I hope we'll be able to start getting to know each other now.I should tell you that I am very open-minded; I don't accept anything just because everyone else believes it and I don't close my mind to an idea just because it is strange or unaccepted by the general public. For me, tradition and custom are usually roadblocks to progress and happiness.There is no one on earth more serious about finding love and a successful marriage than I am.

describe myself as adventurous and romantic, strong and gentle, playful and mature, spiritual, fit, and a non-smoker. I'm fairly deep, intelligent, soft-spoken, and 'sweet' (I've been told).
