Kind, considerate, educated, nice-looking, physically active, down-to-earth caucasian male, really nice guy, just turned 60, looking to spend quality time (with a possible eye toward long-term potential) with a girl like you.

Hobbies: antiquing, bicycling, hiking, sports, photography, travel, collecting, ping-pong, pool, framing artwork, road trips.

Music: I like oldies, jazz, classical, Big Band and New Age; I dislike rap, country, and heavy metal.

Foods: I eat most normal foods, including meat, eggs and dairy products; not fond of liver. Especially crazy about Mint Moose Tracks ice cream and White Chocolate Chip Macadamia Nut cookies. I enjoy beer and wine, in moderation, and usually in my own home, with dinner or in front of the fireplace.

Occupation: I spend a few hours each week taking care of the rental properties I own.

Health: In excellent physical condition; no medical issues; no diseases, chronic or acute; I take no medications of any kind for any reason. I have all my original internal organs, teeth and hair! Have never had, nor do I ever intend to have, an STD; that's not the world I live in.

Personal style: Conservative, but tasteful, dresser. No fetishes or bad habits. Respectful and respectable. Hair is combed, teeth are brushed, clothes are ironed, shoes are shined. Great sense of humor.

Recently retired from a 24-year career with an international biotechnology company. Financially secure and emotionally stable. Not looking for a meal ticket. Currently living in a very comfortable, tastefully decorated 4-bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home in a small college town in SW Ohio. Seeking a companion to help fill the empty spaces, both in my home and in my life. Have a house and/or job of your own that you won't leave? No problem; your house during the week, mine as our "vacation" home on weekends.

Seeking reasonably educated woman, 45-62, at least somewhat attractive, in good physical condition, no issues with alcohol or drugs, not encumbered by demanding pets, dependent children or needy parents, who can add a little to my life as I add much to hers.

Not interested in playing games. Ask me what you need to know. Honest and thoughtful answers to your specific questions will be provided upon request.
