It has occurred to me that since more people read these short essays than I first thought, I figured that maybe I should provide a little more detail, however I still believe that most people men and women make their initial decision based off of looks. However if someone sees a picture of someone that appeals to them I guess that reading a little bit about that person is a good next step; if for no other reason to see if that person can type in complete sentences with proper spelling. At this point I guess I should say a little about myself so here goes. First off I have a stable career, and have been employed by the same company for almost 27 years. My job has recently allowed me to travel to Europe quite a bit in the last two years. I have also been to Haiti twice in the past two years on mission trips, and these trips really helped me to see just how good we have it here. I look forward to a return trip ASAP. I am an extremely giving person and will give until it hurts if I know the receiver truly appreciates it. For those of you who are familiar with the five love languages the one I speak the most is acts of service. I would rather show you how I feel than tell you however I am working on doing a better job of verbalizing my feelings also. If we ever meet you may have to tell me to shut up or I may talk your ear off. My interest are quite varied, and I can feel at home in many different settings be it a trip to a flea market or a classical music concert dressed to the nines. Last but certainly not least I'm looking for someone who can be a friend first, and I don't mean FWB or bed buddy or booty call or one night stand. If I have learned nothing else it is this; a relationship that is based on sex too early is like a house built on sand, it will not survive once the first storm comes along, it will simply wash away. Something both people can agree on that makes you feel safe. We can work out the details if we get to that point.

I've been a teacher now for about 22 years. Still dig it! I have two awesome kids that are my life. My son is 11, and loves baseball. He's pretty descent at it too. My daughter is 13 and perfect. She's into volleyball, and I spend a lot of time chasing or transporting her. Myself, when I'm not working, doing chores, or kids' stuff, then I'm either hunting, fishing, or working oustside with a Giants game on the radio. Huge Giants fan. I love to cook, hang out at the house, have bbqs with friends and family, and love a good beer! I like all kinds of music, but prefer older 80s and 90s rock; all depends on the mood. People say I'm easy going, real, and down to earth. I wouldn't mind finding a long term relationship. Someone to share things, laugh with, travel, and basically just enjoy life with. Life is too short for drama, so I don't need any of that. But if you want to laugh, and have a good conversation over a beer or something, then I'm in!Anyway, thanks for taknig the time to read.

I’ve met a lot of women on this site but didn’t find what I am looking for. I even quit looking because I was so frustrated. I became involved with my best friend, but it turns out we’re better friends; no sexual chemistry and without the chemistry, it was impossible to move forward. Anyway… I’m back trying to find the one. More about me… I’m not perfect, but I try real hard to be a good man. I'm an IT consultant with 17 years of consulting experience along with 16 years IT experience working for the DOD. I am currently between contracts looking to secure another contract opportunity, which subsequently has slowed down my attempts at dating. I have a 17-year old daughter who I love with all my heart but I rarely see. She works and lives with her boyfriend so I’m the last person on her list. She will be going to college in the fall and then it’s just me. I know a lot of people but have few “true” friends, which is somewhat less than I prefer in the grand scheme of an enriched life. Being single has been difficult at times and I find the only place to meet woman, who aren’t “frightened” by men, is in bars. I don’t know why but women seem to get freaked out if you approach them anywhere else (book stores, coffee shops, grocery stores, women’s restrooms….just kidding). Although I enjoy live music and go out on weekends to see bands at local bars, I’d rather spend my time outdoors, camping, barbequing, and picnicking with a quality woman. I am a songwriter / musician too but don’t play in a band anymore; I just write and record at home. I also write poetry and editorials when inspiration grabs me. I’m looking to enrich my life and without that special one or being with my daughter, it’s nearly impossible. I’m truly a social person but living a fairly solitary life unless I go out on the weekends but that gets old when you are alone the majority of the time.I don’t like beating around the bush so be direct with me if you want to know something. I’m direct and I find that being honest is truly the only way to communicate. If you are looking for someone who is honest, faithful, integrity-minded, intelligent, funny, talented, goofy, playful (not always) and who is serious about finding that one person to share a life with, drop me a line. I hope to hear from you.A couple of closing statements to manage your time as well as mine: if you’re not smiling in your photos, don’t waste your time contacting me. I’ve learned from personal experience that most women who don’t smile in their photos are generally unhappy and I’m looking for the lighter side of a personality. Also, my daughter is about to start college and I'm not looking to get involved with anyone with children still living at home. I'm looking forward to the freedom being an “empty-nester” offers and hope to find someone with this shared belief. Hmmmm....first date. That could go in a lot of different directions. How about an elegant dinner, sitting next to a fire, drinking some wine, listening to soft music, over candlelight. Visual enticements with me enjoying looking at you, you enjoying looking at me smiling...maybe even seeing a twinkle in your eye. Lot's of genuine laughter throughout the evening...complete with intellectual and stimulating, yet not so serious conversation wrapped in a warm comfortable familiar feeling. Maybe a midnight stroll or carriage ride if the weather permits. To close the night, a warm, sensual, sweet tasting electrified kiss which we are both excited about. Yep, that sounds preetty wonderful to me. If you're uncomfortable with the above, we could go to a regular resteraunt, and maybe to a movie, or a wine-tasting, or a show in the loop, or listen to a blues band in Soulard. There are a lot of wineries in the area, we could check one of them out... How about a cafe in St. Charles?
