Hi ladies... Thanks for dropping by.

Like the original Tin_Man, there are many pleasant surprises to be found here that are not immediately easy to see.

Now, you may wonder, why would I choose that nickname..? Because, you see, he was a "man" with a big heart... as I am. And I still believe in happy endings.


And of course, I would be amiss if I did not mention that I am a man of integrity, valuing things like honour and principal, and of course, honesty.

But of course there needs to be more to a man than "just" being of good moral character in order to make him the right man for you...

So... what might make me the right man for you?

Well, I am in for the long haul. I will be there to support you and encourage you in all that you do.

I will be there to hold you and stand by you when the going gets tough...

I will be there to celebrate with you at your accomplishments.

I will be the one to always treat you with respect.... and treat you like the lady you are.

I will be your partner in crime... co-conspirator in mischief... and partner in sillyness....

All these things I have to offer... and I seek the same. I am not hung up on things like were you work, or were you live, or whatever money you might have in the bank. The things I care about can not be bought or sold.

I hope we might share some modest activity... I enjoy cycling, walking, hiking, to name a few... And I am always open to whatever activities you might enjoy as well. Or perhaps we might both try something new together.

I am of at least average intelligence, and have a natural curiosity about a great many things. I very much enjoy learning... What can we teach other, and what might we learn together?

Lest I forget, I also posses a good sense of humor... and I can often find the humor in life. I have a very positive attitude.... It also helps that I am positive I can handle whatever might come my way. :)

Being that I am serious about finding that special lady, I am not afraid of distance. Nor am I age or height phobic. No Napoleon complex here.

If you should find me interesting, drop me a line, or at least leave me a clue... But preferably not smoke signals, as the wind keeps blowing the smoke away.

I do not bite or send nasty e-mails, but I do answer all correspondence... so if you send me one and do not get a response in a day or two, please drop me another "hey you"! The server has been known to drop one once in a while.

Sorry, the IM does not work. However, if I have put you on my favorites list, it means I think I come close to what your profile says you are looking for, but a restriction prevents me from sending a message. If you would like to chat, I can not send you a message until after you say hello.

And on a final note, while I am definitely looking for that one special lady, I am not opposed to making some new friends in the process. So, drop me a line... :)

First meetings...
That is something we can work out. Generally low key is good. Of course, somewere we both feel comfortable.

As for a first date, untill we know more about each other it is tough to say. But then... it seems to me that getting to know each other is what this is all about.
