I think that no first date will work in every instance, unless you go for the all too common dinner and a movie, and let her choose both.....Personally, I would prefer to be stimulated by lively discussion on a good first date. I would pick out a thought provoking movie, like Shindler's List, or What Dreams May Come with Robin Williams, something with a plot and a philosophical question. Then we would go out for coffee or a light dinner afterwards and enjoy a lengthy conversation, getting to know how one another thinks by discussing the movie and what we got from it. Art museums are also fun, you get to walk around and look at art. Of course, the average guy only goes on a first date based on looks and superficial personality, so this approach probably wouldn't work on most of the population. How would you know if your co-worker ponders the meaning of life on her coffee break?

I am very much a man of substance and I am very unique in today's society because I live my life through my spirituality and through the word of God and because I have such a strong understanding of what I feel my role in life is supposed to be. I am a man of integrity and my word is my honor! I have very high standards for myself and my life is all about providing love, peace and happiness to others.

True Love...

God... My family and friends

When I get in contact with my soul-mate

Life is good. It’s been a long time since I have felt this grounded. I recently had to kick-start my own personal life journey, and I’m excited about exploring the prospect of a new relationship in my life.

When it comes to friends and family, they always describe me as funny, brilliant, inviting, warm, interesting, affectionate and loving. I’m loyal, trustworthy, with a high sense of integrity, character and morals. I’m all about being there, anytime, to catch you or help you get up, under any circumstances or even better to celebrate. I’m an optimist, a glass half-full kind of guy. I focus on positive energy, it’s empowering and enlightening. I value authenticity and honesty above all.

I’m a man who is focused, values family, keeps his word, and leads by example. As a father, I strive to instill the skills of understanding how strength and tenderness define a person. I spent time in the South and learned the art of chivalry, which I embrace today. I enjoy treating women with respect.
