I am a good-hearted, appreciative man who is not very selfish in a relationship. I'm looking to ease(not jump)into dating again in hopes that someone close to me(on the map)will also become close to me in spirit, direction and compatability. I believe, at our age, that we don't need to "raise" a mate, so who you are is who you are and thus with me. Peaceful compatability is the key to long-term, no matter if you're country and I'm rock n' roll, you're silly and I'm serious, you're city and I'm nature, you're Colts and I'm Bears...... Wait, that last one is going too far......Na, just kiddin'. I don't care who or what you like in life, its your character and inner being, your core values that will determine any future endeavors with me or any other. I will not condemn you for who you are even if our core values clash. Rather, I will wish you good luck in you're quest to find your future mate as well.

I'm pretty darn flexible. A quick ice cream or coffee, walking and shopping in a semi-crowded mall with lunch in the open, any landmark or beautiful spot in and of nature, breakfast in a cozy resurant, the museum, the library, a film or live show, sporting event......and I'm not beyond family/ friends events either, so long as you don't read into it as if that kinda first date automatically means long term.
