| ABOUT ME |

| I enjoy the outdoors....hunting, fishing, camping, walks in the woods, etc. I also like to go to rummage sales and flea markets, enjoy all kinds of pets, jigsaw puzzles, working on & repairing computers, furniture refinishing, photography, traveling and gambling on occasion. There is always so much more to enjoy in life when you have someone special with you to share it with. Romantic getaways, snuggling to a romantic movie while sharing a good bottle of wine, a walk hand-in-hand to anywhere or nowhere, laying back on a blanket watching the stars on a warm summer night...the possibilities are endless. Life is too short to play games. Honesty and a positive outlook on life is a must. I realize things don't always go the way we hope, but it's how one deals with the cards that are dealt that makes a person who they are. I look for what's inside someone's heart. I have been alone for a long time now, still waiting to meet that one special woman that has the qualities I look for. I won't "settle" for the sake of being with someone. I'd rather be alone than with the wrong person. I admit I am rather picky, but I don't expect to find perfection, no one can qualify as being "perfect" in every way. I know what I want and what will make me happy. I am a young looking 50 (have been told my pictures don't do me any justice, that I look better in person) and I refuse to grow old until I have someone to grow old with. I understand how our past experiences shape our lives of today. I'm sure everyone has been subjected to the pains of love and let those pains control how we perceive the dating scene. So many people are afraid to allow themselves to love again, for fear of getting hurt. Because of that, people try to pretend they are happy being alone and won't even take the chance to meet someone that could possibly be that one person that can really make them happy and fullfill thier life. As scarey as it is, we have to take a chance sometime in life if we are going to find that true happiness we all want and deserve. I myself find it hard to take that chance after being lied to, taken advantage of and walked on by women. I have a kind, gentle and caring heart. I have been told I am quite unique, in the sense that I am not like so many of the jerks that women always seem to find on here or in the real world. I am not interested in casual dating and one night stands. I am looking for a serious long-term relationship. I do not "come on" to women online, so I very rarely IM anyone...though IM's are always welcomed. |
