I'm a down-to-earth professional guy who loves his work. But all work and no play makes Mikey a dull boy! I'm looking to make friends and have a relationship eventually if the combination is right.

Some of the words used to describe me are also qualities I find most appealing in a man: honest, empathic, funny, confident, handsome, honest, healthy, kind, fit, intelligent, honest. Did I mention honest? I'm not looking for a clone of myself, but humor, honesty, and a positive outlook on life are at the top of my list.

I'm relationship-oriented (having been in two long-term relationships in my life) and monogamous in my relationships. I'm not looking to get married tomorrow, but I'm not into hook-ups or serial dating either.

The online thing is fine, but nothing beats a real conversation over coffee (or even better, a martini). If this all sounds good or at least makes sense, let's chat.

Someone ...who has his *stuff* together and stands for something ...who takes care of himself emotionally and physically ...who knows life's too short not to laugh through it, even (especially?) when that means laughing at yourself ...who respects people and is unafraid to lead a life of integrity ...who thinks the golden rule is more than a cliche used to pad his online profile ...who knows why that last statement is pretty funny.
