I've reached the point where I'm ready to meet someone I could spend a lifetime with. I like my partners to be people I'd hang around with even if we weren't having sex. When I go out, usually some friends and I hang out together and laugh for a few hours. The philosophy I live by is that you don't have to be loud and gregarious to be interesting. For me a perfect date is one where we head out with a plan, but we go where the night takes us. I like to build a strong relationship over time. If you contact me please give me some time to reply as I'm pretty busy. I look forward to seeing how the online dating world works. I'm not changing my life, but I want to explore a few new options and see how it works out.
