About Me

I am not the best at the whole "who am I" thing, but I figure it is worth giving it a try. It is easier to talk about my kids then myself, so...staying in my comfort zone...I have two boys ages 21 and 16 who I am very proud of. My oldest graduated from High School a few years ago, and my youngest is in high school. Both are/were active in sports and it has always been very important for me to attend as many of their activities as possible, while still allowing them to maintain some independence. They are both great kids who I can't imagine not being there for or having them around.Professionally, I am a third grade teacher in a economically diverse school. Many of my students are from good stable homes, many are not. I love them all and try to provide them with a stable environment that encourages them to take risks, make mistakes, and know that they are cared for and valued for who they are and what they can accomplish regardless of their background. I became a teacher later in life after spending 12 years working as a paralegal. I am a firm believer in the saying "if you love what you do, you will never work another day in your life". I found that in my teaching career.As far as my personal life, I am looking for someone I can talk to, trust, laugh with, and share experiences. I believe relationships are built on trust and strengthened by commitment because two people care enough about each other to always consider their partner in what they say and do. I am not perfect, I make mistakes, but I try to own my mistakes, learn from them, and not make them a second time. I think this depends entirely on the person I am having a first date with! If we have mutual interests, the setting should be somewhere we are both comfortable, can talk, and start to get to know each other. If I had to pick a "generic" date, it would probably start in a coffeehouse, from there dinner at a restaurant that is not too loud and allows us an opportunity to continue getting to know each other. I think the first stop (the coffeehouse) lends itself to a first impression, from there, if a connection exists, then dinner is a natural progression.

    I am a father of 4 ... 2 kids with one wife and 2 with another .. 18 boy .. 16 girl . 8 girl and 6 boy .. I have custody of all except the oldest girl who I see on a regular basis .. And like everyone else they are first .. Family is important to me.. That's why I spend most of my time with them .. Teaching and doing fun stuff .. With that being said I love the outdoors and stay active in it if time allows .. I hunt and fish ride 4 wheelers and horses .. Camp and swimming in the cool lakes and rivers locally is my Fav.. IM NOT DESPRATE AND I DON'T CHASE.. ( Meaning.. I'm not going to text everyday or beg someone to like me .. It should be mutual ). I'm friendly and will talk to everybody but If i try to talk to you and there's no interest we might as well block each other so we dont waste each other time .. if we have a connection that's great .. If not lets remain friends .. I love to go to dinner but if that's not what your into we can do something else .. I'm pretty easy going ..

    1. Hobbies: I'm chock full of kickass things to do, including wasting time on dating websites.2. Goals and aspirations: To retire with good health, physical fitness, sanity, dignity, and enough to get by.3. Myself and what makes me unique: I'm a competitive amateur sports car racer. I've met some of my closest friends over the smell of spent brakes, roasted tires, and race gas. This is a big part of who I am.4. My taste in music: Lately, just about anything. Exclusionary criteria: FFS, PEOPLE, READ THIS! I can't believe I had to write this!!!Still married or obsessed with exNot completely female...WTFCarlessJoblessDrug useSedentary...this goes with the next line item.ObesePoor hygieneHave no pictures, pictures of yourself 4 years ago, or majority of pictures are in bars with other dudes. Remember, first impressions!Live outside of Central FL Emotionally unavailable, this usually goes with the next one...So into yourself no one else stands a chanceI'm a sucker for intelligence, drive, and passion in what you do every day. If you'd rather be outside sweating than inside slacking, we'd do well.If you really want to know about me, you're not going to get it from a paragraph on a website. First date? Lately the best thing about first dates has been the fact that there wasn't a second one. Try and change my mind, I dare you. I am 100% on this so far.Honestly, someplace that allows unfettered conversation, food that doesn't require the disposal of wrappers afterward, and either coffee or a glass of wine not in a box or jug.
