I am a gentleman first and always ... and not just for the first couple dates.I am not a man-child and don't need a mommy (I hear that's pretty common). I have a career that - God willing - will be around for a long time; it's cool, sizeable, I own it and it gives me lots of freedom to be and do what I want. My absolutely incredible sons are proof that I can keep children alive and thriving and I am good with pets, however, I have to admit that the plant thang is ... well ... let's just say, you shouldn't call me to take care of your plants when you travel - although I will try! If we do communicate, I will plan to meet face to face (assuming you want to) and if we do, you will notice a few things 1. I look exactly like my pictures (good or bad), 2. I'm in very good shape and I'm as tall as I say I am (I hear that is a problem with some online guys), 3. I'm pretty dang fun to hang out with, and 4. You will have a very nice time, and surprise surprise, I will happily cover the check. And not to be immodest, but I am told regularly that I am a "hell of a catch" - And when I find the right one (and I will), I'll put the hook in myself.

I'm funny, loving, affectionate, honest and generous to a fault and I am ready to wait to find the love of my life. A little accident prone ... I am into stuff like scuba, skydiving, cliff diving, skiing, BUT I have never hurt myself doing any of those: I tend to break a toe on a coffee table, walk into a glass door, or drop a bowling ball on my foot. My dorkyness and klutziness are two of my most endearing qualities.

I'm down to earth, romantic, normal and stable. No dependence, no drama. I love to have fun and I know how to do it. Couch, popcorn, movie and someone special: nice! Night on the town, tearing it down: groovy! Travel, spa, great food: Now yer talkin'! :-) I'm not perfect - I have some faults ... most of which I refer to as “endearing qualities”. My biggest fault is I brag about my three sons incessantly!

My three INCREDIBLE sons are my joy and purpose in life. If you doubt their incredible-ness, I can prove it! :-)

I'm fun, confident and spontaneous. I love the outdoors and camping AND I love a five star hotel in an exotic location.

I'm an artist in sculpture and music, and I’ll always try to pull over to help a stranger change a tire … assuming they have a flat (people don't like it when you change their tire if they've only pulled over to check a map – I don’t have to learn THAT twice!).

If you think a real man is someone who takes care of the important things in life and, above all, operates as an EQUAL, then you'll dig me:-).

Hope you take a look at the rest of my profile and like what you see. Regardless, happy hunting! :-)

Mike
