Here's a little insight into who I am and what I like. But just a little:

Some of my fave tv shows right now are It's Always Sunny and Fringe.
My fave sports teams are the Orlando Magic and Buffalo Bills.
I'm a PS3 kinda guy.
I love doing theme parks and attractions. The higher, faster, and wetter, the better.
Photography is a hobby of mine and I take my camera with me everywhere: grocery shopping, restaurants, and anyplace else.
If I was to go to the beach, it'd be at night.
I work from home on the phone, so I primarily text and IM to communicate.

And that's just a tiny tidbit of info about me. Read on if you're intrigued.

I ultimately want to be in a long term relationship but I know there are steps that need to be taken before that can happen. If we're a match, let's be friends first and see where life takes us. I'm accomplished and prefer a woman that is also healthy, reasonably independent, and physically, mentally, and financially stable or is working on achieving those goals. I'm a genuine person and, above all, a man of my word. No fakeness, misrepresentation, or unreliability here and I want people with that same quality and character in my life.

Having a degree of intellect and a positive attitude as well as a high sense of adventure are a plus so we can explore new things and places together. I'm a planner but I'm equally spontaneous. I'll try almost anything and go almost anywhere. No fear here. I like going out and having my fun but I also relax and chill at home when I need to. I don't drink but if you do, that's fine, as long as it's more for the taste than the buzz. I don't babysit and I'm less interested in someone who can't handle the stress that we all have in our lives. There are more positive ways to deal with it.

There's humor in almost everything and I tend to always find it even if it's politically incorrect. A good laugh is like good sex. We'll make a good pair if you're open-minded and not easily offended cuz I do cuss a lot and say what's on my mind and you can do the same and it won't bother me one bit. I'm not materialistic at all and very cost-conscious. I know the value of a dollar and know what we all got to look forward to economically a few decades from now. I've been called cheap and I'm cool with that. But you'll never hear me complain about not having any money to do anything or go anywhere. What I'm saying is, I got my priorities straight and I know what's important. If you do too, then you just scored yourself some bonus points!

I like kissing just as much as the next person but I don't go around kissing everything that moves. I reserve my skills only for those that mean something to me. If things have the potential to progress beyond friends, you'll get unlimited samplings at my kissing booth (and the booth in the back of the room too) and I'm vey touchy feely. PDA's ain't a problem with me at all. If the feeling and mood is right, who cares who's watching. But I ain't gonna be grabbing all up on you unless we got a good vibe and the feelings are mutual.

I don't bring any drama, baggage, issues, clinginess, rudeness, complaining, negativity, bitterness, or psychotic tendencies of any kind to the table and I'm not into playing mind games. I'm about as level headed and easy going as they come. I'll be 100% real with you and hope that you're 100% real with me. I ask A LOT of questions and with me, nothing is off limits. That means I'm all about open communication so please don't be closed up and not willing to open up cuz I'm an open book and we'd be a better match if you are too.

I don't like chipping away at people's walls to get them to open up to me or having to force convo if someone is quiet or shy. If you know you're either of those types and don't plan on changing anytime soon, I can tell you right now we won't be a good pairing. I'm an extrovert and will ask anybody anything anywhere anytime so if you got any questions for me, any subject, bring 'em on. I fall into that category of being "easy to talk to." We'll know we're good for each other if the conversation and playfulness flows naturally and isn't forced.

If you got common interests and think we may be compatible in one form or another, then you know what to do. Age (to an extent) and race are unimportant.

First date/meet is pretty simple. Anyplace mutual where we can talk and get to know each other if our schedules permit. No pressure, no expectations, nothing complicated, forced, or rushed. Let's just go with the flow and let things take their natural course. If there's no spark or we realize we're just too different from each other, no harm done in meeting someone new and we part ways amicably. If something's there and it's worth pursuing, then we can pursue it together, move forward, and have some real fun.

Part of the dating game is meeting new people. Unfortunately, some of them will come and go till we find the right one. I know you've talked to or met new people that have faded away just like I have. They've disappeared out of our lives for various reasons and sometimes no valid reason at all. It sucks but that's just how it is. Due to that fact, I'm a 50/50 operator. That means if/when we go out to do something that costs money, we can either go dutch and/or take turns paying if things go beyond a first date/meet (minus the special occasions of course).
