This test was pretty accurate :

The Idealist
You scored 48 Extroversion, 78 Intuition, 86 Emotional, and 61 Spontaneity!

INFP
INFPs are quiet, creative, sensitive and perceptive souls who often strike others as shy, reserved and cool. These folks have a rare capacity for deep caring and commitment--both to the people and causes they idealize. INFPs guide their behavior by a strong inner sense of values, rather than by conventional logic and reason. Forced to cope with this facts-and-figures "real" world we inhabit, INFPs may appear to have been imported from another galaxy! They gravitate toward creative or human service careers which allow them to use their instinctive sens of empathy and remarkable communication skills. Strongly religious, spiritual or philosophical people, INFPs may see the purpose of their lives as an inner journey, quest or personal unfolding. More practical or rational types may tend to discredit the INFP's sources of understanding as mystical. The search for a soulmate is a preoccupation for many INFPs, who must balance their need for privacy and peace with their yearning for human connection. If there seems to be an air of sadness in the INFP's spirit, blame it on this type's longing for the perfect in all things.

Relationships
INFPs present a calm, pleasant face to the world. They appear to be tranquil and peaceful to others, with simple desires. In fact, the INFP internally feels his or her life intensely. In the relationship arena, this causes them to have a very deep capacity for love and caring which is not frequently found with such intensity in the other types. The INFP does not devote their intense feelings towards just anyone, and are relatively reserved about expressing their inner-most feelings. They reserve their deepest love and caring for a select few who are closest to them. INFPs are generally laid-back, supportive and nurturing in their close relationships. With Introverted Feeling dominating their personality, they're very sensitive and in-tune with people's feelings, and feel genuine concern and caring for others. Slow to trust others and cautious in the beginning of a relationship, an INFP will be fiercely loyal once they are committed. With their strong inner core of values, they are intense individuals who value depth and authenticity in their relationships, and hold those who understand and accept the INFP's perspectives in especially high regard. INFPs are usually adaptable and congenial, unless one of their ruling principles has been violated, in which case they stop adapting and become staunch defenders of their values. They will be uncharacteristically harsh and rigid in such a situation.

Strengths
Warmly concerned and caring towards others
Sensitive and perceptive about what others are feeling
Loyal and committed - they want lifelong relationships
Deep capacity for love and caring
Driven to meet other's needs
Strive for "win-win" situations
Nurturing, supportive and encouraging
Likely to recognize and appreciate other's need for space
Able to express themselves well
Flexible and diverse

I really don't feel like writing out a long statement of who I am...just talk to me instead.

let's see....single, adventurous, humurous, friendly, nontempermental, educated, full of engergy and athletic.
what iam not into.....drugs, smoking, screaming, being mean, having a temper

Writing self-summaries is like being in a socially awkward situation... except you're by yourself on your computer on OkCupid. See? Awkward.

Well... I just graduated from New College of Florida with a B.A. in Humanities. I loved New College, even when I hated it, learned a lot, gained new perspectives on the world, and socially... I am having a hard time gaining closure with the fact that I will no longer have 400 siblings pestering my dormroom, inbox, classroom, so on and so forth. I'm getting there though. In a few months I'll be moving to France for a year! I don't even speak French! Merde!

Until then, I'm living in St. Pete Beach, working part-time as a cook, and doing a full time apprenticeship at an AMAZING art gallery & artist co-op called ArtPool! Yay!

Ok...here i am again but this time my man and I looking for females to have intimate relations with. and females only.

I'm a recent graduate of the New College of Florida in Sarasota, Fl. I got my degree in Urban Studies major and hope to teach some day. I have extremely eclectic tastes: In music, I love Radiohead, The Decemberists, Bob Dylan, Devendra Banhart, Ben Folds Five, and TV on the Radio. I dabble in photography and writing. I have a job in a law office and intern at the Sarasota Planning Office. In what little spare time I have, I enjoy reading, listening to music, cooking, and generally being am Apple computer geek.

Hi there, looking for friends, romance and much much more!!! recently moved to Florida and absolutely love it here. I have been all around this world and like to think of myself as a seasoned traveler. I work in the food industry and try to convince myself that I like people, yet the occasional idiot can ruin it for the lot....just kidding, but ya'll know what i mean!
I am a big fan of family, and miss the times i spent with my family in San Diego, but work took me in a different direction, and now I am clearly across the map from them....
I have two lil dogs, that mean the world to me, Bill and Peg, they are Bichons. They keep me off the couch and moving to different parks(I like to mix up their little adventures) . They are always happy when I am home and a actually require lots of attention which most days I am happy to give them.
I also like to work out, not at the gym, but just in general. I feel that the mind needs the body in great condition to make great decisions...

