According to PoF's guidelines:
1 - Hobbies, they're the same as my interests :) and watching my alma mater in sports
2 - Goals and aspirations, without getting into details, I'd say get established in my career industry wise, I'm pretty much settled in my career at my company. (This might make more sense when you find out more)
3 - Myself and what makes me unique, I'm me :) there is no other me so I'm unique right? :) You'll hear more about me below
4 - My tastes in music... I can listen to almost anything. If I had a choice on what I had to listen to, classical music and 80s, classical and alternative rock (I think that's what I like). Of course there are the occasional song or two you'd like from a music genre you usually don't listen to :)

Ok now my stuff :) Not sure what to put so here goes...

I'm a family oriented person, most of flying trips involve trips to spend time with my cousins :)

I like pretty much anything that's interactive. Any outdoor activities or sports.

I'm pretty happy with just hanging out and not having to do anything in particular :)

I can plan something down to the tiniest detail and at the same time I'm just as comfortable with winging it and making an adventure out of it :)

bowling, pool/billiards, golf driving range, cycling are activities I enjoy and have done recently... But anything outdoors is fun :) uhh once I don't run into alligators :)


Hmm so I'm not sure if I did a good job there... Take a chance, chat with me, you'll learn more about me from chatting with me than from my attempt of what I just wrote :) If you just don't feel the vibe, no hard feelings :)

. I am looking for my first bi experience with no strings attached or maybe a third party to me and my boyfriend

Hello, I am a current full time student working on my Bachelors degree in science. I work full time in a hospital. I have one child and I am in a comitted relationship. I am looking for friends to chat with being that I dont really know to many people do to my schedule. Although I am bi-curious. I am very shy and not the type to make a first move. I dont like to play games and life is too short to waste time. Otherwise I am a fun loving down to earth person. So if your interested let me know.
TTYL.

I'm a Pastafarain and we believe women should be the ones to make the first move, so please feel free to do so! (I'm really not kidding its in the Gospel)

About Me
I recently moved out to the Picayune area of MS and may be up for a date sooner or later. I'm not taking things fast and am just looking to make a friend unless sparks fly. I can still take care of business if the moment springs on us, but I'm not rushing things and really just want to enjoy the sunset and hear the waves crashing on the beach. I've got alot going on and whenever I have some down-time, I'd like to spend it with someone safe and comfortable to be around. Can you relate?

It's easier for me to say what kind of woman I'm not looking for, since so many of you are so wonderful and there are so many different kinds of 'attractive'.

-Fat or annorexic.

These ladies I've described are people too, and deserve happiness, but I just can't give it to them.

I love beauty and making everything wonderful.

You: “Where are all the good guys? Why cant I ever find them.” “Why to I attract all the a holes…”

Its up to you to change your destiny with those “ a holes”.

Currently I am looking forward to going back to school and finishing what I started 7 years ago( 2 associates degrees). Probably end up continuing with it and getting my bachelors or masters in something. I just haven’t decided what it will be yet, maybe basket weaving? I love to help people and be outside with people. My comfort level in dangerous situations is why I do what I do for a living. So maybe Ill find something along those lines

For some reason the more busy I get the more comfortable I am. It seems like it consumes the things that bother me in life.

I would love love love to meet a woman who has direction in her life and knows what she wants from a man. You have to be able to make decisions on your own and not rely on everyone else to make them for you. When stuff in your life gets tough get some balls (figuratively speaking)and do what you gotta do to do what you wanna do! You should know what you want in your life and be ready to get it done.

...indeed, I've tripped and fallen flat on my face so often that it's all scratched and dented already, despite my having bought it quite recently in anticipation of my sally forth into the perilous world of online dating. :-(

Okay, now that I've figured out how to wear my helmet properly, I can actually see where I'm going and avoid running into objects, so I've managed to calm down and can now tell you a little bit about myself:

I'm currently a PhD candidate at Michigan State. GO GREEN! I'm fairly laid-back, and perhaps some would say I'm an unassuming guy. In nearly every aspect of my life, I prefer to be pragmatic and to always keep things real (hence the profile title). That's not to say that I don't value morally and intellectually sound ideals--far from it--but I'm generally satisfied with putting in my best effort and standing by the outcome.

I'm looking to meet a smart, funny and interesting girl, with a view towards friendship, possibly more, if we were to really hit it off. I'm always open to new experiences. I enjoy lively, intelligent conversations on pretty much any topic, and love to have a good laugh.

