Hi. I'm a single male. age 52, but I look younger than my age. It used to be a problem for me geing to a bar and getting carded when i was in my 30's. I'm 6'4 tall, thin build. Never married, no kids. I like movies, marvel comics, History channel, gardening. I also happen to be a published science fiction writer with two novels. McKenzie Files. And Assassination Anxiety. McKenzie Files Book 2. I have a good sense of humor, compassionate, patient. And speaking of patient, so it costs $5 to upgrade my membership here so that I can send messages. $5 is a hell of a lot of money to spend if nobody is going to contact me. So come on. Give me a reason to spend my money here and make it worth my while.
I am just a guy looking for a real relationship. I'm not expecting much from online dating sites, but I'm willing to give them a try. I'm a little shy around people at first, but I'm easy to talk to once you get to know me a little. I have a steady job, go to school (university of Iowa), and play various games (console, PC, board, table-top, word, children's trading cards, and mind) all the time and I always enjoy a challenge.
I don't know what else is necessary to put here. Should I feel like adding more information, I'll do so in the future. Otherwise, I look forward to some discussion with people interested in a real relationship.
I'm Staci. I'm a senior in college, majoring in biology. I would love to work in a zoo or wildlife refuge because I love animals. Or possibly be a librarian, because I love learning and researching. There is always more to learn.
Since this is the most awkward part of an online profile, and because anything I can say here would overlap with the rest of my profile, I will simply start out with a funny story.
This one time in college, I was in history class. My butt was toward the front of the chair and I was leaning back as far as I could, so all my weight was on the back of my backside. To change positions, I leaned forward to scoot back in the chair and sit up straight, but when I leaned forward, pressure I did not know was there escaped. Yeah. I farted. Really loudly. It was as if a grenade exploded. I thought "holy shit! I didn't know that was there!" I was SO embarrassed. I froze. After a few seconds or so, I started peeking around discretely to see if people were staring. They weren't.
Yes, ladies, men fart but, believe it or not, it isn't always intentional.
Good morning/afternoon/evening! I'm Anastasia and being a firm believer in "describing myself is hard" I will stick in one (NOT all-encompassing) category:
-I'm a Taurus, and oddly enough, fit most conventional Taurus female descriptions (ie, laid-back, stubborn, slow temper, aesthetically driven) pretty closely despite the fact that horoscopes are realistically useless.
I'm a bit of a "grammar nazi" and I like proper English and the occasional totally unnecessary use of Elizabethan English. Somewhere in my head I'm a fiction writer/poet instead of a psychology student, hence being wordy and a thorough abuser of adjectives. I love love love music of all kinds, and if I'm enthusiastic about something I can be a total flailing spaz, which is my excuse for having love in this sentence four times. This is an occasional thing for people who are close enough to me though...in general, with the general public, I probably just seem like a polite, mild-mannered & laid-back if not somewhat eclectic academic.
No matter how chatty and superfluous I seem right now, "IRL" I am not the most forward person in the world...I like subtleties, metaphors, things with thought that other people SHOULD be keen enough to make note of, but usually they're not. :(
So um...here we are, I guess... I'm going to be honest and say that I'm not sure what to expect here. I've been surfing around different dating sites for a while now--you know, trying to get a handle--but it seems like every place I find wants some crazy amount of money to be able to talk to anyone at all; it's driving me nuts. I mean, I understand it, but man, I'm more worried about tuition than dating site subscriptions. Anyway, important things... Well, I am a writer. I've written three and a half novels, trying to get the first one published (tough market to break into if you don't do poetry or short stories, you know?). I watch a lot of anime whenever I get the chance, love online games although my system can't really handle them anymore, play some FPS now and then (Halo/CoD). I analyze constantly--people, things, decisions--and I kind of don't have an off switch for it. Flawed logic bugs the hell out of me, and I love turning it around on people and leaving them standing there with one foot in their mouths and the other trying to stay balanced. I don't take a lot of pictures, but it isn't because I'm some kind of amorphous blob; I just don't own a camera. I do work out, just about every day. I'm not a fanatic about it, but obesity and diabetes run heavily in my family, and I'm trying to stay ahead of the curve. Um... What else... I'm a white boy, so I can't dance. I joke a lot. I can be cynical, and to survive in my household, sarcasm is a required skill honed over childhood until it's sharp enough to cut steel on a bad day. I'm really very cuddly in private, submissive, etc, but every so often, there is that one day where nothing sounds like more fun than just hitting something until it breaks. Is that psychotic? I'm not really sure. I enjoy it, though; I won't say I don't. I'm pretty comfortable with myself, psychosis or not. Big fan of fantasy and sci-fi, big fan of steampunk, big fan of webcomics (Oglaf forever). I consider myself religious, but I don't really subscribe to all the smoke and mirrors of the mainstream ones; I guess reason is my religion, more or less. That's enough for now, probably. I'm going to try to put my email in here in case they charge me to message, so we'll see. No, it isn't my actual email. It's one I check, for sites like this, but it's not tied to me in any way. I'm actually pretty easy to get along with, and finding somebody who I could meet online to play games with (LotRO at the moment) would be wonderful. I'm really more interested in a long-term relationship or in something that could develop into one. I'm about to graduate college and go looking for a career, so I would like to get my life going. I've been in a few relationships, but one was in high school, didn't go anywhere, and doesn't really count, and the other was in college with a blind girl that just didn't work (no hard feelings, just didn't work), so I've never actually been with a sighted person. My email is alennon11254(at)hotmail(dot)com, so get in touch if you're interested in talking more and getting to know one another. I'm taking pictures soon for my resume, so I'll get one of those up here whenever I do. Update: Since the membership is so cheap here, I'll probably subscribe in the next few weeks.
My name is Amanda, I am 19 as of November 1, and I absolutely love to meet new people from all walks of life. I value a person's heart and intelligence over any physical attribute. I am a psychology major and my mission in life is to be there for people and let them know how beautiful and wonderful they are. Please do not hesitate to get to know me if you're at all interested. :) I prefer to be contacted via Tumblr! http://weare-endless.tumblr.com
Hi, my name is Brandon Cogle, and I love stories! I like to write, and I love to watch movies and shows that have a great arc! I also love games, such as rpgs, that have great story lines.
