How would you describe yourself?
It's easy to feel comfortable around me. More than a few people have described me as "calm" or "calming". The words "gentle", "sweet" and "warm" have also been bandied about. I guess I also have a kind and trustworthy look because no matter where I am people end up telling me their life stories within minutes of meeting me... Or they ask for directions... Or ask me to watch their kids for a second (seriously). I have also taught many elderly women how to use washing machines, cart returns and ATMs. I don't mind, this helps in my line of work (human resources) and it can be pretty interesting (especially with the directions since I'm terrible at giving them)...
I love being active and living a healthy lifestyle. I am a gym regular and my big thing for the past couple of years has been clean eating. That is mainly for when I cook for myself though because I love trying various fare around the Hudson Valley & NYC and I don't get that crazy about those ingredients (although I should - I saw a disturbing report on frozen yogurt machines that rocked my world). I am actually into golf, well, the driving range. I have no technique, my own driver and a bucket of balls right now - no set of clubs just yet.
I love anything outdoorsy - I like to snowshoe and tube in the winter and I love to hike (not climb), camp out and do different charity runs in the spring/summer months. Festivals are great too - I love craft beer festivals and various ethnic, flower and food festivals. If I am in bed watching Netflix on a Saturday or a Sunday afternoon then I am probably suffering from some illness. I don't like to waste my weekends. I'm not really a night scene/club/bar/loud party person though. Having a nice low key dinner/hang out session with friends is great, but I'm not a club-hopping scene-ster and I'm not much of a drinker (craft beer/hard cider tasting is fun and tasty - standing around with a mixed drink, not so much)...
My favorite music is rock and any rock subgenre - alternative, classic, metal - The Cure, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Depeche Mode, Tori Amos... I am interested in banjo music right now - I think NPR has brainwashed me. I have been searching for "bluegrass festivals" lately. Other recent searches include: "root beer tastings", "events in Nashville", "covered bridges", "clams casino pizza", "Waterfire Providence RI", "condos in Rockwall, TX"...
I am looking for
Someone who is 6'0" or over (I'm 5'9"), honest, educated, intelligent, has a sense of humor, is warm and affectionate (very important), understanding, not at all pretentious - not "cool" and doesn't try to be, unattached. Those are all qualities I possess as well. Must be FUN! Fun is an important part of a romance... Going to the batting cage and teaching me the perfect swing, putting the straw in my drink because my hands are full, making sure you have almond milk in the fridge because I like it in my oatmeal - real romance is also in the little things.
I like a busy man, as I'm usually busy too with work, volunteering, being outside, so I don't mind. Not so much that we take the relationship for granted though, there is always time for love. I also have no desire to be one half of that obnoxious power couple who is always "on" either (the INFP thing again). I'm not into "text only/text all day and night" situations either. I'd like to meet sooner rather than later. I'd like a quiet, peaceful togetherness, private jokes, being part of that couple that people wonder about...
Being part of a mutual support and encouragement system would be just awesome...
