my kids are grown and now it is time for me!! I love my family and have dedicated my whole life to raising two wonderful children. I am a nurse and I love what I do.. Helping people has always given me great gratification. My parents have been married for 51 years, I come from a strong family background. Love to go boating,Diving,Sailing.. The Keys are the best! Or just about anything outside.. I beleive that chemistry is very important, as well as first impressions.. there has to be an initial attraction...I like to work out about 3x a week, but I also work about 65 hours a week, but always keep my w/e open.. After all ya have to stop and smell the roses sometime! O.K. So let me update this thing... I am not looking for a one night stand, I can go find that at any bar any day of the week!!LoL So if that is what you are into, pass me by.. If your girlfriend is still on scene, Not interested.. Not into the DRAMA guys.. I am sorry if this sounds to Blunt.. But now that I have been on Match for a few months, I have had my share of "bad" dates! I thought most were on here looking for the same thing I was.. and you ask what that is? Just a man who knows how to treat me. who is not after "one thing" I want to come home after a long days work, and get a call that asks "how was your day babe?" OR in the middle of the day, just to say I'am thinking about you!And also trust is a big one for me, would like to be able to call my guy, and say that I was going to happy hour with friends, and him to say be careful and have fun! Just as I would say to him.. and there inlies the trust which is a must have in any good relationship!! after all its not where you get your appetite, as long as you come home for dinner! LOL I am not into seeing a bunch of guys at the same time, So I guess what I am saying is, just be real, NO headgames,NO lies! jUST SAY WHAT YOU MEAN AND MEAN WHAT YOU SAY! SIMPLE? I am 48 years old, two great adult kids a great career, just missing that one special someone and know exactly what I want, have settled before, but do not intend on doing it again.. Anyways I do beleive in destiny, and will continue to search for my soul-mate... Good Luck Guys in your search...
