Hi! I am a 34 year old African American man, with diverse interests, including nature, reading, hiking, cycling, massage therapy, psychology and animal behavior. I work and live with dogs. I have no children, but I do like children. I plan to marry someday... The woman that I marry will be someone that I believe will be my best friend for the rest of my life.

My ideal partner will be African-American or a woman of diverse heritage and possess great intelligence, wit, strength, character and a joy of life. She will possess congruence... Her words and actions match her feelings and beliefs; she will be genuine! The woman that wins my heart need not be "perfect", but I do not wish to partner with anyone that is addicted to any substances, including alcohol or any other drugs and I want to partner with a woman free of all sexually transmitted diseases. I enjoy laughter and feeling a special connection and look forward to meeting someone with whom I might build a life of love and partnership.
