I am a kind, loving, easy-going, simple, humble and down to earth person and wonderful friend to have.

Originally from MA and have been living in Jacksonville since Feb 2006. Formerly served on active duty in the Navy for 23 years and have traveled and seen alot of this world. Married only once in 1982, divorced since 1989, and have one 24 year old son.

Always a gentleman & a person of class and integrity. Great sense of humor, outgoing, self-reliable and sufficient along with having a secure job and being financially and emotionally responsible and stable. Extremely passionate, affectionate, sensual, and romantic. Very caring, sincere, thoughtful, considerate, reliable, honest, and trustworthy.

Interests include: traveling, weekend getaways, music (smooth jazz, R&B, R&R), musical events, festivals, concerts, dining in/out, dancing, movies, camping, animals, participating in and attending sporting events, walking, jogging, racquetball, biking, sightseeing, volunteering with charitable events, doing spontaneous things, meeting new people, merlot wine :) and being with family and friends.

Hoping to meet a wonderful woman who is sincere, confident and has a positive attitude in understanding what dating and meeting someone new entails. Of course, everything has to start out with a core foundation of having mutual integrity of one another and becoming friends first with the hope of developing into a more tangible and meaningful relationship.

P.S. Love is not defined by finding the perfect person but rather by seeing an imperfect person perfectly!

P.S. In a most delicate and non-offensive way of expression, anyone who is falsely misrepresenting themselves or has other motives from what is expressed and written in their profiles, please do not contact me. Thank you.

Open to all ideas/suggestions. Meet for a drink, appetizer, etc. is always good.
