I am very much an animal person. :) I have a black pug who is the smartest dog ever and I probably baby her way too much. I've just always had a thing for taking care of something living.
I'm a hopeless romantic... so stop breaking my heart ladies.
I'm more easy going about less important stuff but relationships are always something I feel need to be handled in the moment.
I love being outdoors and am comfortable walking in the woods at night. I love to try just about everything and I'm naturally competitive so I have to do it well. :)
I'm into all kinds of sports, especially: paintball, snow skiing/boarding, rock climbing, football, ultimate Frisbee, water sports.
I'm a security officer on the Sprint campus. Racing segways around on the weekend.
I really want to travel.... someday soon.
I'm in my 3rd year of a 6 year contract with the KS Army National Guard. I'm the NBC Specialist for my transportation unit out of Olathe, KS. I find great honor in being a part of something that has helped so many people. Support your troops.
I try to keep myself to a pretty routine exercise schedule, don't really like running but I'm kinda use to it and it's a great way to stay in shape. I would consider myself to be in the best shape I've ever been in but still have set goals for myself physically.

I'm looking for casual dating to begin with and wait to see if something forms from that. I'm a bit picky when it comes to becoming involved in a relationship.

1. If you're looking for just friends, message away; I love meeting new people and hanging out.
2. If you're looking for something more:
-I don't date smokers/drug users. I honestly can't stand the smell of smoke and find it highly unattractive when a woman smells like it. :-/
Don't take it personal; there are plenty of other fish in the sea.. 3
*People usually ask me why I'm still single or why I'm still on this site and I haven't really figured it out exactly yet. I don't mind dating/getting to know new women, just waiting for that very special someone to come by and turn my world upside down.
**What am I looking for exactly? Ugh, that's a tough question. I easily fall for a girl with a great smile, long hair and a nice singing voice. I can't help it, just what I'm normally attracted to. I want someone that I'm attracted to, both mentally and physically. I want to be able to hangout and have fun but still be able to adore and be in-love with you. I need someone who can keep up with my active lifestyle specifically with sports and being outside; maybe not necessarily participating but at least supportive. Someone who I can actually have an intellectual conversation with would be nice also.
I'm a good catch and I tend to be picky sometimes but when it comes down to it nobody should ever have to settle and neither should you. ;)

**I've been notified recently that I have been selected to mobilize with a supporting National Guard Unit to Kuwait, starting Sept. 2010. While my job mostly involves me sitting in an office on a base somewhere I will still be gone for aprox. 12-15 months. I understand some people don't handle long-distance relationships very well and won't take any offense if that's the case. :)

Great conversation is worth a step in the dark.

First date for me would be either dinner or a quite spot for some drinks. Fun dates are always great but I think first dates should have plenty of time to talk to each other. I love to cook for women I'm dating; especially at the beginning of a relationship. Like I said above, I'm a hopeless romantic, so there's a possibility you may just be surprised.
