* IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PHOTO I WON'T RESPOND * If after a few messages you feel it's not a match, please say so, so that I don't waste my time or yours. Now then About Me ... A Buddhist walks up to a hot dog vendor and says ... make me one with everything. But seriously now... I'm just an average guy with an average life. I own my own web design and consulting business. I'm looking for someone who likes quiet evenings at home and strolls on the Beach. I'm a hopeless romantic who believes that if something feels good, do it, just as long as you don't hurt yourself or others. I love to cook, Italian, and Chinese. I'm looking for a woman who shares the same interests and anything else she would like to share or try to interest me in. I'm pionate about a great many things, cooking, music, love, romance, the art of conversation and just being there for people when I can be. My ideal mate would be self-sufficient, but yet not afraid to let her Man pick her up and carry her for awhile when she finds herself weary and in need. My mate should also not be afraid to speak her most intimate thoughts about her Man and even act on them if she wants. (The King likes a Queen with Ambitions) I'm currently in the process of starting up Daily Deals website similar to Groupon / Livingsocial. We've launched in 206 cities. In addition to that I work as a Web Developer for small businesses and an IT Specialist for Church on the Hill, in McMinnville, OR. I love music and cannot imagine my life without it. Currently loving Adele, she sings with so much pion and soul. To quote one of her songs: I dare you to let me be your, your one and only Promise I'm worthy to hold in your arms So come on and give me the chance To prove that I'm the one who can Walk that mile until the end starts Favorite Quote: "Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet. - Plato"
