Imagine a strong pair of arms holding you safe and warm, a moonlit stroll walking hand in hand, or a Sunday afternoon spent laughing and playing together, and you'll have an idea of what I think a romantic relationship is all about.

Life is about sharing and creating memories. It's about having a real connection--at least I think so.

I'm an old-fashioned guy who still believes in stuff like passion, romance, and being there for somebody. Who am I? Call me a a philosopher and a warrior-nerd. I can take you out dancing, fix your computer, and pry that stubborn lid off your pickle jar.

I'm the kind of guy who likes to dress nicely, take care of business, and gosh-darn it, even be gentlemanly. I love to have interesting conversations and make people laugh and feel good about themselves. I can be highly intellectual but I also appreciate the simple things in life.

The one thing about me that's a little "quirky" is that I'm really into health and fitness. I like working out and have pretty disciplined eating habits. Nothing extreme, but enough to make a difference. Hopefully I can find someone who shares my love for a healthy and fit lifestyle.

I often think about the things I'd like to do with the right person, whether it's traveling to exotic destinations, visiting an arts festival, playing a round of mini-golf, or just staying in and watching a movie. I think anything can be fun when two people share something special.

Why am I here? I'd rather meet someone in "real life", but things don't always work out that way. Finding the right person, I've found, is hard work. Some people don't know how to create a good thing. They can't think beyond themselves. Some people don't know a good thing when they have it. They take it for granted, let it wither, or throw it away. Hopefully, the old adage is true that "good things come to those who wait".

How do you feel about it? Do you feel a connection with anything I've said? That's a beginning at least. Maybe it ends at that, but maybe it could be something more...
