*** What's with all the rudeness on here? What's the big deal about acknowleging someone's message? Even if it's just "sorry, but I don't think it will work". Some courtesy would be nice.

I can put just about anything in this, but you still need to decide, right? As I understand it, you want to know me, not the facade I can put up to get you interested.

I tend to be honest to a fault, so if you don't really want an honest answer, think carefully about the questions you ask.

I have no problem with showing affection in public. I'm not going to pretend I'm not with the woman I am with.

I'm not big on spending time at bars, although I do occassinally enjoy watching/listening to karaoke. Just don't expect me to participate.

I'm looking for mature women who've gotten it together and don't rely on other people to make their decisions for them and can be honest and up front. I don't have the desire to play with emotional hysterics or drama. I'm not interested in putting off my life to bend to someone else's wants.

Are you the type of woman who recognizes that a relationship is about cooperation and compromise? It's not all about you or all about me, but about working together to keep each other content, happy and feeling secure.

I make my own mead. If you don't know what that is, or have not tried it, you are missing out on one of nature's great pleasures.

Picnics are fun. A walk around the park (especially if there's a pond or lake). If we can find a secluded enough place, skinny-dipping would work.
