Looking seriously for a long term relationship with an intelligent, friendly woman.
Just an old fashioned guy, pretty traditional, clear headed, and actually
goes to church (but not every Sunday). A US Navy vet, and former jock. Lots of history, and a pinch of necessary baggage, but then at my age, and probably yours, I sort of think that everyone has at least some baggage, even if its only a few very small handbags. lol.
I am a straight forward guy thats not into any game playing. I would love to meet a woman that is intelligent, sweet, and attractive to me, and share similar values and a common chemistry. Professionally employed and with the same co for the last 15 years and in the same house for almost 30 years. Divorced for 15+ years too.
Just recently have been going out on dates and learning to date again.
And that Harley in the pic is NOT mine. Also, I do not read minds,
but on ocassion, I have been known to be able to understand body language!!!!
whoohoo!!!
Or in other words, to restate this ... Used only once for 17 years, Very Good Condition with All Parts Working. Reconditioned and Restored for for the last 15+ years. Still with a sense of humor and still attracted to a responsible nice looking woman, but have dated very little by design, except for the last year. Professionally employed, degreed, and in the same home for over 25 years. Family and friends are very important. Kids are absolutely great and a good woman is even better. Recently started working out regularly at the gym again, with results that have been again amazing to me, which means that I have lost 30 lbs in 4.5 months so far. Its clear that now is the time make this a permanent change in lifestyle. The brown / gray hair keeps thinning and the mustache is just about solid white. Bad hair days are a thing of the past. I like going on walks and a lady that would enjoy that activity would be nice, but not necessary. Also, I like ice hockey as my son has played all over the metro area for the last nine years, but that chapter has closed and over the last year+ or so been replaced by swing dance. Swing dancing has become something I really enjoy and it is good exercise also, but I am still
learning. Also, enjoy reading, some music, travel, garage sales, movies, flea markets, gardening, antiqes, water, lakes, oceans, an ocassional nice glass of wine, an ocassional Cardinal/Ram game, and or showing affection and attention to a trusted woman.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails"

to the achievement of your values."
