I have diverse tastes in interests ranging from bodybuilding to analytical psychology, nutrition and body chemistry. For leisure I like the Art Museum or a nature park to take my mind off things but anything having to do with culture will do. I'm a personal trainer, but I don't like to limit myself to that area of interest. I like people who can bring something new to the table. Ideally, I'd like someone who is somewhat different from me in order to complement my personality. Musically, I'm open to anything except country and heavy metal. The more open-minded you are, the better chance of us being compatible.

I'm here to find someone who is ready and looking for a monogamous relationship. If you're looking for NSA, FWB or hookups/bootycalls, I'm not for you. What I'm looking for is more substantial, so please don't waste my time or yours.

I am not religious, nor do I plan to be in the future. While I am tolerant of other's beliefs, I have no intention of converting, so please move on if you are looking for someone who shares your particular faith.

I am not interested in people who have children (no exceptions).

On a final note, please leave your baggage from your last relationship in the past because it's not fair to anyone going forward to deal with your hangups, not to mention it reflects badly on you.

Honesty, transparency and full-disclosure are expectations I have for anyone interested in a relationship.

I have a preference for fair (pale) complected redheads and brunettes with dark eyes (hazel, brown). There's something about that creamy expanse of milky white skin contrasted against the darkness of her other features (eyes, hair) that turns me on to no end. That's not to say I don't date outside my preference as it really depends on the total package someone can offer. Intellectual stimulation and personality are important to me.

I don't have a preference in terms of bodytype but I don't find the extremes (anorexic/morbid obesity) attractive. If I had to choose, I'd prefer curvy and thick over petite because I think women should be soft, smooth and healthy. I want a woman who is comfortable in her own skin because confidence really shows through and will set her apart from everyone else.


*I am looking for a relationship. Not friends. Not a bed buddy. Not willing to compromise on this.*

**If you are high maintenance (and those of you who are, know you are) don't waste my time. Life is too short to deal with difficult people who think the world is waiting to cater to them. Yes, that means you!**

***If you have no intention of meeting face to face, in person, do not contact me. The purpose of being on here is to meet people, not to play games in chatrooms and E-mail. Don't waste my time or yours by lying about your intentions.***

It really depends on the interests of both people.

I don't think there can be one "ideal" date for all people.

I'm open to anything, but I like culture, music, art.

That means anything from a trip to the Phoenix Art Museum for a film exhibit to something low-key as a game of pool, maybe even miniature golf.

Movies are fine once in a relationship, but not really conducive to getting acquainted with someone on a first date.

I'm open to suggestions, though.
