So I saw this great profile.

She's attractive. She has some fun pics. She has a full and sensible list of interests. And then, of course, a description of what she's looking for.

For me, the description is epiphanic. A quote...

"...don't be asking to go out on a date, to 'hook up', or any of that other crap!"

It continues...

"I'm laid back and easy going. I love to have a good laugh and am always open to trying new things. If you also like any of my interests then hopefully we have a few more things in common and we can hang out!"

In my mind, this is a wise approach to dating.

So...that's what I'm offering. If you'd like some company, I'll find some time.


TOP SECRET: Stealing Jack's heart

Jack is an equal opportunity suitor. He's very open.
When asked what he especially likes...long legs in high heels, and long hair, on tough, slender, sultry, fun, *chill,* freckled, fair-skinned femmes (phew...takes his breath away), and women who possess any combination of those attributes.
Additionally Jack has a fatal weakness for a dark-haired woman with a pretty face.
He's a relationship guy, and he's ready for a commitment. He hopes to find "the one" soon.
FYI, as a partner he's patient, understanding, loyal, and fun.
Approach with a smile and an open heart.

afishcalledjack's Meditations on POF

Girl's point of view: There are a lot of goofballs here.
Guy's [my] point of view: She'll probably think I'm a goofball. ;)

Most girls have a low tolerance for stupid messages.
Most guys have a low tolerance for rejection.
Most guys and girls should get over these things. It's a learning process.

Lastly... Never... NEVER... N-E-V-E-R check the status of sent messages. Just be happy with what you've sent, that's what's important.

(You write 'em, I pick 'em)

Headline top list

*NEW* "Laughter is an instant vacation."

"Issue-free since 2009." (Seen shortly after New Year's Day 2009.)

"Cowboy Or Even Just A Hat"

"Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder."

"Witches Parking. Others will be toad."

"I HEART [Fill in your name here]"

"Whiskey Tango Foxtrot"

"Never give up...unless you're a stalker."

afishcalledjack's Motto/Proverb top list

"Fear is the mind killer"

"Spontaneity is the secret to life"

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams..."

I'd like to take a different approach. Forget the old first date standbys, and leave your dating rule book at home.
If you can relax and have a good time, that's a good start.
