Creative type.. rare mix of athlete and Mensa member. More degrees than a thermometer yet grounded and down to earth. Tall, fit, full head of light brown hair with some reddish natural highlights (Irish lad, you know), exceptional smile, white teeth. Playfully naughty and silly sense of humor (Irish thing AGAIN)!. Love a witty and articulate woman.. someone with enough of life's experience to offer insight while standing confidently on curiosity. Just fishing for some conversation...could be chat.. possibly more. I'm extremely open and honest about who I am and welcome anyone who shares that same perspective. I appreciate insight and observation especially from those who know how to express themselves and adore those who can do so while adding the proper dose of levity. I'm here for friendship rooted in genuine respect. A good friend. Not necessarily a girlfriend.. but still someone with whom I could speak openly, honestly and emotionally. I am open to friendship evolving into more, but I think if we're honest with ourselves we would recognize that this site really serves as a distraction from whatever we're sorting through in our daily lives. Because of distance, it's really not practical to expect much more than friendship and frolic with those we find appealing here on SD..just the way it is.(is that so bad?) and while it's easy to think otherwise, and develop an emotional tie, the fact remains that if Mr. Right were to sit down next to you at lunch today..you'd quickly excuse your ties here.. because we can't pass on what's in front of us. So anyway.. If you're fit, (I work out, eat healthy) attractive, bright, respectful, upbeat, educated and playful....then please say hello. It's imperative that you can express yourself in a coherent manner. Our words here are the only real bartering system we have.
