... on HIMSELF

Best qualities: "Honest, loyal, funny, being a good uncle, great cuddler!"
I consider myself a very laid back person. Not much bothers me. I am NOT a jealous person at all, and I like to go out and have a good time with my friends and my girlfriends. I am a driven person within my career, but I also believe that life is short and that you have to enjoy yourself whenever you can."

Weaknesses: "Not a morning person. Sometimes I can be indecisive. CHOCOLATE. A woman with an accent."

What I see in myself that others may not see: "I feel that I am a deeper and more emotional person than what people first see. I often use sarcasm or humor to lighten up a situation, which may sometimes be taken the wrong way. I am a great listener and love to hear people's life stories."

I've been known to ... "sleep in till `whenever' on the weekends! I love to take naps … However, I can stay out and party with the best of them."

Interests: "I am a huge fan of the beach and love to be outside in the sun. I have a jetski that I ride all summer. I enjoy anything out in the sunshine, golf, tennis, baseball, volleyball. I work out daily. I also love listening to music and renting movies. I have season Buffalo Bills tickets with my sister."

Turn ons: "Long pony-tails on women, women who like to order dessert, travel, sexy dresses or lingerie on my girlfriend, sense of humor on a girl, a welcoming smile."

Turn offs: "Lazy people, rainy days, too much make-up, a women who smokes, people who complain about everything."

Special Talents: "I can blow bubbles with my tongue!"

Awards, Titles: "I have been involved in sports my whole life. I was All-American in Swimming in  High School, and was All-Conference in College. I played one year of Professional Baseball for an Independent League. I played for a team in Niagara Falls. I was on the All Academic Atlantic 10 Conference Team (4 Years). This is given to student-athletes who excel on the playing field and also in the classroom. You have to maintain a certain GPA and also be one of the top performers in the Conference in your sport. I also received the "Merit Award" which is given to the 1 Senior Athlete who Excelled above everyone else in the classroom and on the playing field!"

Charities: "Give donations to several charities throughout the year."

15 minutes of fame: "Bachelorette 2 - I made it to the final four. What I liked best about being on a reality show was the amazing friendships that I took away from it. I am close to a lot of the guys from the show. They are a great group of guys, and I feel many of them will be life long friends."

Travels: "I love to travel. I believe it helps to calm and relax a person. I have been to Brazil, France, Switzerland, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and on a cruise. I have also traveled all over the US, but there are still many places I want to go."

Spirituality: "I was brought up Catholic. Religion is not a huge part of my life." 

Fashion sense: "I like to keep up on fashion, but I don't need name brands. I wear what I feel comfortable in. I like getting dressed up in a suit, but I can lounge around in my flip-flops too!" 

Staying healthy: "I work out 5 times a week. I use this time to clear my head of things that might be bothering me. I try to watch what I eat, but it always doesn't work because I have a huge sweet tooth!"

What touches my soul: "When my nieces and nephews come running to me and call me `Uncle Chad.'"

... on WOMEN 

I first notice ... "her hair color and smile. A woman who is smiling seems to be more welcoming and less intimidating to go walk up to and start a conversation with."

A woman can get my attention ... "by smiling and saying hello, making me laugh helps too."

Ideal woman: "I don't believe there is one ideal woman out there. However, someone who I can be myself around and has a great sense of humor is good enough for me." 

I can't resist a woman who ... "has an exotic look or has an accent from a foreign country!"

Most important quality in a woman: "Honesty."

What makes me call a woman back after a first date: "If she was smart, relaxed, witty and made me feel comfortable. Sometimes I just know when `it' was there!"

I would never date a woman who ... "is a chain smoker."

How I show a woman I care about her: "I like to surprise her with little gifts on random occasions. I keep in mind when we are together things that she mentions she likes and then I surprise her with one of those items. Also, I think simply by noticing little things it shows you care. I always try to notice and compliment her when she is wearing something new or has done something different with her hair."

What makes a woman unforgettable: "She has a lot of confidence but is not afraid to make fun of herself."

I wish women understood ... "that men are men and women are women. We both have different needs and sometimes guys just need to be guys and get things out of their system. It is not because we are immature or anything, but sometimes having a crazy time with the guys is healthy for us."

