Date men and women from United States / Arkansas / Austin, 41 year old

Date people from Arkansas, United States. Sometimes traveling down the path of life one comes to a fork in the road. One direction, the path is smooth and easy. The other direction, the path is rocky and strewn with thorns. Which path should I take? I have taken the smooth path in the past and it isn't as smooth as it looks. I choose to take the the rocky path, cause I believe the reward is worth it. Nothing in life comes easy. Let's face it we have all had disapointments in the past. Our future is what we make it. If we are willing to see a person's soul and heart, instead of outward looks, we could find something will be far more rewarding than vanity. Can one be happy? Someone told me not to settle. Now most believe that refers to looks. I don't believe that is the whole story. Lifelong happiness is not defined by looks alone. I just want to be happy with someone who likes affection, love, and true happiness. My children are adjusting to my recent divorce much better than I thought they would. My ideal women must accept my children's needs as well as mine. I will do the same in return. So many people have told me that I am the ideal father, I take pride in that. My children love me with an unconditional love that is rare these days. I provide for my kids, they never want for anything. If you want to witness something momentous, send me a line. I believe you might like what you find. God Bless!

Meet a soulmate from Arkansas, United States. I love being home, but I love going out once in a while too. I love to play pool. I would do more outdoor things if I had someone to do them with. I love to fish, camp out, just don't get to do it much. I would love to get back into horseback riding again, it's been years.
My ideal partner would need to be an optimist, and adhere to the fact that everything happens for a reason, good or bad. I love my jobs and the people I work with and hope he loves his too.
As far as the more personal things, you will just have to ask me.
