I am a very romantic man and I would like to meet a calm, loving and caring woman for a long term relationship which can possibly lead to marriage.

I am an outgoing person, and I am fun to be with. I am sincere, positive, happy and playful; I almost always see the glass as half full. I don't take anyone or anything for granted; I love life and I appreciate all that is good and wonderful in this beautiful world. I love my family and my friends, but I would be even happier by adding a wonderful woman to my life.

I would like to share my life with a woman who wants a relationship based on honesty and mutual respect, and one which is filled with love, romance and passion. I am looking for a woman who shares my value system; a person who is kind and compassionate, is able to communicate well, is fair in dealing with others, believes in compromise, responsible, intelligent and unselfish, and who has a sense of humor and a positive attitude.

I am looking for a relationship where both are best friends who are willing to share the happiness of the good times and be of comfort to each other in difficult times. I am looking for a woman who wants to share life, have new experiences, go places, do things and basically enjoy life with a special man in her life.

I like to travel to far away places and enjoy a weekend getaway.

I like to cook, have dinner parties, keep my yard looking nice, and keep my home nice and make it a gentle, soothing and welcoming place for myself and others. I like to do volunteer work and be able to help other people. I like to bicycle and walk, and I exercise at the gym. I like picnics; I enjoy dining in fine restaurants and I love finding special little out of the way places. I am willing to try new things, and I truly believe that life is more meaningful when you share it with someone special.

I enjoy candlelight dinners, plays, concerts, picnics, and a variety of things that are excellent venues for us getting to know each other. The first meeting should be for coffee and maybe a walk along the river so we can get comfortable with each other and see if there is a match. I am open to what you have in mind here.
