My self-summary
I am not looking for the most beautiful woman in the world, but the woman who can make my world beautiful.

Who I am,

I am a man who likes to live life wide open. When I do something, I give it 100% and I don't quit until it's done. There are several things that I have learned and one is to always try to be the person you want your kids to be. The values that I shape my life by are loyalty, honesty, and doing the right thing. These three things are what I live by and what I will promise to you. I say what I mean and mean what I say. If I am with you, then you have me 100%. I am not afraid to show how I feel and you will be loved like never before. My nickname is "The Party" so I when we go out, I know that you will have a good time. Touch is very important to me, even if it's something small like sitting next to each other. I do think that our eyes are the gateway to our soul, and a lot can be said with a simple glance. As far as kids, I raised mine, man 18 and young woman 14, for 8 years by myself, and I sacrificed a lot to devote myself to them and to raise them right. They spend time between thier mom's house and mine, so spending time with you will not be a problem. As far as yours, I'm a very cool guy to hang out with. Love kids, and if we hit it off I understand that you are a package deal. Love camping and yes I am an Eagle Scout. I've camped all over Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. My best ability is working with my hands. I have a large workshop and enjoy creating and building. Cooking is something that I am very good at also, but I would prefer to help. I don't watch a lot of TV because I'm on the go or doing something.

I volunteer to help feed the homeless at the soup kitchen, and have cut the grass of elderly people's homes for Hands on Greenville. Family means EVERYTHING to me, and I couldn't care less what other people think. I would rather be home grilling out with my family and the person I care about than the most expensive restaurant in Greenville.

What I am looking for,

One woman that can handle being loved on a lot. Touch is very important whether it's in the car driving down the road, sitting at the table, or watching a movie. I like simple, uncomplicated, and earthy women, who don't need a lot of time to get ready. If we are dating, I am already into you so come as you are. If you can cook, work in the yard, give back scratches, and can rock the freaking house with me, then I'm sure you'll do just fine.
I’m really good at
Being a leader. I have a crew (my kids) and we split and stack firewood, cut the grass, plant flowers, and they help cook. I can fix almost anything, remodel a house, weld anything, and I love to rough it when I camp.
The first things people usually notice about me
I have a presence. Confidence and being secure with yourself shows on the outside.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Music: Lets face it, I'm a metal head. Love it, live it. I have played the drums for 30 years and bang the hell out of them. You would think that for as long as I have been playing I would be better, but screw it.
On my softer side, I like to get my groove on to Wynton Marsalis or something like Spyro Gyra. I am a big music fan and even though I am into the 80's and I love my metal, I have been listening to Techno dance ( Clavin Haris, Swedish House Mafia) and some new stuff (The Joy Formidable).

Books: I wish I had the attention to sit and read, I really do and I hate this about myself, but I am either doing something or sleeping. I like to stay busy. Do home improvement mags count?

Movies: The Outsiders (Fav), Outlaw Jose Wales, Inception, Red, and The Bridges of Madison County made me cry..... Whatever.
My two heroes are Clint Eastwood (Outlaw Jose Wales), and Bruce Willis ( Yippee ki-yay ..................).
The six things I could never do without
God
A shower
blue jeans
a friend
a fireplace
and probably the most important thing; a kind and loving woman by my side.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
I spend a lot of time thinking about who I am on the outside compared to the person I am on the inside.
On a typical Friday night I am
Honestly, getting hammered. I really don't like being single and a man my age has nowhere to go but to a bar, and when in Rome....If I had a reason to stay home I would.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I'm really Santa Clause.....
I’m looking for
  • Girls who like guys
  • Ages 36–45
  • Near me
  • Who are single
  • For new friends, long-term dating
You should message me if
You are ready to look ahead, instead of behind. One last thing....I have come across women who are only interested in being entertained for the evening at my expense with no intentions of a relationship. When we meet for the first time it is NOT a date, but a meeting to see if there is any spark, we don't even know each other so you should pick up your own tab. If we start dating, I have no problem paying, but until then we are just friends. If you are interested in a RELATIONSHIP with me, then this should not upset you. If it does then blame the women that came before you, and you are probably not right for me. If women expect then why are you shocked when men expect? ......Word (80's ref.)

So.....if you are wanting to hangout, talk, and see if we have anything in common, that would be great.
