Date men from United States / Colorado / Colorado Springs, 40 year old - page 3

Date someone special from United States. I believe my friends would describe me as a fun person with a good sense of humor as well as being caring, compassionate and driven to grow as a follower of God. Along with these traits, my honesty and dedication to a relationship are strong. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and sharing in activities with friends. My relationship with Christ is very important to me and I hope to share that with a wife one day. The woman that I'd like to be with I hope will have similar interests as well as kindness, honesty, and a good sense of humor. I don't look for perfection in anyone as I lack that myself. Being physically active and in shape are things important to me. As for those who may question that why, as someone who professes the seriousness of their faith would post pics without a shirt on...please don't be quick to judge...ask first. One is a very special moment in my life and the other gives insight into my sense of humor as well as to a degree of committment I put into my health. Either way...I wish you the best in your search!

Meet single man from United States. Not a Nice Guy: LoL
Nice Guys exude insecurity -- a big red target for the predators of the world. There are women out there who are "users" -- just looking for a sucker to take advantage of. Users home-in on "Nice Guys", stroke their egos, take them for a ride, add a notch to their belts, and move on. It's no wonder so many Nice Guys complain about women being horrible, when the so often the kind of woman that gets attracted to them is the lowest form of life...
Self-confident, caring, decent-hearted women find "Nice Guys" to be too clingy, self-abasing, and insecure.
Nice Guys go overboard. They bring roses to a "lets get together for coffee" date. They try to buy her affections with presents and fancy things. They think they know about romance, but their timing is all wrong, and they either come-on too strong, too hard and too fast, OR, they are so shy and unassertive, that they hang around pretending to be "friends", in the hope that somehow, someway, they will get the courage up to ask her out for a "date".
They are so desperate to please that they put aside their own needs, and place the object of their desire on a pedestal. Instead of appreciating her, they worship her. We are only human, and pedestals are narrow, confining places to be -- not to mention the fact that we tend to fall off of them.
They cling to her, and want to be "one" with her for fear that if she is out of sight, she may disappear or become attracted to someone else. A Nice Guy often has trouble with emotional intimacy, because he believes that if she learns about the REAL person inside, she will no longer love him.
Nice Guys are always asking HER to make the decisions. They think it's being equitable, but it puts an unfair burden of responsibility on her, and gives him the opportunity to blame her if the decision was an unwise one.
Nice Guys rarely speak up when something bothers them, and rarely state clearly what it is they want, need and expect. They fear that any kind of conflict might spell the end of the relationship. Instead of comprimising and negotiating, they repeatedly "give in". When she doesn't appreciate their sacrifice, they will complain that, "Everything I did, I did for her.", as if this somehow elevates them to the status of martyrs. A woman doesn't want a martyr. She wants an equal, caring, adult partner.
Nice Guys think that they will never meet anyone as special as she is. They use their adoration as a foundation for claiming that "no one will ever love her as much as I do." Instead of being a profound statement of their devotion, this is a subtle, but nasty insult. It is akin to saying to her: "You are a difficult person, and only *I* can ever truly love you, so be thankful I'm here."
The nice guy -needs- to believe that he is the best person for the object of his desires, because otherwise his insecurities will overrun him with jealousies and fear. The truth of the matter is that there are many people out there who can be a good match for her. We rarely stop loving people we truly care about. Even if we no longer continue the relationship, the feelings will continue... But love isn't mutually exclusive. We can (and do) love many people in our lives, and romantic love is really no different. Though he may love her immensely, there will likely be other people who have loved her just as much in her past, and will love her just as much in the future. The irony of it all is: "Who would want to go out with someone who was inherintly unlovable anyways?"
More than loving the woman in his life, a Nice Guy NEEDS her. "She is my Life, my only source of happiness..." YECH! What kind of a burden is that to place on her? That SHE has to be responsible for YOUR happiness? Get a grip!

