Just looking for a good guy to enjoy life with. I enjoy what life has to offer and would like to share it with someone. I can appreciate the humor in most situations. I believe that I have a lot to offer to the right person. I strive to be honest, open-minded, kind, and caring, and to always learn new things. I have two sons who I adore. I enjoy good conversation, pleasant surroundings, being outdoors, day trips, good music, restaurants, and movies. I especially like being by or on the water.

I am looking for a man with similar qualities. I don't have any hard and fast rules for what I am looking for, just someone I can really click with. I tend to like a "diamond in the rough" type of man - not overly polished, but with just enough of a soft spot for me. I like a man who is confident but not arrogant. I like a man who is thoughtful, honest, open-minded, and grounded. As for getting acquainted, I prefer to exchange one or two brief emails, and if there is a mutual interest, I like to get on the phone sooner than later. It's a much better way to get to know someone. Hopefully, there will be a spark between us - it doesn't take too long to figure out if it's there.

To me, a good relationship is based on equality, honesty, bringing out the best in each other, and looking out for each other.

On a first date, I like to keep it casual and light-hearted. Meeting for coffee is always a good idea, or maybe some drinks and appetizers. The most important thing is to create a good setting for a relaxed conversation. I like to get to know someone gradually through the natural flow of conversation, not by giving someone the third degree.
