Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

I'm here so I can meet someone. To be honest, I have to admit that I'm inexperienced when it comes to dating, which means I'm here for mostly short-term dating. However, I am open to the idea of a long-term relationship. It'll happen if it happens.

I'm a college student majoring in philosophy. I love to read about the subject and it is an all-consuming interest of mine, although there are times when I have to take a break from it and find other things to do.

I like movies and music, and I have good taste. I've taken guitar lessons, but I haven't made time to practice .

I have a sick sense of humor. I laugh at things I shouldn't laugh at, so if you're overly sensitive, I may not be your type.

In find many of the questions and tests useful, but I don't rely on them implicitly.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

My life is a routine these days. I'm originally from Maryland, but have been living in Greensboro for almost 8 years. I should graduate with a BA in English next semester and then a BA in Philosophy the semester after that. I plan on going to graduate school for philosophy and hope to someday have a job as a tenured professor. It's highly possible that I may not reach that goal, but I have no idea what I'll do if I fail to reach it.

My professors tell me I'm good at philosophy, so I'll take their word for it.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

Probably the glasses. If I had a decent income, I would wear contacts instead and if I had a nice surplus, I would get laser eye surgery.

I'm really thin. I want to gain weight and that's a really hard goal to reach. I've tired it before and I can't get over how much food I had to eat or how expensive it was.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit

Oxygen, water, food, shelter, my healthy hygiene habits, and a sharp stick for bear attacks.

Seriously, I can't think of anything.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

My mind wanders a lot, often daydreaming about philosophy, the future, success, escapist fantasies, worst case scenarios, a romantic relationship, and yes, sex. I'm often preoccupied with my own thoughts, even to the point of absent-mindedness. This might not be a good thing.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Usually at home, but I'd like to change that.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

If I admit it, it wouldn't be private, now would it? There are a couple of private things that I might disclose, if asked.

You should message me if Propose an edit

- If you're willing to take the time to write a descent message. This means some concern for spelling and grammar.

- If you're interested in getting to know me. I'm not interested in just saying "Hi" or talking about the weather. I can do that offline.

- If you're willing to tell me something about yourself. If you're willing to do that, I will reciprocate.

- Note that I may not respond if I'm not interested in you. That may sound harsh, but it's the truth.