Date someone special from Colorado Springs, United States. I am originally from Panama. I am a very kind, honest, and warm person. I like to spend quality time with someone I care about, and this is even better if the one I am with will appreciate this kind of thing. I am a very loyal person, I love music, art, and basically just having fun and enjoying the ride of life. I consider myself to be a very upfront person, I tell people straight out what I think. I don't believe in deception or dishonesty. I believe this is of the utmost importance. Without honesty and openness how can any relationship ever stand the test of time. If you truly love someone, then there should be nothing you need to hide from them. I've learned along time ago that the most important thing, is that there is beauty inside the person I am with. If I don't see something attractive inside this person, then the relationship will never last for me. I am pretty comfortable with who and how I am. Although I don't consider myself perfect I do have my flaws. But it is the willingness to change and grow for myself and for the person I am with, that will only add to the happiness of a long lasting relationship. I consider myself to be very intelligent in a mature since. I love to have fun, and a lot of times there is a kid inside that just pops out of me from time to time. But I do know however when it is time to be an adult. Well that pretty much sums up the basics about myself.
Movies I like: I like A lot of different types of movies I like Sci Fi movies , my favorite movie is probably Lord of the Rings the trilogy. I love Comedies, Historical, Romantic, Animated, Drama, really whatever is a good movie with a good story or one that has an actor/actress that I like.
Television I like: As far as tv shows go I like House, Heroes, Stargate (all), Sopranos, True Blood, South Park, Family Guy, Futurama, Battlestar Galactica, Simpsons, Seinfeld, Star Trek(all), The Fringe, Caprica, Merlin, Legend Of The Seeker, Nurse Jackie, V, Warehouse 13 my top favorite would have to be True Blood, Fringe, Spartacus, Walking Dead and House. I am not a super Trekkie that has to walk around with a Klingon forehead on or anything like that. I just like all the Star Trek series I really enjoy the stories very much because they teach us many lessons of the human condition and the trials we all go through. Usually any shows that are funny or that have meaningful stories are the ones that I enjoy watching.
I am looking for someone who is fun and yet adventurous. Someone who isn't afraid of trying new things. Someone who definitely has an open mind. Someone who loves music as much as I do. Someone who is a kid at heart and does not take life so seriously all the time. Someone who knows and realizes that the one constant truth that people need strive for is to just enjoy life as it comes, and who enjoys being with somebody they care about and who cares about them. And finally someone who is definitely honest and open with everything and is not bothered by what people think except for the person they are with.
If I could give some advice to anybody looking for a truly meaningful relationship. I think the best thing I could say is that, for anybody that has ever had a bad relationship or one that did not go so well or end well for whatever reason. You should first make it a priority to get to know yourself, be comfortable and happy with who and how you are, and for whatever reasons your previous relationships did not work out. You have to put that behind you, don't hold any grudges or store hate inside, because it is not fair for you or the new person in your life. You just have to look ahead and know that the future is not written yet, and that you determine whether your future is dark or bright. And just how easy do you think it will be to find somebody, who truly will make you happy if you can't see them in the dark.

Meet single man from Colorado Springs, United States. Going to go minimalist here.
I mean, like, super-minimalist.
I'll be sooo mysterious, you'll be all like "huh, that dude is mysterious ... I need to know more."
Think of it. A big white, empty expanse right here that says "he could be ANYONE." And then your mind starts churning, filling that empty void with your. perfect. man. Your mind wanders and you begin to imagine the types of things I MIGHT have typed ...
Mr. Buff Manly enjoys:
* Picking up the check for ladies who REALLY know how to chow down
* Flexing
* Lavishing jewelry on recent acquantances
* Romance novel book club
* Shiny golden underwear
Pet Peeves:
* Women who are *too* good looking (am I right?)
Flashing back to reality, you realize this could be it. "Prepare to be dazzled, Mr. Manly," you mutter beneath a smirk. Fingers approach the keyboard ... then hesitate. A-ha! The perfect opener comes to mind. The tik-a-tik of your keyboard fills the air -- punctuated by giggles (and was that a snort?)....
Anyway, what was I saying? Oh, yeah. Minimalist!

Date a soulmate from Colorado, United States. Non traditional, unconventional, these are words that I would use to describe myself. These qualities also make it hard for me to find someone to connect with but I know they're out there.
Because of my profession I don't get "normal" days off. This means that often I can spend weekdays enjoying my favorite outdoor hobbies like hiking or snowboarding. I also have the privilege of making my own schedule so this is not entirely by accident.
My musical interests include an indy, heavy, roots and avant garde spirit. I can enjoy just about any good music of any genre at Red Rocks of course.
I've only had a few real relationships in my life and I really haven't dated all that much. At this point I'd love to find a great relationship and that is why I'm here. Even though I say I'm unconventional, I'm still kind of old fashioned. I believe in chivalry with modern sensibilities. I hope that some of what I've written make sense and that you find it interesting.

Meet a man from Colorado, United States. To start - and as to why there are no pictures of my face here, I'm quite sure that some of you can relate to this and are probably doing this yourself but for those who aren't, working in a "High Profile / Vis" position comes with some down sides. The biggest of those being the fact that everyone seems to want to be "in the know" about your personal business. The last thing I want is for my employees, co-workers, or clients e-mailing me here. So, having said that, if you're interested and would like to see more photos, please just ask and I'll be happy to provide whatever kind you'd like (within reason of course! : )).
OK, about me................Besides all of the stuff I've already checked, I'd just like to see who's out there for now.............more on all of this "explaining myself and my ideal match" later. I've tried online dating in the past and if nothing else, I've learned that it's VERY important to be inquisitive and curious but not go overboard with the info you put in your profile. People tend to model themselves around your profile and it takes forever to get to know them for who they really are (yes, that happens - A Lot).
