I would like to make a connection with an independent lady that has some common interests and personal traits to match mine. I'm 42 years old with two graduate degrees. I'm divorced and don't have kids, but my cats seem to be well adjusted. I’m 5'10", dark brown (little grey) hair and hazel green eyes. I'm honest, don't play games. I consider myself to be educated, sophisticated, easy-going, fun-loving, spontaneous, and quick-witted. I absolutely love to laugh. I am extremely versatile and comfortable in anything from a tux to jeans and a cap.

I enjoy traveling, nice restaurants, and a good drink every now and then. Then again, I can have fun at a just hanging on the deck cooking out with good company. Communication, respect, honesty, and loyalty are must haves with me. I prefer someone who knows what they want and isn't afraid to say it. I have always believed that someone either complements or complicates your life. I have read a lot of profiles on here with everyone looking for love. I'm looking for someone willing to put the time and work into be in love. It doesn't just happen. Not the real sustainable type of love. That takes work and a lot of effort.

I can cook, clean and take care of the car, motorcycle, lawn equipment, house, don't get lost or off track, have goals that are attainable. I love my family, play pool, like to swim, play golf and am not too bad at it [12 handicap], like board games and poker. I like to stay home; single men do that a lot! I also like to go see a good movie or other interesting things such a museum, arts festivals, concerts, good restaurants etc. I enjoy hiking, the beach and the mountains. I’m well traveled. In my earlier years I toured with the Glenn Miller Orchestra all over the country. I’ve also spent time in Japan, Netherlands, Switzerland, France, and Italy.

I’m a nice guy looking for someone to share great times with and build a future together. I’m a true romantic at heart and a gentleman always. So.... if you would be interested in chatting please feel free to drop me a line.

A nice dinner in a quiet place so we could enjoy each other's company and conversation. I will add that I'm not a fan of the coffee thing. It's not that I have anything against coffee. I just feel that anyone should be able to survive a nice meal. Hey...it's free! Why not enjoy a nice evening out?
