I am here for Serious Relationships

About Me

"Been there, did that" are words that come to mind frequently and often. I've been around the block a few times and experienced a lot, yet I am not a "negative" person. I am described by friends as a good person with a heart of gold. I enjoy the company of others and can get along well even under the most trying of circumstances. I am a smoker. I am a great listener. I am told I look like Harrison Ford, everyone is entitled to his or her opinion! I have been accused of "not caring" because I frequently will say, "I don't care" with regards to where to go or what to do. I can be the most stubborn mule especially if the subject is about something that is not right. Sure, maybe nobody will know but I will and I like living with myself. I am a lousy liar and would rather tell the truth and face the consequences than not. I play a little guitar – some of this, some of that. I do a little cooking and can sew on a button in a pinch. I am active in our community and hold various positions of responsibility in an international organization targeted at those with problems dealing with themselves and their place in society. I am not a whiner and can take care of myself. I love to travel and do not get car, air, sea, or train sick. I like to laugh and enjoy comedy. I like a good scare too. I can be found at [email protected].

My Interests

I need a lot of help here. I am bored stupid with what I know and need to reach out to new ideas. Granted, I've done a lot I don't care to repeat again but atleast my concepts of right and wrong have improved with age.

I'd like to meet:

People with principles in their lives.

Music:

It is far easier to describe what I can't stand - ask me !!!

Television:

Not very much of this.
