I love animals, reading, sports (mostly playing, not watching!), spending time outside, riding horses, travel, movies, and good music.
I'm a very down to earth, compassionate man. I love to laugh. The best part of my day is if I can give someone a kind word or a hug and make them feel special.
I'm a great listener and I find it exciting getting to know all about someone. Sometimes I forget to talk about myself, but I'm an open book and pretty much willing to discuss anything though, you just have to ask!
I own my own business. I get my hands (and Levis) dirty on a daily basis. I may have calluses, but darn it, my finger nails are always clean!
If you're looking for a man with soft hands and an office job, look elsewhere!I'm a single parent - my daughter is my entire world. No ex drama here .. but I take my parental responsibilities very seriously. If this is a problem, move along.
I don't mind earning trust. Meaning, I'm not the kind of guy to get upset if things progress slowly. I think it's important to be clear about this. I don't hold it against any woman for being hesitant, considering chivalry and integrity is pretty much non existent these days. I always strive to treat women with honor and respect. I'm not interested in flings or one night stands. I want to find a woman who can have deep conversations with me (I'm kinda a profound thinker by nature), but can also laugh and see the positive, care-free side of life. I don't see romance as a chore, I get a lot of enjoyment coming up with clever ways to demonstrate my feelings. I like a challenge. A huge turn on is a female who is intelligent, and can keep me on my toes. I don't need someone stroking my ego all the time. I appreciate a woman who is strong willed, but at the end of the day is able to be vulnerable with the man she loves.
