I'm interested in making a connection, enjoying fine company, sharing common interests, and enflaming that spark of chemistry. I believe in love, whole-heartedly and I enjoy being romantic, gifting little things or making silly, small and grand gestures of appreciation. I’m passionate and dedicated and will happily spend most of my free time with my partner, making them a priority in my life. I've loved and known love in return over the years and it's been wonderful and bittersweet. I'm still looking for a steadfast partner to join me for all my adventures. I endeavor to help them achieve their dreams as well, though I do not force things nor rush them. The best stories are passionate adventures with courageous romances, or vice versa! I'm a glass half-full kinda guy. I'm always looking for the silver lining and a glass for my lemonade. Life is interesting, challenging, and amazing and I know it's not fair or gentle, but I'll be the first to stand up, dust myself off and walk-on. I'm a realistic romantic, an eternal optimist, a self-confident wonderer, a nerdy gamer, an enthusiastic dancer, an extroverted socialite, a struggling writer and a constant reader, an easy listener and clever conversationalist, a life-long learner and passionate teacher.
