If you know what movie that line came from ...kudos to you. You're definitely my type of person. Please....please...pleeeeeeeeeease be funny. If you're life is about how serious and taciturn you can be...we definitely won't click. Be someone, who lives to smile and laugh, not someone who wears a constant frown on their face. God, I know people like that. Be someone who laughs out of the blue and then wonders why the heck they are laughing. If you possess a great sense of humor then read on, the stuff here is pretty funny.
ABOUT ME
I'm an up-front, college educated, gainfully employed smart aleck. My degree was in Fine Arts. I studied film/video production. I minored in everything else. LOL. Its not what I do now, but have been thinking about getting back into it again. I "do gots me" a career, though, so I'm a'ight. I can be a lovable pain in the ass. :-) I may be 47, but my mindset is definitely not 47. I tend to relate better with people far younger than me than those my age. I feel so old around them for some reason. LOL. Its as if even though time is going by physically, my mind refuses to age. God, I hope nothing is wrong with me, but I thank God for a spirit that wants to stay young. I'd hate to feel old !!! Everything has a lighter side. I prefer optimism over pessimism, so if you're a downer type person, we will not click. Snobs not allowed. I'm basically pretty laidback, but I do have one pet peeve and that is rudeness. There is absolutely no need for such idiotic behaviour. Other than that I just go with the flow.
I enjoy conversations about things that matter. Must be the feminine side of me...dear God. Lucky for me, I've been told I have a great voice. "Shoulda done radio" is what people tell me. Yeah, ok. Who knows...maybe I was a politician in a past life. I'm self-sufficient. I can cook and have been told I'd make someone a good wife. How embarassing, sheesh!!! I may have been a chef in a past life. Hmmm. At least I don't complain about leaving my own toilet seat up, even though I did fall in the bowl once. So, I, for one, do understand your pain ladies. That was such an Ally McBeal moment. I've got a great job, but am always looking to better myself and try to make sure I get the most out of my life. I'm working on a couple inventions right now as well as looking to start two businesses, so its kinda hectic right now, but hey...better than living a boring life. Now, I'm just looking to find someone who is the Yin to my Yang. I'm great with kids. I think I must have been a labrador retriever in a past life. Dare I say, "WOOF ?" Grrrr. Don't worry I won't hump your leg, ok! Jeez. Be careful if you scratch my belly though.
I'm also planning on going to Europe for the first time this year. Who knows..maybe we can combine vacations and go together. Would love a travel partner. On a totally different subject...I'd like to meet someone open to having a child or children. Everyone says I would be such a great dad, but it hasn't happened yet. I'm not the typical Puerto Rican with 10 kids running around. I made sure it didn't happen unless I was sure the mother was someone I was going to live with the rest of my life. No way was my kid gonna be part of a broken home!!! The thing about that strategy is..if I never find the 'One' it may never happen, so I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I'd just have to meet a woman so amazing that it would be fine to not have one, but I really doubt that would ever happen. I love a great head of hair on a gal. I'm a hair 'brusher' guy. Love brushing the hair..its so calming and no I'm not gay. Geez !!! I do just as well going out as I do just staying home and snuggling while watching a movie. Kinda old fashioned I guess. Just treat the woman as she deserves to be treated. Keep her happy...she keeps you happy. It's Win/Win.
ABOUT YOU
This is an APB for a classy, well-mannered, intelligent, funny, humble, gracious, and attractive WOMAN, who has some common sense. A person, who is a Bond girl in spirit...at least one of the brainier ones. She's someone decisive and confident. Kickass rocks as well. :-) Age isn't representative of whether a person is a woman or not. Its her demeanor, how she carries herself. Sense of humor is a must !! ;-p Remember, you must be someone I would be proud of bringing home to mom. There aren't many I have brought to meet her. Definitely, not looking for someone who is flighty and unsure of what she wants. I so hate wimpy women. Doesn't mean I'm not a good listener or can provide a strong shoulder to cry/lean on, but man, some just make drama out of everything. Sheesh!!!
Possessing a quick wit is really what I'm looking for. Someone who can give as good as she gets in the funny department. I love when I'm with someone and one of us says something where we cry from the laughter and can't breathe because we are laughing so hard. If you can hold your own in that department definitely say, "Hello." Lets chat...lets laugh. Also, if you're willing to jump out of a plane...thats a plus. This is explained in the date section. She must be someone, who when she writes in her profile, "Anything you want to know just ask," will actually answer when asked. Why write that if you're not open to actually being asked?? Kinda stupid I think. I'd love to be in the presence of a woman, who dreams of Mr Right, actually believes she deserves him, and doesn't get all flighty, when she finally meets him. We do exist.
I'm definitely not looking for a woman who wants to become an online player or one who is on her way to being an online addict. Been there ...done that. Thats a headache in the making. I really am looking for a woman, who if we connect is happy with the connection and really does want to get offline. I personally am not looking to dates hundreds of women. Just that one that makes me think of her when she isn't around. I find her...no need to be here anymore. If I find her the old fashioned way...no need to be here anymore. So, please no one who is looking to lure all the fish in the pond. No one counting the minutes to see the next time they can log on to see how much email they have received. Just someone looking for that one special guy. The way I see it...if there is a solid connection...why have the distractions while trying to build something. If you're someone who defends being online while building a relationship...definitely not for me. Makes me laugh when the defense is...well, you get online. Yeah ok...whatever. Even when I'm not online because I'm trying to focus on her because she is beginning to interest me...its a very common defense to defend an addiction. Just makes sense. If you disagree fine...I can see thats going to be your defense. No need to initiate contact or reply. If you agree feel free to say, "Hello." Again, not looking for player wannabes....just that girl with an old fashioned romantic spirit.
I'm sorry. I don't do first dates. Thats just plain dumb. I do first 'meetings.' No way am I bringing any type of expectation to meeting someone I have never seen face to face before. We'd just get together..hang out..do something fun and only then decide, if we can stand to be in each others space, whether or not to set up an actual date. Everyone has different tastes and I would try to choose something that would be fun for both of us and actually give us a lot to talk about when we are done. Only then can we use the word 'date.' Hopefully, something that would be remembered as our first great memory together. It all depends. It could be anything from going to see Spamalot, which I am dying to see or something a bit more intense..like skydiving. The one thing I would like is someone who has enough cojones to go skydiving at least once. I'm not comfortable with heights, but if I were to meet someone who would be up to it, then I may just do it because then I'd have to save face on the date. LOL. Its not bad enough to prevent me from flying. Ballooning is another thing I want to do. Flying a glider plane yet another. All these things to do with height, yet I'm scared of it. What am I thinking. LOL. But, I love the Empire State Building and The WTC when we had them. I loved Niagara falls and the pull of the gravity while standing by the rail as the water rushed by below. Awesome. I also love to travel. Looking to get to Europe for the first time this year. I can't wait. The whole plane and heights thing again. So, I don't have a fear of it. Its just the whole vertigo thing and all that. Doesn't happen on a plane though unless its turning. I think thats common though..equilibirium and whatnot. Kinda odd because my job entails dealing with heights. Can I pick 'em or what.
I can't really answer this without sounding corny or fake. It all depends on the individual I meet.
