honesty: even when I tell a white lie it bothers me; I'm an exceedingly sincere, truthful person and appreciate same, whether it's a problem or sharing whatever is on one's mind; I'm also quite direct, even at first, relishing to ask/answer personal questions. I'd rather see and understand you than romance/charm/or humor you, although all are nice

reliability: I call and show up on time, and find that I get along best with those who are also very dependable

down to earth sensibility: creature comforts are nice but not critical for a meaningful, enjoyable relationship

spiritual but not religious: a free-thinker, I have some unorthodox views and hopefully you do as well. It's OK, of course, if we don't see eye-to-eye on everything; main thing is to respect our differences and to not try to change the other person...

drug free (light drinking/smoking OK)

disease free: I'm a very clean guy with good hygiene; hopefully, you value same

physically fit: I work-out/exercise daily. I find myself attracted to lean or athletic women

my age or younger: of course, there's exceptions

live in LA: the closer to the Westside the better

willing to send a pic (if one's not on this site)

willing to chat via phone: there's a tendency on this site and others to email back and forth, but those who refuse to speak on the phone, even at first, I have found to be either terribly shy or, worse, not who they claim to be. Privacy is an issue, but one can protect oneself by blocking their number

So, if most of the above seems to be in accord with your way of thinking, let's chat...oh, my name's Scott

Something casual where we can chat and see if we connect
