Date men and women from United States / Arkansas / Cherry Valley, 61 year old

Date men and women from Arkansas, United States. Keep busy, teaching Army JROTC, maintaining and refurbishing my classic cars. Working on my Drag Car and Racing it when I can find the time. Have been Widowed almost 8 years, haven't found anyone who can put up with me very long at a time. I guess I am just a bit too selfish with my time, or I just haven't found anyone who could take my interest away from my hobbies. But I am open to that possibility, just feel that there may not be a woman out there who has the ability, or the determination to try to change my mind.
Have been told that I am self centered, because of my interest in cars, maybe so, but a car will not break your heart, a car will not be jealous, a car will be a no strings attached companion. My reply to that is, I am a mans man, I spent almost 30 years in the Military. I directed more varried operations than most men have ever read about, not conducted. I have been responsible for the lives and welfare of more men than most people even know. I am responsible to myself and the Good Lord, no one else. If you are a lady and can't understand this, then I feel for you, I just cant reach that far. I am what I am, no one but the Good Lord can or will change me. I am empathetic to other people, I just feel that I was not put here on this earth to make their life easy. I am very adamant about my beliefs, I do not like slackers, and people who stand around with their hands in their pockets expecting a hand out from all of us who work for what we have. If you cannot tolerate someone who does what they want, and think that because they have things that they enjoy doing, but are different from yours. Then it appears to me that you are looking for a "WIMPPY" man who has no mind or wants of his own, only want some one who will submit to all your wishes and not stand up for himself. IF THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR, would be a good idea for you to move on to someother profile, that is definitely not what is on the other end of this profile. I believe in mutual acceptance of ideas and think that people can compromise and incorporate other peoples wants and needs, but never expect me to become someone's little lap dog.
