I am happy with my life, but I miss the company of a man and that special friendship. I enjoy a wide variety of things - most music styles (except rap), fairs & festivals, motorcycle rides, billiards, bowling, walking, movies, can enjoy a good pizza or a romantic dinner on the water, cooking a great meal then a glass of wine on my lanai watching the moon come up, or putting toes in the sand at the beach...I could go on & on but you can always surprise me or suggest things you like to do, because it's all about enjoying life, learning about each other, sharing interests, and that's an ongoing adventure!

I am lucky to have achieved many of my personal goals and aspirations, but I still have the rest of my life to keep on learning and experiencing...I want to keep on making the most of every day. I am not a complex drama queen or high maintenance type - I'm pretty laid back. I think I have a great sense of humor and get along with most people and value family relationships. I am very playful & affectionate once I get to know you and feel that the romance should never leave your life no matter how long you've been together. If you're just looking for a fling, I am not your candidate. Whatever else you need or want to know, you'll have to ask or find out for yourself.

I am an artist by trade and have been working on rebuilding my studio after Hurricane Charlie (relocated to Punta Gorda 1st), so I guess that makes me a "starving artist with a day job". I am not afraid of hard work but also enjoy time off to relax and have fun. I try to treat people like I would like to be treated and hope that others will do the same - would have less stress and anger in the world if we all did.

If there is a knight in dented armor out there who's looking for someone to stand next to him in the journey of life, let your intuition tell you whether you'd like to talk to me and see where that leads...

That would depend on what we've discovered & learned about each other prior to the actual first date...whatever feels comfortable. It should be somewhere where we can talk and relax (rock concert may not be the ticket). Or if we've already done a meet & greet and determined that, yes, we are ready for The Official First Date, then there's a lot of places in our area that we can choose from. It can be an old favorite place or some place new to both of us - it won't matter where or what we choose to do, it'll just be the first step of a walk together...let's have fun and take it a day at a time.
