I should clarify the definition of "A few extra pounds" means in my case. I have broad shoulders, big arms,chest, and legs. I am built like a tank. Extremely strong and solid. It does not mean that I am some hot mess of a blob with rolls all over.I try to eat right an exercise whenever possible. I know just having face pics up made some of you think I was hiding something so I finally put a almost full length shot of myself on here, the quality is not all that good but hey you get the idea.
Something else about me that is unusual...Im not into watching sports at all. I know that is kindof wierd but it is what it is. Sporting events do not hold my interest very long and I almost never watch sports on tv.
You get what you see basically implies that I am what I am. I don't lie to make myself into something I am not. I don't sugar coat things or dance around the truth. It is what it is and I usually do not question it. Im completely blunt and brutally honest and if I have something to say I say it.I am highly opinionated and open, intelligent and unrestrained.
Im not native to this area, I was born and raised in Wooster, Ohio for the majority of my childhood. Being from the country I am somewhat old fashioned in certain aspects of my life and free and open with others. Please do not look at the fact that I do not have any children as a red flag, I just have not met anyone I wanted to be the mother if my kid(s). I dont drink by personal choice and I dont use drugs for the same reason. I asked one of my friends the other day to describe me so I knew what to put on here..she replied with "you are a suprisingly sensitive, intelligent, really nice guy." Just talk to me if you are even the tiniest bit curious.
I am currently a sophmore in college. My intention is to recieve my Bachelors Degree in Computer Science, after that I might even further my education and attain my MSEE.
Oh and this is pretty serious....
I have frontal lobe brain damage...My inhibition center is gone and my short term memory is messed up, I also have entirley different thought patterns than of someone without a head injury. Scans that have been done excessivly show that I have irregular brainwave activity when given everyday problems to overcome. This by no means indicates that I am damaged goods...lol. What this does mean is that I have no hesitation in saying what I am thinking. To some this comes off as anger or abrasiveness. It is neither. It is 100% untainted brutal honesty. I dont have the ability to think about I say before I say it. And yes I sometimes get called a a***hole by those who cannot fathom what I am experiencing. Or by those that cannot appreciate total and ultimate honesty. If you have any questions please feel free to write and ask them. You have no Idea the freedom you experience from asking for forgiveness as opposed to permission.
I also have Narcolepsy and Cataplexy, don't know the cause for either since they have just came to be roughly 5 years ago. The Narcolepsy is not a big deal, I take medication for it and It rarley interferes with my everyday life. However, the cataplexy seems to be giving me some issues. Whenever I have a strong emotion come over me I have an attack, be it finding something hilarious, getting angry, or making eye contact with someone I am really attracted to. YES this Sucks. Every normal person gets goosebumps and I have a Cataplexy attack and fall down, which usually causes other people to laugh which in turn makes me fall down again if I had the chance to get up in the first place. The humor factor really bothers me, I have always been a joker and the funny man in any group I am in. Used to get told all the time I should do stand up but that's never going to happen now.
Imagine what it would feel like to want to laugh and tell jokes all the time but you can't because you will end up on the floor. It's frustrating at the least but most of the time it is Purgatory.
So That's all my issues in a nutshell. I am not addicted to porn, I do not lie, I am not a drug addict or an alcoholic, I don't hit women, I don't cheat, And I have respect for those whom respect themselves.
I do however make every possible attempt to do the right thing in every situation regardless of the personal cost to myself. I am brutally honest when asked for my opinion, and sometimes it comes out without anyone asking me. It is part of what makes me "me".
I don't have any children, legitamate or illegitimate, I own my house and my bills are paid. So if you can get past the few irrelevant issues I do have and can see that I am unique then by all means talk to me. I can always use another friend if nothing else.
Now I put myself out there completely, did not hide anything and was totally upfront about everything. I hope someone out there can appreciate this.
JULY 28 2009
I have just about had my fill of this site. Some of the women on here are realistic and have been a real joy to converse with, BUT most of the women I have tried to contact fall severely short of normal in my opinion, and it is very little wonder why most of you are single. When someone pays you a genuine compliment you choose to respond with anger and sarcasm instanly it makes you beyond ugly in my eyes. Get over yourself, if you were "all that" you would not be on a dating site trying to get a man to begin with. Dating is hard enough these days without you expecting every man to fill superman's shoes, As I stated before SOME of the women I have talked with (and you know who you are) are very decent people. The rest..well...I see you living alone with a bunch of cats if you do not change your attitude...NOBODY IS PERFECT, NOBODY CAN EXPECT TO FIND THE PERFECT MAN OR WOMAN. Get off your high horse or be lonley the rest of your life.
When someone takes the time to say hello and pay you a genuine compliment at least take the initiative and have the common decency to say thank you if nothing else. Just going off on someone or blocking them or deleting the mail without even reading it is extremely RUDE and says alot about your character.
I also find most of the women on here extremely shallow. You all would rather have some a$$hole who is still married with 6 kids, lies to everyone and is probably a felon and treat women like shyt. Instead of someone real, just because they are attractive.
And some of you wonder why your relationships never work. It is because you do the same thing over and over with the same type of guy expecting different results. If you want something to change you have to change something.
If this comes across as bitterness when you read it I apologise but it is not. It is blunt observations I have compiled over my entire experience with this site, nothing more. I am not a woman hater. I am however a flake hater, and if I offended you it means nothing other than I struck a nerve.

How about we go cow tipping?...I know this great place where you barely get anything on your shoes...lol

Actually it really doesn't matter, I am open to suggestions as long as I dont end up with stitches or a cast. Anything else is fine with me, I am easy to please.
