I am Passionate, Dedicated, and Affectionate.

My Self-Summary

Hi I am Josh and I am pretty freakin awesome. I am currently living in Madison, WI but moving to the Twin Cities within a few months to go back to school and can't wait. Here to meet new people that I normally would not meet in "the real world" and maybe get a head start on making some friends in Minnesota.

Right now I find myself wanting to expand my network of friends. The people in my life are great, I just want to make some new experiences. So, though I would love to meet the perfect woman with whom I could settle down with and live happily ever after, I am not holding my breath and welcome any new friends.

I have also discovered about myself that I am a very monogamistic person. I see the value in committed relationships and don't want to find myself with someone who doesn't also appreciate and respect that bond. I think that mainly, I find that it protects myself. I am not going to stop being an emotionally and mentally sharing person. It is who I am.

I tend to be more of a listener than a talker, but love to have great conversations and make life a better place for those around me.

I realized that nowhere in here are we asked to write what we hope to find. I guess that the expectation must be to showcase ourselves and let the "robot" do the finding. Though, to be honest, this sucks. I am not sure if online dating is going to work for me because I am not the kind of person who sends an inconspicuous email only to patiently wait for a response, maybe. If I want something in life, I go out and get it! Why should I wait around? Anyways, If I have taken the time to write to you, it is because I truly wanted to. Thus far I have looked at over 300 profiles and only messaged 6 people. Now, if this were the real world and I were to walk up to 6 different people and introduce myself, I would have 6 conversations, minimum. So, I am serious about this and I hope I am not the only one.

What I’m doing with my life

Going back to school this spring to study Neuroscience, finally, and can't wait to get going on my life again. I have been working a boring 8-5 job that pays the bills so that I can pay for school and someday go to med school.

I exercise everyday and love to hang out and enjoy the beer and conversation that comes with good friends, though I only ever have one or two drinks. I hope to pursue a career in emergency medicine/surgery in some capacity. M.D. would be awesome, but I am not ruling anything out.

I’m really good at

Being awsome and living the dream. Composing music, though I haven't had time to do this in over a year. Listening and empathizing with people's emotions, but not necessarily try to "fix" the problem. I am really good at simply being there. Hugs and cuddling.

The first things people usually notice about me

I have no idea. I should really ask someone what they thought the first time they met me. I hope it would be good.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I love to read. I read mostly non-fiction about whatever is interesting that day at the book store. I have been reading a lot about life as a medical resident and military medicine.

I listen to all music. I am always looking for new and interesting music to listen to and see live. On my MP3 player I have everything from Classical to Jazz to Gangsta Rap to Country to Funk to Punk to Reggae.

I love Italian food and Chocolate Cake. Also, I would love to try as many restaurants and I can.

The six things I could never do without

Meaning
Love/Friendship/Intimacy/Sex/Romance... that whole bit.
Animals
Good Food
Music
Variety

This is more of a list of the six most important things to me or the six things I would want most. I think it means more than to write the air/food/water bit. At least when describing me.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Where the hell my life is going. Well really how I am going to get where I want to go. I have built up some roadblocks by making stupid decisions in my past. So, now I think about how to build the necessary path to get around the roadblock or even go through it.

On a typical Friday night I am

Enjoying not working. Maybe seeing a show, hanging and chatting, movie, food, beer. Who knows, we’ll see…

That or staying home and watching a movie and sitting on the couch with my sweet.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I lift and seperate my brow into two distinct brows.

You should message me if

You enjoy meeting cool new people.
Want a real relationship.
I asked you to.
