Honestly, I couldn't give a crap about how much money you have, or if you own or rent, or what kind of vehicle you drive or how many possessions you own....those are not the things that make a man, a man. It's about the obstacles you have overcome, the lessons that you have learned from them, did they make you a stronger person(I sure hope so) did they make you even more passionate about living and enjoying life? (They should.) Life's to short to let it waste away worrying about how much stuff one can accumulate. You can't take stuff with you when you leave? I want to accumulate memories and leave others remembering me and my adventures rather than the stuff I own. My mom used to say, "make sure you marry a rich man when you grow up" and I used to argue that I didn't want to be with a man that was more in love with money and material possessions than he was with me. And that I didn't care if we lived in a lean-to in the bush, hunting for food...as long as he is strong enough to stand by my side through whatever obstacles we may encounter..., that is the kind of man that will win my heart. Yesterday I was at my local Pet Smart buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Biscuit, the Wonder Dog, and was in the checkout line when the woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had, an elephant? So on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again.. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.) Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's ass and a car hit us both. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard.Pet Smart won't let me shop there anymore. *** asked me why I'm still single and I explained that I am too smart to play games, I'm too good to settle for a loser, and I'm too ****ing strong and outspoken for a balless man to *** Invitation(Oriah Mountain Dreamer,Indian Elder)It doesn't interest me what you do for a living.I want to know what you ache for,and if you dare to dream about meeting your heart's longing.It doesn't interest me how old you are.I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love,for your dreams,for the adventure of being alive.It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon.I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow,if you have been opened by life's betrayals,or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain.I want to know if you can sit with pain,mine or your own,without moving to hide it,fade it or fix it.I want to know if you can be with joy,mine or your own,if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful,be realistic,or to remember the limitations of being human.It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me is true.I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself,if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul.I want to know if you can be faithful and therefore trustworthy.I want to know if you can see beauty,even when it is not pretty every day,and if you can source your life from its presence.I want to know if you can live with failure,yours or mine,and still stand on the edge of a lake and shout to the silver of the moon,"Yes!"It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have.I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair,weary and bruised to the bone,and do what needs to be done for the children.It doesn't interest me who you are,or how you came to be here.I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back.It doesn't interest me where,or what,or with whom you have studied.I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.I want to know if you can be alone with yourself,and if you truly like the company you keep in empty *** time and lifeshould come and goI cannot let itpass me by.For if I were a birdI would have to learn to fly.I would have to take a leapand widely spread my wings.The fear would go awayby thinking of wonderful things......such as....a smile, a caress, a kiss...all the little things that we all seem to miss.As I am flying through the airSoaring through the sky...It is than that I realize On my ownI must get by.byCB

I'm old-fashioned. I'm used to guys asking the girls out. Not that I've never done the reverse...just more comfortable like that. I'm just looking for a guy to hang out with and have some fun with (same as everyone else). Stimulating conversations. Laughter is important, so we have to have the same sense of humour and of course there does have to be some kind of spark to take it beyond friends, but making more friends is never a bad thing, so let's meet and see what happens! I have a bit of a zoo. I have 2 dogs (the Border Collie and the Chihuahua/Yorkie) &..so an animal lover is a REAL bonus. Lol! I enjoy running or walking with the dogs every day, hanging with friends, a good glass of wine, or a beer. I like cooking and dinner parties in or out in a restaurant. I think everyone enjoys movies and listening to music. I like all music, but classic rock is probably my favourite. Not a big country fan. I like painting and photography, and would like to do more travelling (did quite a bit when I was younger). Not looking to *** someone forever...aren't these sites to MEET people? Hoping to find someone with a few similar interests. Also, FYI, I rarely check that favourites thing, so if that is your way of showing me you're interested you probably won't hear back from me. I like to keep first meetings quite short and sweet...they are basically blind dates off of the web after all. A drink or two to see if we click, see if we have anything in common, and then take it from there A first "real" date...hmmmm...up for anything...but a date means to "go out". A movie on your couch or a soak in your hot tub is not my idea of a first date. Lol!

Hmm let's see... I do need to start this off by letting you know that I have a piercing and two tattoos so if you are not OK with this I wish you luck in your endeavors. I seek a man my age or younger, Someone who doesn't mind a part time dating scene for now, someone not in a rush. Have you ever had someone in your life that when you are in a crowd of people and you are not together at that moment touches the inside of your hand? You can not see them but the energy that comes from that touch causes your heart rate to double and your smile large knowing that there are no words needed as the heat of their touch, the look in their eyes tells you all you need to know? A man that has a life of his own and enjoys having it while sharing some time with a busy career driven woman who takes care of her own things and does not seek yours. Someone who is not jealous as I do not get that way myself, I expect that when we look at each other it is a mutual trust. I am interested in someone that is not waiting for the weekend to come so they can tie one on, Someone that does not mind that I am rusty at the outdoor activities but would love to try and get back to it. Someone that has a serious side with a dash of inspiration. Someone that does not mind that I am not perfect but would like to help me at the gym, go hiking, fishing, boating. I am also looking for someone that holds their family as close as I hold mine, it shows a large character in someone that can be dedicated to what is important in life. P.S. I am always up for a good ride to no planned destination or a day out just random. PSST. I am planning on getting more work done on my tattoos. Coffee or a comedy show.... Then if it goes well from there I will buy you an ice cream while we take a walk on the beach.... If you are good I will get you two scoops.
