Well hello there and thanks for checking me out, a bit. My name's Richard and I am one of the "Good Guys" :). Live here in Portland, OR., Jantzen Beach Marina, in a floating home and I really LOVE PNW living, although I have lived in many other fun places. I have a good career, well educated, very well travelled, financially sound and progressive, not religious, not political, kind of easy going and try to remain not too judgemental. I am looking to find that Lady that has her 'own life' and wants to find "shared independence" with a very special man, in a warm and intimate relationship. Friends first, passion a definite option, as time goes on. I love 'critters' (have two of the best ), target shooting, scuba diving, traveling (especially tropical places), art, auctions, FISHING, boating or that "off the wall" road trip for the day or weekend. Staying home on a rainy Sunday...lets get a couple of movies and cuddle up while the chili is slowly cooking in the kitchen. Sun pops out, hey, lets jump in the convertible and go find some excitement. Its all good.
My friends say I am dependable, generous, honest, FUN to be with, a "BEST" friend, trustworthy, and very handsome & attractive. Gotta LOVE my friends. If you're looking for a man, tired of boys, love to be treated nicely by a monogamous guy who is not a 'player', not a serial dater, no std's ... give me a wink. If a LTR is what you're seeking and more FUN in your life ia what you're after and are tired of kissing frogs ... come see about me. You won't be disappointed ...PROMISE !
Well as you can imagine, that all depends. Depends on what you consider a 'first date'. Our first meeting should be something fun but low key. Maybe meet for some pizza at Escape from NY pizza on NW 23rd. My favorite pizza in the state ! Being Italian and from NYC I do qualify as a judge of great pizza. Or, depending on how the dialogue went in our chats, we could go for a cruise to some fun place on the river, either by boat or convertible, depending on our mood. We could do dinner at Montage, din-din at your place or mine, I'm a great chef ! Lets just say our first date has a lot of possible options.
