How would you describe yourself?
I enjoy weightlifting, reading, biking, yoga, cooking, foreign cultures, hiking, nutrition, motorcycles, gardening, pool, volunteering, movies, and music (except most country and a LOT of rap)... I used to be a book worm but came to the dim realization that having more knowledge tends to breed apathy and cynicism; besides, life lived from books is really dull. Since then, I have done a lot of catching up on life's experiences... Some people say TOO much, but that is another story...*S* I am very easy-going, reliable, honest, humorous, faithful, and tend to play devil's advocate on occasion. Lately, I spend only 3-4 hrs/week in the gym. In the past, it was typical to spend 10-16 hrs/wk in the pursuit of powerlifting--so anyone into the gym and fitness is preferred. Actually, dropping weight bums me out, but I am currently cutting weight and should reach that goal by April 2022. I recently relocated here from the midwest (by way of South Carolina) and am looking to explore the area. I am not really into watching sports; have no desire to live in a big house; do not need to compensate by driving an expensive car or buying the newest gadget; having more money does not make me happier; and, I believe that you should be faithful to one person (besides, it would be too much work to date more than one person *kidding*). I would rather go to a museum, art gallery, opera, symphony, or just sit in a coffee shop and talk. And, to clear up two things: one, I do not like musicals; and, two, I'm not gay.:) I live very simply and only need a faithful partner I can trust, respect, cherish, and provide for. I have worked a multitude of jobs... For the experiences, not the money... Bouncer, short order cook, farm laborer, personal trainer, et cetera, but my current job entails programming. Money is not very important to me as long as I can pay the bills and still save for retirement. I do not really identify with any political party as I prefer to think for myself, but if forced to choose I would be something along the lines of conservative and libertarian.
One of my biggest accomplishments was coming to the realization that what I want is to find someone in life that I am compatible with and someone that I can make truly happy (probably why I gravitate towards women who have trust issues towards men)... It used to feel like not being alone was the most important thing. However, I have noticed that just because you are physically capable of holding someone in your arms, it does not mean that you are still not alone. Another was the first time that I benched/squatted in a powerlifting competition. It may seem like an ego thing, but this is very important to me because I was stuck in a wheelchair for a couple of months and hated the feeling of helplessness and depending upon someone for even the most basic of needs... I lived with my grandmother during that time and really enjoyed it (at first). Ever since I have been spending hours in the gym each week. I want to be totally truthful and upfront so that I can find someone who is truly compatible (even as a platonic friend), it would be nice to find someone who can put the letters dmsb together to form a meaningful acronym... Yet still has a strong moral compass as well as moral and ethical values (to make up for my lack of them).*kidding* Although I could see someone describing me as kinky, my values are probably similar to that of a 1950's lifestyle... Even though I like women who are sometimes submissive, that does not mean I do not like women who are strong and resolute, yet still like to be taken care of... Basically someone more like a partner than a slave. I am also partial to accents. But most women seem to have a slight accent (compared to my home state; so yes, I have a slight accent if you know what to listen for).*S* Witty banter aside, there is a part of me that may be confusing, and a little on the dark and mysterious side, so take it or leave it.
If all that didn’t suck you in….I’ll just say that I am aggressively playful AND playfully aggressive. 🫠
I am looking for
First off, please write a little about yourself! You may just like pictures, but I think you're reading this to see my character and substance...so I want to see yours as well. :) As for what I am looking for.... She must be honest, faithful, and share similar values on a majority of the things that doom relationships: money, religion, kids, in-laws/family, politics, and sex. I would like to find someone who has a technical/professional background or basic career aspirations/life plans... And someone who shares one or two of my hobbies as well as someone who goes to the gym or is into any other kind of physical fitness. As far as personality, I like many different types... From dark, brooding goths to happy, shiny outdoor enthusiasts. The metaphysical connection is very important to me, but it would take too long to describe everything. Succinctly put, do you know those 80-year-old couples that still hold hands in public?... That's what I want. Physically, I have a history of gravitating towards women who are about half my size and... For lack of a better word... Spunky. I prefer diminutive, petite women; but, it is merely a preference. This may sound odd, but I am typically drawn to women who need reassurance about how beautiful they are, it gives me a warm feeling inside to know that my woman craves my attention. But, honestly, there is nothing cuter than a shy woman with at least a little self-confidence (or at least one who is not overly arrogant and stuck on her physique).
*UNLESS only interested in penpals, it is highly unlikely I will be interested in anyone outside North America or Europe…maybe some parts of South America or Asia.*
