I'm recently divorced. I have kids, but they're grown - they still live with my ex, so we don't see each other very often - which is very sad, but it is what it is. I am in the process of trying to move forward in my life, but I hate doing it alone. I never thought - in my wildest dreams - that I would find myself on ANY dating site - but now, I'm on three that I know of, and it is sometimes hard to keep track of everything (haha). I'm tired of "chatting", and I'm tired of cleaning the spam out of my emails - but I endeavor to persevere (I keep on trying). I have met some nice people online, however. What I'm looking for is a lady who can deal with my career choice - I'm a full-time musician. In my business life, there are many girls out there who want to "hook up" with the band guy, and that's not my preference. Those types are infatuated with my musical persona, not myself, the person. I want a no-nonsense woman who can be comfortable with me at my "gigs", and be there, too. My ex stopped going to my musical jobs after we married, and it wasn't because of a lack of babysitter that made her make that choice. She complained about how I always had to "work the crowd", even offstage - but that's part of the business, and if you don't have trust in your heart - along with a thick skin - you won't want to be with me. I also want a woman who can appreciate nature, in all of her glory (Mother Earth is truly beautiful, no?). My ideal woman would be able to go from wearing jeans and hiking boots, to high heels with a lot of leg - and an attitude (a sexy one, mind you). She should also be able to love the big city, with its myriad of cultural events (museums, art exhibits, plays, fine dining, dancing, and the like). Spontaneity is a must, also. I appreciate a woman who is well-grounded, yet the spontaneity has to be there, as well. As far as my ideal woman's appearance is concerned, I do appreciate good genes - I want someone who is beautiful to look at, as well as beautiful on the inside. I'm not perfect by any means - but I am an attractive man, and I'm looking for the same type of person (see my pics). I hope that the last two sentences weren't a 'turn-off', but I am a very direct person when it comes to those types of things, and that shouldn't make me appear to be conceited - because I'm not. I am also shy on the inside, so I make up for it when I'm in my "social mode" - my father (deceased) used to call me a "cacchiarone", which means I like to talk a lot. When I'm home, I'm a very different person - I am a good listener, and I love to be a part of planning things together - so that we, my ideal woman and I, can truly have happiness. I am great in the kitchen, so if my ideal woman ends up being into 'nuclear cuisine' (microwave cooking) - I can take up the slack on that. For me, it should always be about compromise - no one is great at everything, so people should work as a team to create happiness, and success. My two favorite words: "Love & Wonder". Why are these my favorites? It is simple. When we're young, every part of our curiosity and life experience is brand new - special, and untouched. That's the 'wonder' part. 'Love' is the unconditional, undying love for a soul mate, friends, and our fellow human beings in this world. Okay. I believe that should do it for me. My hands are getting tired :D Thanks for reading (listening).
