Laid back guy looking for love I'm recently divorced and am ready to start dating again. Seems online dating is the way to go nowadays and I'll always try something once. One of the main qualities I look for in a woman is intelligence. Nothing is more attractive and sexy than a woman who can hold her own in a conversation. Stupidity is a big turn off to me, doesn't matter how hot you are.  I love to talk and can talk about anything. Another quality that is a must for me is a love of music. I listen to all genres of music except country and even that's not as bad as it used to be. DI'm a musician and if I'm not playing music, I'm listening to it. In bands I mostly play hard/alternative rock, stuff like pearl jam, incubus, nirvana, etc. When I play live I tend to play hard, fast, and energetic. When I'm practicing I play everything from Dave Matthews band to blink-182 (2 of my favorite living drummers). I also love practicing to anything Motown or stax, rhythm and blues (not the crap they call r&b now, it's pop, I mean old school rhythm and blues and there is a big difference), classic rock and some pop. I'm always keeping an ear out for new bands/artists and would love a woman that can expose me to some. I hate people who r stuck in one decade of music, u need to be open to new things and not just with music. I've been listening to a lot of synth/electronic rock lately. Bands like passion pit, cage the elephant, the downtown fiction, etc. I love going out and checking the local music scene. You never know if an up-and-commer might be playing in your own back yard. I also love to cook and am pretty good at it. I'm Italian so that is what I cook the best but I also love cooking chienese food, Mexican, american, and recently Indian cuisine. I don't bake cause I hate measuring. I just cook by feel and u can't do that with baking. I've always wanted to take a cooking class but never had the time. Now I'm going to make time for cooking and everything else I put off cause I've got no mor
