Hello, and thanks for taking the time to view my profile. I’d like you to know that I'm a very direct and open person without a phony bone in my body, and not a game player. I'm also not a prima donna and the inner self is far more important to me than outward appearance. I love family and greatly respect others who do so as well. I also love to laugh and experience new adventures. I would like to meet someone who shares my same family values and who also has a bit of an adventurous spirit so that maybe, together, we may explore new things and ideas. And you most definitely have to love life and laughter! Life’s just too short not to do so. Please be assured that I’m not searching for someone to take care of me, as I'm quite capable of taking care of myself. If you like my profile and meet the above criteria and are also a non-game playing, honest, trustworthy man who would appreciate the same in a reasonably attractive lady friend with whom to socialize with (and who knows where that might lead??), send me a message. And if my profile is not of interest to you, if you can spare the time, I’d really appreciate it very much if you would send me a quick message & let me know what you didn’t like about what you saw or read, and please be totally honest. After all, it’s never too late to learn more about one's self. Now, a few more things, just to be very clear: PLEASE, PLEASE Note: 1. No offense, but no photo = no response. 2. I'm definitely not a cougar so DO NOT bother to contact me if you're younger than 62. 3. If you permanently live a very long distance from Virginia (i.e., Florida, California, Oregon, Alaska, etc.) no need to contact me unless you happen to own a plane. :). Oh, one more very important thing - if you’ve just recently discovered the “little blue pill” and are only looking to find a lady friend to try it out upon, contacting me would be an extreme waste of your time and mine (and, please believe me, I will definitely be able to tell).

I know there really are a lot of great men and women out in this mostly wonderful world, just as there are some not so great ones. Even if I don’t spark your interest after you read my profile, I still wish you every possible success in your search!
