I'm a independent and easy-going guy who knows how to be serious when the time arises, but has a good sense of humor and knows how to enjoy life to it's fullest. I enjoy being around family, and although I am childless except for a dog I am very accepting of kids. I am confident, honest, financially and emotionally stable, intelligent, sensual man, who enjoys the simple things in life. A romantic at heart who loves to show affection. I got my own place and a great job, but I just need to find that special person who can start off as friends and turn into a long term relationship.

I am looking for a woman with an easy-going personality and good sense of humor who is intelligent, independent, good communicator, and affectionate. I respect a woman who is not afraid to speak her mind.

I grew up in the St. Louis area, but I moved back here just two years ago to be closer to family and quite frankly got tired of the cold winters up there! I spent most of my adult life in Chicago 14 years to be exact, so I am still adjusting and learning where everything is around St. Louis. I love to try new restaurants in the city and surrounding areas, although I can be just as content spending an evening in ordering takeout or cooking a meal together. I'm always up for traveling whether it be a short weekend trip or an extended vacation.

I love hanging out in the great outdoors hiking, camping, swimming, going on float trips, and cycling. I enjoy a some what healthy active lifestyle and you can find me at the gym 3 or 4 days a week. I enjoy a good outing to see the Cardinals or Blues play a few times a year.

The first date could be something casual like a coffee house, restaurant, meet for drinks, walk in the park, etc where could get to know each other.
