A little bit about me... I have been divorced for over a year now and am pleased with where I am at in life. I'm not looking to jump into a marriage, but I would like to make new friends and get to know people. For now, I live alone with two dogs that I care about very much; One Miniature Pinscher and one 3lb Chihuahua, and both are spoiled rotten!

So, I consider myself an honest, caring, easy going, clean cut guy. My friends would describe me as someone that loves to laugh and have a good time. I can be sarcastic at times, but its all in good fun. For all the women who are sick of losers, I have never tried drugs and I hold a steady job in a professional line of work and have my own transportation. I'm independent and have all my teeth too! I also have 2 tattoos that generally stay hidden. I'm at home at the beach, the mountains or here by the pool or on the couch watching TV or a movie. Enjoy getting out to a good restaurant (I love Chinese, seafood and Mexican!) or just for a fast food burger. I like all kinds of music but prefer classic rock, alternative or some hip hop. And last but not least, if you are looking for a romantic, respectful, affectionate man, look no further!

As for what I am looking for (or what I'm not looking for), please, no one who smokes. There are several things I am looking for in a woman, but above all she must be honest and able to communicate and knows what she wants out of life. As for looks, I honestly do think that personality and sense of humor are more important, but there does have to be mutual attraction. For example, I'm not a fan of really skinny girls, but love all kinds of women, from average bodies to BBW. Smarts and a sense of humor are a must too. Beyond that, I am open for most anything in a woman.

Work, work and more work. Also assistant chief with a volunteer fd/rescue squad so that keeps me busy too.

Eyes or smile.

Don't read many books except stuff by Dan Brown on occasion, as for movies I like Ladder 49, Backdraft, Indiana Jones, comedies etc. Food favorites consist of Chinese, Seafood, Mexican, Pizza (NY style) and a good burger.

In no particular order...

1) Love and Affection (they usually go together)
2) Family
3) Friends
4) Technology
5) A Vehicle
6) Shelter
7) (sorry) Personal Hygiene!

Wouldn't you like to know ;)

Relaxing after a hard week at work or who knows what!

You are looking for a friend to hang out with but don't get upset easily because they lead a very, very busy life and may not have a lot of time to offer at the moment.
