-I have an exciting, stressful job most people couldn't imagine doing.
-I am artistic and I have a need to create things. To me, there's nothing quite as satisfying. This manifests itself in several forms.
-I am, in fact, taller than you when you're wearing heels. I had no idea how important this is to you ladies until I joined this site.
-I am sometimes wrong. So are you. But I'm not stubborn. Let's discuss our disagreements like adults.
-I have grown up more in the past year than any other two in my life. Sometimes disappointment is a blessing.
-I am obsessed with music. I play guitar, I write songs, and I want to be in a band again.
-As of April 2013, I am in training for the Detroit Marathon. Anyone I date will need to understand the demands that places on my time. If you're a runner, all the better!
-I'm not one of the self-proclaimed "nice guys", i.e. I don't think you owe me sex after 3-5 dates just because I've behaved myself to that point. If you're not EXCITED about me, I'd prefer you keep your clothes on.
-I do, however, think of myself as a quality guy because doing the right thing is important to me, and that's no bull.
-I have a dry, sarcastic sense of humor. I think I'm funny. I get some laughs at work.
-I once drove to Pittsburgh to see a band I could have seen locally that same weekend. Road trips rule.
-I'm a boob man. Don't kill the messenger, it's just how I was programmed.
-I would rather pay more at a small, local business than save money at a giant national chain. I would simply rather not be part of the problem we all perpetuate each time we step inside a Wal-Mart.
-I am not a morning person. Don't take it personally.
-I don't sit and wait for a better parking spot to open up. I walk.
-I'm not rich, I'm not poor, and I don't obsess over money. I save up for what I want. Credit cards are a last resort.
-I don't necessarily think the book was better than the movie. But it usually is.
-I won spelling bees as a kid. I apologize in advance for correcting you.
-I cook quite well. It's fun.
-Yes, I play fantasy football. You have your guilty pleasures, too.
-I once bought a co-worker an apology card because I boxed-in her car in the parking garage.
-I am turned off by organized religion, but I don't mind spirituality. (If you're looking for a man who's "dedicated his life to Jesus", that's not me, but I wish you the best.)
-I am terrible at lying. Even worse than Walter White. If you get the reference, we should be friends.
-I don't do drama. At all. Ever.
-I pride myself on being a good listener. However...
-...I didn't catch much of what you said during the Michigan game.
-I don't need to constantly be told how great I am. My family has that covered. Help me become a better man.
-I am snobby about two things: grammar and music.
-I have zero expectations for this. I will treat any successful relationship born here as a happy accident.
