I am an adventurous, fun-loving, ambitious, open-minded man. I crave learning and experiencing life in all its forms. Some days I like to take it easy, but at the end of others, I want to feel all used up, like I could not have lived the day any better! I believe in the saying, “In the small matters trust the mind, in the large ones, the heart…” Courage and honesty with oneself, and others, is very important to me.
I feel happiness is about attitude. I strive to stay positive, so when life gives you lemons, my take is..."enough sour, let’s make some lemonade.”
Sharing my life with family and friends is very important to me. Intimate connections are where I find satisfaction. I'd rather do nothing by myself then do something with the wrong person. Some of the activities I enjoy are triathlon racing (swim-bike-run), anything outdoors, blading, scuba-diving, hiking, rock-climbing, skiing, barbecuing with friends. I also like deep conversations, art in any form, inspirational/riveting books, traveling abroad, or just to a new neighborhood, excellent food from either a top restaurant, or total dive that knows how to satisfy, going out at night, music that hits the spot, etc.
I am the type of man who would rather hold hands with my sweetheart than not. In my eyes, most things are better together than apart, although I do have those moments when I need to take a little space to just be with me. My sense of humor leans on the cleverly silly and goofy side, mixed with an insightful perceptive ability, and a touch of heart that usually leaves a big, eye-squinting smile…
In a woman, honesty, integrity, loyalty, intellect, ambition, open-mindedness and a healthy balance between passion and being emotionally grounded are qualities that I value. I feel that giving and receiving inspiration are a necessity between two people. You are just as good a listener as a talker, and you know just how important good communication is in a relationship. I seek that magnetic chemistry that I guess is not easily described in words, but you know it when you have it. You are a sexy (to me) woman. Being physically and mentally fit is important to you. You love adventures, both indoors and outdoors, daytime or night. Wish it were, but since life is not all roses... if you can smile when it's hard to, give or receive a hug even though you are angry, laugh when you want to cry, yet cry honestly when you feel like hiding …that kind of strength turns me on. Do you dream and have vision, and then go after your dreams? When you crash and burn, do you lick your wounds, figure out what you need to do differently and then get back up and try again? If you can, then great... I like that kind of character. If not, but you'd like to learn, let's do it together! If you're not interested, that is ok too and I wish you the best of luck in your search, thanks for reading.