Letâ??s exchange emails to share and compare our likes, passions, hungers, desires, see if weâ??re on the same page and have the initial spark of chemistry to meet.. and then enjoy life and love and pleasure fully~

I am a down to earth type of guy. I am hispanic Dominican. I love to dance and have a goodtime when I can. Its been tough since I moved to Florida because its like trying to find a needle in a hay stack to get people to go out. Oh well, I love cars and racing is a passion for myself.

La la la la la. La la la la la. La la la la la dee da.

I am currently at New College of Florida studying biochemistry, although I might change my major any day now. I participate in a few extracurriculars, but overall I just like to spend time with my wonderful bunch of friends. I am a bit of a straight-lace, but if I'm in the right mood, the possibilities are endless.

On my own, I am one of those people who like to watch crime/drama shows, and read manga and sci fi. If under the inspiration, I write and draw, but that happens less than I'd like it to. I am also a little bit of a stickler about recycling and try to do my part to slow the growth of landfills.

I don't really know why I'm doing this but I'm sure it couldn't hurt putting myself out there. This all really just started when my friend wanted me to sign up just so he could win an iPod from this site.
Being goal oriented, I am passionate about everything I do. I love my guitar even though I don't play that well and I love music in general. And I also enjoy dancing once in a while.
Ever since working on my dad's horticultural farm, I'm in love with nature. I can't get enough of the outdoors! Oh, and I'm also a vegetarian and have been for a little over 3 years because I love animals too much to eat 'em.

I am the oldest of 3 brothers, and it shows. I love being the older brother, nothing brings a bigger smile to my face than to see my little brothers succeed; family is very important to me! I love to meet new people and learn about them. I am always learning something new. Ahora estudiando espanol.

I grew up very religous and conservative, but now I am not sure. I think whether or not someone believes in God they need to have character. I think a lot about the ovarian lottery, and how much where and when you were born matters. I am a very pragmatic optimist! I love freedom. I like short sentences. I also like long winding adjective-laden run-on sentences that talk about multiple things that are kind of related and would drive any english teacher up a big pointed wall. I have to laugh, and make those around me laugh, sometimes this gets me in trouble. Life is much more fun when lived with a smile.

I am at kind of a transitional point, having just graduated college in June, and having lived in Florida for less than 6 months. Can't wait for what is next, life is so full of possiblities.

Hey there! I'm Tali. I love to have fun and make people laugh. I'm really laid back and love to go out with my friends. I like all types of girls so lets talk! =)

My name is Codie. Hi.
I love art. I like people. I like talking to them.
I'm at a point in my life where I'm looking for either an honest, serious relationship, or good friends, and nothing in between.

my name is jose.im 32 years old.im divorced.im an electricial engineer for a facory in bradenton.this is my home town.im looking for my special someone to have in my life.....

HI....Whistles loudly, taps on your computer screen... Yea, YOU, I'm talking to you, where've you been all my life? LOL...Ok so whatchya waiting for, send me a message already, how else will ya know if we will click or not? LOL...As you can see I love making people smile, and hopefully my technique worked. Now I could go into that I want my prince in shining armour to come and rescue this damsel in distress, but we all know that only happens in the movies. What I really want in my life is someone who can make me smile, let their guard down, and just go with the flow. Who knows what could happen, you just might be surprised. If you never take that chance, you'll never know, then the question will always be in the back of your mind, what IF? I am a proud mother of a 20 year old son, and he's it to this day. I do not promise to be perfect, but dayum if I don't have some great qualities, So come on, get to know me and let me get to know you, The possibilites are endless. True love is long term; it provides a safe port in an often-chaotic world.

JUST A THOUGHT: Dating can be stressful, but also tons of fun....Don't go into a date thinking this is it, I found her/him, go in with your eyes open and expect a great friendship, if something else develops all the more better, if nothing does develop your hopes were not crushed and there was a reason you went on that date in the first place, keep the friendship line open, cause again people are people with feelings, sure they may not be for you, BUT they are for someone, and to be a part of that is grander than any preplanned event....:) Hugs!!!!

