Online Dating - CLINTB - Is intelligence more important then attitude when

I have a decent job that I work 40 hours a week. I work nights mostly as a cook in the St. Louis metro area. I’m also taking a few classes online so between work, school and spending time with my Son I don‘t have a lot of time. I’m very competitive and have been looking for someone to share my love of competition in everything from softball or all sports for that matter to video games or any kind of game. I like most anything physical as well as intellectual and usually turn out to be pretty good at them. It’s all for fun and I’m always a good sport about it. I’m really looking for someone who has similar tastes that likes or has children. Who is mellow and down to earth. Someone who has a positive outlook on life and isn’t afraid of doing things that might get you a little dirty or bruised. For example camping, motorcycle riding, snowboarding, surfing (yeah I know I can’t surf in Missouri but I’m from California and I visit regularly) to name a few. Don’t get me wrong I also love to relax. I usually relax by watching movies or T.V. video games once in a while as well as read various things. I’m just sick of bars and the last two women I was serious with I met at a bar and they didn’t work out so I thought I’d try something new. I’ve learned in my almost thirty years of life is that it really can pay to take it slow and let a friendship turn into something more. A little something about me. I like to please people, which makes me honest and considerate. Confident but modest I will try just about anything which makes me adventurous, spontaneous and fun. My friends consider me a sweet guy with a good sense of humor. More on the dry side of humor. Revenge and getting mad is just a waste of energy and time I’d rather laugh. I’m also considered pretty tough by my friends. I try to stay optimistic and have a positive attitude at all times. I believe what goes around comes around. Karma in one word. I have an open mind but not too liberal. I like to learn about people therefore I listen well. Now since you’re still reading you are interested. So drop me a line and we’ll go from there.
