Hello,

I'm 44, live in Maryville Tennessee. I'm an avid guitarist, playing in a local band. We do about 1 show a month. I like just about any kind of rock music and some new country. Don't like rap/hip-hop and crazy dance music, though I will dance to the music I like. I am currently working on a 1952 Buick hot rod project. Should be a nice ride when it's done, sigh, seems like it's taking forEVER!

I own a 2004 Harley Road King and like to ride, but I'm not the typical biker type. I like riding singly and with a rider, not with a bunch of other bikers, and I like riding conservatively, not wild like the crotch-rocket types.

As a person, I'm calm, not easily angered, not jealous but valuing my time with my companion. I greatly value friendship, and want my companion to be my friend that I can discuss anything with. I'm the kind that will text, call, e-mail but I would hope to get the same back and m

I was divorced in April after a long marriage (tell you more about that later - not messy, just personal). I have no kids, but would consider dating someone with children, preferrably in their teens.

I own a home in Maryville and am financially stable. I work at a local environmental laboratory as their IT manager.

I'm looking for a lady with a nice personality, with similar likes and dislikes as me. I would like someone who really enjoys music and who likes the outdoors - I like to hike and work in the yard. I want someone who hangs with ME when we go out, not going off to be with other friends. I am NOT a control freak! I just want someone to be with me, not with everyone else they know. I'll be glad to hang with everyone, just want to know that she's with me.

Now, I gotta say this... if you are psychotic, or need someone to support you financially, please stay away! And I'd prefer that you have a job or at least are avidly looking for a job!

On a first date, depending on the season... in spring or fall, I'd take you out to dinner/drinks, then maybe go for a walk in the greenway/park here in Maryville. In summer/winter, we'd dispense with the walk part! lol
