He's a lover of Lake Michigan and an outdoor person seeking a lady partner for walks, sunsets, pleasant times together and whatever friendship brings. He's easy to talk to and get to know with a keen sense of humor and a quick wit always in good taste. You will find him dependable, respectful, honorable, loyal, honest, trustworthy, educated, intelligent, stable, secure, romantic, caring, intensely passionate, a one woman man and a protector. Chances are very good that you will enjoy his unpretentious company as he is an upbeat person who appreciates life. He brings no drama or baggage and prefers living in the present and looking to the future rather than reliving the past. Ideally his lady complement will reflect some of these qualities, have left the past behind, ready and able to enjoy life and be healthy and active in all aspects of life as he is. Incidentally, he does not watch TV at all.

With this in mind, let's see what he writes from his heart.

I am looking to build a lasting and genuine relationship with a future with a woman with a passion for life and the desire for emotional and physical intimacy. To me, honesty, loyalty and trust are the most important ingredients in building a lasting and loving relationship. I'm slow to anger and quick to forgive and not moody. With high ideals and realistic expectations, I believe being with the one you love is one of the greatest and most satisfying goals in life.

I am young in body, mind and spirit and my personality reflects the same. My health, vitality and virility are youthful as well as my zeal for life. Staying physically fit to meet the demands of life and love are very important to me. I would appreciate my lady to be likewise.

In a serious relationship, you should be able to cherish, nurture and love with all respect and would receive the same in return. I would want you by my side, not in front and not behind. I am looking for that special woman to share life and love.

I want to meet you if you are not too busy with a demanding lifestyle and have the time and desire to devote to building a friendship leading to a permanent relationship. Many want a relationship but either are not able or willing to devote enough time to build it. So, if you are looking for a gentleman to be an occasional convenience after all other obligations or distractions, then you are at the wrong profile as you are obviously too busy or not interested in what I have to offer. What I'm offering is genuine and I ask for the same in return. In a committed relationship, I would not place you at the bottom of the list of things to do and ask that you would not with me.

As a courtesy, please have a recent photo. I like to know who I am writing to. I believe there needs to be an initial attraction. If it is there and mutual, then we can explore our possibilities together. Doing things together is much more enjoyable than doing them alone. I like sharing life, it gives true meaning to living.

Long distance relationships rarely work out, improbable but not impossible. Realistically, we should live close enough to each other to spend that all important time together on a somewhat regular basis. That would be the ideal.

Words to live by for the young at heart.

Life is short! Break the rules!

Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly!

Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably..;

And never regret anything that made you smile.

God determines who walks into your life... It's up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.
