About Me

I'm a nice guy, very honest and hardworking. I don't play games - respect is important to me. I'm sometimes quiet, sometimes talkative. I see myself as shy but most people don't think of me that way. I started out life early in the business world and did well but decided a few years ago to step out for a while to do more meaningful things. I just reentered the corporate world and I'm enjoying my newest venture with a global bank. I own a beautiful Victorian house that I'm restoring and my life often centers around it (maybe a little too much sometimes). I'll drop everything to help someone who needs it but I rarely ask for help myself. I'm an eternal optimist - almost nothing gets to me. Everything always works out and I'm confident it always will (sometimes with a little help).I like to fix things and am very ambitious in my projects (both in the board room and the workshop). I buy and restore antique furniture - I like things that are made well and have a lot of character. I love working on my house - but when it comes to restoration I'm a bit of a perfectionist so it will never be finished (unless a future mate makes me finish it - in which case I'll do so begrudgingly :) ). I like to restore whole neighborhoods and join boards of organizations that need help. Hide the broken stuff from me unless you want me poking around with it. Except for people - people need to fix themselves (but I'll be right there with you the whole way).I lead a pretty healthy life. I work out daily, eat well, and have more energy than most 10 people (this is both good and bad). :) I don't expect my partner to be as focussed on health as I am but I expect to live a long happy life and would certainly like my partner with me through it all - so health consciousness is important. When I am in a relationship I'm attentive, caring, and committed - and I'm looking for the same in my partner.I've traveled all over the world and even lived in Japan for a while. I've had three very successful careers, restored two beautiful old houses, and have spent most of the past 10 years giving back. I'm very high energy and passionate - but also very calm and laid back. I'm looking to meet some nice people on this site and to make some new friends - but my dating goals are to find someone to share the rest of my life with. I would like to have a family and I'm finally ready to settle down. I'd like to meet someone who already has children or would like to.If any of this sounds at all interesting to you please send me a note - I'd like to hear from you. I like to take first dates slow. Friendship first. Coffee or a glass of wine in a quiet spot where we can talk and get to know each other. Once I get to know what someone likes I enjoy planning more interesting / creative future dates. I prefer someplace quiet and good for conversation to someplace noisy - at least until we have a chance to learn more about each other. I think communication is important and it's one of the things I'm looking for early in a relationship. .

    I have been in the area about a year now. Have lived/worked in PA, DE, CT, TX and MS before here.(comfortable with many cultures) Not really into lurking around the bar scene but not averse to visiting either. I have a couple step kids (teenagers) in MS. that I like to hang out with when I can. A couple things I have found around town that I like to do are 5- Mostly intersted in meeting someone who is self sufficient and likes to have fun. I can be serious when the situation requires but generally don't take things to serious and think life is too short to worry about things all the time. Guess ideal first date would be lunch or drink after work. Take it from there if things work out.

    Hello. I love being outside when the weather is warm and love gardening and doing outdoor/home improvement projects. I probably drop the F bomb way too much. I like a cold beer and a good movie. Really into foreign films, documentaries and films of substance. Although I think Caddy Shack and Animal House are great movies. I'm opinionated and lean left. I have cats and like all animals. I like learning new things and get along best with more Type B personalities, but that's not a deal breaker as long you're smart. I recycle and compost. I don't use chemicals around the yard, but I'm not a granola. Well, I'm kind of a granola. I enjoy home improvement projects cuz I get to use my tools. Especially love my chain saw. Tools to men are like shoes to women, we can't have enough. I'm pretty fit and like that in a woman. I'm pretty low maintenance and looking for kind of the same.I'm finishing my PhD in Exercise Physiology at the U so I stay pretty busy, but I still find time to travel. I just don't have anyone to go with. I'm originally from Orange County, CA so I like the sun. I try to go somewhere to scuba dive.P.S. Please don't judge me cuz I like to dress my cats up and have tea parties. They love it!! Drinks, hike, dinner at the taco cart
