I work hard during the week so I want to relax and have fun on the weekends. Traveling is one of my favorite things - I can be packed and ready to go for the weekend quickly. "Fun" might also include staying home and watching old movies or reading the newest best seller - I'm not into self-help books. I love to try new restaurants and eating out is always great but I'm a good cook when I have time. Tea by the fireplace is a winter favorite. I love music - everything from jazz to country to oldies to classical - no hard rock or rap, please. I'm very independent but would love to find a companion to share life's experiences.

First date! Hmmmmm. Well, since I'm southern, any kind of meeting has to involve food and eating or at least coffee for starters. We'd have to have the opportunity to talk - that would be mandatory. Then if things went well, we'd have to do something fun like see a movie or a play, or go to the symphony or a comedy club. I'm a romantic and always expect to be with a true gentleman.
