i am an easy going person who enjoys people who are upbeat... my glass is always half full,never half empty..smiling keeps you happy and healthy ...I enjoy spontaneous activities... i.e.:going off just for a day out anywhere.. i am quite active and enjoy people who like to run off and do the same..no couch potatoes or complainers about the past please.. that is never good on dates,,everyone has their share of stories but no one wants to hear about how bad it was because NOW is so much better.....I am also turned off by people who are sneaky and and choose to lie when confronted or become defensive..the truth always comes out sooner or later.......and couch potatoes grow roots and stay planted.. I prefer to get up and get going..and please don't lie about your age or any other things,because the truth will eventually catch up with you and that really takes up honest people's valuable time. My pictures were taken last summer and also this past July for my birthday and as recently as this December 2009... and they are current.. i look exactly the same... why post old ones? its not productive, right? how would you explain it if you should ever plan to meet.. be yourself and you will be rewarded for that..

First dates are interesting.. you either know right off if you want to continue to a second date or........ but anyways.. a good first date/meeting would be something simple and not complicated.. please no mind games.. i am honest and if it is apparent that one has enjoyed the meeting, please do not disappear after the first meeting.. it only makes a person wonder if there was something wrong with them ..ex: day at the beach... coffee......and please be yourself..and not lead a person on..i believe that even if the person is not quite what you expected, then just be very thoughtful and kind before you say words that can not be taken back and also not leave the person wondering if a follow up phone call ever comes to pass. Let there be "closure " for that person's sake.. I feel its the compassionate and thoughtful thing to do for another human being and not leave them "hanging" or wondering "why" so they can move on with their lives.....it's all about consideration for that person, regardless of any other feeling one may have......
