I'm looking for a lady that can be both my best friend as well as my lover. Someone that I can share some of my most private thoughts with and not worry about any reprocussions. Who is always there for me through both the good and the bad times.

A woman that I can spend some quality time with. I want to spend time with her but not so much that I start to feel as if I am being smothered because I have no room to breathe.

I want a lady that can brighten up a room, just by walking into it. Can make me feel like the luckiest man in the world just by having her being a part of it. Is always a very bright star in my life, even when everything else seems to be dim and dark.

She has to be understanding, trustworthy, caring, sensitive, honest, emotionally available, is not one to compare me with someone else that she has been with in her past.

Can except me for me and not trying to change me into somebody else. I am the type of person that "what you see is what you get". I do not and will not fake it for anyone. I am who I am. I will always tell it like it is. I am not one to pull punches.

She must have an open mind and willing to try new things. Have an adventurous side to her and not just be comfortable with the everyday stuff and no spontinaity. Prudes need not apply as well.

A first date Hmmmmmmmm. Just about anything where we could talk and get to know one another.

I do feel however that going to something like the movies on a first date is a very big mistake. You don't get the chance to learn about the person that you are out on the date with if you are in a movie theatre.

Maybe a nice long walk down at the lake. Dinner, drinks, anything will do.

You can have fun doing anything if you are with the right person. Nothing fancy or formal, just being yourself and finding out about your date.
