I am sometimes shy and quiet and other times I am assertive and outgoing. I am sensual, inquisitive, introspective, witty, a bit sarcastic, and creative. I have also been told that I am honest to a fault.

I enjoy reading and writing very much. I love classical music, blues, jazz, jazz fusion, classic rock, hard rock.

Being open-minded, I enjoy learning and trying new things.

I am a light smoker trying to quit altogether. Really.

I enjoy doing volunteer work my fundraising chapter does for City of Hope, a hospital and research center that functions by donations/funds raised.

I am a classic paradox - I love the quiet solitude, yet desire interaction with others.

I am looking for a man who is intelligent and serious, but who can laugh at his shortcomings; attractive but not vain; emotionally open but masculine; strong but gentle; sensual and passionate.

A first date might be going for drinks, dinner, lunch, or whatever you're into. We should go somewhere quiet so that we can talk and listen to each other.