***Update***
I guess its because I don't really know you and it doesn't matter what strangers think of me, I can be open about things I normally wouldn't say.

You probably are more experienced than me. I have been with 5 people in the last 10 years so I really don't have any idea what guys are looking for anymore.

On the outside my life is perfect. I run my own business, I live in my dream house, I drive nice cars, I have everything I need, but after it all is said and done I am still lonely.

I have already outlived my pawpaw, my grandmother and my Daddy. On that side of the family I don't have any siblings, any aunts, uncles, or even cousins. I am the last Abernathy in my family. Many people don't realize how important family is, try not having any

I have lost 60 lbs in the last 5 months and I did it with my elbow so badly broken that 2 surgeries later I still am not allowed to lift over 10 lbs. I broke my elbow off when a horse lost his balance when I was cantering him and he fell over sideways back in Feb. I was alone in the arena for 30 min. before my room mate could get home and help me. I couldn't get up by myself, I couldn't get dressed by myself, and I couldn't work for a month after that. I never wore a cast.

I'm not telling you this for you to pity me. I am the strongest person most people that know me have ever met. I don't sit around and let things happen to me. I get up and do something about it.

However, I want to be taken care of again. I want to feel safe in someones arms again. I want to be treated like a lady and I would love to spoil you in return.

I doubt I will find much in this cesspool (haha), but I've befriended some great guys during my previous times as a member; perhaps I'll find even more who enrich my life with knowledge and happiness. I figured looking online could only help my chances. :)

About Me
Ok, so before you read this ladies, I want to ask for your honest oppinions about me, good bad or indifferent, please take a moment to drop me a note and let me know what can be improved on here to make you want to meet with me. Because seriously I am a great fun and loving dude and am wondering why you ladies don't answer my messages. Thanks for the input, now read on.

I am a very independant person.

most except rap or country, my music interests are variable to the mood I am in.

I love the beach, boats, boogie boarding, hiking skiing sailing prettymuch anything outdoors, I want someone who i could just hang out with or see where the chemistry goes. I want a workout partner to help encourage me into the shape I want to be in. I used to weigh 285 now hovering around 235 at 6 foot 3 inches.

I am outgoing, like to dance despite what others may think of my style. I know a little Salsa, line dancing, two step, square dancing, hip hop, techno what ever, I am not shy about dancing to ")feel good" music. I know what I like and don't like in a woman. I like one who is passionate, self sustaining, healthy, happy, outgoing, people person, active, clean (in all areas of life), organized (to an extent, I mean we all have little messes like in the garage), sexualy passionate, not a lump in the bed, enjoys the great outdoors and can hold her own in hiking boots with little or no complaints(better that way), likes to cook or be cooked for, has an attitude about trying anything once, is not neggative and does not talk about people who are not present to defend themselves, I know I can ramble on......just sit down with me will ya and we will take one step at a time. I am a little ADD at times so please be patient. lol....just kidding.

First Date
Spend little or no money (on the first outting, just to feel eachother out first) instead be creative about how to enjoy the outdoors hiking bike riding sailing for free talking having coffee talking about business aspirations, exploring eachothers thoughts dreams and real life experiences.

I am not really looking to date per se because my wife and I just split up, I just moved in with a great family here in North Fontana Falcon Ridge area 13 days ago, I am content and happy because despite the divorce I have a very bright future with my glass always full.

Come meet with me we can have some activity type of fun and just talk. Or whatever.

sexualy passionate, not a lump in the bed

hiking or sailing, and then " I am also looking for a guest to join me for a cruise out of Long Beach to baja for 5 days 4 nights for October 12th-16th. The cost for the cruise is $250 to you, that includes port fees and taxes, and you can book your travel here www.takemeawayworld.com let me know if you love travel like me and we shall go sailing into blue waters."

1)Must believe that Jesus is the son of God, and be fumbling around following him.

First Date
On a first date, I would like to fumble around.

Beautiful, creative, intelligent and sexy blonde looking for irreverent, creative, intelligent man.

Thanks for reading so far! I know I haven't covered other issues such as how I am in a relationship, what types of women I'm attracted to, what type of relationship I'm looking for, all the countries I've been to, the Israeli military combat training I do, the crazy interests listed in my profile, etc.. because I'd rather tell you. So give me a shout if you want to take advantage of this opportunity life brought to you; You won't regret it.

