| | Bonjour,
here is my attempt to e-prove to you that I'm not a tool. Seems we all hate writing these profiles, not so much because it's painful or embarrassing but rather, I think, because we know we are being judged solely on a few words rather than how wonderfully beautiful and charming we all are :S
So it goes...
I figure you'll want to know a few things about me. Maybe you'll like one or two. Who knows?
1. Really into honesty. So, for better and for worse, you can expect the truth from me. I won’t kiss your ass and tell you how beautiful you are if I don’t mean it so you’ll know I mean it when I do. This also means you can (you should!) be brutally honest with me. I’ll find it sexy and charming.
2. Easy going, open-minded, spontaneous, sociable, compassionate, even a little funny. I’ll socialize with your friends. I won't stick to you at parties. Won’t get jealous when other dudes hit on you (it's a compliment!) I’ll dress nicely and act mature and respectable if need be and will generally impress your roommates and pets. if I dig you I might even read you stories in bed, massage your feet and visit your grandma.
3. I sometimes have a hard time making important decisions right away. I mean, it might take me a few months. In other words, I actually think about things. You may want your men to be more decisive than me. No worries, I'm sure there are loads of musclemen here who are great at that.
4. I like books, movies, art, music, travel, ideas, etc. We all do because we're smart. I also enjoy concerts, museums (great places for daydreaming) and spend a lot of time at the CCA (architecture is my big passion!) I can tell you lots of cool useless things over coffee, beer or cheap indian food, get high and ponder Plato with you and then go home and fantasize about your sexy brains. And I can quote Seinfeld like nobody’s business.
5. Active and in good shape. I generally get along better with the type of girl who doesn't care about this stuff, but I still do. It's cool to take care of your body. I mean, what else do you really have? Besides, I just love rock climbing and basketball and biking. I like to eat somewhat healthy, but will never ever turn down a trip to Schwartz’s :)
6. Kinda funny. Not too sure how to describe my humour. Let’s call it one part Woody Allen, one part cheeky kindergarten kid and one part sarcastic cynic. You might not like it, but know that it’s live and well. Disclaimer: I can get carried away. Some find it inappropriate, insensitive, plain old disgusting, but as Mel Brooks once said: “Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die”.
7. Ambitious. There’s a whole lot I plan to do, create, accomplish while I’m here kicking around with the other 6 billion of you. I’m into business and consider entrepreneurship to be an important part of who I am. Some of my medium term goals include: making architecture(!), making a comedy set in India, designing a playground, teaching urbanism and living in a few other countries. like sweden. and chile.
8. This internet dating this is really bizarre and, probably like you, I haven't had such great experiences. But I figure my dream babe must be out there somewhere, and i like to fantasize about her sitting there in her undies at 2 in the morning, listening to the Pretenders, eating a huge hunk of cheddar, reading my spiel and thinking to herself: "wow, this guy is cool. maybe i should offer him some cheese"
9. I'm not a creep. or a social retard. or a toothless hunchback. but i do feel like a huge nerd for having taken the time to write all this stuff. oh well. hopefully you got a laugh or two. pics on request btw.
I might have scared away most girls by now, which was kinda the point :S
So if you’re still kicking I thank you for your interest. Really, I’m flattered. And if all this sounds ok to you please write and say hello. Tell me your favourite ice cream or the concert you most want to see if you can’t think of anything else. I'd love to hear from you.
hope you find a fish worth frying...
