How can a woman get my attention: "Smile." 

Ideal woman: "I prefer women who are attractive and don't know it or act like they know it. I like a woman to be "low maintenance" where they don't require you to do everything. I will do just about anything for my woman and spend lots of money on her. I just don't want it required of me. I like to do it because I want to not because I have to. I like for a woman to be affectionate, have common interests wih me and be supportive."

Keys to a great relationship: "The very first thing that comes to my mind is trust. Trust is the foundation to any relationship. Without it, there's nothing to build on.
