Hello Ladies,
I'm an educated, funny, movie aficionado who likes to go out as much as I like to stay home. Back on the market after 15 years, I have one child, a 14 year old girl who I see once a week. I am gentle and caring, I think about others and care what others think about me. I have brown hair with grey streaks, and blue, smiling Irish eyes. I have big shoulders and am stocky like a football player - kind of like a Tony Soprano body type with all his own hair and a little better looking (also with a bigger heart a hint of sarcasm).

My mom brought me up right and sent me out into the world able to cook, clean, balance a check book and take care of myself. I own my own house and live by myself. My house is always very comfortable, clean, and nicely decorated! I love to play cards with a whole group of friends, go to movies at the Drafthouse and discuss the movie afterward. I have happy hour at my house on Tuesdays and invite people over to play poker or board games. I like to be the life of the party, drinking socially, but not to excess. I am looking for someone compatible who would be a partner as well as a lover and friend.

I like to think of myself as romantic mainly because of the way I was brought up. I like to do all that I can to ensure the one I am with has a wonderful as well as memorable time. First date or meeting would be over drinks at a neutral place that you suggest - someplace you feel comfortable with and can be yourself. Second date or meeting would be over dinner, maybe someplace new to the both of us. We'll have a few drinks, listen to some music and maybe go walking afterward. Then I'll escort you to your car and maybe get a nice hug. You will have to make contact with me to hear any further. The ball's in your court!