I just moved to Florida in July. This is the sixth state I've lived in over the past 10 years, but I think this one is for good. Or at least for a good long while.

I'm an easy going person. I try to make sure that everyone around me is having a good time. I am unapologetically perverted and I've been known to make a horrible pun or two. Expose yourself to my humor at your own risk.

In the interests of truth in advertising, I should say upfront that I am a pretty big nerd. I hide it well in mixed company, probably a function of my occupation, but rest assured it's there. My interests, in no particular order, and with godawful grammar -- good conversations, driving aimlessly to discover new parts of the country while blasting my music and singing poorly, watching soccer (Go Gooners!), being addicted to British television shows like Quite Interesting and Black Adder, cooking, hanging out with friends, anything involving a frisbee, reading pretty much anything but especially fantasy/sci-fi (love Terry Pratchett), D&D, learning to kayak, wishing I had a pet, listening to music (Guster and Ben Folds Five are personal favorites), playing adult board games (no, not *those* kinds of adult board games, you perv! games like Settlers of Cataan).

I despise sunlight. I've been wandering in circles for eons. When I am near, living things lie as dead; few keep my company. Many myths have have been born on account of my existence. Children fear me, yet I am kept at bay by something as simple as a small flame. Among my dearest friends are a soldier, a winged horse, a great lion, a many-headed serpent, and a great ram. Who am I?

If you would like to know the answer, you'll have to message me... You'll not find it on google; I wrote it. I'm James. According to most, I am rather strange, and I tend to make normal people wonder how it is that I escaped from the asylum. I sometimes come off as full of myself when I attempt to describe myself directly in text, so I generally write things that confuse people, or perhaps pique the curiosity of the reader enough to talk to me and get to know me firsthand. I hate writing these, I think that they're a bad representation of anyone's character. So, send me a message, and we'll see where it goes from there.

Music-loving IT guy works hard and plays hard. Life is too short for drama.

Hello, I'm a college student who's only limitation is the sky. I love trying new things and am always out to accomplish and do something. I am a geek, but certainly a very proactive geek. I'm a software engineer and I am interested in technology. It's difficult to describe myself here because to fully understand who I am and my personality, you would have to have a conversation with me.

I'm heavily into cooking, and I love to cook for people. I try new recipes all the time and find new things to cook and eat. I absolutely love food, and who ever said the way to a mans heart is food, was a genius. One day I hope to be able to travel around the world to try food from all of my favorite countries.

Overall I'm a very open person and embrace new experiences. I try new things all the time and live life to the fullest.

It is what it is. June will make 3 years I have been widdowed. Starting to get my sence of loss under control. Not sure what I want exept be able to carry a 40 hour week. I think life will bring me a companian or not. Being a recluse lonner comes easy for me although it is not the life style of choise. I like the miltary and the Coast Guard Auxiliary fills that void. I am a skinney person at heart and maybe the lord will bless me with some help. For what it is worth when married I was a tea totler. Now I drink at home if I am not planning to go out. I never like to smoke and that is still the case. The only way you get to know a person is to go out with them a few times. If you click so much to the good. If not at least you had a litte entertainment. Age, race, religen is not a issue with me just want to get along.

24 Italain,Gemini,Just moved to florida a few months ago.Really haven't met to many people yet been busy settlen in.I'm very out going,like to get as many laughs as possible.Just about into anything.Traveln,Anaimals,Cars,Sports,Poker,School,Golf basially tryn to live life to the fullest.

So something about me I guess. I am 24 just turned 24 last month my birthday is on July 4th woohoo! Its a blessing and a curse to have a birthday on a holiday message me and ask why.

If I had to describe myself in one word I would have to say: Geek. Now don't let that fool you I am not like someone from revenge of the nerds. (but I do love that movie) I am just a normal techy geek guy. I love movies and video games, I love to mess around on my computer. I like art and anime and comics too.

I think thats enough for a small summary.

