I'm originally from a small town in Ohio, but didn't like the state very much and decided to start my life over fresh in Arizona. As of 7/24/12, I am officially here as a full time resident. I am excited to see what this new life adventure brings me. I am: intelligent, financially stable, well-educated, athletic, chivalrous, pionate, romantic, adventurous, patient, polite, witty, open-minded, soft-spoken, and have a dry sense of humor. I work hard and love harder. I don't have children. I've never been married. I don't have any crazy stalker ex-girlfriends. I don't look my age. I don't smoke. I don't spend all my time playing video games (don't even own any) or sitting in front of the TV watching sports (would rather be playing instead). I am in touch with my emotions and have no problem having a calm discussion about them. I am loyal to you for life unless you give me a good reason to not to be. I like candle-lit dinners and long walks on the beach. No, seriously, I really do. I like riding my bike until I feel like my legs are going to fall off, then riding just a little bit further so that I can round my trip to an even mile number (28.7? No way, 30 here I come!). I like discovering bands long after they stop being popular. I like stiff tails and soft pillows. I like running and staying in shape. I'm not a serial relationship person and pretty much spend years of my life single. I'm very into commitment. Once I'm yours, that's it, I'm not going anywhere. But if you leave, i'm not just going to hop into bed with the first person who comes along. I don't have any grande illusions of finding a potential romantic partner on here, but I figure it's worth a shot. One never knows where things will go once a connection has been made. And we can always delete our profiles and lie about how we met :) Career-wise, I've always been very business oriented. For fun, I just to like to travel. Sometimes it's for pleasure, other times to see friends, and occasionally I make a trip for a music festival or 2 (Lollapalooza, Coachella, and the like...). My travels have mostly been domestically in the last decade, but I'd love to meet someone willing to explore the more romantic places on earth. I can't think of any better way to explore the world than with someone who means everything to me.
