition but I am simply not attracted to obese. In that same respect there *is* a such thing as too skinny. Shocking, I know, I apologize if you're offended. No one expecting to be a mother to my children in any way shape or form. You have to get to know me before you get to do anything with them.

*** All of this may sound cynical and too straight forward but that's me. I can drink when I don't have my kids but I do it at home. I watch movies, laugh, play games, and everything between. So get to know me. And I'll take the time for you :-)

I will not go to a bar or club and I really prefer women that have never and do not have the want to go to places like that. But I would love to go somewhere cozy. Maybe dinner and a drive. Or maybe just a movie at the house. I love being romantic.

What I would like to do is maybe a homemade meal made together. Then some ice cream and late night fun in a park. This to me is a PERFECT night. =-)

If any of this has scared you off, sorry... I just really know what I want now and simply cannot lower my standards. =-) If you're still here, message me!