I'm a down to earth girl- love my family and friends, good- natured, smart and secure. I feel really fortunate- I think I have a great life.
I have a tough time with people who are moody, high maintenance, or take themselves too seriously. I love going out with friends and having drinks- but I'm not interested in meeting someone through the bar scene. I won't settle- I would much rather be happy doing my own thing. I enjoy being around people smarter than myself- I believe "iron sharpens iron." I'm known for my smile and love to make people laugh. Its a great compliment that others consider me funny! I enjoy being feminine but am often caught in flip flops and a tshirt on the weekends. When I'm not working, I have a great life which keeps me busy. I love taking my dog out to the park.
I genuinely enjoy meeting new people. I've heard that a lot of people misrepresent themselves on this which I think is pretty sad. It would be nice if people stopped trying so hard and just started being themselves!!
I am very laid back and generally content most situations. I love going out with friends but then there are some nights where there is nothing better than spending a comfy evening at home. My ideal match is comfortable with himself. He is intelligent, funny, kind and down to earth. A sense of humor is the key to my heart! If you can laugh at yourself- I'm hooked. I like someone who can keep me on my toes- who is naturally funny, spontaneous, a little mischevious. My match would be a guy who understands responsibility- but doesn't take life too seriously. Confident but not arrogant is attractive to me. And integrity- I'd like to meet the kind of guy that believes everyone deserves respect-no matter what their position in life. Someone who recognizes you can be a couple and still maintain your own individuality. Who loves holding hands but doesn't need hand holding. Maintains high standards but isn't high maintenance.

Where to begin? I'm a very complicated creature, I love life and living in the moment. Music runs through my veins, I love movies, and just hanging out at home (I can be a homebody but I like to go out too). I'm easily entertained and LOVE to laugh. The dirtier the joke the better LOL :-) Love meeting new people, so don't be shy if you wanna shoot me a message!

Ok well my name is Nichole I've lived in sarasota/bradenton my whole life... I plan to move one day and hopefully live all kinds of different places... including Chicago, St. Thomas, Alaska, another country for awhile... anyways I am trying to finish my degree in criminology, I've always been interested in that field. I love music mostly rock.. I play the guitar and piano pretty well if I do say so myself. I am alittle OCD+BIPOLAR I hope that doesn't scare you.. it's not as bad as it sounds :P I'm alittle bit of a bully at times but it's usually out of love. Just thought I'd get the quirky things about me out of the way first :P I am also a very hard worker.. when I do something I put everything I have into it. I like things to shine when I'm finished if it doesn't I don't feel like I accomplished the task. One last thing alot of the people on here ask my why I don't already have a bf or gf and honestly I think its because I don't really like that many people.. I mean I can like someone in a friend sense but intimately or romantically I very rarely feel it. Even though I don't wanna admit it, but it would be nice to find someone that I truly like and could eventually find myself looking at their quirks and loving them even more :) anyways if I didn't scare you away hit me up!

I graduated from the University of South Florida in May 09, but with the economy as it is, I have been unable to get a full time job in my field. However, that does not mean I'm unemployed. I work at what I consider the geek Mecca, Best Buy.

I am a little chubby; however, I am not as heavy as I was a year ago. Within 12 months I have lost 130 lbs, an achievement I am very proud of. I have become an exercise junkie, working out an hour a day, 5 days a week.

Hi everyone! This is all new to me (on line dating), but I am open to anything. I am starting a new chapter in my life and ready for the adventure of meeting new people.

So here's my story... I was married for 10 years and have been divorced for 2 years now. I have an adorable 4 year old son that I cherish dearly. However, being a single mom doesn't really facilitate doing the bar scene to meet people. So I have resorted to on-line dating. Being a great mom is the most important thing in my life, however, there is much more to me than that. I am still a human being with my own interests, needs, wants and desires! I am hoping to meet someone to reveal and share those parts of myself.

I am calm, patient, quiet (at first), affectionate, loving, gentle, warm, sweet, thoughtful, caring, romantic, and willng to do just about anything to make someone happy (as long as its legal), and I believe I have a good sense of humor. I am the girl next door, looking for the guy next door.

An unique mix of focused ambition and drive yet I am not fanatical about success. I project a serious persona balanced with a sharp wit and a nothing sacred view of life. Easily engaged in intelligent conversations questioning the meaning of life but will also take the devil's advocate role to stimulate the discussion.

Life is too short to be too serious so there is also the playful side. Love travel especially long transatlantic cruises visiting far away places with strange sounding names. I find reality tv hilarious and serious drama intriquing. College football and basketball exciting ... baseball boring.

Believe in partnerships, commitment and loyality in business and life. Shared responsibilites and accountability are required.

