I am an attractive, tall, athletic, dark skinned african american male, with long hair. I am laid-back , but very straightforward. No game playing hear

I like women who are open-minded and up for most anything. I am up for almost anything and i like people who try different things. Again open-mindedness and progressive thinking is a major turn-on for me. laugh: My hobbies include traveling, wine tasting, skiing, politics, cooking, fine dining, and spectator sports. My major goals are first: continue to strive to become a better person everyday so that i will be prepared for the special lady that will come into my life. I would like to be in a commited monogamous relationship with that special lady. And I would like to get married and start a family.
I am very humble so its kind of hard to blow my own horn. But, if i had to talk about what makes me unique i would have to point to two qualities. First i am very loyal. My loyalty to family, friends, and others is probably the trait that most people would list if they were asked to describe me. The other would be persistence. Know matter what the odds, and how unattainable the situation may be, i will not give up. That is probably why i am as successful in my career(physican practicing anesthesia) as i am. I am very open-minded when it comes to music. anything with a good melody is something that i can get into. whether its classic rock, jazz, blues, hip-hop, R&B etc. My favorite probably would be hip-hop though. some of my favorite artists include JAY-Z, Common, Kanye West, Led Zeppelin, Sade, Jill Scott, Maxwell, the Stones, BB King, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the Foo Fighters.
I usually like to keep first dates very simple so we can focus on getting to know one another. so i would like to go to a very nice restaurant possibly tia,indian, or italian where we could partake of good food and wine and see where the evening goes. i feel that by not making a big production out of the first meeting it will allow us to focus on getting to know each other without any expectations. believe me as we get to know each other we will do so many exciting things you will not believe it.
