I'm a real, living breathing man, looking for the same in a woman.

If you are hoping to meet a good man, in person, it's worth your time to read more. Even if I don't think we're a match, I'll treat you with respect and, most importantly, I'll be honest. I won't lead you on; and I'm not here to harvest your data.

I'm looking for the love of my life. It could be you. These dating sites aren't magic; as with anything of value, you'll get out what you put in.

I'm smart, and motivated. I have a good sense of humor, and I'm pleasant to be around.

I have my own business, and a student zero debt. I'm not rich, but I do well enough.

I hope you enjoy good conversation. I'm a reader, so I've always got interesting things to talk about. I enjoy music and movies, board games and card games, walking in the evening, and drinking a beer or two in the hot tub before bedtime.

I like to sing. You don't have to be a singer too but, if you are, it will be so much fun to harmonize around a campfire while we share a blanket under the stars.

We don't have to see eye to eye on everything, but we should at least see the world somewhat the same, if we expect this to work.

My honor is very important to me. If I give you my word, you may rely on it. I will expect the same from you.

My sense of humor is not politically correct. If you can appreciate jokes without being offended, we'll get along great.

I love dogs, as long as they are not yappers or ankle biters. I might tolerate a cat, but I don't prefer them.

There's a lot more I could say, but that's enough to get us started. If you're still reading, it's time to talk.

If we're far apart, a video call will help give us both confidence in who we're talking to. I subscribe to a service that let's me quickly spin up a private area for chat and video. It's free to you as my guest, and you can use any browser, I only need to send you a link. I can't use it to track you (or you me), so it keeps us both anonymous until we're ready to take the next step, which will hopefully be lunch or dinner in a public place.

What are you waiting for? I promise I won't think you're forward if you message me first :
