I've lived on the east side of Michigan for most of my life, in both the country and the city. I prefer the country for what it is, a pleasant and pastoral environment, but I love the city because it's a hard and fast (and fun) place to live. Philosophy and spirituality are integral to who I am, but I'm discerning and always open to a better way. I'm thoughtful guy, but I'm not weak or feminine. I'm confident, and I enjoy being alone as I do with good people.

Currently, I'm a student with a Women & Gender Studies major. I have a strong drive and passion for becoming a sexologist. Sexology is a study for me, think of it the way a biologist thinks about biology. It's not really important or integral to my personality, it's just what I think is interesting and important. =)

I've loved metal forever. My dad was the one that turned me on to it, and yeah, end of story. =) But, electronica is great to listen to, and I love classical very much. Russian composers are best. Country is not at all fulfilling to me, and I don't limit myself to what I love.

I'm a talker and a thinker that likes to party and dance. I'm pretty athletic, inside and out I prefer workouts that deal with flexibility and speed, but raw strength and large muscle groups are fine with me. (I'm definitely not a meathead, but I love fitness.) I'm very good at relaxing, and I eat right, meaning I'm not a vegetarian. I find their lack of faith disturbing.

I love gardening, and I love flowers. I love putting my hands in the dirt and making something live with my own effort. I love Valentine's Day, and I love giving gifts. I'm a farmer's son. (Not that I am a 'country' guy. I rather just enjoy the peace of a beautiful land and a harmonious lifestyle.)

Message me if you're confident or unconfident, but I appreciate strong women. People are meant to be respected, but if you don't have respect for yourself, then I won't find you immediately attractive. But all in all, if I get a message from you, I will try to message you back, because I love talking to people. =)

I enjoy first dates with coffee (day or night) or a nice restaurant with good conversation.
