One Thing I wanted to say to potential daters:

Even if a person is "fat, overweight" or whatever you call it, give that person a
chance. I guarantee you will find better qualities in that overweight person than you would on an egotistical, self centered skinny person. Just because the person is overweight DOES NOT mean that they stink, are gross, or smell like body odor. I, myself, DO NOT stink and take very good care of myself. When you send rude and nasty comments about fat people, you just make yourself look like the biggest moron and loser and make yourself out to have the worst life and lowest self-esteem. You must hate your life so bad that you feel the need to give someone who is overweight, a ration of crap! The world is overweight and one thing I would like to know...What would this world be like if the "skinny" person was the type that was the outcast! How would you feel? By the way ladies...even though your skinny now....have a baby and see how skinny you stay after your child birth! Then see if you have a different point of view when YOU have to go out and buy bigger clothes or your husband looks at you in a different light!

Just think about the person your looking at as being fat and overweight and how it could be you! One medical issue, childbirth, excessive eating, body composition, etc! It could be something that hits you in a few months and then what? Think about the fact that the other person has feelings as well. I, myself, do EVERYTHING that most skinny people do. I am a volunteer firefighter, paramedic and put myself in the public spotlight everytime I do an appearance for the radio station or stand on stage to introduce an artist at a concert. I am fat...SO WHAT!


My name is Jeff and its my pleasure to share my life with you! I am an attractive 37 year old with brown hair and hazel eyes standing a mere 6'4" short. It used to be a bad thing to have worked in several different industries instead of settling on one job and working there forever, however, I disagree. I am not proud to of worked at various jobs over 20+ years, but there is not much that I cannot do. I have worked on a farm milking cows and planting fields, volunteer firefighter, custom van builder, etc! I am very proud at what I do now including working in radio as an On Air Personality for a country music station in Tampa. I am also a business owner in the vehicle electronics industry as well as working parttime as a paramedic. When needed, I also assist a buddy of mine who owns a Reposession and Private Property Impound Towing Service. I would say that reposessing vehicles is a trip and I see the best of the best and quite possibly the worst of the worst including getting a gun pulled on me..LOL!

I am from the beautiful State of Wisconsin and have been here 14 years, but I love to go home as often as I can for vacation. I love NYC as well and am very interested with everything to do with the World Trade Center disaster. I have been to quite a few states in the country and have been fortunate to have been able to tour Washington D.C. and the Gettysburg area. I live in Town and Country (West Tampa) with my two dogs and believe it or not, I actually have all my teeth, hair, no piercings or tattoos and actually have my own car.

I would love to meet someone who will see me for me and not what they think I should be. I actually had relationships not last because some of them were not comfortable with the guy always buying dinner/drinks, opening and closing the car door, and overall, too nice! If thats a fault, then its a fault that I will deal with! If your interested, please send me an IM or an email. I would love to chat with you!

I love carnivals/fairs(Florida State Fair begins February 6th, 2009), traveling, cruises, dining out, walking through the mall, weekend getaways, theme parks, car shows, flea markets, etc!

PS: Lets face it, looks are important to each person and you have to have that mutual attraction. I am interested in women who are skinny or big and beautiful. Size is not important to me. What is important to me is being comfortable with each other and who accepts me for who I am. I have lost some weight and now I am on a streak, but shallow I am not! Dont be afraid to send an email!

One last thing.....While I understand the word "dating" means just that, I do not want any part of dating multiple women. I concentrate 1000% on one lady and making her life enriched and happy and I could never put one girl off for another. Likewise, I do not want to be number 4 or 5 out of a list of guys that you may decide to call during the week to fullfill your life. If that means I remain single, then I will live with it! Please dont take that the wrong way, but to me, its respect!

I tend to think that first dates can be a bit stressful, so I am thinking that we meet for a drink or three...maybe a bloody mary (with lots of Mary...lol) a screwdriver, or maybe a maggyrita...LOL. I am also game for some Karaoke at a dive bar somewhere and dont care who hears me BECAUSE, I can actually sing and carry a tune in a basket....LOL! The Beer Shed in Riverview is da bomb! Then we can exchange social security numbers for arrest records and credit checks...lol.(I AM HONESTLY KIDDING). I say we just discuss what we both enjoy and would like and then go from their. Nothing major! I certainly hope to talk to you, soon!
