Personally 
Let's see the personal side of me...
I like all kinds of music. (See cultural references) I'm very open minded. I like open constructive thought. I like plants. (It's a recent hobby. Not really into pets or kids, but with the right guy anything is possible.)
5'9", 36 waist, glasses or contacts, 200 ish... The rest you can see, no there are no hidden piercings, tattoo's or anything. Not into drugs or alcohol, prefer non smokers, but used to be one about 4 years ago. Not a single cigg since!
Leo for those of you who are interested.
I like to keep things light hearted. I love jokes that actually make me laugh. That's a hard thing to do any more. I take few things seriously, especially myself. What I do take seriously I take very seriously. ie. relationships & career. Shy at first, but only at first. (You would be doing really good to get a kiss on the first date.) I'm honest to a fault. Like to take things slow. Protective of my true heart, but once earned, easily maintained. I like the simple things in life... They are what's important... Shareing sunrises, long walks, open communication. Fairly well read, or so I'd like to think... The sentimental type, and very sensual.
Looking for a long term thing. Goal oriented in relationships. I want a full 3 car garage, and at least a 3 or 4 bedroom house, filled with love.
What I'm looking for... Lets see. That's kinda hard to say really. I hate to say that I'll only date someone if... That just somehow seems wrong to me... Sounds like I'm starting off with limitations. I think that's a bad thing... I'd like to think I'm my own man who likes to decide for myself... Masculine or fem? I try so hard not to classify people. Then different people have their own definitions of it all. I think all that is just a waste of time. I can honestly say I don't wear bra's or wigs and I've never used a Lee press-on in my life. (Probably never will, but never say never, maybe one Halloween or something) However I don't put those down who do, I just accept that it's just something different than me. I do have to admit though I do prefer masculine men.
But here goes... I'll try to start with the easy requirements first...
You need to have all of your own teeth, preferably nicely cleaned and brushed. This refers to your teeth that have grown in your head, not the ones you received at the dentists office.
Expect to follow through with dating me, dont' contact me and then expect me to not want to talk to you agian. So it's probably a good idea to get to know me for me and not how round my ass is... I'm looking for friends first too. If I can't be your friend then how were we to be lovers?
Please have all of your original bodily appendages the way they were given to you. (Pierceings don't count)
A clean felony record, this means that; you can't be on the run from the police, federal army, or any government agency not limited to the USA.
Also you can't be criminally insane. (No I shouldn't have to say thease things but when you feel like your living in a world of children)
Must be open minded, even on the religious front. I won't force my religion on others, nor do I expect that in return. I like my religion, I don't anticipate changing it any time soon. I'm not a satinist or anything & no I don't get into killing helpless animals in the name of any god or diety either.
If there are negative comments you must make, please do so out of earshot of me. (Note the word negative, not the phrase constructively criticizing.)
You need to have a healthy balance between having fun and being responsible. Know when to come back to earth on your own. I'm not going to bring you back from the sky all the time.
I need someone to be their own person. Someone who doesn't rely on others to make decisions for them all the time... A little more than just independent, yes this goes above and beyond co-dependance. Different issue entirely...
I also prefer someone who can communicate their feelings effectively and actively. Don't make me have to ask you to find out if anything is wrong with you. I understand that everyone needs space, maybe some time to work through their issues. However, don't avoid talking to me about anything.
Don't run from me when I tell you how I feel about you.
Just be honest.
Exude non-genderized, personal strength in multiple aspects of one's life. Don't let your personality be controled by the fact that your masculine or feminine.
Don't be excessively masculine, femenine or sexist.
Don't bring the raceist crap to our door. People are of different natures, not always to our likeing. That has nothing to do with one's race, background or personal heritage. Neiter will such things be held for or agains someone in a relationship.
Be proud & happy with who you are.
Please note, all of the above rules are subject to change or to be added to without notice. As with all things rules are allowed to be added or deleted as time passes, the direction of the wind or the phase of the moon. Those without proper protection have been thusly warned.
In other words a nice well rounded, psychologically balanced, well adjusted person who likes to have fun and live life to the fullest and who can still act their age.
(There are more rules in me, it's just getting them out, give me time. This often happens when I'm dating someone, so if your the victim check for updates! Anything could cause this to be updated)
If you'd like to try this thing called love, to see if I'm still single, saying Hi!, or ANYTHING... please E-mail me! I love to get it!!
Ultimately what does it all boil down to?
What can someone expect when I'm "their's"?
Very good question. A lot actually. I give everyone a certain amount of respect & love, merely as being a person who shares this planet with me. However a boyfriend / husband get's an elevated level of love and respect from me to start out with. Those levels can change, even increase, it's up to you as to how long you maintain / retain it.
Yes it may sound that I'm wanting / expecting a lot from a person. However these characteristics are nothing that I don't have myself and expect to offer to my other half. Realize this isn't even all of it, however DON'T let that intimidate you. On top of that if your interested in meeting or hearing from me, contact me after you read my FAQ it will answer many of the commonly asked questions, not only on this site but also in regards to me. Even if you don't think you, "measure up" to what I'm looking for. Each person is unique and has their own characteristics. It's possible you have some interesting characteristics that I haven't listed here. At any rate I'd still like to meet you. Assuming your not asleep yet, & may still have some energy left. An easy way to tell me about you is to fill out my easy questionnaire...
