I am a bit old-fashioned, especially when it comes to chivalry. I enjoy being a gentleman by treating a lady as such and making her feel special and appreciated. My happiness comes from seeing others happy. I'm more interested in what I can contribute to a relationship than what I can receive from one. Open and honest communication is vital for any relationship (I'm a good listener, lol). I'm not into the bar scene – I don't drink or smoke. I have a pretty healthy sense of humor and can laugh even at myself. I'm not a big world-wide traveler, but I do enjoy weekend getaways and day trips. I enjoy the beach, the mountains, and about everything in between. I enjoy an occasional hike to explore waterfalls or take-in nature's beauty, as well as a walk on the beach, especially at night under the stars, listening to the waves. I enjoy live music/concerts, festivals, amusement parks, watching various sports (Pro and college, Nascar, etc.), a game of pool, and bowling (I'm not that great at either, so you CAN beat me, lol). I don't consider myself to be materialistic (I don't need expensive toys). I am content with and enjoy the simple things in life and look for someone to share them with.
