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. My life has revealed a number of paths over time, many of which continue to illuminate what's important to me. I know with certainty that there are aspects of life that mark a difference, and can lead to happiness and healthiness. I offer them here as a continuing definition of who I am, and to further illustrate what I seek and desire in defining a new, beautiful relationship with a woman ……
