I do my best to maintain a positive outlook and truly enjoy many different kinds of things. An evening at home can be just as fun as a night on the town. I enjoy camping, traveling, the theater, movie, live music, sporting events - just all kinds of things. I sing in several choral groups so music is a big part of my life, but being musically inclined is not a requirement.

I think we're all looking for basically the same things - someone that we "click" with and find attractive that has a similar sense of humor and similar basic interests with enough differences to keep life interesting. A willingness to communicate and work through those inevitable issues that arise is critical.

First dates should be pretty low-key, but that can entail anything from a quick cup of coffee to a quiet dinner.
