I'm a person who understands the importance of a genuine friendship to a long term relationship and I'm looking for someone who will take the time to develop one.

I enjoy walking around the city, trying out new restaurants, going to movies, concerts and other interesting places. I also enjoy the beach, bike riding and going for drives in the country.

My main goals are to continue being a great father to my college-aged son and meeting a compatible woman.

I am a good listener and a true gentleman. Our conversations will help both of us get to know one another better. I think you'll discover that I am romantic, chivalrous and a good friend. I'm happy, easy-going and tend to look at the bright side of life.

As far as music goes I'm into almost anything. I get a big kick by turning my 17 year old on to the things I've listened to over the years and I also enjoy the stuff he's constantly showing me.

I hope you and I can share things too.

Conversation is the most important thing for me on a first date, whether we go out for dinner, go to a cafe or just take a walk.
