I guess this is where I tell you why you should respond to my ad instead of that other guy's with the picture of him rock climbing or lifting weights. :) Well, I'm an honest and monogamous man and I'm not looking for quantity of responses, just quality. I'm a true romantic, a man you can depend on when the going gets tough. I've never been married and that isn't because im committment-phobic... I just want to do it once and have it last a lifetime. I have a great sense of humor and I love to just get out of the house and have fun whether its bike riding, a movie, or a weekend getaway. I like to bike, run, be outdoors, take a long drive...really just about anything. Write soon, as I would love to hear from you! My perfect match is feminine, educated, independent and fun. She knows what is going on in the world and likes to explore and learn. She has a great sense of humor yet knows when to be serious. She's passionate about life and love, and family oriented. She's monogamous and wants a real relationship that will last a lifetime. She knows a relationship is based on love and mutual respect and compromise and is willing to take a chance on love! Most of all, she appreciates a good man. Are you out there?

A first date would consiste of a simple meeting where we could sit and have a conversation and get to know more about each other over coffee or dinner.
