I posted part of this in the Introduction thread, as well.

Hello, I'm Landon. I'm a freelance photographer, writer, and digital artist currently in Houston, Tx.

I'm strange, opinionated, bluntly honest, passionate, determined, and intolerant of stupidity, ignorance and self-degradation.

My life is very much devoted to exploring the many genres of self-expression and the pursuit of truth.

I believe in and support The Zeitgeist Movement. Check it out.

I'm generally laid back and mellow.

I'm very passionate about keeping good health.

I love being out in nature (specifically around trees, rivers, and mountains).

Laughing is very important to me. Keeps you healthy. :)

I'm a huge sci-fi fan, especially TV shows like Stargate, Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sanctuary (which is more like a sci-fi/horror hybrid).

My interests include:
-photography and art
-researching various odd topics such as conspiracy theory, 2012, astro-theology, quantum physics, paranormal phenomenon, the occult, ancient history, ancient philosophy (Hermetics, Theosophy, etc.)
-science fiction, speculative fiction, fantasy
-absinthe
-progressive rock/metal

I enjoy going to bars (two in particular), although I don't really socialize (except with whoever goes with me). When I try to talk to strangers, I end up saying something weird and scaring them off, haha. I always order a glass of absinthe. That gets some people curious, so they ask me about it, and I gladly explain.

I unfortunately live with my grandmother at the moment, but I'm moving to San Francisco next year. It's not exactly my kind of place, but it's an escape from here. I lived in Seattle for a few months and loved it. I hope to move back there eventually.

Well, can't think of anything else to say right now. Perhaps I'll add more later. Feel free to ask questions. :)

He meant that in a good way. It would have been offensive if he'd said you could have passed for 55. Saying you look younger than your age is a compliment.

Yes, normally it is. But not if the gap in the perceived age is 26 years.

And I wasn't offended at all. As I indicated, I understood that it was not meant that way.

Yeah, my intention was to basically say that you are very beautiful for your age, haha, I poorly worded that one. :wink:

Okay, since I know I won't get a response here, please let a man with the lowest possible self esteem while still alive try.

Hi. I'm dhp, or as known in wrongplanet chat, abdhp or mathmusic. I'm 36 years old, and currently live in Palm Harbor, Florida. I will admit, it is almost impossible for me to trust anyone, but once you have my trust, I'm a very devoted, loving, caring and compassionate individual. Music, the love of my family, my job, and an interest in mathematics are the only things mostly keeping me alive (obviously besides food, shelter, and clothing). My family is very close proximity wise, and bond wise. I am on working disability, and currently a cashier at Office Depot.

Since I don't want to waste anyone's time, let me be honest and explain my faults first, and then my beneficial qualities afterward. I have a horrible temper, and have a hidden rage that I can mostly keep under control; this is due to my anxiety and depression that I have. As mentioned earlier, I have a terrible self esteem, and it is really hard for me to trust most people, as I have been picked on most of my life; the result of this is that I am slightly paranoid, not to the point where I need to be locked up though. I am somewhat lazy, but once I get going on working on something, I am a very hard worker. I do have AS. I am very sensitive to loud noises and babies crying - oh and women with low pitched voices bother me (altos, tenors); to this day, I don't know why. I am also self conscious and the worst - judgmental (this last one I am trying desperately to work on). I do not like dogs.

Now, the positives: I am very sweet (even mosquitoes like me lol), kind, sensitive, actually empathic in some situations, slight sense of humor, perhaps even a little smarter than most (my high school IQ score was 126), and I believe in compromise in a relationship. I have perfect pitch, and can play drums and some keyboard. I am a good listener.

Things I like to do is listen to progressive rock, classical, solve some math problems, watch tv, contemplate the meaning of the universe (if such a meaning exists...if not, then the answer is 42) take walks, ride my bicycle, watch cartoons and documentaries, count how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall...(just kidding), go to coffee houses on good days, make cartoon noises...and other perhaps odd things?

Anyways, I'm looking for a woman with similar interests and great morals. Looks are important (wait...I'm not shallow...let me finish), BUT a caring, good natured, loving personality is more important to me. One with good morals ("just because I slept with him doesn't mean I'm his boyfriend" is NOT an example of good morals lol). I can't handle sarcasm well, but other types of humor are awesome - even dark humor. I really don't care about height, hair color, or even eye color (if you have more or less than 2 eyes...I might be concerned, though); however, I'm short - very short - 5'5" tall, so if you're not into short men, I understand, and hope sincerely that you find who you're looking for.

Anyways, thank you for reading this if you got this far. I hope this didn't completely bore you.

I'm a chick who goes online to meet guys. :lol:

Hi, I'm Sara. I'm new to this forum, but I feel as though I was meant to come to this place. I've been single for all 22 years of my life and it's mainly because I am way too shy to meet guys, at least in person. And, usually, I'm too shy to even be able to use the standard dating sites. I get responses and just get too freaked out/nervous to respond back. *sigh*

If I have AS, it's so far gone undiagnosed. I have several of the major symptoms, so maybe it would be up to someone with AS to know if I've got it for sure!

But, anyway, all of that aside, I just graduated with a BA in English from James Madison University. I tried being a theatre major but I was much too awkward and quiet to fit in with that crowd. I'm in the Washington D.C. area of Northern Virginia. I love writing and reading (especially fantasy stories or children's books), and I'm also very into music. I'd love to be a comedy writer but I'm not sure if I have the stamina to work in the entertainment industry, so I might stick to writing books.

