Man. 40 years old. Zodiac sign: Aquarius.
Looking for: woman. In age: 37-47
I am an easy going and fun guy who is looking for companionship. I am 40 although I don't look (or act it) most times. Most people have a difficult time believing I am not younger so I intend to enjoy that for as long as possible. I am looking to spend quality time with someone without expectation, judgement or pressure. Someone to go to a movie or dinner or whatever fun stuff we can think of. Maybe getting snuggled up under a blanket with some popcorn and a movie. Maybe a festival. or talking over coffee. Who knows? I am not looking for a marriage or anything too serious but I am open to where matters of the heart lead. I am also not looking to date a bunch of women either. Quality time is what I am seeking. Good conversation over a glass of wine or a long drive in the country talking. Or just hanging out having some fun with someone I enjoy. Sitting across a table from someone who is interested in what I have to say and who is saying interesting things. I am educated and professional and am self employed in the graphic design and marketing industry. Being self employed gives me a flexible schedule although sometimes deadlines must be met. Also being self employed I am no millionaire. I live a modest lifestyle and am happy that way. I can be goofy and silly at times but then other times I love to just sit with a book and enjoy the quiet. A good sense of humor ( I love to laugh) and a little bit of a sarcastic edge is a must. The ability to have stimulating conversation is also a must. I love to learn as much as I can about everything and I am also a history guy.I am honest, compassionate, affectionate and loyal to a fault at times. I love kids and am okay with someone who has children but I prefer to save meeting them for a little later.I have been a musician virtually my entire life so music is pretty much at my core. A woman who knows her music is a big plus in my book. I will admit to publicly disparaging many pop songs yet singing them endlessly when nobody is around. I'm really not into the bar scene. I have spent many years playing the local bars and at this point would prefer a wine tasting or art show as opposed to a nightclub. Although I do occasionally like to go out and party it up like everyone else, I will admit to also being somewhat of a homebody. I do like to get out and try new things though. I can get dressed up with the best of them but prefer jeans and a t-shirt. Who doesn't though right? I have spent a long time as a rock musician but these days prefer quieter acoustic stuff. I also love movies. Especially really bad movies. Bad scary movies, bad sci-fi... Whatever. As long as the acting is awful and the budget was low. I also like good and great movies as well of course. Not much of a TV guy as I feel that movies are far more engaging but I do have my guilty TV pleasures. Other things I enjoy are reading, restoring and decorating my home, looking for antiques, building ***, quality time with friends and family and way too much more to list. Not really a sports guy (except boxing) but I can get into them at times and can enjoy the experience.My ideal date would of course love some of the same things I do while offering new experiences and opportunities. I would love to expand my horizons and want to learn about what interests others. Smart women are the best. I love a girl that can be a princess at times but still willing to get their hands dirty. I am not a big burly guy so I like a petite woman. I don't workout 10 days a week or participate in triathalons but I am slender, fit and try to eat healthy. That's pretty much it in a nutshell. The end of my novel. If you like what you just read, get in touch. Let's see what happens. I think a great first date would be just hanging out and getting to know each other in a relaxed environment. Somewhere we are both comfortable. Coffee or wine? Someplace with a great feel that makes you not want to leave. Or doing something fun or silly like an arcade or people watching. People always go to movies where you can't talk, clubs where you can't talk and restaurants no real people can actually afford, while wearing clothes they would otherwise never wear to try to make a good impression or pretend they are wealthier than they are. I do OK but I am not rich and not trying to pretend to be. But I have a good time anyway. I like to get dressed up but prefer a t-shirt and jeans like everyone else. So let's just do that. I would rather meet the real and everyday somebody and have them meet the real and everyday me.

35yo Gentleman here who lives and works in DC. Love nice dinners out or at home (yes I'm a good cook who misses cooking as often as I used too). I like sports (NYG,NYM, NYR), politics, jazz, singing, kissing, cuddling, massages, showers, traveling, sun soaking, boat drinks. As for music... Sinatra is tops!. I'm also a dog lover who doesn't have one :(. But I do have lots of doggy buddies through friends and family. I am not currently in the best shape and am working to be the fit chap I once was.. the good life has graced me with a belly! Otherwise I'm pretty solid :) I would love to meet someone who is loving, likes to laugh & enjoys romance . I am looking for someone to share my crazy life with. And perhaps make a cute kid or two :) It would have to depend on the day.. and the lady. It could be coffee, Martini's, lunch/dinner- Or all the above! I wouldn't be down for skydiving or bunjee jumping (never typed bunjee before so I probably spelled it wrong) however. At least not on the first date!

I'm definitely a social person but tend to be the quiet one in the group, it just takes me a bit to warm up to someone new. On an average weekend you can find me checking out a band - probably country but anything good will do, looking for a new restaurant, sharing a round of drinks with friends or just lounging on the couch watching a movie or catching up on the DVR. During the week you'll catch me at the gym - sometimes before work, sometimes after; out for country night (Tuesday) and playing team trivia (Thursday and maybe one other night) or playing sports. Beyond that, I'll try pretty much anything. I also like to travel and it would be fun to have someone to site see with. I've seen most of the US and a few other places. I don't know if I would saying cooking is an interest but on that note I do cook - prefer the grill to the stove (I also clean up after myself but I am by no means a clean freak). Aside from that some of my interests include history and nature and those are a couple of my favorite cable channels. I'm not a big sitcom fan - more drama / action/adventure / sci-fi - and sports of course, mainly football and UFC. I can talk about almost any topic and enjoy a good conversation - serious or not. I'm not a fan of "20 question" type conversations though…maybe a result of my job. I have my masters degree in IT and have been working in IT for over 12 years (in law firms); aside from that I have been in the military and worked in law enforcement.I am very close to my family and will always be there for them. Both of my parents are disabled and I do as much as I can to help them when they need it. I have a younger sister and a niece. I have great friends and consider myself very lucky in that respect. *Demonstration of my sense of humor* Doesn't everyone say this if you're going to? I mean, is it kind of redundant right - like someone is going to say "I hate my family and have no friends"?? What am I looking for? The romantic in me (don't ask me to admit to that in public) is looking for that love at first site (?), happily ever after thing. Is that out there? Maybe…but I'm not in a rush, I guess it's one those things I'd rather do right the first time. I believe in finding someone who compliments my lifestyle as well as I compliment theirs. We don't have to have everything in common but at least a few things would be good! ;) That said, I'm looking for someone who I can have a good conversation with about anything or just sit back and relax and stare at the stars on a clear night. A sense of humor is required - hopefully odd or at least capable to dealing with mine (and my dad's)! Hopefully we can learn something from each other as well. A first date should be about getting to know each other better. As much as I enjoy concerts and sporting events, I'd rather keep it low-key - something where we can chat without yelling over whatever is happening. An idea that would be fun is checking out a museum, dinner, coffee shop, walking around - hopefully the weather will make that a more pleasant experience soon!
