In a word, I am REAL. Strong but gentle, trustworthy, confident, and natural. I run my own business without letting it run my life. The true measure of a person comes from who we are inside, not just our skills or abilities. For some reason, people are drawn to me easily. I am my own man, purposeful and well-grounded, resilient, true to myself, with intelligent wit, a subtle sense of humor, and maybe some understated charisma. Reliable, thoughtful, encouraging, a good listener...this also describes me. For my woman I will be her strong shoulder, her safe harbor, and reason to smile. I'm attentive and rather perceptive, the man who will understand her like no one else. Above all I am a GIVER, and looking for the same! It can be the best life for the ones who know how it draws souls closer. Will we be "the ones"?? If so, I think it will be undeniable!

Common values, mutual trust, a home filled with peace, laughter, and unlimited kisses ~ these are my priorities. I know what love IS and what its NOT, and the keys to family happiness. I lead a healthy lifestyle and despite my age, am young in spirit, mind, and body, with qualities rarely found these days. My lady will see this. She will find a new meaning of happiness, and love that breathes life into her soul each day. These are troubled times no matter where you look in the world. But for those well-suited to each other, there will always be reasons for joy. My woman will have what matters most, and find her home in my arms.

A solid foundation in marriage comes with realistic expectations. So I dream in reality you might say. Perfection is not found in imperfect people) The only "ideal" I look for is an ideal UNION. No challenge is too big for the man and woman who cherish what they have. It's mostly about working through problems together with the goal of finding a solution, rather than either one winning.

Thousands of beauties here. But as you may be able to see, I look deeper. For me, who you are as a person is what matters. Is clear and open communication important to you? I think it precedes everything good that follows. Do you find yourself smiling often? Keeping a positive attitude? Do you want the man who feels like your own soul? These things will resonate to the woman for me.

I want someone with a bright spirit. She is genuine, loyal, smart, kind-hearted, and naturally affectionate. Truthful in everything, reasonable, and able to show deep respect for her man. Strong in character but desirous of being weak with her man. The woman for me is mature enough to know the effort involved in building something strong and lasting. Not all days are like heaven, but when two people complement each other..love still feels good. That's real life, and how a great love works! They try to bring out the best in each other, with patience and understanding [..& a little playfulness sprinkled in 😉]
You are not reading the words of an "ideal" guy or someone with his head in the clouds. Just a man unlike others, in ways that will matter to the one for me.


(If you are self-absorbed or the least bit superficial, or if drama tends to follow you––pass me by. We are not a good match)
