Over the last few months I have been fortunate to meet some interesting datable. By datable, I mean decent looking, mannerly, educated, with a good job and interesting hobbies. yet they weren't quite right for me. I have yet to find a woman to light my fire, inspireing and make me perspire. (Whoa, where did that sudden attack of bad rhyming come from? Anyway, I think I made my point.) I am: 39 turning 40 on the 25th of november am single black man looking for an engaging lady for a adventure with me. I am definitely open minded" but I am open to making new friends (no benefits) as well - any good relationship starts with a good friendship . . .right? I am cute, fun (!), fit - but with a few extra pounds (just keepin' it real ) . I love good food and wine; music and lots of other stuff. The lady I am looking for is: SINGLE, STABLE, physically healthy and are between the ages of 29 - 45 and live in the united states and i am up to Relocating if we click . she has to enjoys good food (cook A++) and wine and loves the great outdoors meaning fishing, camping and all things outside; she is playful, smart without being smug, loving, spiritual and sensuous; has good manners. I like women of all ethnic/racial backgrounds and that are maybe a little shorter than me - so 5'9 or shorter. If I have sparked your interest, reply back with a note about you with basic stats, what you're looking for and what you're open to.
