Echohrey, 55

I'm easy going and nonjudgmental. I'm honest, trustworthy and supportive. I do not like to argue and choose to talk things out. I believe self improvement is important to maintain personal growth. This to me is a life long process. I like light conversation, but I also like someone that is going to challenge me intellectually. God is important to me as I raise my daughter with Christian values and with integrity. I want to grow old with peace in my life.

I'm looking for someone who understands that relationships are hard work and when things get tough (which they inevitably do at times) will be commited to working through the tough patches and use the experience as an opportunity to strengthen the relationship. Love is a choice and worth fighting for with the right person. The "connection" we first feel at the beginning of a relationship can fade as life hits and throws curve balls. A connection is also a choice and I am looking for someone who understands this and is willing to work together to reconnect. A man who communicates his emotional and physical needs is a must. Someone who does not put his friends before his family. Everyone needs time with their friend, but in moderation. A man who has good financial sense and plans for the future.

I like casual diners with a movie, but also love to try different fine dining restaurants and go to the theatre and art galleries (especially to view the work of local artists). It is a must that there is give and take with activities. Days or nights out can't always be the preference of one person...their needs to be a balance.
