Date a soulmate from Alabama, United States. After reading my $40 professionally composed profile, it occurred to me that every novelist must despise that person who writes the blurb on the inside sleeve of a hardback or the back of a paperback. I'm not some short summary of characteristics or events. I'm not the blurb on the book cover -- I'm every word on every page. No -- I'm everything that got edited out of that book. Wait -- I'm the flawed manuscript prior to proofreading, misspellings and factual errors and bad dialog included. No, that's not right either. I'm the kernel of an idea a writer had -- a fantastical dream -- unfinished, incomplete, ripe with potential and nothing at all like the finished product you're going to find on a bookstore shelf.

I hate writing profiles. This is like taking the slug of a .357 point-blank in the chest. Bits of bone and gore erupt in the explosion. I end up sprawled across a nighttime, neon-soaked sidewalk while the busy, bustling world walks by (or over) me with only an occasional, furtive glance in my direction. The slowing drumbeat in my ears throbs in time with the pumping of that savaged, singed muscle in my open chest.
She looks down at me, hands on her hips. "Summarize yourself," she says. "Tell me everything I need to know about you using few enough words that I won't get bored."
Well, now I've got two words for you, doll. Is that few enough?

I am fictitious and lyrical, abstract and whimsical.
I am sardonic and imaginary. I never answer a straight question.
I am metaphorical, and much like a simile.
I am an antihero caught up in the conflicting foreshadows of a plotless life.
I am the twist at the end.
I've made two people cry with the power of my sarcasm. It's that good.

What am I doing with my life? Why does everyone have to be doing something with their lives? Why can't we just live them? I think the world already has too many people twirling their lives around like batons, smacking everyone around them in the face with them.
I'd rather weild my life like a gun. If I'm pointing it at you, it's because YOU are special, not because I want you to think I am. So I coast on, day to day. Take the bad with the good. Look for beauty amidst ugliness. Impose order on my chaos. Occasionally turn it around and let loose some chaos within my order.
Go to work. Watching a movie. Go out for drinks. Play a video game. Read a book. Whatever gets me through another lonely night.
"That's not very impressive," she says.
Yeah, well, you get to be the chaos, sweetheart.

My match might be someone who reads all of this and thinks: I better wink at this guy.
Meet men and women from Alabama, United States. My job is my life right now, but now that I'm adjusted to here, I'd like to start meeting people outside of work, and hopefully a great girl. I enjoy being active (I typically run 4 to 5 miles daily) and want a girl who will be active with me. Now she doesn't have to run with me, it's just easier to work out/stay in shape when it is important to your partner also. Additionally I want a partner who can enjoy down time with me too. I follow Christ and want someone who shares my faith, and can help me excel in it.
Education is also very important to me. I do enjoy conversations on deep and meaningful typics, so I want someone who can understand things and discuss them with.
Now I also play video games, but my partner wouldn't have to enjoy them, just not mind that I do.
I am also very allergic to animals. I don't dislike animals, it just makes it very hard for me to be around them for extended periods. If you don't trust me on that, watch the hives that break out after some time.

My favorite thing to do is having potlucks with my friends. I'm a relational person but not really extroverted. Folks think I'm interesting; I've done a lot of traveling and I think it has given me some perspective in life.

Meet people from United States. Accomplished guy that's very responsible and consistent. I'm looking for that special someone that I can enjoy life with in all aspects. I like a woman that knows how to have fun in moderation. A women that can make a man feel privileged to the point where she gets what she wants because she gives a man what he is looking for in a woman. Any woman with a sense of humor is a plus in my opinion.
What I bring to the table is the fact that I am established, but yet I'm still setting obtainable goals for myself. I'm not uptight because I don't live my life to impress others. I'm educated with only one 5 year son, plus I have stable employment. Yes I have flaws but I work them to my advantage so they haven't prevented me from livng my life to the fullest.
