More about me:

I recently saw a profile that opened this way…”before I start my diatribe, I want to provide this caveat: unlike all the other superheroes on this site, I am not perfect. I don’t power walk seven miles on my lunch break,volunteer at an animal shelter on weekends or donate blood.”

That profile made me laugh. It is so true.

I am going to come clean. I am not perfect or superhuman. That said, I like me and think I am a good catch, a good guy trying to do the right things and enjoy a good life.

I am 46 years old, single again and showing my wares on the dating scene. I have been fortunate to have some very fulfilling relationships in my life that have left me with tremendous respect for smart, strong, independent women, women who also don’t take themselves too seriously, can let go, relax and enjoy an adventurous side.

Some of my hallmarks:

* I know myself. Being self-aware is one of my strengths.

* I am not super athletic but exercise (in a gym) is one of my passions. When I am done exercising, problems don’t seem quite as big. Also, my caboose seems a bit smaller and muscles a bit bigger, until the next meal.

* Laugh, laugh and laugh.

* I will take time to focus on you.

* I believe that character is destiny and do believe in karma.

* I am compassionate and care about things beyond me.

* I know and acknowledge my strengths and do not try to overcompensate or blame others for my weaker areas.

* I love to do things. I am not the kind of guy that sits around and waits for life to come to me. I am also not the kind of guy that goes rock climbing.

* I talk to and get along with almost anyone.

* I am honest and loyal to a fault and looking for the same in my partner.

* I am adventurous. I will provide more specifics about that when we talk.

I live in the Baltimore but escape to the beach on many (sometimes most) weekends. It is a different world down there, very therapeutic in almost every way. There is nothing like spending the day on the beach and a quiet cool night in comfortable surroundings. Weekends at the beach alleviate my stress.

I LOVE to travel. I love to go on cruises and land based vacations. About every 4 to 6 months, I try to take a trip.

I certainly don't drink to excess or rely on alcohol, but I love a couple of drinks, a good beer, glass of wine or whiskey.

I pay attention to details and have pride in my ability to enjoy very simple things, to notice things. As an example, I love the way different activities affect my breathing. When I exercise, breathing is rhythmic meditation, total relaxing focus. There is also something relaxing about a long exhale when having a good glass of wine or stiff drink. Think of every situation. Think about how your breathing is affected. Think of the impact and how you may have overlooked a small but meaningful detail like that.

I have a stable (25-year) career. I won’t bore you with the details except to say that I like my work and it is meaningful.

Hey, if I were reading this add, I would take a chance with this guy!
