I like lots of things, a kind word, a sweet smile, a delicious home-cooked meal, reading the Sunday paper together with my mate at a local coffee shop, hiking in nature, swimming in the warm surf, sitting next to my beloved just about anywhere, going to the movies, playing intellectual games, considerate people, most any kind of animals, barbecue, traveling, staying home, dinner parties, architecture/design/construction, art deco, post modern, yoga. Not lost when I'm not with him, but it's so very nice when he's by my side.

I have a very definite dating purpose. I am looking for a man who is smart, confident, self-sufficient and giving. A man who knows how to respect, appreciate and love a woman. A man who not only wants to take, but also to give something in return (Remember wisdom: before you drink from a vessel, you must fill it up).
