I love life – Perhaps the essayist E.B. White, described lifes' balance and choices best as he said: “I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.”
And what of your choices . . . improve or enjoy the world?
In truth, I’ve been more focused on fun and discovery than perseverance or achievement of late. With time on my hands, and few friends or close relationships (the result of too much relocation) I’ve been languishing in neutral too long. I seek to meet an interesting, bright, funny, passionate and compassionate woman who is educated, beautiful and sexy with a desire to have some fun and share herself.
I am not a ‘player’ but do like to play!
Lots of experiences, hundreds of stories, funny, with a fun dry humor and an obtuse way of looking at the world, these are all a part of who I am.
Sometimes trouble, but often fuel for fun; My appetite for life is large with a broad set of interests; I also enjoy expanding to new things. Maybe this is what keeps it fresh and allows me to seek new horizons; it may help me gain and keep your interest.
I CONFESS - I am a romantic. I like lots of different music, performing arts, movies, television and sports. I find romance in sights, sounds, scents and feelings. I am outgoing and confident with an impatient side. I love groups, any size, and will usually fit in comfortably thanks to lots of public speaking.
Urban in desire but from, and able to enjoy rural life. I’m an open and honest professional, and like most, I’ve maneuvered through, around or over my share of bumps in the road and so far have come out the other end ready for more and wiser.
Are you confident of what you want next? I'm not - and that's not that new for me. Frankly, I think it takes some of the excitement, discovery and flexibility from life's endeavors - good surprises are fun! Those who think they know me would probably not see some of this as representative of me but I'm pretty sure the spontaneity is me.
CAREER: Executive with broad experiences in start-up, turn-around & next-level growth situations in SMB and Enterprise companies in multiple communication environments.
My work covers 5 disciplines: Operations, Mktg., Finance, Customer Svc. and Sales.
ETHNICITY:
Scotch and Irish ancestry with 6 generations history in the Midwest, I've lived in large Urban Metroplexes where differences are valued, and more fun. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and my eyes are wide open.
MY RELIGION: I love church! It's hard to remember how much since I haven't been in so long; but, I know its fantastic value and know the small magic that happens each time. I'm refreshed when I attend. Actually, I regret that I let myself be pulled away.
MY EDUCATION: Oklahoma State University - where I gained a hunger for life, drank volumes of 'red' Coors, grew up some, studied girls more than engineering and worked three jobs at once because I had to.
FAVORITE PLACES: I have some favorites - just not here. HELP ME OUT!
Hawaii 5 times, Puerto Rico, Artic, England, Virgin Islands, Bahamas, Jamaica, lots of U.S. locations and some great golf courses in the world.
FAVORITE THINGS: A 2 Z -Food/ Italian, Mexican, Greek, Indian. A fall evening'S drive at havest time in the Midwest. A rare 'Hoar Frost,' a bright clear night with 1000's of stars or sand between my toes and condensation on glass filled with ice.
I love seasons; a long drive in my convertible top down, Sinatra, Bennett, Simon, Dylan, Domingo - day or night.
LAST READ: I read nearly every day - many authors: Sparks, Grisham, Z. Grey, Cook, Koontz, King, Crichton, DeMille, Biographys - Mornings on Horsebak - T. Roosevelt, Pat Riley, Jack Benny, C. Kuralt. 1k volumes. Just read B. Dylan's Chronicles.
My bottom line is my search for a life partner and Marriage. I seek a "GREAT WOMAN" to share life with and am prepared to offer a meaningful relationship as defined in my "Gentleman's Creed."
My creed of behavior
LIVING AS AND BEING A GENTLEMAN!
I'm confident that I am at the best place in my life to Love, support my partner unselfishly, share all there is to share and put her happiness ahead of or equal to mine.
I’ll be committed to doing what needs to be done at home; providing a safe and secure relationship of comfort, consideration and trust will be my most important responsibility – I have no intention of allowing failure for any reason.
She will be proud to introduce me to her family and friends and I will endeavor to bring a smile to her face as often as possible.
I am proud of being a gentleman and will enjoy opening doors, walking on the traffic site of the street and generally putting her interests before my own.
I will not feel threatened when we are apart; I will engage us in dialog and conversation for a fulfilling life and ensure my open, caring listening when she has something to share or a need gone wanting.
My most important commitment is to communicate while gently and respectfully encouraging her to participate in shared dialog to solve problems that will come up between and around us. These are meant as my standard to live by.
