If you are honest, trustworthy and caring, those are qualities we share. I am interested in creating a more balanced life, one where I have a special person to care about. Holidays and trips are much better when with that person. I've been alone long enough to appreciate that. (But not so long I'm not willing to compromise). I don't want to change anyone, but do have certain standards, as I hope you do, too. My family members are close and we all enjoy being together. Enjoy meeting people, and learning about their lives. Also enjoy working on community projects and making the world better. I love to read, but nothing too serious, and enjoy all kinds of music except heavy metal and rap.

A casual first date is best -- coffee or lunch out.
