I am an easy going man of simple pleasures; kind, warm, loving and devoted.

What I’m looking for is a special woman who can take on life's pleasures and challenges, and face each of them with equal zest, knowing that you'll never have to face them alone. I am confident in my life and lifestyle, and look for a woman happy in her own life and lifestyle. I carry no baggage, I'm not a player, but I am truly focused in finding an equal partner.

Currently I spend a lot of time on weekends away from home, visiting family. It's nice, and I enjoy it, but I'm trying to find time for me too, and hopefully somebody to spend my weekends with at home, around the house, or doing fun activities together. I would love to go shopping - outlets, flea markets, antique shops/barns, etc. with somebody special, and doesn't mind having the man in their life tag along.

I love to cook. Not for myself anymore, but I usually cook on weekends when I'm visiting family. They sometimes request a favorite, and I'll oblige them. But I'm willing to try anything, and I'm always looking for some new recipe. I started stuffing my own hot cherry peppers recently - and I can't stuff them fast enough, they're gone before I'm done :)

I'm also very good at foot, neck and back massages. But not everybody gets them...they're only for somebody special in my life.

If you are looking for somebody who will love you unconditionally, shows extreme passion, is romantic, only has eyes for you, and adores you from across a crowded room - then email me. I will reply.

First dates for me have been a typical night, a nice dinner, with hopefully meaningful conversation - to get to know each other. This is usually after talking with each other on the phone 2 or 3 times before meeting.
