My self-summary
Since I'm off the market, I've decided to use my self summary to assist some of you ladies. Think of me like a big brother helping out. These are things that your average guy will think and it doesn't make it true, but perception is often reality!

Pictures (only if you have more than 2 pictures)
1. If you're not smiling in any of your pictures guys will think that you're evil and bitchy.
2. If you're alone in every single picture, 1) you're not fun 2) you don't have friends and you will be clingy. (PS - It's ok to blur or crop out the other people, as long as it's obvious you're not alone)
3. If you have the exact same pose in every single picture no matter where it's taken, then you're just putting on a show and you're fake.
4. Don't load bad pictures of yourself on here. Remember that this is not facebook, YOU chose to load YOUR pictures.
5. If your pictures come from a camera where the date is shown, make sure none of your pics are more than 2 years old or people will assume you're hiding something.
6. If you have pictures showing off your cleavage, you're asking guys to look at it and they might comment on it. Remember #4.
7. And do NOT have pictures of your kids with you on an adult dating website!!

Profile
1. Never mention that you've made some mistakes in the past or that you're healing now and ready to get back out there... all you're doing is letting the predators know that you're the slow gazelle and they should run you for a little bit and then pounce.
2. Don't say two different things in different spots in your profile: red flag if you say you're fun and adventurous but then list your hobbies as reading and watching movies.
3. If you put a warning in your profile that you're not on here just for sex then that means you have had sex on the first date but he never called you back. You're telling people they have a shot at nailing you on the first date.
4. If your requirements for a guy are no drugs, most of his teeth and not living with his parents then you're shooting too low. Feel free to list some dealbreakers but jeez, aim a bit higher.
5. If any of your paragraphs are more than 5 sentences long, guys aren't going to read them.
6. Don't be subtle. Guys are visual and stupid. Be extremely clear in everything you say.
7. Don't say you're looking to be friends first when you're really looking for a boyfriend. You're asking guys to lie to you and pretend to be your friend so they can try to get in your pants. The guys that you want to attract will skip you since they think you're only looking to be friends (see #6).
What I’m doing with my life
I'm doing a lot of different things but one big focus I have is continuing to train for the other Tough Mudder races I've signed up for this year. I'm not into an extreme lifestyle but I really enjoy these Tough Mudders!
I’m really good at
I'm great with kids. I can relate to them in a way that makes them like me... from little kids to teenagers.
The first things people usually notice about me
People always notice that I'm smiling, mainly because I do it all the time. The world is my playground and it makes me laugh :)
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Most Stephen King, Battlefield Earth, any poem by Robert Frost, anything by R.A. Salvatore, Have a Nice Day, The Drawing of the Three, The Legend of Huma, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Jason Cosmo, Homeland, The Host & the Harry Potter series. I don't read as often as I used to but I still read quite a bit.

I like all horror movies (but not the torture ones). Actually I like just about every type of movie. Some favs: Aliens, The Princess Bride, Dumb&Dumber, Ghostbusters, Edward Scissorhands, Newsies, The Good Son, Flashdance, The Dark Knight, Shaun of the Dead, Nightmare Before Christmas, Christmas Vacation, Fight Club, Bandslam & the Green Mile to name a few!

I also tend to like some not so typical movies but I don't make other people watch them :) UHF, Moonwalker, Dead Alive, Dark City, Donnie Darko, Sleep Dealer, Special (Rx)

I really don't watch TV on a regular basis, but I do enjoy it. My favorite is Antiques Roadshow. Seriously.

I love all music (especially 80s music) but depends on my mood for what I want to listen to... I honestly like just about everything. My absolute favorite song ever is Red Red Wine by UB40, I always crank the volume up when it comes on the radio!

Chocolate!!! Addicted and ok with it
The six things I could never do without
Laughter, money, family, friends, sex, learning (about people, about things)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Why some people don't have passion in their life. Passion for other people, an activity, music, whatever!! Passion makes life fun...
On a typical Friday night I am
Chillin' out maxin', relaxin' all cool - come on you know the words :)
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I'm married ... gasp!! So why am I on a dating site? To find a girlfriend of course! Just kidding. I've been a member of this site for around 8 years & back in the day it wasn't really a dating site. I like the tests, random conversations and people watching.

Also, in college I was tricked by my best friend into showing up to her bachelorette party. I was the only guy there but decided to stay since I wanted to be a good friend (and she went to a lot of trouble to get me there!!). I ended up learning more about women that night than the rest of my life combined!
I’m looking for
  • Straight girls only
  • Ages 25–55
  • Near me
  • For new friends, long-distance penpals
You should message me if
You want to say hi. Or if you have something to say that's more in depth than hi. Or if you want to comment on my photos! Don't worry I'm uber friendly. Ha ha ha... uber
