During a first call, someone asked what makes me 'worthy'. Right then I knew we weren't go to work out. Make no mistake, I am definitely 'worthy'. But there is no way she could learn that on a phone call. I am not the classic movie leading man - too short and not a multi-millionaire. She was looking for Mr. Perfect, and I am not him. I am however AMAZING.

If you think you know exactly what you want from his hair to his shoes, look elsewhere. If you want someone better than you dreamed possible, take a look at me. I may not be what you think you are looking for, but I will make the right woman incredibly happy. I am loyal, honest, intelligent and creative

Most often you will find me reading, dancing tango, or trying something new and unusual. Among other things, I have taken upholstery, trampoline, roman sword martial arts, metal etching, and Aerial Acrobatics classes.

I am a great combination of assertiveness and caring. Most importantly, I have a great "sense of silly" and enjoy goofing around.

I am:
A good communicator. I listen well and will honestly tell you what I think
An intelligent, creative, and adventurous person.
Pretty easy going about most things (but injustice gets me riled up.)
Not too proud to date someone taller than me, smarter than me, richer than me, funnier than me, etc.
Ready and willing for a long term relationship.
Fine with a woman that writes first.

I am a computer programmer for a law firm. When not working I sleep, eat, dance, ski, travel, read, write, exercise, and go on adventures.

Tango dancing, reading, writing, and finding new and unusual things to try.

My intelligence. Strange because most of the time I think I'm more creative than intelligent. It might be my tendency to bring up unusual facts (Like talking about the Japanese flying squid.)

Favorite living authors are Louis McMaster Bujold and Steven C. Gould. (Note, not Stephen Jay Gould - different author). My favorites movies are "Bringing Up Baby", "Secretary", "Say Anything" and "To Catch a Thief". My preferred music is Beatles or Tango.

Favorite TV show: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Mythbusters, Portlandia

Music: Sephira, Mansell, Beatles, Immediate Music

Allie Brosh is a very funny young woman.

A new book to read
Tango music
Partner to dance with
Love
Something new and interesting to explore
Someone to talk to.

Why everyone on dating websites lists "travel" as an interest. Is there a huge, untapped travel desire swelling the ranks of the single population of America? Do people hate their home towns?

with friends. Perhaps at a movie, sometimes dancing, sometimes eating dinner.

I am very honest and nice. I'm always surprised at how many women dislike those two qualities.

In addition, I am definitely a geek and definitely kinky. I'm not into pain or other extreme 'edge' stuff, but if you only like vanilla sex, then chances are I am not for you. But my sex life is not the focus of my life and does not define me.

You are looking for a smart, interesting man to explore the world with you. Dancers, readers, and people with unusual hobbies get bonus points.
