"The best relationships are those involving two people who have great relationships with themselves." - Susan Kalior

I actually know what I want, where I’m going, and have realistic dreams and aspirations. With that said, I’m not going to talk about typical boring things like school and work along with claiming to be spontaneous without giving any reasons why. I am diligent and passionate about life itself, especially my personal studies in areas like western esotericism. My temperament is usually cool, calm, collected with a disinclination to submit to conventional rules. To make my intentions clear, I would be considered a serious minded dating individual. It doesnt mean I'm in a rush to get into something long term or that I'm not willing to learn something interesting from someone with no connection. Intelligence and out of the box thinking is what really holds my attention.

Everyone wants to have fun. I dont think I've read a profile about someone who doesnt like to laugh or have a good time, but balance is also of key importance in my view. If your life revovles around partying and drinking, we wont have much in common. My family and friends would agree that I'm a very reasonable person but also not willing to put up with any BS, so I do not hesitate to turn down offers if someone get out of line. If you are looking for longterm potential, you realize that you must meet and date a lot of people untill you find that gem. With that being said, I do not chase woman, if it is not reciprocal, it is not worth my time.

Abstract and metaphysical topics fascinate me, something that I could talk about all day. I'm drawn to have engaging conversations with anyone who has spiritual pursuits or philosphical interests. My idea of fun is something along the lines of exploring nature, planning a day trip to an amusement park or going to a comedy club. My outlook on life is generally posative and ambitious, while striving for a virtuous lifestyle. I have a thirst for knowledge and personal growth. I have a wide variety of other interests like reading, writing, meditating, working out, but little interest in stereotypical male things like sports and cars.

Some of my past experiences include traveling to Europe, playing sports, taking karate, being in a band, and serving in the military. Without trying to sound too redundant, I have a strong sense of individuality and stand by my ideals. As the saying goes, if you havent made any enemies in your life, you haven't stood for any ideals. So what am I looking for? Good character, morals, passion, kindness, good communication skills, a healthy lifestyle, and of course common interests. Not too crazy, but unfortunately in today's society, many people want to reap the rewards without actually putting in the work. So if you actually exhibit those qualities within a flexible range I would like to hear from you. Good luck on your search!

Museums, amusement parks, concerts, coffee shops, a nice setting that will open doors for interesting things to talk about. I can talk quite a bit and do not wish to be the only one doing so :-)