... on RELATIONSHIPS 

Views on relationship/marriage: "I dated a girl all through college (4 years), and I was also in a 4 ½ year relationship too. Both were great relationships but just not the girl that I was to spend the rest of my life with. I feel that having several serious relationships is a healthy part of life. I believe that I learn from each relationship that I am in, eventually realizing what is important to me in a relationship, and certain simple things that should be done in a relationship to help make it a healthy one. I want to get married when it feels right, and NOT because I have been dating someone for an extended period of time and that marriage seems like the next logical step. Marriage is supposed to be a lifelong commitment, and that is what I want. People in a marriage should be able to be best friends as well as a committed couple." 

Top relationship keys: "Communication. I think that is the most important ingredient to a healthy relationship. If something is on your mind, you should talk with your significant other right away, and NOT try to bury it and assume things will get better on its' own. Also, showing physical affection or being intimate with each other is important as well. This part shouldn't fizzle out even after being together for a long time."

A woman who is in a relationship with me can expect ... "to laugh a lot and have a lot of fun. I like to do pretty much anything, from tailgating at sporting events, to going out for a romantic dinner and then to the theatre for a musical. She can also expect someone who is loyal and honest."

What I expect: "Same as above. Treat me like you would like to be treated."

When I'm in love, I ... "have a special glow in my eyes that my family sees. They seem to see that I am in love even before I realize it. I guess that is why they say `love is blind.'"

What makes me feel close to a woman: "When I can really open up to her and feel comfortable saying anything to her."

Greatest relationship lesson: "Don't be afraid to tell someone exactly how you feel about them. Don't assume they already know."

What makes a woman marriage material: "She has a level head on her shoulders and knows what she wants out of life. Also, a woman who likes to go out to dinner and isn't afraid to REALLY eat!" 

... on SEX 

What makes sex good: "Can it be bad? But, if you need an answer, I would say spontaneity."

I feel my sexiest when ... "I can tell that my girlfriend really wants me."

Most sensual part of a woman's body is ... "the lower curve of her back above her waist line, and her neck."

Sexiest thing a woman can wear in private is ... "a colored bra and thong with her hair falling into her face."

Surefire way for a woman to seduce me: "You will have to figure this out on your own." 

... on LIFE

Making my mark: "By being myself and trying to do the right thing. I don't need to be in the spotlight, I just want people to remember me as a good person who cared for others and took the time to appreciate the little things in life."

Responsibility to society: "Try to do the right thing. Be a good parent and role model."

Valuable life lesson: "That tomorrow is not guaranteed, so it is OK to take risks today."

Three things I must do in this lifetime: "Get married, raise kids, own a beachfront house."

Best advice received: "Every decision you make is the right decision. You may not realize it right away, but everything eventually works out."

Best advice I've ever given a woman: "Don't change your dreams for a guy. Make yourself happy first. If you are unsure, then it probably isn't the right thing to do."

... on HIS FAVORITE THINGS

Movie: "Good Will Hunting."'

TV Show: "Seinfeld."

Book: "The Alchemist & Catch Me if You Can."

Music: "Any music. I am not big on Heavy Metal or Old Country music. I like the Barenaked Ladies, Jack Johnson, Counting Crows and any reggae music."

Food: "My weak spot!! I love all food, especially desserts! I have an addiction to Peanut M&M's, also Creamy Peanut Butter, and finally ice cream. Going out to dinner is fun with me."

... final THOUGHTS

Wheels: "I usually have a company car."

Pets: "I love dogs. My girlfriend or wife has to be a dog lover. I grew up with dogs my whole life. I currently have a Doberman Pinscher named Cobi. She is very gentle and sweet. She says hello!"

Tattoos/piercings: "I don't have any. I thought about getting a Cheetah tattoo because that was my father's nickname (in memory of him) and is also one of my favorite animals. On women, tattoos are OK, as long as they are not super visible while she is fully clothed. A subtle one hidden is better. On a woman, pierced ears or bellybutton are fine with me. Anything else is up to you!

Items always in my refrigerator: "Salsa, cheese and milk."

Hottest possession: "My digital camera. I love taking pictures and capturing the `moment.'" 

I would change places for 24 hours with ... "Pedro Martinez, the pitcher for the Boston Red Sox. He has my dream job."

I would most like to hang out with ... "my father again."

Why I'm such a great catch: "I am a fun, genuine, outgoing, caring and a loyal person. I am very easy going, and believe that relationships are about trust. I will trust you unless you give me a reason not to. I am very driven, and know that whatever I put my mind to, I can achieve and succeed at. That goes for both personal and professional aspirations." 

Me in a word: "Genuine."
