Date men from United States / California / Tarzana, 33 year old

Date a soulmate from Tarzana, United States. I always find this part difficult. How do I convey and show in a few words who I am without sounding like you have read this profile thousands of times? It's hard to show personality through words, though I guess there are ways to do it. However to be frank, I have yet to learn that trick. So the question is, what do I say? Should I say that I am very driven, career orientated, gainfully employed as a commodity trader which I know in this difficult economy is a plus, or does that matter? Should I say I'm a creative person who in the past was a singer/songwriter and you can find me on itunes....I promise the songs aren't bad......well assumming you like my type of music and yes, one of my pics on this site was for my album cover.... You can guess which. (Hint: Its the one I try to look smoldering, but failed....insert smiley face here. :). I have been described by my female friends as a guy who wears his heart on a sleeve, knows when to say a witty joke to inspire a smile, romantic to a fault but has what they call occasional foot in the mouth syndrome....I.e., I can be very blunt at times cause as I get older, I realize sometimes the truth has to be said. Never saying or speaking the truth can build resentment over time and without being honest with yourself or those around you, how are you ever gonna grow to be a better person? Hopefully whoever is reading this agrees with that. So if that sounds like your cup of tea, and this profile discription has given you a little insight to my personality and you like it, feel free to write back. Obviously if you are reading this, we got the first hurdle out of the way which is that you find my pictures somewhat appealing and so the next part is to see if we have chemistry. As my original headline once was: " Lets talk, lets see if you are the right one for me."....I know bad rhyme...Didn't say lyrics were my strong suit as a singer/songwriter....
