All around nice guy, with a big but somewhat guarded heart, looking for the whole enchilada. What else is there to say other than I am a realist as far as relationships are concerned? I don't have a fluffy fantasy of what love and LTRs are. They're far too real, and require too much grit. Still, there is plenty of room for lightness and laughter.

If Goals and Aspirations are your thing: I have had a good life so far, and my goal is for it to keep going on that vein. I have bad days and hard times, but by and large I have been lucky to have good freinds, and a great family to help see me through. Not really ambitious, I am fortunate to have everything that I need.

Just looking for that extra "oomph" that sharing a life with some one adds.

For a first date, I prefer low key. Conversation, coffee, dinner, Bowling, roller skating (quad, not in-line), etc.
