I rather tell you about myself and you judge for yourself whether you are interested in me as a future significant other or partner to see if you align with my values and lifestyle.

I am looking for a long-term relationship leading to marriage and naturally conceived children to have a family. I would like several/many children if possible. Open to adoption after having a few natural ones at first. I am 37, male, dark brown hair and eyes, height and weight proportional (22 BMI), grey hair starting to creep into my life, fair/Caucasian skin, financially stable (820 Credit Score), no major health issues or concerns, and pictures are available upon request. I am open to any ethnicity. I am open to distance for the one!

I recently went to MEPS to start the process of joining the air national guard here shortly. I have an established career, house, and car so the reasons I am attempting to join the military are not financial but to say I have done it before it is too late in my life. The college benefits would easily pass onto my wife/kids as well as access to military benefits. I would hope my future spouse would be more attracted to someone in the military than the other way around!

You can find me most of the time at home relaxing: listening to music, working on a project, cleaning, playing a game, or watching a streaming service. Nights/evenings at home, with a homemade meal or grill out, with a fire in the backyard, on an old-fashioned swing in summer, while watching the firefly’s come out is honestly a bit close to Elysium or Heaven as one might find on Earth. I enjoy being close to home but do not mind getting away on day trips and tolerate large/big travel events maybe once a year at most. Background music is almost always playing at my house. I desire to learn the keyboard/piano. violin, or bass guitar but have not taken the plunge... yet!

Exercise, health, and being mindful of my body has been a large part of my life the past four years and it will continue to be so in the future. I do an hour of cardio six days a week and do weight training three days a week. My health goals are for life with a change in lifestyle and would like someone supportive of that lifestyle. I am not necessarily active, but committed to eating right, exercise, and trying to get out and move more than being a couch potato. I have abstained from alcohol, tobacco, and drugs my whole life even refusing pain medicine when prescribed. I have no tattoos or piercings.

I fell in love with Star Wars and Lord of the Rings at an early age, which propelled my love for nerdy things ever since. I still enjoy nerdy activities even with my lifestyle’s changes and shift in priorities over the years. I host game night for friends every couple of weeks and we have a good time with some tabletop games. We generally have a good time of it and is a good social outing/excuse for us to get together as friends. I have a passion for history, geography, philosophy, art, nature, and religious studies that I am openly willing to engage in almost any debate about those subjects at length. Museums, historical battlefields, and cultural events/local events are awesome. I am okay with changing up the nerdy side of my lifestyle to accommodate and be a good head of household/family, but I hope we have some common interests to ground us together. Not required, however.

My day is structured M-F with waking up between 5:30-6am, working out, cleaning up, getting dressed and out the door by 7, work by 7:30ish until 4:30-5:30 sometimes 6, grab lunch/read bible at lunch, come home cook dinner, clean, do chores for an hour, and then have 2ish hours of free time until bed at 10:30/11pm. I sleep in until 6:30ish on Saturdays/Sundays usually but go to early service on Sundays for church. Sunday after church with meal prep that evening for the week. I am a good steward of what I have been given, repairing things rather than buying new often and keep a clean/organized workspace and house space. Efficiency, organization, and structure generally are more prevalent than the form or appearance of something in my eyes. “Form follows function” in the modern term that defines a decent bit of how I view things.

Wise and frugal with what I have earned, I detest sunken cost but will cut my losses when needed. I generally am a bit of a saver but am known to make big purchases after doing careful research and ask 30 questions for weeks on end. After my mind is made up, I am committed to what I have started into. If things change, shift, things sold or told in bad faith, or a bait-n-switch happens I am very quick to cut my losses and walk away. Open, honest, and straightforwardness is what attracts me both in business and relationships.

Since I have been 13, I have kept most family and friends at arm’s length. I spend time with family during holidays and check in throughout the year, I am more engaged with friends and community at church than my family. Independence and space are important to me. Carrying a conversation and engaging with individuals is not a problem as I am very well socialized, but I tend to choose to keep to myself/alone at home even though I am talkative with company, to my detriment sometimes. It takes me a bit to open up/warm up but once I open, I can talk a good bit.

I have told you a lot about myself, now tell me about yourself and how you see us working out. I am open minded and often am surprised by whom I attract. Let us talk! Shoot me you’re A/S/L and if you are comfortable sharing it your BMI/picture.
