First of all, talk is cheap....but here's my .03 cents worth. I am thoroughly convinced that over half of the women on this site are "mentally ill" rejected by the quality control department at the human race factory...and escaped quarentine. But I believe also there is a match for everybody in the world...even for the sickos you complain about in your profile. It would be really nice if you would address the good guy instead of the bad guy.

Now here's my address to the good girls...I'm quite normal, dependable, honorable, funny, very loving, lovable, patient, optimistic, family oriented, confident, intelligent, extremely handsome, empathetic.....and....very affectionate with the right person. I like touching, holding your hand. I wrote the book on "How to Kiss a Woman". I'm a little rough around the edges...like a priceless novel that survived the fire...but I know what it takes for a successful relationship. Love, Trust, Honesty, Communication, and a first date.

I'm ready at this point in my life to not only commit but also devote myself to the right one. My wild oats are all gone!

Anyway a quote comes to mind, one of the few that I know, from Sir Isaac Newton who once said:

"I do not know how I seem to the world,
but to myself, I seem like a little boy,
playing by the sea shore, diverted now and then,
by a prettier shell or smoother pebble than usual,
while the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.".....

which kind of made me think...I don't know how I seem to the ladies, so I thought I'd come up with my own quote....

From me:

"I do not know how I seem to the ladies, but to myself I seem like a just a guy looking for a friend to love, diverted now and then by one profile or the next, while the woman of my dreams is just around the corner."

If I've taken the time to write to you, it means I'm seriously interested in getting to know you and that I suspect you may be genuine and have some adorable qualities. I'm not here to waste my time. I've done enough of that already. I'm honest to a fault and appreciate honesty in a woman. I value a positive outlook. Things do happen for a reason. I also believe that you have to base a healthy relationship on friendship. I too love to laugh...of course...who doesn't? If you have kids, I know they come first. Lastly, if you define your man by his hair, well then fortunately I guess I'm out of luck with you. At risk of sounding too harsh, I want a woman that's got some sense!

I dislike smoking. It contradicts my lifestyle...which is healthy. I like working out. I recently bought a home gym in my quest for the perfect body. I got tired of "missing" my athletic days of high school...and it feels great to be back in the groove. Still need to improve my eating habits. I need some influence there, I think.
I want someone who is health concious and takes care of herself and watches her figure and health. After all, don't we want our years together to be many and of high quality?

First date? Something simple, casual, public. Weather permits, I like patios.
