Date someone special from California, United States. I'm too sexy for my cat. Yes. Really.
Ok, I concede that my being sexy is debatable. Truth be told I'm a bit of a mutt but I still have WAY to much going on to be coming home to no one other than a narcoleptic pet with an OCD cleaning disorder. Since I'm not one to complain let's move on, shall we?
"Alright then, tell us a bit about yourself Alan." Well ok then. Let me start off by disclosing that I'm old-fashioned in some ways. "Hows that?" Well,for example, I like to do the little things to show my caring and respect for the woman in my life. "Like what?" Well, how about the tried and true ones like opening a door, pulling out a chair and....wait for it..... actually listening to what she has to say.(excluding gossip) What’s so difficult about doing a little unexpected nicety for no particular reason? For the record, i'm a huge flirt, BUT only with the woman who has my heart. "For example?" How about a text admitting that her eyes/neck/hair/smell/laugh/last night...is keeping me from concentrating on my work. For me, there is just something that feels right about holding hands. I admit that it sounds cliche, but in general when it comes to relationships and otherwise, I have a "pay it forward" mentality.
“Ok, Alan other than how you treat the special woman in your life, what else do you have to offer?" That's a fair question. Let see. Well, I can fix everything and build anything. I enjoy cooking... but I'll trade that for cleaning if you're the better cook. Your call. I have thousands of pounds of camping gear and I'm not afraid to use it. I like to go to garage sales,flea markets and the such to poke around for hidden treasures. "How about museums/plays/concerts/clubs?" Absolutely. “Don’t you sit around all Sunday watching sports on TV?” NEVER. “Play sports?” You bet. "Watch them live?" With as many friends as possible. “Any good at billiards/darts/ping pong/foosball/bar games /drinking games?” You’ll want me as your partner, NO-DOUBT. Plus, I hardly ever get into bar fights anymore! (just kidding).
"If you had to describe yourself in a word what would it be?" I would say highly adaptable. Oh wait, that’s two words. Again, Let's move on.
I love to laugh and sometimes I can be a bit silly. "Sometimes.....?" Ok, most times. But I have a deeper side. I will never say no to sitting around a fire pit on a cool night with a great bottle of wine discussing the mysteries of the universe. "You're not a couch potato are you?" No. Am I able to spend an entire day on the couch watching Shark Week or the such and not feel guilty? YEEEEP. "Your not a workaholic are you?" Perhaps. In balance though. That is to say if we have plans I can easily put work aside.
Allow me to give you an overview of my character.
I’m more often than not on time. I give better than I get in just about every way. I'm the level headed guy at the bachelor party that,while still having a good time,keeps his buddy from doing something that he would absolutely regret later.If someone makes a mistake in my favor I D0 NOT treat it as a windfall. I'm the guy people turn to when they have been arguing and need a silly question answered like...what is the population of the earth or what is the deepest point on the planet.I have 37 friends on Facebook and the rest are merely acquaintances.I just say no to drugs,married women and long distance relationships....Oh yeah and women without profile pictures.
Whew. Rereading this makes me wonder how many times one can use "I" in a profile without coming across as narcissistic. But,since I'm on a role, would it be piling on to say that I love my mom and I can keep plants alive?
Seriously though, I'm always happy when I make new friends. Possibly some of the women I meet here will result in friendships but in truth I am here in the hope of meeting "her."Not her for right now but her from now on.Having said that,I will leave the rest to be discovered in person.Thanks for shopping.
Alan
