I am a mixed race (black and Italian) 6’0, 190 lbs., fit, nice, very chill and laid back, attractive (in mine and a few other opinions) one or two tattoos (nothing extreme), my hair changes slightly; I’ll go from a short wavy hair cut with no ****** hair to having one inch curly hair with a full beard, according to the mood I’m in. I try to eat healthy and take care of myself. I am divorced and I have one daughter. I have lived in several other places across the east coasts, but I am back close to the area where I grew up, which is Washington, DC. My life is very simple and peaceful and I like it to stay that way. I am very tolerant and easy going; but if you’re mean and nasty, I will be too - by standing up and defending myself and my loved ones. I drink occasionally, only on the weekends. I believe in hard work and understand anything you want in life, you have to work hard to get it and to keep it. I have a lot of time on my hands to be with my special someone and you should too. I am a dog lover, but don’t currently have one at the time. I am not ghetto or uppity, I am somewhere in the middle. My family is like me, middle class (No criminals, drug .s, alcoholics, mental illnesses, etc…) I like to spend my free time with my significant other going to comedy shows, taking a vacation to an island, weekend getaways (mountains, go shopping, boat cruise, etc…), eating a good meal and afterwards snuggling at home watching a good movie, going to plays, cook outs, concerts. I am a sports fan so I enjoy watching football, basketball, boxing, I enjoy playing those sports and other sports and activities as well (i.e. adult sports leagues, volleyball, tennis, snorkeling, snow tubing, etc… I like all kinds of music, movies and different cultures and you should too. The women I have been running into recently all seem to like men who play games, lie to them, cheat on them, when I do the opposite they care about me but they want to still talk to other men which means their incapable of loving one guy. I want to meet a woman who wants all of me, instead a little bit from several different guys. Women do not want their equal they want their greater than. When you find your greater than; he knows that you’re not on his level so he’ll probably treat the woman bad, cheat on her, etc… The women I have met recently do not want anyone genuine, they have been looking for someone to fulfill some temporary need. (Sex, Excitement, Money) Life is about what’s fair so I believe in treating people the way they treat you. I am not a quitter, when I find someone I want to be with I will do everything I can to keep us together. A lot of my family and friends are good people, married and I am just waiting for my wife to show up. I am looking for a PARTNER and nothing less. I am a ****er for love but not a foul. I do and will always believe in genuine love. I am very capable and I do stand on my own, but it would be nice to have someone to stand beside me through the good and bad that life has to offer. Love is the one thing I want in life most. A mate that I can make a part of my soul. The only way a relationship will last is through understanding, commitment, real love (like the love for your mother or child) I would love to hear from you...