I am not looking for any one type of person. If you are interested in literature or music or comedy, or anything at all, I'm sure we would get along! I'm shy, but I'm also very understanding, tolerant, compassionate and loving. If you're feeling lonely, just send me a message. I'd be completely thrilled to at least be your friend.

EDIT: I forgot to describe my physical self. I'm five foot two with brown hair and blue/hazel eyes. I also smile a lot. I can be seen on YouTube under my username there, "posthumorously". That's the best way to see me. :wink:

I have looked through the listing and seen few women, much less women in my area, Birmingham, Al, Much less women around my age. I'm used to being disappointed, so I have nothing to loose.

A web designer with expertise in journalism, commercial photography, graphic design, and retail sales. Grew up in Birmingham; lived in Murray, KY and Atlanta.

Photography is a passion that goes back to my childhood. The beach is a major subject of endless possibilities, when at the beach I have the time minus distractions to concentrate. I get up before sunrise then go out at sunset.

One project I am working on is a history from the perspective of my family. What my ancestors who fought in the Civil War did, what regiment they were in, what battles they fought in. My father’s experiences in WW2.

I have a passion for classical music, I still play the vinyl I collected when I was in college, and I have listened to a DVD series of lectures.

Hi! I am a 34 y.o. guy, looking to meet a guy 25-35. I’m a quiet, sensitive introvert, but super-adorable under the surface. I’m thoughtful, and genuine, and one of a kind!

This is me!

Image

I’m looking for someone who I can be best friends with, but also connect with emotionally and affectionately. A friendship that starts out completely natural, with the chance to grow into a strong and lasting bond. Someone who brings out the best in me, and vice versa. It’s taken me a long time to go after what I want, ‘cause the label “gay” never seemed to fit me. But I decided, being happy is all that matters, and I can always be my own person. So, how 'bout we just throw all labels out the window, ‘kay?

One of the online dating sites asked me about the 6 things I couldn’t live without. Instead, I came up with 6 things that make me feel truly alive:
1. The way it feels to stand on the beach as the waves wash over my feet, in and then out, sinking into the sand as it shifts and reforms, a mesmerizing swirl.
2. The surprises of playing with kids. I will never forget, as a volunteer mentor, tossing a baseball with a 12 year old with ADD, and watching him get more interested in talking than tossing, the distance between us shrinking, until I was practically dropping the ball in his glove.
3. The chance to share my writing with an audience, as I did one night at an open mic, center stage, fears forgotten for the moment, creating a vivid experience for others with my own words, and my own voice.
4. An affectionate hand on my shoulder from a friend, sometimes casual, sometimes unexpected, sometimes awkward, but always welcome.
5. Music that makes me wanna move. Yes, even me, the wallflower, has been known to get up on my feet at a live show, or keep the beat on whatever’s within reach, when nobody’s watchin’.
6. The way it feels to laugh loud and long. Like reading back the Mad Libs after we’ve filled in the words. Dancing the skunk until it squirts you with its nectar? What?!? Oh, how I love Mad Libs.

In a nutshell, I love to live in the moment, enjoy the everyday things, and experience my surroundings with all my senses. I don't smoke, don't drink, don't do nightclubs. I haven’t lost my sense of wonder, surprise, or fun. If you haven’t either, that would be so cool, and we should hang out.

There’s just some things that should be done together. I wanna crack up laughin’, till my sides split, over nothing at all. Every day, at least once. I wanna learn new things about myself, ponder the mysteries of the universe. On those dull Monday evenings, or lazy Saturday afternoons, I wanna do nothing in particular. Toss a Frisbee, or play a stupid board game, or go ride amusement park rides till I forget who I’m supposed to be anyway. All that sh*t they say is so corny. But what do “they” know? Just so I can enjoy your company, and be my dorky, goofy, label-defying self, with no apologies.

I have really specific tastes, I know. :roll: That’s why I’m posting here, it’s just a matter of reaching the right person. So if you think you might be the one for me, or have an idea how I could find him, I’d love to hear from you! Thanks so much for reading.

I think I've only seen one Houston girl on here. It seems no matter what online community I join, there's hardly anyone from Houston.

I've deleted my long-standing MySpaz page, because MySpaz was really of no use to me anymore - especially since it's Flash-heavy, and I can't install the updated version of Flash with this outdated OS. Alas.

I'm "old" (i.e., 35+), but I'm regularly mistaken for 28, or thereabouts; I'm 6'1" (those of you who haven't run away yet may wish to continue reading) and pretty slim; attractive (based on comments that folks've made in response to my photos on Arsebook, anyway); straight; I'm a member of Mensa, though not in good standing, because, being broke, I refused to pay this year's dues; I'm not very "girly" at all (though I *do* love makeup and such, I'm rarely, if ever, caught in anything but jeans, t-shirts, and Chucks); I'm into stuff like psychological horror/zombie/suspense/etc. movies, aesthetics, Existentialism, muscle cars/choppers, sludge/d00m/drone/stoner metal, chip music, electronic music, etc., Medieval history and culture, and other various assorted things that bore the living daylights out of most everyone else (*shrug*)...

Dunno what else to say, really. I've got very specific taste in males (i.e., younger to *much* younger, tall, manorexic, brunette, light eyes, very attractive, evil sense of humor, a biting wit, and brilliant, for starters...) which is another reason why I'll probably never have another date/roll in the hay/relationship. Oh well. When I join the convent, at least I'll get to wear black...


You can currently find me at:

http://www.facebook.com/mi55anthropy

if'n yer innerested. You'll have to send me a message to receive an add request, though. Sorry...
