Movies: action and comedy mostly.

Music, anything but rap. Sorry I'm the wrong demographic. Not too crazy about opera either.

Books: boring history books mostly. Relative truth is more interesting than fiction.

Thanks for looking at my profile, hope you like what you see. I guess I could say that I'm under construction but aren't we always if we're constantly seeking ways to better ourselves in order to reach our dreams? Hmm a question following a statement. Personal development is rewarding. So, how did I get here? Just to get this out of the way as it is sometimes a problem for people, I'm widowed. Yes, I can talk about my past life, just ask if you want to know otherwise I may not offer too much early on. I don't wear that status on my sleeve but why give you a surprise yet it is the catalyst for my rebuilding. For me, actions speak louder than words, loyalty/honesty/integrity are critical to me and with me, I'm laid back, easy going, sort of quiet, great listener, can easily make others laugh (no pointing necessary), when the going gets tough -- I'm the guy you want around. Good, bad or indifferent, I'm a nice guy, for real. I'm a pilot, drive a sports car, pursuing a career change (why not, life's too short to not enjoy what I do) and will put myself on the line even if it means getting hurt. I love most kinds of music and enjoy playing the guitar...it's the greatest therapy. I have dogs and a couple of cats but do not have any children. Fun things to do with me are hiking, tubing, walks, music, theatre, movies, board games, exploring new restaurants or just talking. I'm a great listener when you need one.

I became involved with someone just before her divorce became final, more as friends. We began dating after and had several successful dates, or at least successful for me. After each date she would over analyze and become distant. We had a few disagreements and moments of disconnection. Then we began to really connect with some fantastic dates. Finally, we met for coffee and she suggested we go on a trip together and how we're likely dating, her words. Three weeks later, she called and said "it just isn't there." It stunned, confused and deeply hurt me. The next day, I sent her a nice email telling her I was setting her free and hoped she fulfilled her dreams. I was a mess for several weeks after and am still trying to reconcile why this happened.
