I'm 37, 6-3, 185 and gaining. Suck it salads! No... wait... kidding. You still there? You should know I'm lawfully skilled, medically educated, financially secure, and I currently live on the Peninsula, 15 minutes south of SF. However, I do work in SF. I'll explain in just a minute, let me warm you up some more. I enjoy a good comedy club (have done a few comedy shows of my own, call it a hobby), sports (obviously, I am a man you'll find out...#3RDDATERULE ). I'm athletic, played minor league baseball, and I am also a big hockey fan. I love to play golf, a lot. Perhaps you play? Do you even have a hint of athleticism? Please do, however not a demand as you (they) seem to be in short supply. Be smart so I don't have to explain "supply and demand" to you. I am a firm believer of getting out of life what you put into it. You'll always be placed first, I'd hope you do the same for me? Open to compromise as well. Except for the remote. The noise cancelling headphones are negotiable if you need to talk. I suppose I could lend "an" ear. I also love to cook, a bit of a neat freak, and I do all my own laundry. I back into parking spaces and laugh when others try to back out into traffic. By others, you know who you are - you get honked at constantly! May I suggest noise cancelling headphones and a taxi? I'm looking for someone who knows just what they want and has the confidence to go after it. That's exactly who I am and don't stray far from that path often. Unless, there's something you want to do off the path, over there...in them there bushes?

Currently I'm in medicine and have been involved with this field for the last 13 years. The last 7 years in imaging, specifically in Radiology - both in a hospital setting and in our out-patient clinics. I'm quite happy in my field. My credentials allow for me to work worldwide so going forward, I am open to relocation if there's a better life for us out there? As for now, I'm grounded to the Bay Area.

Well, hopefully by now you've picked up on my sarcasm. I aim to get you to crack a smile, laugh out loud, or pee your pants. But I know when to be a man, can carry an adult conversation (ie: political, global, candid, or just plane rude). Just forewarn me if you've got a full bladder I guess. What I'm trying to establish here is that I can turn it off if need be, but most of the time the quick-witted-ness is ever present. I look forward to your ambivalent glares from across the table when we are at dinner with your parents. Did I mention you look great tonight?

...is that I have a hard shell. Not unpenetrateable though. I have a very small circle of friends and family. The storms that I have passed through over my some wise others not so wise years have left me with a few walls intact. I've just reinforced the remaining walls to make a smaller fortress, but there's plenty of room inside. I'm open to an addition. Happy to discuss further if I've gained your favor?

Really? Too many to list. I'll defer this category to our potential first date / conversation...that's when we'll see if we are in advanced chemistry class!

Food, sex...let me think of the others

...two of the six things I could never do without.

Down to go out but won't fight you if you want to stay in. But generally, live music, movies, dressed up dinners, comedy shows, galleries, romantic road trips accompanied by horizontal team building exercises are all on the agenda. Choose your own adventure.

On the internet? This one falls under the category of trick questions. I'm not falling for that one, but I maybe one day I could fall for you?

...you are living a parallel life. I trust that you'd be employed and well on your way in life. We don't have to connect on everything, in fact, it's encouraged we don't. I feel it's best we have some different things to do with the other friends we share. Be quick-witted yourself, but mind the gray area, neither of us are trying to steal the show. We're a two person show anyway, we feed off one another. From the pet department: I prefer dogs to cats (allergy). And by dogs, I mean medium to large sized dogs. Not those little adorable (your words not mine) creatures that are an accessory. I'd rather you hold on to me. But you don't need to keep me on a short leash mind you.

I do carry one other disclaimer that drains my dating pool. While I will often spend time with nieces and nephews, I feel that where I want to go in life, how I want to get there, will be obtained without the need or desire for starting my own family. I'd hope you not already have children or desire to have them one day. It's just not for me. Kids are great in small doses, but I've come to realize I enjoy travel, spontaneity, et al...without the full-time commitment of raising a family. But I will always be by your side - even if you act like a child at times.
