While the rest of my profile may seem to suggest that I am completely serious and dedicate no time or effort to having fun/laughing, this is far from the case. I am actually quite vibrant and have a bit of an off-the-wall sense of humor, though I am shy when I first get to know someone so it doesn't really come out until I am comfortable with them. I can be a bit of a nerd at times and can be a bit hyper and childish at times, but I am also very serious and mature when I need to be. I am intelligent and enjoy holding frequent intellectual conversations, especially on the topics of politics and philosophy. While I am an atheist, I do not have any problems with religious people as long as they are open minded to my beliefs. I do not force my beliefs on others and appreciate when they have the same respect for mine.

I am a football player and a coach. I coach strength and conditioning at the local high school as a certified personal trainer. I am also an underground hip hop artist and a poet, and I am currently writing a book on my personal economic theories and political ideologies.

playing football, strength training, emceeing (rapping), and writing (poetry, songs, articles, etc.).

I would hope the first thing someone would notice about me is that I am genuine. I don't like to try to be something that I am not and I convey that quality quite expressly.

My weight set (or a gym membership), something to write on/with, and a computer with the internet (for reading/studying). Everything else is superfluous.

Politics/economics, athletic training, body building, hip hop music, song concepts, etc.

Sitting at home reading/writing or working out. I do go out to the occasional party, however, I do not drink or do any drugs (i am straight edge though i have no problem with people who drink/smoke/smoke weed) so I don't go all that often.

I am a very shy person when it comes to relationships, but when I get to know someone and we have established that we are interested in each other, I usually come out of my shell. I am usually not the type to initiate contact with a girl. As a matter of fact, I have never approached or persisted with a girl that I ended up being in a relationship with. Every girl that I have dated has approached me first and pursued me. It is a trait that I am actively trying to overcome.

You are between the ages of 18 and 27 (preferably between 18 and 23), are athletic or at least enjoy working out/staying in shape, preferably non-white, specifically Hispanic/Latina, are looking for a relationship of some sort, whether a serious relationship, casual relationship, or simply a fling (though preferably a long term relationship), don't play games, are not materialistic, and share some similar interests with me.

Though I am white I don't much care for white girls. I am most interested in Hispanic women, though I find that the girls I am most physically attracted to are those that are mixed with white or look as though they are. However, I am open minded to anyone as long as there is a connection between us.
