How would you describe yourself?
Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like nobody's watching... This is pretty much my life motto. I wake up every day choosing to enjoy it to the fullest!
My career is in higher education, as I work in upper administration at a public university. Although I value higher education and am proud of being the first member of my family to graduate college and the only one with advanced degrees, I don’t believe intelligence is the exclusive providence of those with a degree.
My interests include travel, live music and sporting events, enjoying the outdoors as much as possible, and spicy foods.
I travel a lot as part of my career in education consulting. I've spent time in China, Haiti, Italy, and India, but the two locations where I travel most frequently are Rwanda and Jamaica, each of which I visit annually.
When here in the Peach State, I will be enjoying the outdoors playing tennis or disc golf, biking a trail or hiking near waterfalls in North Georgia... or just grading papers at home with either a ballgame or Adult Swim on in the background.
I work out at the gym 4-5 times a week. I enjoy being in good physical shape regardless of whether I'm alone or in a relationship, but I am also motivated to 'look good' for the woman I am with.
Since it frequently comes up in the comments of others' profiles, let me be explicit: dating Black women is not a "curiosity" or "something new" for me, it's been the vast majority of my adult dating life. I'm not on this site seeking "my first Black woman," I'm here hoping to find romance with "my last and forever Black woman" :-)
I am looking for
My ideal partner is a woman who shares an optimistic outlook on life, an intellectual curiosity for diverse cultures and knowledge, someone who enjoys trying and learning from new experiences, and who doesn’t take herself too seriously. She has a sexy personality, a beautiful smile, and loves to laugh.
Communication skills are a prerequisite, as unlike the stereotypical male, I genuinely enjoy conversation. A strong sense of humor is also a must - silly, sarcastic, politically incorrect - any kind of wit is appreciated.
I’d prefer my partner be physically active. The woman I am attracted to doesn't have to be a 'gym rat,' but she does need to be able to and interested in activities where we walk or bike or hike or dance.
We don't have to share every hobby in common - one of the best parts of a relationship for me is being able to grow and learn from the divergent interests of my partner. So long as our values are consistent, our passion for each other can nurture a great relationship.
**My dating preferences and history are almost exclusively Black (African, Afro-Caribbean, and African-American). No disrespect intended to anyone else, so please respect my choices. There’s a reason why I am a member of this particular dating site, and no others.
**Three additional limits that experience has taught me need to be explicitly mentioned here:
1) if your conservative politics are the reason you're "into white guys," i.e., you don't feel comfortable around Black people and would rather spend time with President Trump than with President Obama, I'm not your guy.
2) If you can *only* be with a man who shares your exact same religious beliefs and attends the church you attend just as often as you do, then I'm probably not your guy. I was raised in a Christian home and spent the first 20 years of my life attending services weekly. I feel very comfortable with my own beliefs and like to think I treat others in ways consistent with the teachings of Jesus, but no longer choose to confirm my beliefs for others by sitting in a pew every Sunday. As you can see in my comments about travel, I MUCH prefer to serve others, than preach to them. If you are strong in your faith and attending services regularly is part of your commitment, that is not a problem for me - I am happy to participate when the focus is on service projects.
3) To all the beautiful ladies who live in Africa and show their attraction to my profile by sending me flirts: I do genuinely appreciate the gesture. I have dated African women before and do travel to the continent annually. However, my experience with long-distance relationships has taught me that I need to be physically present with the woman I'm dating, at least on a semi-regular basis. And I'm definitely not going to know whether we're a match until I spend time with her in person - no amount of virtual interaction will make up for that. So unless you have plans to visit the US soon, I'm probably going to kindly decline your flirt. But I do wish you the best of luck in your search and if you see me in your country, don't hesitate to say hey 😊
