Hi ladies, I decided to update and get down to the nitty gritty with you girls. All the honey and sweetness in the world will get us nowhere if things aren't solid. I'll let you judge me when we go out as far as being nice and smart and yadda yadda. The meat and potatoes is that I own my house, I have no dept, I'm a single father -w- custody and I've had the same good paying job for 12 years now. I'm in good shape and reasonably attractive. These are the same qualities I'll be looking for in a woman. OK Amending the update to include dating requirements. I do not have online relationships. I want to meet people, so passing notes just won't cut it. If I'm writing you it's becuase I liked your profile. If you respond you should be ready for me to ask you out and be ready to go or give me a polite no thank you. I'll be moving on. I want to date not talk on a webpage. If you do give me a yes I will be setting something up that will fit both of us. (Hence if you don't like sushi I'll take you out to movie or play ect...)I will take you out on a minimum of 4 dates.(Even if the first is kind of shakey) If things aren't working we'll become friends or aquiantences. It's not a big deal to me. I'm not insecure and realize that not everyone is for everyone and I don't take it personal. How the heck can any of your discover if you like someone by looking at their personal add? This window shopping thing is just stupid. My name is Dan. I'm a 44yo swm from Sioux City. I enjoy a very good life that includes a beautiful 15yo daughter who lives with me and keeps me very busy. That's not to say I couldnt' find time for a date. I'm usually pretty conservative on the first date but not stuffy. ( You won't have to worry about Mr. Octopus.) I'm intelligent, hard working, enjoy life and most importantly honest. I'm also very easy to get along with and I'm sure we'll at least make friends. (smile) Look me up on yahoo under djsitz if you want to chat.

Our first date would probably be dinner and a couple games of pool just to give us some time to talk and find out if we can go on date #2 LOL. I like to keep them pretty short. However, if things are clicking and it's obvious we're both running on all cylinders I've been know to stay out way past my bed time. (smile) I guess I really play it by ear relax and just try to put my best foot forward. My favorite saying on dating is ya don't know till you go. So mail me let's go out.
