I am a man with morals, principles, & values that I stand firm upon and do not stray. It has been said I am a keeper, but I do not want to be kept I seek to walk hand in hand with someone special as a unit{a couple} with a special bond in search of goals, dreams & precious moments. To be able to stand fast & strong together when life's downs come around a woman by my side & me by hers full knowing that when the storm ends we can get back to the better side of life. I search for and will give in return the same & more someone respectful, honorable, genuine & true; Affectionate, kind, devoted & romantic on occasion; With passion, virtue, compassion & empathy; a lady who can get a little dirt under her nails but does not freak about it . Someone who can go from jeans to a gown in an hour notice because I have a surprise night on the town planned for her. I do like long hair & respect the time you need to tend to it but I also like to help keep it in check. What I try to say is I will go the extra steps in all aspects to meet my lady and lend a hand where I can to make life flow a bit easier . I do need someone who can say what they mean, & mean what they say by standing by their convictions. Looking to take the long walk hand in hand through the shores of time with all its waves of emotion and turmoil! Shall we stand together side by side to venture the tides of life & all it will bring to us. I am MORE THAN READY! Wanting the love of a partner, friendship of a companion, & connection of a soulful heart. ONE of the FEW the PROUD Once a Marine always a Jarhead! YES Ladies I am house broken too.

The Real Deal

I'm the man who will put his head on your shoulder,
not because he's sleepy, but because he wants
to be closer to you.

I'm the man who likes to be kissed in the rain
more than inside your bedroom or in an
expensive restaurant.

I'm the man who says,"Okay, but you owe me...",
not because I actually want something, but because
it means I get to spend more time with you.

I'm the man you can take absolutely anywhere
and I will have fun because it means I am spending
time with you.

I'm the man who is incredibly picky, but when I find
someone I like I want to spend the whole night
curled up in their arms.

I'm the man who never forgets
all the sweet little things
you do for him.

I'm the man who never gives up
hope even when I tell others I have.

I'm the man who once I let you into my heart,
there's always a place there withyour name on it.
And even if we spend time apart,
I'm the man who never forgets you.

I'm the man who loves to end
a hug with a kiss.

I'm the man who you can talk
to about anything.

I'm the man who will brag
about you to all of my friends.

I'm the man who will listen
to you talk.

I'm the man who loves it when
you hug me for no apparent reason.

I'm the man who loves it when
you hug me from behind.

I'm the man who loves you for you,
and doesn't care
what other people say about us.

I'm the man who loves it when
you introduce me to your friends
as your boyfriend.

I'm the man who loves the feeling
when you take me by the hand
without saying a word.

I'm the man who loves it when you
give me that smile
for no apparent reason.

I'm the man who thinks the world of you.
All I want is for us to be
together.
