I am a very actve 49 year old father with 3 kids. They are grown and self sufficient. I have a great career and comfortable home. I have good friends and a positive outlook on life. I enjoy most outdoor activities. I love to fish and scuba dive or just being out in the ocean. I love to travel and enjoy learning about different cultures. I am caring, loving and affectionate. I am compassionate towards those who are less fortunate, and believe in helping others. I was married for 18 years. I was widowed 7 years ago. What is missing in my life is someone special who shares the same views and interests I do. Someone who is caring,loving,affectionate, and compassionate.Loyalty is important to me. If we establish a relationship, I am yours alone.I live with passion! not just in the bedroom, but passion for life, for the wellfare of others. I do enjoy a drink on occasion but never drink to get drunk. Drugs have no place in my life.

I think first dates should be simple. I want to meet you and have the opportunity for us to see each other as we truly are. Meeting for a drink or coffee is a great way to see if there is any chemistry at all. My hope is to have a good time and continue to enjoy the rest of my life. I hope that you will as well. If it turns out that we end up enjoying life together then both of our lives will have changed for the better, and we can leave dating to those who are still searching for their hearts desires. Best wishes to all of you. Live, care and love with passion!
