Yes this is a long profile, but the way I see it, if you don't have time to read this, then how will you have to meet anyone and get to know them? Also life is too short to waste talking on the computer or the phone.

Might sound stupid, but yes I will know the one I seek when I see him.

Maybe it isn't in fashion now, but can only deal with one man at a time.

I love animals of all kinds and feel it is our job to help them as much as we can. Ask about my pet web site and I will send you the link. If you don't like cats, it would be a waste of our time for you to contact me as I have 2 seven year old cats that will be with me until one of us dies.

I am looking for someone that is like me, in that they have the same basic values as me. Someone who can see the wonder in the birth of kittens, who is able to love unconditionaly, who cares more about the person they are with than the activity of what the two are doing.

I love alterative rock as it says more about how I feel than any other type of music. I like some of all music except rap and country, or worse yet country rap.

I love men with long hair as it says to me they are not willing to conform to a certain look just to make more money, plus it is just plain sexy. If I had to say exactly what I was looking for in a man as far as looks go it would be tall, thin with long hair. I am sorry but I really have a hard time dealing with men with short hair. Don't understand how the notion of hair above the ears ever got started. It is not a good look, unless you are a baby. At the age of two my grandson is very cute with short hair, however if you are an adult it isn't a bit cute!!! The very young can look good with any kind of hair.

As to age, it really doesn't matter to a point, however if you are young enough to be my son, or old enough to be my father it most likely won't work. However nothing is carved in stone, and it just depends on the person.

I am not looking for one night stands, and if that is what you want, you aren't looking for me. Sex is great but honestly I don't need another person for that, and if that is all you have to offer, then I don't need you. Some will say they want more, but the truth comes out fairly fast!!!

I didn't think I would have to add this, but if you are still living in the dark ages, and are a racist, please don't contact me as I can't deal with that level of ignorance.

As to drinking and drugs, if they are the first thing you reach for in the morning, then please don't contact me. Nothing wrong with drinking or smoking but if these things rule your life, then I am not the one for you. If you are into the hard drugs, again please don't waste your time by writing as we will not be a good match.

I don't want any "new" children, but I don't have any problems meeting men that have children of any age. Of course your children are important to you, if they aren't then please don't contact me as we will not get along very well.

First date, somewhere where both are comfortable and can talk. One on one and not in a big group.