Come on girls, you can't all be looking for the same Prince Charming. Sometimes you need to kiss a frog or two to find your happily ever after. LOL

I would like to start right off by saying to all lady skeptics out there:

I would love to find my best friend, my companion. I am not into "hooking up", I am not married, I have a job, I own a car, I own my own home, I have two beautiful grown children I'm very proud of.

Ok, now that that's out of the way. LOL

If so, what has been your experience? I have been on POF for about a week. As of this writing, I have contacted 127 different women in Florida

About Me
I'm a professional with strong roots in Upstate NY (not NYC). I've lived in Orlando for 4 years and I'm slowly filling my life with closer friends and creating my surrogate family. I miss the food and culture in NY, but like the variety that Orlando has to offer. I work hard and play any way the mood strikes me. Though, I have to admit, the urge to party hard is waning now that I'm out of my 20's, in favor of just spending quality time with family and friends and pursuing professional goals. I love to cook for other people. Guess it's the Italian in me... I am a 'recovering' engineer with an MBA. I have great ambitions in my new profession. I'm striving for a lifestyle where I can be in complete control of my life and have the autonomy to pursue anything I desire. Everyone should have some ambitions in life and be motivated every day to go after them. I'd love to hear about yours, perhaps over a beer or a martini one evening.

I want my own children and I prefer dating ladies without children, but I'm willing to make an exception for the perfect lady/kid combo.

Especially for the ladies that I think enough of to put on my favorites list: I put a few ladies on my favorites that have caught my eye for one reason or another, but that I don't necessarily write to. There's not enough time in the day to chase all the girls... So, if you're one of my favorites, don't waste time wondering why I haven't written. Do something about it. Write me or something. Don't be so damn obstinate.

There's not enough time in the day to chase all the girls

By the way, flakes need not apply. Really. Case in point: Don't be the chick that wrote me an email and then blocked me before I could reply. My first reaction was to be offended, but I spent about half a mili-second wondering if there was a bird flapping around in your noggin before realizing the futility of that... At any rate, if you don't have any class, best not to show it off. Don't be "that chick". Of course, that's just my opinion. You do what you want. Nuf-said.

For the ladies with children: In my experience, you are particularly prone to prying at the marriage/daddy resume way too soon. My readiness to be in a relationship depends on how I feel about you. I'm not 17 anymore, so, it's unlikely that I'm falling in love on the first date. Let it evolve. Step 1: See if you like one another. Step 10: Commitment.

Someone who inspires me to become a better man because i want to not because she wants me to.

because i want to not because she wants me to

Every man wants a good-looking woman but without a brain, common sense, and the right mix of immaturity and sense of humor you wont keep my interest.

I want passion and allot of laughter but when things are serious I want mutual respect.

This doesn't mean you let people walk all over you just means you can control your emotions and use your brain to solve an issue.

I dont care to keep up with the Joneses there broke anyways.

I would rather experience something than to have something.

About Me
Where do I start? Well, first and foremost, I like to think I'm a good person. I do believe in treating others as I'd like to be treated and I hope to find someone who agrees with that philosophy. I would also like to think that I've learned a great deal from past relationships. The things I've learned, I believe, have made me a better person and someone who is not likely to make the same mistakes twice. If everything works out, I am definitely interested in a long-term relationship.
As for me, I think of myself as a good guy, someone who loves to laugh and doesn't mind being laughed at. I try to keep myself busy but there are times when I really hate being single. Going out for dinner by yourself really sucks!
Anyway, I have a full-time job, share a house with my dog Barney (aka, The Boss), have no children, go to the gym pretty much every day and just started playing hockey again last winter after a 25-year layoff. I absolutely love to travel and have been going on resort vacations for about the past 15 winters now.
I could go on and on, but this will have to do for now.
As for you, ideally you are a good-hearted woman who loves to laugh and doesn't take life seriously all the time.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Oh, and a few people have asked about my ethnic background. It's English, as in from England.

I dislike arrogance (not to be confused with confidence), people blowing their noses at the table (yuck), people who complain all the freakin time, anyone who doesn't know how to park their vehicle in a parking spot, & ppl who honk in traffic (come on now folks).

On a final note...I am very trusting and warm but don't let that fool you for one second, I will call you on your bullsh*t!!!

well I changed my profile the other day, cause I didnt want anyone to assume I am only on here to find a husband.lol so I am looking for a friend to hang out with.

soooo looking for a friend doesn't add so much pressure to me as going out on a intimate date..

