Who am I looking for? A smart, witty, relatively tall (I am just a tad over 6 feet) woman who has a career, is stable, embraces technology (well, if you're reading this...), can be a geek or a dork at heart and is easy-going.
What am I? I'm a down-to-earth, easy-going, hard-working guy who has lots of hobbies, embraces technology and enjoys spending time with others. I try not to take myself too seriously.
I work hard and value stability. During the day I work for a fantastic company. After work, I spend a lot of time on music, photography and technology.
I love going to museums, art galleries, shows, theatre and anything else that expands my mind. I also like to relax at home and watch a movie or just talk about things. I'm apparently one of those guys who can actually talk! (so I'm told)... However, I'm a little stubborn when it comes to communication - I thrive on communication, talking through good times and bad, and making sure there's clarity. I need clarity when it comes to understanding - it helps me get beyond my stubbornness. Does that make sense?
I'm very involved with music and really enjoy playing in a few different groups. No I am not trying to be the next rock star and I'm not doing it "for the chicks". I use music as one of the ways I spend time with friends. I value my friends and my family and they're very important to me. I'm also fiercely loyal to my partner, whomever she may be.
I also love photography. I love taking pictures at events or even setting up little still-life scenes.
I like going on road trips and enjoying the scenery - half the fun is getting there. I don't like pedaling to the metal to get to a destination only to skip over everything on the way. On the other hand I like to plan my trips to take in whatever I want to see.
I'm looking for someone to have fun with, relax and travel with and enjoy their company.
I'm probably not the guy you go to if you like to rock climb before breakfast, cure famine before lunch, or eradicate poverty before dinner. I'm a little more low-key.
I'm a well grounded city guy who is realistic. So give me a shout and let's see how things go.
Now the hard stuff: Yes, I'm separated. She's gone... in another country, never to return, ever... We realized we were not right for each other and are moving through the process of a mutual divorce. Our divorce is working through the system and it takes time for all the paperwork and court material to get done. I'm NOT looking for someone to "help me forget" or "help me get my stuff together"... If any of this worries you, or you don't feel comfortable being with a guy who is in the midst of a mutual divorce, don't contact me.
Getting together for coffee would be a great first start. Good conversation is always fun, relaxing and well, we're probably both nervous enough to start, so it's a great way to learn about each other.
