So I'm still way to cautious for my own good. I've not even talked to anyone on the phone even though I think I've been on this for 8 mos. Hey at least I've messaged back and forth but to little avail. The first thing that I'll say is that the profile says that I'm separated. Well the divorce papers have finally been submitted so the separated thing will only last until the courts grant the divorce. I don't want to hide anything or deceive. I'm not looking for that girl that is looking for Mr. Wright or a husband. At this point in my life I'm nervous about relationships but at the same time a bit lonely when I have rare time lone. So I'm probably shooting myself in the foot by saying all this to begin with but I don't want to lead anyone on or waste anyones time.
On the children front, I love my nieces and nephew but have no desire to have any of my own. I'm way to independent and it would be selfish of me to involve kids in my life. I don't want to make anyone feel bad but I'm not even interested in dating someone who has kids. I decided long ago that having kids in my life is not for me. Again, I don't want to waste anyones time. It's a bummer because I have seen many of profiles that are a great match except for the kid thing.
I've always been awkward when trying to approach a girl so maybe this will make it easier. At this point I just want to enjoy some company and create some fun memories and at the very least make a new friend. Perhaps a coffee to begin with. I know I'm seriously limiting myself but I'll be honest and say no strings attached and nothing serious for right now. I need to meet nice, real people to fill my alone time. I need laughter and new people to fill my life with. So for those that are looking to settle down, please don't waste your time by reading any further. I truly hope you find that perfect guy for you and you have a wonderful life together.
I'm off the wall, quirky, amuse myself often (while others roll their eyes), very young at heart, adventurous, immature at times, my four dogs and cat are the love of my life. Three of the four dogs and cat are with my x wife. Lucky for me, my x wife and I are best friends and I get to see "My Kids" (dogs and cat) often. I like very confident, self sufficient, smart, successful, adventurous girls. To push my luck, an accent never hurts.
I love to surf, fish, travel, camp, hike, ski, photography and hang glide and then on my softer side, my dogs and cat are the world to me. They are my kids.
I teach one day a week at a local school. This is a school that deals with kids that have learning disabilities, discipline issues and many other disabilities that range from ADD to schizophrenia. I instruct the kids on carpentry and use of tools. These kids are awesome and I so enjoy interacting with them.
The other four days and occasional weekend, I am running my own business doing carpentry. Don't let that fool you. It's not glamorous nor profitable. It never has been for me nor will it ever be. I've come to grips that construction is not for me and I need a huge career change. It will happen and it's never to late. It's just a matter of timing and money. I'm not proud in any way so don't take this wrong when I say that I am very good at construction but it's definitely not my passion. I really think I'd love to have a doggy day care.
With regards to sports, I'd be lying if I said that I would do well with a match that loves professional sports. Everyone has their passions and I don't disparage those that love sports but I could care less about professional sports.
I am definitely not that testosterone driven guy. I am a total nerd, independent, longing for change and adventure. The older I get the more change and adventure I find myself longing for. I'm told I'm smart but I take that with a grain of salt. Maybe I'm smart in some ways but definitely nieve and stupid in others.