Guess I just have to accept being a Gemini.

My goal in life is to live life with a balance. A life full of passion, excitement, making memories but also a life that is constant, stable and secure. I consider myself intelligent, witty, honest to a fault, personable, open minded and versatile.

Parenting, family values are a priority in my life as well as I strive to improve myself and have an open mind to live a better life everyday. My motto in life is to pay it forward. Manners and common courtesy are important to me as well.

I am versatile when it comes to enjoying almost any facet of life....putting on a t-shirt/blue jeans to go hiking to wearing a long black evening gown and experience a broadway musical. I would love to share each others interests but still have our own as well.

Myself - restless, analytical, and full of fun! I am independent but don't mind asking for help when needed. I enjoy exploring new things and want to see and do as much as I can..We have so little time here~ I want to take it all in!
Timeless books and movies that make you wonder for days about whose side you are on put great flavor into many of my evenings.
I grew up in the country so do not mind getting my hands dirty but I was a CEO of my own company and VP of another so I know how to act like a lady and entertain in any situation.

I love to laugh and have fun! I am easy going yet like to be challenged!

I'm a student at Eckerd College. I took a break from school for a while and I'm going back. I've lived in Alabama for a while and I'm back in Bradenton, Florida where I grew up. I don't know what else to put so I'm leaving it here.

I think I am a normal every day guy. I am laid back. I am looking to meet new peope. If thinks work great, if not thats life. I dont want drama or B.S.

I love Adventures and movies and travel.

I think life is best experienced with others. I enjoy reading and creating and Swimming in the ocean at night. Life is too short to let others live for me, so I try to make the most of any situation.

I am a lover. I am passionate about Human Rights.

I am shy at first, but after a few moments, I become outgoing.

I am fairly masculine.

Im 23, I live bradenton fl. Im getting ready to join the military as a military police officer.Im going back to college, to work on a Bachelors degree in criminal justiceand in children phsychology. Im looking for someone who will accept me for me. Dont judge a book by its cover, Im a great person who always commits to everything, and i dont like to give up.If there is ever a problem that needs to be worked out, I find a way to work it out.I am a very true person I dont think any one can be trurer than me, I dont cheat and Ill try anything once, except for cheating. So if you are looking for some one to treat you right,Ill be that person who will treat you right. I think women will read this and not believe it because they have heard it before but give me a chance and you will believe,I am the real deal. "what do I have to do to get some attention?" leave me a message if you can answer this question, or just playinout leave a message we will answer it together.

Hi my name is Chris. I not very good at telling people about myself but here goes anyway...
My best friend tells people that I'm the nicest asshole you'll ever meet. It's not that I'm a mean person but I'm very reserved and I guess that comes off as kinda cold. I'm a pretty funny guy I don't think you can do anything better than make somebody laugh and smile as cheesy as that may sound.
Let's see what else I'm 5'8" and have a slim build I've got muscle but not alot just started working on that. Blonde hair blueish or gray eyes depending on my mood. I'm very logically minded and can't leave any mystery unsolved, don't ask me a question if you don't really want an answer. I love weird trivia.

.No recent pic / no reply..I need to see your eyes and smile.. I'm 56 and raised a kid alone, been a single parent since my 30+ yr old daughter was 9 weeks old..Every parent knows what that involves......What I want is a simple and comfortable relationship of committed devotion.. Together but not attached at the hip..2 people blending and building and sharing a life..Loving and supporting and respecting each other as equal partners..I am a homebody, not a hermit..I am remodeling my house ( a woman's touch would be nice) and I have a 1/2 acre yard on a pond (lots of trees and bushes, an avid gardeners dream) a pool & hot tub...I am rehabilatating from a major motorcycle accident and making excellent progress, but still working on my back and legs...I'm a good man that wants a good woman..I smoke..I don't drink and don't care if you do..I like to cook, romance, affection, the fireplace, laughing..I don't need to go out to be entertained..I'm open minded and live life with honor, respect and honesty....A fun & positive guy that is full of the perfect amount of crap..So I won't give or take any...View my photos, you'll know my history..Now, it's time for a future...
..To me a beautiful woman has a sweet heart and a kind soul..Quicker to say and do something nice before something mean..A woman that has an opinion and isn't afraid to share it..ANY QUESTIONS, JUST ASK

I've always liked if a woman is bi.. seems so natural to me and I feel comfortable with a woman who is bi or likes that I love to share with her and so I need to be with a woman who would appreciate this.

