First of all, please feel free to write to me. I appreciate a bold lady and will not be offended or put off if you take the initiative to write me first.
I'm 40 years old, tall, athletic, intelligent, and have many interests. I have a good job that I love, I have no baggage from previous relationships, I don't smoke, I have all my teeth, and I don't play video games. I enjoy the water and sun so activities like swimming, scuba or skin diving, or just hanging out in the sun are fun and relaxing for me. I enjoy intelligent conversation with someone interesting (Sorry, NASCAR is neither an intelligent topic or subject for conversation.), maybe over a bottle of good wine. I like road trips in a Jeep with the top down, and am a true romantic and enjoy a spontaneous kiss or other forms of flirting. I like plays, musicals, art, and other artistic outlets. I enjoy browsing at the book store, shopping for clothes, or simply walking the streets of a small town Up North or in some rural community. I much prefer to be bare foot as opposed to wearing shoes, and am comfortable in either a suit, or shorts and a t-shirt.
I'm not a big TV watcher, but do have NPR on the radio as much as possible.
I enjoy cooking and for a guy am a very good cook. Maybe we could cook dinner together!

I prefer casual first dates; meeting for lunch, dinner, or coffee. Starbucks is always great, plus I own stock! Then perhaps a walk in a park, the beach, or through town chatting and getting to know one another in a relaxed atmosphere.
I would be interested in meeting ladies between 38 and 54 years old. I truly appreciate an intelligent, confident, and mature lady. A great smile is also important, as is the desire to simply enjoy kissing. It may sound silly but it seems so many forget about the true joy of simply looking into the eyes and kissing a significant other.
