I suppose much like “Sam I AM,” my objective here is to try to get you to do something you might initially not be inclined to. In this case, responding to my profile :). I am very much outdoors oriented. Living near the beach, many of my activities involve the water. I enjoy mountain biking and snow skiing, though in Florida, the conditions are less than optimal. I tend to come across rather quiet and reserved at first, but as my friends will tell you, I have an excellent sense of humor and can be quite charming if someone is willing to take the time to get to know me. I make an excellent third impression! I am naturally curious and inquisitive; worldly yet naive. Definitely a dog not a cat person. Allergies may have something to do with that.

My friends tell me that I am just too picky. I don't know, is wanting everything unreasonable? I am looking for an active, outgoing intelligent person who can make me laugh. I would like to meet someone who could be my best friend, who would challenge me in every respect and with whom we could both be more than either could ever be separately. Since opposites attract, I tend to be drawn towards active outgoing personalities. If the person I have described sounds like you, and you are interested please send me a message

I believe that any meaningful relationship has to begin with respect and friendship. With that in mind, I am looking for someone with compatible interests and values who is interested in shaping a future with me, whether that be friendship or something more.

I just finished the first 5 books in the Game of Thrones series. Come on book 6.
