I'm a soft-spoken, easy going, big loveable "Teddy Bear" kind of guy. Don't confuse this with wimpyness. I've played defensive tackle on a semi pro football team and have done some boxing as well. Trust me, you will feel safe around me. I'm fun loving, young at heart, and sometimes don't act my age although I'm very reliable and responsible. I'm a good family man and a good business man. I have owned my own company for over 28 years. I am probably stronger and healthier than most men my age, yet I have a disability that you wouldn't notice while we were slow dancing, or even sitting across from me while we were having a cup of coffee.

I'd like to meet a nice easy going, open-minded lady who likes sports and music. My geographic areas of interest would be from North Hollywood to Moorpark. I am looking for a woman who will respond and be interested in having live conversations instead of just flaky "computer relationships." Please have pictures--I have been honest with mine (the green t-shirt was a few years ago--the suit at my nephew's wedding the past summer). If we have chemistry and find that we are a good fit together, I expect you to be my last relationship. Take a shot. . . you won't be disappointed.

Usually, meeting for lunch or coffee during the week is a way to see if there is a connection. After lunch, as we're heading back to work, we can both have some time to think and decide if we want to meet again. Basically, this is a short and sweet opportunity to meet without pressure. On the other hand, if the chemistry is great, we may be seeing each other for dinner that same night!!!
