Hi guys! My name is Derek and I live in Phoenix. I'm trying this thing out because I wanted to see if its easier to shift through all of the fake people I tend to meet daily. I love honesty I need to know that no matter what happens that I can trust my friends. I love watching sports and I love the history channel I know..I know.. what a dork. But it makes me happy so now what. I'm not much of a party person but when I do party. I party!!! I like to just hang out with friends and listen to music. My perfect night is getting home and making popcorn (favorite food) and watching the Suns play. I have a daughter who is the love of my life so I'm looking for someone who won't mind being a really close second in my heart. I want a road dog. Someone who I know has my back when I get in crazy sad moods like we all do. I need her to rub my back and say baby it will be ok.

I'm trying to get ready to go to the Navy. I'm excited for it and need to get into better shape. I never knew that applying for the Navy involves so much paperwork. I want to get into the medical field so when I come out I don't have to worry about fighting for a job.

I'm really good at making people laugh.

Oh!!! making popcorn (no microwaves)

Washing my face

Singing in the shower

Showing love

Being a friend

I'm not the typical black guy. I actually don't want to be a thug, a rapper, a producer, or own a record label.

My favorite book....Hmmmmm........ Ok my favorite Movie? Harold and Kummar Go to White Castle. Love that movie. I love all music...seriously! I listen to eveything from Japanese pop to local indie music. Don't judge!!!

1. Popcorn
2. Tacos ;P
3. My guitar
4. Cell phone
5. Love
6. Sex.... Its slowly changing into something I guess I can live without. Its been awhile :/

How I can make my daughter proud of me and make her life better than mine.

I'm kicking it with a couple of friends playing guitar or working out.

That I'm still eating peanut butter. Fuck recalls!! How can you recall something so wonderful. Really?!?!? With the economy this bad we're even gonna cut Mr. Peanut's job? Planter's should have a union!!!

If you're looking for a friend that could turn into something more.
