I Would Describe Myself As
Looking for someone willing to let go and be spontaneous or chill and watch a movie. Take life seriously but be able to let the day go when we come together(unless you really need to get something off your chest, then I am more than happy to lend an ear). My kids are very important to me as I move into this new chapter of my life. I was a stay-at-home dad, but now I am working again so I love spending as much time with them as I can. However, I also know that I need some adult interaction in my life as well, so I am jumping back into the dating scene. I grew up a Mil-Brat, so I've lived both in the states and overseas (Spain, Italy, Okinawa, Japan), and visited many others. It was a great experience and I still like traveling. Can't wait til I'm in a position to do so. I guess, anything else you'd like to know, just ask.

An Ideal First Date Would Be
Getting to know each other somewhere overlooking the water. Maybe having drinks/dinner at a marina, maybe I made us a picnic lunch/dinner to enjoy, maybe we're just sitting/walking at the beach. Or we could be landlocked somewhere. The point is the conversation. The questions, the thoughtful inflections, the awkward pauses, the nervous giggle, the hearty laugh, the looks, the smiles, the silence. Whatever it is, bring it.

My Idea Of Fun Is
Truthfully?!? Reading and I mean real books. I can't really get in to ebooks. Like the feel of them in my hand, turning pages. Ok, enough of my nerdy side. I love hanging out with my kids, where ever we are. On the personal/private side, I like listening to the ocean or a running river. I find it interesting that water can be so calming and soothing, yet can be so destructive. Naturally I also like hanging out with friends or movie nights at home. I'm pretty much up for most things.
Looking for
What Do You Find Attractive?
Humor, Intelligence, Oddities, Thoughtfullness, Wit
What Do You Look For?
Truthfully, I don't know. Sure, there is usually some kind of initial spark which could range from me noticing your nice butt, your pretty smile or hearing your infectious laugh. However, I won't generally know whether that spark is worth pursuing until we actually talk, either through email or in person. Having divorced about 6 months ago, I'm at a stage in my life where my kids have most of my attention, but I do acknowledge that I do kind of miss the companionship and intimacy of a woman in my life. Not sure where I want go, but right now the journey is enough. So friends, maybe more, we'll see.
