About Me

Been a while since I tweaked my profile; figured it was time...I'm a single dad of an autistic child. I quit a $100,***a year job to have that child with me, so that should tell you where he ranks. I'm easy to get along with. I'm quiet, and while I love conversation, I also like quiet time at home. I very seldom drink, and I don't do drugs. As a rule of thumb, I don't like many people. I don't hand our very many pails or shovels to my sandbox; I'm not opposed to sharing, just very selective about who I share with.I spent a lot of years as a paramedic. I've had a six week old baby die on me, so trust me, nothing you can say will shock me. I blame being a medic (although I loved every minute of it), for making me the person I am today. I see a world changing in front of my eyes, and I don't like the changes.Not into "big girls" (sorry if that bruised an ego or 25, just the way it is). I'm sure there's a guy out there for you, it just isn't me... I'm not a sex freak at all, not 18 anymore. There's a time and a place for everything, so attraction is certainly important. Did I fail to mention that I'm sarcastic, cynical and outspoken? I'm also not into people of the same sex or inter-racial dating. Again, fine for some, just not my thing. I don't care a thing about threesomes, swinging or trading partners. I'm a creature of habit. I like to watch the same old(er) movies over and over, I have a pretty set list of TV shows that I watch, and I listen to the same music all the time. I like the restaurants that I like, and while I'm not opposed to learning about new places, I'm perfectly content with the ones that I frequent. I'm not into staying up all night, if I have my choice, in bed by 11pm is fine by me, 10pm is even better. I know how to cook, clean, pay bills, budget money, do laundry and raise my child. I don't really "need" anything from a relationship, other than the companionship component, Things go wrong, and people change (if they didn't, I wouldn't be divorced). Fortunately, I'm lucky enough to have an ex-wife who is a best friend these days (which is important, as we each have one child from our marriage--..). I want someone who can read me. I'm not a complicated person, in fact I always say that I am simply complex. I (like everyone else) have my quirks; figure them out, and I read like a well written book. I may do something a certain way 99 times, and then different the 100th time, but rest assured, I had a good reason. I want the person who KNOWS when that 100th time is coming, and without having to ask, just understands WHY I did whatever I did differently.I'm certain there's someone, somewhere, that would change my mind about what I want out of life, but in the 4 years since my divorce, I ain't found her yet. Ok, here we go. I like the normal stuff, dinner, walk on the beach, drinks. Concerts, amusement parks, the zoo. Busch Gardens is a fave. To me, it's not WHAT you do, it's WHO you do it with. If I meet a girl with no legs, probably NOT going to suggest water skiing... I usually leave it up to them anyway.

    Guess I am the guy who is a friend to all but not the one that they want romantically. I am fine with that. I would rather have a great friend than anything else. I feel that this is the beginning basis for any relationship. I am a bit rough around the edges but do clean up nicely and can hold my own in society. I have a decent sense of humor albeit a bit off color on occasion.. I love animals, kids, the outdoors, cooking, reading and many other activities. The thrill and majesty of making it to the summit of a mountain is one of my favorite feelings. I love meeting different people from all over the world and hearing about their culture. I have traveled extensively overseas in the past and have a broad base of experience with different cultures. I feel that all have something to offer in the walk of life and that we should all learn to accept people for their differences and to respect these differences. You never know what you may pass up or who may actually make a positive change in your life if you don't give them a chance... Feel free to just drop me a line and say "Hi". Even if we just end up as friends means that we have made better day for both. If you like hiking/camping in the Adirondacks then lets chat about favorite hikes/places visited. Have a great day!!! Maybe dinner, a nice walk, go for a long ride and talk. I want to get to know the person that I am with. I like to find out what they are interested in and the things that they like to do.

    As I've entered my 40's, I realize the importance of not sweating the small stuff. I am trying to enjoy life as it happens. Striving to be mellow and stress-free. Wending my way through life, so to speak.I've done a lot of traveling, including around the United States, Europe, Africa and the Caribbean. At home, I own a couple of businesses and am pretty busy. Being self-employed, I can take time when I need it. The flip side is that I am often busy at times when others have off. Some people may not like that, but I like being my own boss.I like most music as long as it's not physically jarring to my ears, but prefer folk, alt/indie rock, classic rock, bluegrass, etc. I also like R&B, classical and some country, although the commercial stuff is too much. And, of course, the Beatles.I started going grey a while ago, and then my hair started receding. That would have really bothered me twenty years ago, but the funny thing is in my 40's, it really doesn't matter too much! I like getting older. Something low key that would allow for some good conversation. Probably a drink or coffee at a nice place that is not so loud that we can't hear each other.
