I'm told that I stay to myself a lot. I don't go out much because of my overnight work schedule. At least my weekends are always free, but I tend to stick to the same routine. I’m probably one of the quietest guys you'll ever meet. But, there are some things that make me tick. Basically, I never had a girlfriend, and I rarely ……well, never date (yes this profile is current in case you are wondering). In a nutshell, it's because I don't trust ANY of them, since this is the DC Metro Area, most of them are so stuck on themselves. It's seems like once I try to get to know them, all they want to talk about is their exes. If you're so into your ex, why don't you get back with him and save me the time and trouble. Oh, they say one thing and do something totally different. Those things and more I do not have time for AT ALL!!! Maybe it's just me. There's nothing wrong with watching out for one's self. Hey, if I'm lying, I'm dying. Guess what, I'M NOT DYING ANYTIME SOON!!!

I put other people, my family in particular, ahead of myself, which has come back to bite me at times. I appear to possess a brick wall that makes it hard for people to get through sometimes. Once I am comfortable with someone, I'm pretty easy to get along with. However, I'm definitely not the touchy-feely type, but not to the point of having a cold heart. I understand a woman needs her space once in a while. I respect that, so I promise not to smother you. I recently realize how short life is and how it shouldn't be taken for granted.

Sorry if this sounds negative. There have been messages I've received recently that made me respond the way I have. So putting it out there would hopefully get rid of the BS I've been dealing with. A few messages from girls stating that I was too mean or that I didn't know what I was talking about. Well, I got three words, "GET OVER IT!!!" I'm not mean, only realistic. If you can't figure out the difference then you need help!

Simply put, I'm here to meet new people, starting off as FRIENDS and go from there. Of course, I want to be in a relationship, get married, have kids but I don't want to rush things. No I’m not afraid of commitment, so I don't know why all women think that!!! If you're looking for someone to impress "daddy", someone to use to get revenge on your ex, someone to pay your bills, someone to be your chauffeur, someone to be your therapist, it sure as hell won't be this guy. If you have baggage or just on here as a tease to show off your body and have no intent on meeting, don't even think about contacting me. That includes friends with benefits, too. If that's what you want, don't play with me, play with yourself, you freak.

As long as you is respectful, emotionally stable, has a sense of humor, DOES NOT TALK ABOUT YOUR EXES OR PAST RELATIONSHIPS, and doesn’t let anything or anyone get in your way, then I like to get touch with you. Looks can only get a woman so far with me. One who has a passion for helping other people and love going on spur of the moment trips are bonuses. I someday would like to show that special person the world. But, there's an old saying "money can't buy happiness".If any of these positive (depends on how you look at it) characteristics describe you, or if you have any questions you want to ask me, then go ahead and drop me a line or two. Maybe you're the one out there that can prove to me that all women are not the same. Hopefully there are some good people out there.

Open to anything, preferably a quiet, PUBLIC place(nothing too formal and not a movie theatre because I don't want you pick-pocketing me)to get to know the person better. No pressure, AS LONG SHE DOESN'T MENTION EXES OR PAST RELATIONSHIPS!!! Because that would kill the whole mood:(

NOTE: If you don't hear back from me if you sent me an email, don't take it personally. You're just not good enough.