I get invited constantly but decline a lot of the time because its couples.

So let me just say this... I have fallen off the wagon with cig's 2 times, its extremley hard but im still trying to quit, I am not a 10..but I am a 7.5 or 8 depending on the day. I dont have young kids mine are 21-26 all boys. I live alone, I am employed, I love to cook once in a while, but the most important thing is it takes me a minute to warm up..

if you have enough friends than thats great and no hard feelings.

I put that referrence about the 7 or 8 , because i recently went out for drinks with a guy and in a statement he said ,"In my younger years i only settled for a 10, but as i get older i have to re-evaluate my score and go for more like a 6 or 7. (uummm that was the first and only date with him)

well I changed my profile the other day, cause I didnt want anyone to assume I am only on here to find a husband.lol so I am looking for a friend to hang out with, go boating, barbaguing with friends, fourwheeling, camping, etc... I get invited constantly but decline a lot of the time because its couples. so let me just say this...

Virgo natives have the reputation of being cool, undemonstrative and even somewhat frigid in their attitude toward love and romance. However, this is rarely the case. Rather, it is the most calm waters which tend have the most depth. There is a need here to express the deepest emotions in an almost self-sacrificing manner, which is why Virgo subjects will give a great deal of themselves to a cause in which they are interested, or in a way of life which they feel is the only way. If that way of life should be marriage, then these individuals will be fully dedicated to making the partnership a success. Persons who fall beneath the jurisdiction of this Zodiac Sign can be very withdrawn, particularly with strangers. Indeed, they only appear warm and loving to those who know them best. Virgo natives require a tranquil partner and a solid foundation for happiness. These are earthbound souls in moral outlook, which does not mean they have no spiritual side but merely that they are not prone to float or drift. Deeply-rooted in fundamental beliefs, the Virgo subject is unmoved by the more ariel or light-hearted spirits. Those ruled by Virgo will never be flattered by charm or overcome by acts of show or overwhelmed by admiration for the flashy. These are persons who know what they want...in both love and life...and will pursue their partner of choice with much determination. This is truly a shining nature, generous in unmaterial things while being careful in every other respect. Virgo individuals can only be happy with a mate they believe to be ideal in every way and they are willing to wait until such a person comes along.
The Virgo male is orderly and methodical in his thinking, but not always in his dress. Typically a generous and loyal soul, he may not be overly sympathetic in romantic affairs although he constantly harbors a desire to assist those in need. This man usually proves to be a true partner or husband..once he makes up his mind..and will be very affectionate and devoted to his family. At times, Virgo males may be extremely demanding, requiring that any mates prove themselves over and over again. They will also expect sacrifices to be made if necessary. Anyone seeking a "sugar daddy" or a man who will take infinite care of his partner had best seek elsewhere. This individual can be depended upon, but he is nobody's fool. The key word here is integrity and above all else, the Virgo male needs to feel that he is worthy. This is a man with a quick mind and one who is practical and honest. However, he is basically shy in terms of sharing his feelings. Any partner must help the Virgo male to build his confidence and it would be foolish to expect him to be outgoing. This is a far from happy-go-lucky soul. In order to fully understand him, it is necessary to learn how to "read between the lines." Males governed by Virgo need mates who have faith in them and can appreciate depth of feeling. Patience will also be a factor when it comes to achieving goals. To be truly happy with a Virgo man, any prospective partner must appeal to his intellect rather than his emotions. He is inherently critical and discriminating, and does not admire anyone who is weak or whimpering. Males governed by Virgo prefer strong individuals who can hold their own in any given situation. By nature, men of this Zodiac Sign are very practical and will not waste a great deal of time on those who cannot command their respect. If this male ever appears harsh and arbitrary, then it is probably because he expects much more from a partner than that person has been able to provide. In marriage, he will be self-sufficient, dutiful and faithful. Though dependable souls and good providers, Virgo males are not necessarily exciting or adventurous when it comes to romance. Thus, many partners of these men often seek clandestine affairs. It will be important for any mate to realize that no amount of love, attention and/or devotion will ever transform this man into a Don Juan. When it comes to the ability to change, he will inevitably be somewhat stuck in his ways. His staid attitude is frequently well-hidden in the early stages of a love affair. Indeed, he may initially come across as flirtatious, seductive and a veritable tease.
