After reading about a hundred of these things, it becomes obvious that everyone is looking for basically the same thing. Nobody seems to want an abusive, unmotivated, sloth who slams doors in their face. Go figure. Everyone wants "chemistry", and they want it yesterday. But, I believe that true, lasting chemistry comes with time and effort ... I have a good sense of humor which is on the dry side, and I laugh a lot. There are several TV shows I find really funny like The Office and Family Guy.I am best described as being active, quietly confident, laid-back, smart, and funny. I consider myself to be a well balanced person who's open-minded and has a variety of interests. Spending time with family and close friends is always high up on my list. These days that also includes going out for dinner, cooking in, I also read a lot. If you go to trivia night at a bar, you'll want me on your team. While I can be outgoing and energetic, I also have my moments of quiet contemplation. I am perfectly fine with a comfortable silence on occasion for fun I like to take weekend trips to the beach I'm looking to meet a man who's down to earth, likes to stay active but also enjoys relaxing days/evenings at home. Someone who likes to keep an open mind and has a positive attitude about life including all of its experiences. Someone who has a wonderful sense of humor, loves to laugh, appreciates the arts, and enjoys diversity in his family and friends. Someone who is passionate about 'something' in his life; whether it be his family, friends, career or hobby. Someone who is patient, spontaneous and romantic enough to appreciate a nice lady Finally, I am looking for someone to share life with. For me, that progression starts with building a great friendship, dating and all that follows. As the saying goes "Love Is Just Friendship Set On Fire"!
