I hate talking about myself, but I at this point I think it's a requirement, so here goes. About me: I believe a sense of humor is vital to enjoying (and surviving!) life, so I love to laugh (especially at myself!) and will love to make you laugh. If I can't make you laugh, you don't like to laugh. I'm intelligent, articulate, sophisticated, easy-going, humble yet confident, and get along with just about everybody from all walks of life. If you're looking for a kind, affectionate, loyal guy that's a great listener, that's me. I'm a fan of cooking, hiking in the mountains,and exploring the planet. Sometimes it's an easy destination, sometimes it's a challenging destination. But for me, that's what keeps life interesting. I'm down to earth, and I don't play games. I'll occasionally challenge you to break outside your comfort zone. I'm honest, kind, and supportive of my partner. I'll have your back and be your best friend and biggest cheerleader. I'm new to this online dating, but I'm here because I'm adventurous, and like trying new things. So let's get the ball rolling--don't miss this opportunity! (Please forgive all the I's here. I'd much rather be listening to you than talking about myself, but I figured the more information, the better.)
