I am a nerdy, introverted, hands on engineer. I like to spend my time on DIY home improvement projects, walking around the Missouri Botanical gardens, eating ethnic food, cooking, listening to music, gardening, watching videos on YouTube and learning new things. I would like to travel and work on seeing all of the national parks and go camping and hiking at them. I am currently self employed running a small machine shop Bull Moose Engineering & Manufacturing LLC. Which has been in business for 4 years and I have been self employed for 2. I have 3 wonderful cats who are my fur babies. They mean the world to me so being okay with being around cats is important. I am hoping to find a wonderful girlfriend to come home to, go out with, to hangout with, to have intelligent conversations with, to travel with and naturally to be physically & emotionally intimate with when the time is right. To love and be loved by!!! A woman whom I could envision marring some day and starting a family with. With whom I could spend the rest of my life with. FYI: I have my heart set on becoming a father some day. I made up my mind that I wanted kids when I was 19 and in the 15 years since then I have never changed my mind or questioned my desire to become a father. For full disclosure I am as introverted as people come and I tend to be a home body. I have minimal dating experience and sadly have never been in a relationship. This is by far the biggest disappointment of my life. I can assure you that I am not broken or defective. Just a very nerdy and very introverted guy who is nice, smart, honest, thoughtful, caring, considerate, loyal and responsible. A guy who sincerely wants more than anything to be in a close long term relationship and is willing to put in the effort to be a wonderful boyfriend. I am not trying to imply that I want to rush into things but emphasize that I know what I want and that I understand that there is going to be a lot to learn. I hope you will give me a chance.
