Interests: For relaxation I liked to spend time with my significant other but as I don’t have one I spend time doing this stuff. I also like to watch a bit of TV mostly Sci-Fi news and documentaries. I don’t have cable or satellite so you will know TV is not that important to me. I am hoping to be the last person in America without 200 TV channels. I also like to potter about in the yard and my den working on various projects ranging from contributing to amateur science groups to taking pics of tree frogs or writing to my family. I love to dance and would like to get in to line dancing if my partner liked it too. I lover thunder and lightning storms and once even thought hurricanes were fascinating but after three close encounters, two near misses and even one that came back for a second go, I will be happy not to see an more. So who is Bob and what kind of I guy am I. I am an intelligent, open-minded, curious, adventurous, moral, nice guy. I am told I am a bit quirky in a nice way. I am honest and reliable and a one woman man who is affectionate and likes to cuddle and make love, even just sex on occasions. I don’t swing from the chandeliers so often these days, but I do have my moments. I think you only get out of life what you put in to it and that true of a relationship too. I am a together, well adjusted and reasonable happy but I would be happier with the right partner. My pic was taken about six months ago. As you can see I have more hair on my chin than my head. PS I don't have my beard any more but I may grow it again for the winter or if you prefer it that way. What brought you to Dating Again? I have been widower for more two years. I spent the first year feeling sorry for myself. I am happy on my own but I would prefer to find a new partner to share my life with. The thought of dateing again is intimidating and I am not in to hanging out at bars so here I am.

I would probaly would want to go somewhere we can chat on our first date, though I will probably be nervious as its been a while since I dated.

So what kind of person am I looking for or would I be interested in? Its difficult to say or know apart from the obvious like they must be fun to be with and easy to get long with. We presumable must have some common interests, similar life styles and similar life goals. I think they should not be too similar as I probably don’t want a partner that’s just a female version of me. That would be boring. But we must have some overlap or how are we going to be together. But I know there is more to a relationship than just similarity and that it takes time to form a good one. I want my partner to be my best friend and buddy, adviser, counselor and lover. We will be with each other for the fun times and stand by each other for tough times so that together we can walk life's great highway to the setting sun. I guess I am just a hopeless romantic at heart. There are probably some things in a partner I really don’t want. No addicts of any sort and No fanatics. I could probably put up with a Bush fan but I would expect some fiery debates between us if she is. I know that women are from Venus and men are from Mars I just don’t want a partner from Alpha Centrui. One more important quality is she must have a desire to spend the rest of her life with me.
