God some of you women make us men jump through hoops...There I upgraded to serious member...
As you can see I put a lot of time into my profile I am serious in what I am looking for. And since most everyone here seems not to care about or give a damn about the % compatibility ratings or no one cares to respond to serious emails either, then your not as serious as you claimed to be on your tests. And if you don't have the courage to talk to me in the first place and if I haven't looked for you first as well, then stop right here because your wasting your time with me, my life is an adventure plain and simple. I am looking for someone who can handle a serious relationship and have a hell of a good time while doing it.

And as for my interests and hobbies go, just read my interest list above and I am sure that pretty much tells you about me. And I am trying to quit smoking as well.

My goals/aspirations, Is to find one woman, just one damn woman who can really be honest with them self and me, and not try to play head games with me or themselves. My needs in a woman/mate is actually quite simple and this is the nut in the nutshell:

I need someone who responds to the fact that I enjoy the reassurance of physical contact and emotional sharing, Like walk into a store or just out and about with you respectfully holding on to my arm as a lady and someone who is deserving of my total loyalty and affection.

I need someone who desires and reciprocates intimacy as much as I do(And that's a lot).

I need a partner who is energetic, enthusiastic and has high self-efficacy like I do and will support or even participate in my personal and professional interests that feeds my sense of identity and accomplishments. I love adventure and the rush from it.

I need someone who will be patient and supportive as I figure out my needs and our needs rather than someone who will rush the relationship or any other given situation prematurely. I plan my path in life so as to live long enough to enjoy it.

I need someone who will not put up emotional barriers when I seek to understand your thoughts and feelings, but would rather communicate with me intimately and candidly as well as honestly. Meaning: don't hide behind your past, tell me about your fantasy's, just be honest with me is all.

I need someone who will join me in taking time to find a complete and genuine resolution to issues as opposed to avoiding conflict by settling for quick, temporary agreements.

I need someone who regards sex as a meaningful bond between two people in love and someone who appreciates being the center of attention in the bedroom. And one who has a high sex drive but not so high as to spill out side of our relationship.

I need someone who can satisfy the hopeless romantic in me. And can appreciate the little/big things I do for them that comes from my heart.

I need someone who can express affection openly and directly – such as spontaneous compliments, daily “I love you’s,” occasional notes for me to find and recognition of my achievements. Holding my hand or kissing in public.
Now this does not mean that I neither like nor need time with a partner. I like my free space as well. But rather, that I need someone who can show affection in ways other than just spending time with me all the time – such as talking at home, taking leisurely strolls outside or extended road trips.
I need someone who can sit and listen with an open mind and give back logical and reasonable opinions or feedback to my ideas and concepts when needed. The reason being is I am very creative and innovative. So I need a woman who is willing to have such an open mind and to be willing to learn new things and concepts never seen or heard of before.

I need a woman who can fill all those needs listed above and if you can't fill them completely and honestly then don't bother reading further about me which is posted below. You would only be wasting your time again.

Now about me:
And before I go any further I am a very Esoteric type person. And very deep into philosophy. I am the type of person who has done so much already in my life time that most people don't believe it or me till they see me in action.
I am 47 years old and I don't look like life hit me with an ugly stick and a dump truck. Yes I am starting to get a bit of Gray in the hair but you would too if you were going through what I am right now, I just lost my mother and lost another who I cared about.
I just moved back to Augusta, Ga. after 16 years for a multitude of reasons. I have been here since July 14th of 2009. I am self employed. I am a Handyman and I can fix or build just about anything there is, if I want to, for I am highly skilled in many fields and I rank in the top 3% in Engineering skills in the USA. I am self schooled in collage past the point of an Associates degree. I am a very hard worker as well as a damn good homemaker. I was raised in the military most all of my life and have been in 16 different countries. I am a freelance artist by natural skills. I am extremely open minded and open and willing to try anything once. I am extremely intelligent, witty and versatile and I am always open to compromise. I am very shy around a woman till I get to know them(Although others have said that I am not. But, being social is not the same as trying to make the first move, if you will. And I guess its the curse of being an Introvert and and Extrovert all at the same time). I have two lovely daughters with me(Legally), one is 6 and the other is 8 and who are part Native American Indian/Mexican. I am separated and will walk through hell without a glass of water before I ever go back with my two girls to my EX after she has let something happen and be done to one of my daughters and doing nothing in stopping it and what she has done to me as well.

If being gifted or cursed with of a form of physic ability is classified as unique then I guess that foots the bill for that. And, I am nothing like other men and don't want to be either.

Being in a relationship with someone who enjoys going out to parties and staying-up late at night to me is fun, initially; But I found this tiring over time. But I find it more satisfying for me to develop a long-lasting relationship with a person who also enjoys spending time at home and desires starting or sharing a family. So on a first date, I suggest, that the two of us spend a quiet night having dinner at one of our respective homes instead of going out to a restaurant or club. So that we might be able to learn one another. But as I said I am always open for compromise, so just talking on a phone is fine too but I really really hate phones, because I can't look the person in their eyes when I am talking to them. But as I said I am open for compromise, make a decent suggestion as to what you would like to do and I will see if its within my abilities to do so.