We both could be a very nice bi couple together...and
yet we would be there for each other 1on1 relationship with love and commitment.

Have you ever felt that you could share your secret with a man... that you're bi.. and that you'd like a man who can share his with you too?

It's exciting.. cause it brings out the best in us both for each other... the beauty of being bi is that we can be hetero with the rest of the world and share ourselves with each other in special ways that you and I know will enhance our relationship
and make us both very happy.

So are you ready?

Some people refer to me as mr.oralguy because I'm so oral in my private life... and I need Ms.Oralgirl in my life. I've always loved when I am with a bi woman cause you can't be bi unless you enjoy sex and cause you like being with a man and a woman but you want to be in a loving relationship with a
man.

If this is you... this might be a good match

Be on the lookout: Intelligent and hysterical 30-40 year old woman who answers to open communication. She was last imagined in the Tampa Bay area with a stable job and a friendly smile. She is traveling with one piece of carry-on luggage that fits beneath the seat in front of Her.

How does one write a summary about themselves? My life story is still progressing. Each day moving towards the conclusion.

Basically I just don't want to do this. I joined this website initially as joke, and I am not completely sure why I am still on it. Possibly for the chance that there is someone out there who questions it themselves.

I really don't like to write about myself id rather say it in words, but i think this is an exception. I was born in Russia came here at 11 go back there every summer. Go to college wanna major in criminal justice, no I don't wanna be a cop. I'm kinda shy around new people, I really hate cocky people who think they are best from the best. I can listen to pretty much anything as long it has a good beat(excluding that devil worshiping music they call hard rock and cowboy stuff) Alcohol sometimes = fun, sometimes just a disaster, depends on the company you are in. Wanna know more message me.

Busy like the rest of us , I love to laugh and have fun. Goofing off at the shop with the guys, playing pool, air hockey, or fooseball at a bar, it's all good with me. Although it seems to change when someone special comes along. Now I don't mind at all, but often the lady friend in my life will kept me all to herself.
Suppose I'm from the shorter side of the gene pool, I only seem to notice when I come across someone shorter, I've found myself thinking," Aw, look at the cute little man." Of course I came to terms with that some time ago. Most women do seem to prefer a man at least a little taller. Well hell I would want a tall handsome man if I was a woman.
I do find myself seeking out someone on a little more of a conscience level now? Sure I've had a few relationships but they've always just seem to happen in the past? Out and about we seem to play this rock -paper-scissors game with each other.

I believe in romance. Do you? I like surprises...to give and receive. I like to live joyfully and am looking for a strong, confident man to join my journey. I am tall...5'10" and a stylish, thick chick. Some say BBW...I say I just work with what I got. I want a man that prefers the fullness and curves of a good woman and will celebrate them. Warning! I am intelligent and seek the same! You must have common sense, too. I know a little about a lot of things...actually enough to be dangerous; damn impressive at the very least! I have a wicked sense of humor, am a gourmet cook, and love to laugh. You can find me performing random acts of kindess or a practical joke. I am child-free and am proud owner of the cutest and coolest dog ever! I enjoy sports, movies, music, dining, dancing, reading, comedy, concerts, fishing, boating, traveling, card and board games which are all better with an ice cold beer or a good glass of wine. I change my hair style frequently and am comfortable in flip flops or a cocktail dress. I am looking for a diverse, warm, secure man, 35-48 who enjoys life and is optimistic. I am a young forty-something and you need to keep up.
(Fat bashers, married or "separated" men, as well as those looking for hookups need not waste your time.)

I think I have a pretty good sense of humor. I have a had a pretty good life. I enjoy all kinds of music and movies. I love a good cheeseburger. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Question ~~ How much do any of us really want someone else in our lives? I am guilty of this at times too, but it seems that we say we are looking for someone to share our lives with...but are we afraid, getting to set in our ways, looking for perfection (not gonna happen) or something. What do you think it is? I like getting to know someone a little through a few emails and then meeting-I'm not much for talking a lot on the phone. It is so much easier to get a feel for what someone is like when we can see one another. A warm smile, hearing a person laugh (or not), see whether they are more outgoing or shy, etc. is important. Although my objective is to eventually find a nice guy, I also cherish friendships. I love my friends and they mean so much to me. If this makes any sense to you, drop me a line.

