This self-indulgent 45 year old who cares only for himself is hoping to curb my tendency toward loathesome self-pity long enough to discover a soul mate.
She should necessarily enjoy the entrenched traits of immaturity, slovenly ignorance, and unnattentiveness, yet be aloof, like me. I've heard it remarked of my frequent misogynous outbursts that I demonstrate a certain "joy of life" when acting this way. A sense of humour is important, as most can't see mine. Some, well one, at least, refers of you as "my next victim" while I still prefer to wallow in the self-delusion that happiness can be attained through positive communication and a strong desire for mutual respect. Yes, very humourous indeed. Especially considering it has been noted of me that I feel watching the hockey playoffs a "life skill".
While I can't recall this particular quote, it does have some wit and charm. More observations noted of me is I am "very industrious between jobs" and begin many initiatives I likely "intend" to finish.
My friends, well friend, affectionately calls me a "social retard" for the way I can get people to disperse in any social setting. This is a small paradox, as I have been referred of as "an attention seeker hogging any lime-light discernable my way, real or imagined".
After 17 years, I can honestly state my ex did her homework. She has carefully assessed every facet of my "one dimensional" personality as she joyfully remonstrates. I am grateful she spent so much time making me aware of my personality characteristics so I may now indulge in this quest to replace her.
Should this profile strike you as a project worthy of your energies, then by all means, respond below.
The only caveat is you must still be alive (a step up from my last relationship), anotomically correct, and biologically speaking still female.
Thank-you in advance for your further judgment.

Any date would be a good date.
Should you so choose to rescind your power to dictate the itinerary, then I must gratefully and eagerly request we spend some time chatting over a coffee. Wine or beer would be fine except my friend has informed me that to indulge in innebreative substances can alter my ability to discern honesty and therefore I have been told to avoid this. Walking is a great substitute for boredom, so needless to say I walk a lot and feel this is a good conversation substitute. Taking in a movie could possibly be another activity, but agreement on an adequate show is a potential deal breaker. To simplify, my first choice is a coffee at a smallish cafe` type setting. A waterside stroll is a close second, followed by a movie as a tie-breaking alternative.
