I am 26 and I am a combat vet that fought in afghanistan 4 years ago. Ever since I got back, I have been looking around to see what is out there that I have missed out when I was gone. I managed to see it all but I am missing one thing that up to now I have not been able to obtain, which is a lady that will stand by my side. I am very laid back and smart and likes to go out and have a good time when the time and day permits. I am very upbeat sometimes and would like to find the same.

Update: Its seems like as if I am having a hard time having people understand my current situation. Since I am a combat vet, I have been recently diagnosed with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). At this time, I just want to say that things are a lil rough with my life at the moment but I am managing none of the less. If you chat with me at some point and you think my life is unstable, please understand that I have this disorder and it would seem that way but its not what you really think. I really want to find someone out there that can understand that and maybe one day be the one that can make me smile and accept me for who I am. Im not saying that I need it, just that it would be nice for a change to be happy with life in general with someone special that is that understanding. Also, to wrap this up, I just want to note that I haven't had many relationships and I am not good with making any moves or anything that can get a lady's attention. I am really trying my best and I hope you all can understand this. Well that about it for now, thanks for stopping by!!!

new update as of 7/22/09: this is basically what kind of lady I am looking for, It starts with the eyes. She's gotta have those kind of eyes that can look right through the bullshit, to the good in someone. 20% angel, 80% devil. Down to earth. Ain't afraid to get a little engine grease under her fingernails.

At the moment, since we in the United States face a very serious time with the economy, I am working but not exactly working where I want to be. I get paid ok but I wish there was better at the moment.

Working on cars, especially on imports. I grew up around it and its been in my blood ever since.

is when I tend to be shy at times. Not socially, but I tend to be a little bit shy when it comes down to getting to know a lady. But it can be overcome, can it? lol

for movies, I love hitman, mostly action movies that have a twist to the storyline that can make it a good movie. For food, I love eating a good cuban meal when I get the chance.

Hot french vanilla cappucino, my Toyota Supra, my favorite car magazines, hot showers and I don't know what else to describe at the moment.

performance vehicles, but that can change if I find someone.

at a local race hangout with my friends or at a good bar enjoying the social life.

you like what you read or just looking to find a new friend that would not let you down. Or if anything, you are looking for knight in shining armor.