About me-
I am a pretty easy going person...fairly happy. I am a communicator and like that in others, but I'm better in person I think. Friends would say that I have a tendency to be silly; I love to joke, laugh and like others who enjoy having fun as well. It doesn't have to cost a thing to enjoy good times with someone. I'm a big kid I suppose. I'm artistic..love taking photos, sketching, painting, etc. I love the outdoors; although I like a good movie, I sometimes find it hard to sit through one. I'd rather go to the pool, the beach, play a game of pool or play tag. < just kidding sort of.

I love to hang out with friends and i like to go movies, the beach. like to bowling, shoot pool. i like to take walks, camping.

Thirty-something cycling bum with no discernable qualities seeks non-annoying hottie with low standards and bad eyesight for a short-term, meaningless relationship. Not interested in just â??friendship,â?? I have plenty of friends. But who knows, maybe love or *@#%?@!??. We can enjoy romantic weekends at my cabin (after I go cycling with my friends) swilling margaritas and reading Bukowski. Must be comfortable with yourself, have a strong sense of self-identity and be willing to change the things about you that I donâ??t like. Psychos need not apply. Nice car a plus.

I am attracted to only bbw/ssbbw's. I have many many interests, am quite an accomplished cook. Adventurous, playful, open minded, think outside the box, a leader not a follower. I have no dependents , and as such am open to relocating anywhere for the right one.

I love music, video games, anime, and animals. I enjoy watching many types of movies.

Alright, so a lot of people are always saying I need to tell more about myself, so since I have nothing better to do with my time at 1:34 am, I guess I'll do just that.

I'm a child at heart, and I never want that to change. I can be serious when I need to be, but otherwise I'm just looking to have a lot of fun and enjoy the best parts of life. My friends tell me I'm the best listener when it comes to talking about their problems and tend to come to me for everything, they say I'd make a great psychologist cause I can usually solve their problems and if not I always seem to cheer them up. I can be one of the most loyal and trusting friends you have, and I only ask for the same in return.

I love animals a lot. I have a Siberian Husky and two Ferrets, plus my mom has a Yorkshire Terrier. I've always had animals every since I was a baby, and I can't imagine life without them. I'd love to be able to have horses again, I really miss being able to go out and ride.

For those of you into anime like I am, more power to you! Lol. I really enjoy watching anime a lot, its got to be the kid in me lol. I've watched many different kinds and love to many to start naming them off, but you can always ask me if you'd like. Yes, I have been to anime conventions. Yes, I did have a lot of fun and I loved it very much. Yes, I will continue going to them every time I have a chance. Anime is a very big part of my life and is being coming more so over the years rather than less, so its something that I prefer my close friends and potential partners to have an interest in. Also, I don't just cosplay to conventions, I'll cosplay anywhere I can lol. Like Disney for instance. I just recently went to Disney with a group of friends for the Halloween event and we went as Kingdom Hearts characters and had a kick ass time! Next up, Disney's Christmas event! Rock on! Ok, that about covers that lol.

For those of you interested in video games, yes I do play some, no I'm not a big gamer. I mostly play simulation, though I've played racing and fighting games and kind of like those too. I love DDR and Karaoke Revolution, and yes I've played Guitar Hero and I'm alright at it. I love the game Rock Band, but I havent played in forever. No I've never played Halo or WoW, and no I don't want to. My fav games would have to be Kingdom Hearts, I love them a lot!

I don't really care for meeting people in person right away. I prefer to get to know you quite a bit first and then we'll see where it goes from there.

Ok so, I dunno about the rest of you, but I've noticed something about OKC's matching thing. I tend to find that a lot of guys I find with like a high matching percentage and stuff don't really have anything in common with me what-so-ever. Not to bash anyone who has messaged me, everyone I messaged back is very nice and I do have a few interests in common with most of you.

Also, I seem to be having quite a few people expecting me to find interest in them as a possible boyfriend, and since its apparently not clear enough already, I'm NOT looking for a boyfriend. I'm only here to meet new friends and that's it. I don't even start considering people for that kind of prospect until I've known them IN PERSON for awhile. Also, I'm leaning towards wanting a girlfriend right now. Preferably one that would love to cosplay and go to conventions with me. ;)

Strong silent type looking for a friend & eventually a lover.
