No lies, nothing to hide, real, honest, dedicated, open, down to earth, loves life, family and having fun.

These are all of the things that describe me. I am flawed, as is everybody. I am aware of my flaws and I am constantly trying to perfect them. I have a 13-year-old daughter and every day I am trying my best to be a father she can be proud of.

I am missing a big piece of my life and have been for some time. Every time I think I've found it, I end up getting the short end of the stick. I am looking for a friend who can understand my situation, knows my position, accepts my past and gives me a chance for a future. I am open to a relationship, but I am willing to just be friends. I'm a good listener, I love pets, drawing, music, art, and travel. I write music and am in the process of publishing my first novel. I am very active affectionate, loving, and aware of other's feelings.

I can't make you take the time to write me. All I can say is take a chance, and see where this goes. I don't care if you are big, small, white, black, or a green Martian from space. As long as you are real and have a head on your shoulders, I will write back. With that said, thank you for taking the time to read my ad and if I'm not what you are looking for, I hope you find it. Everyone deserves happiness. You never know where you might find yours.
