With the right person, anything can be fun, because you like to be together, laughing and joking around with each other. Initial chemistry and compatibility has to be there from the start, otherwise you won’t have any passion, intimacy, or commitment down the road. Good communication skills are essential, if you can’t have the courage to be open and honest, without hidden agendas, and completely sharing thoughts, feelings and intentions, then you can’t really create a close relationship. How could someone understand, be supportive, and help you to get what you want or need, if they don’t even know the real you? Of course it takes risk, but the alternative is to never have a true or meaningful connection with someone.
This is me, and my photos are recent. What would be the point of showing up to a date with someone that you may want to spend the rest of your life with and start things off without integrity? What kind of relationship would ever work out that way, without honesty, trust and respect?
I may sound like I'm so serious, but those who know me can tell you that I'm always making them laugh. I think it’s a good balance between being straightforward, knowing what you want, being serious about your goals, and at the same time being positive, lighthearted, having a sense of humor, and to being able to laugh at yourself, and the silly things we all have to go through.
My life is about my close relationships, it comes down to the fact that I believe people are more important than things; their happiness is more important than ego, or having to be right. It’s about cooperation and making life work for all concerned, rather than competition, taking advantage, or selfishness.
Hopefully I’m not just growing older, but also wiser. When I was younger, I remember thinking, “If I just had ____ in my life, then I would be happy”, but I soon realized that there’s nothing missing, I'm complete as is. The longing in my heart wasn’t there because I need to get something, it’s there because I have something I want to give, something to share, and that’s why I’m here on this site, looking for you.
So, if you relate and appreciate what I’m saying, please don’t be shy, or feel limited by “the way things are supposed to be done”, send me a wink or a message. We’re both taking the time to be on this site, and I would hate to think we didn’t find each other because I somehow didn’t find your profile.
Best of luck!
