I am a genuine, honest, and outgoing man who loves . Jamgrass, Bluegrass, rock, jazz, blues, and jam bands in general are my favorites. I love attending music festivals, especially the NW String Summit and The Waterfront Blues Festival.. I very much enjoy conversation and learning new things, as well as exploring museums, hiking trails, parks, etc. I also appreciate movies and reading when I have time. . I want to be with someone who is honest, dependable, responsible, has a good career for herself and loves her job. I want her to have empathy and concern for others as I do as well as be a good listener and companion. I want to be treated as a person who is important in their lives while we are dating. Passive-aggressive personalities do not mix well with me. I respect the person I'm with and I expect the same respect back. I want to be able to openly share thoughts and ideas about life, politics, beliefs, etc. I want someone who is open-minded like myself, as I believe life isn't black and white. In short, I'm really ready to meet someone, engage in fun conversation, go out and see the city, and see where it leads!
