I am looking for:
|
Hmm, I've actually sorta answered this question somewhere else so excuse the copy and pasting:
Hmm, my deal makers. . . I’ll list eleven. Obviously, there must be physical attraction. Though I’m not really going to focus on that since I find different combinations of things attractive so there’s no single body type/features that I can list.
1. At least 5'4" tall.
2. Gives good hugs. Snuggling/cuddling must also be included.
3. Likes to play with my hair (or lack thereof).
4. Has something that she’s passionate about that she is working on or working towards.
5. Can spend time with me without needing the entire time to be filled with conversation.
6. When we have discussion or arguments, is willing to consider alternate points of view and amend ones own if it is demonstrated that she’s wrong. However, if she is right, she should not back down and just agree with me “to keep the peace”.
7. Has just as much fun making up after arguments as I do. Willing to bribe me with physical affection if necessary :)
8. Has a life. IE, does not spend all free time in apt doing nothing. Has other activities in her life than just me.
9. Can cook. I can cook too, but sometimes I don’t feel like it.
10 patible sense of humor. My humor is a blend of sarcasm and nerdy humor. My fav comedian is currently Lewis Black. If you can get down with this, we’re good.
11. Someone I can be myself with and talk to for hours. It won’t necessarily be an unbroken string of conversation, but there have been very few people in my life with whom I could hang out with for hours at a time and we never really run out of stuff to talk about.
Conversations are naturally filled with pauses and silent periods where we both process the info we’ve shared and alter our train of thought.

My funniest life experience:
|
So, I'm on my way to having lunch with my best friend's parents - we kinda have this tradition of eating lunch/dinner with them on Sunday. I still go even when Nate's out of town.
But anyway, I'm driving there from the engineering building where I'd been working on a take-home final and I see a guy running really fast in the bus lane. I'm thinking, wow, that's pretty weird, I wonder why he's doing that.
Well, a couple seconds later, I notice that he's actually chasing after a tiny dog. Unfortunately, it looks like the guy is running out of breath. Luckily, oncoming traffic seems to be slowing down - at least so the dog can safely escape.
A few blocks later, I see who I guess is the owner of the dog (which by the way did not have a leash on). She looks like she too has been running, though is currently out of breath and looking very distraught about the situation.
I'm guessing she was holding her dog and it jumped out of her arms or got away. I bet "fluffy" has probably never done something like that before :)

Cool Movies:
|
|
This list could go on forever:
Boondock Saints, Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind, Leon The Professional, Chaos, From Hell, Kill Bill, A Scanner Darkly. . .
I'll say I really like movies that make you think, ones that evoke deep emotion, ones that explore the range of human motivations and reasoning. Psychological thrillers tend to do that pretty well.
|
|
I am looking for a personality like:
|
|
I'm a pretty good listener and I'm pretty intuitive (for a guy). That tends to make people feel pretty comfortable about talking to me. I'm not easily rattled or shocked and can be relatively non-judgmental so that helps.
|
|
Willingness to meet others from boM:
|
|
I'm looking to actually meet people. I'm already a member of plenty of other forums that are focused around my various interests where I can have conversations with people that are just for fun and stay mostly online.
Have I met anyone off the internet before - yeah, I've met a few.
|
|
Are you ready to start from scratch?
|
|
Starting from scratch. . . I'm not adverse to it. Over the next couple years, my time for things outside of work is going to diminish a lot. So, a long term relationship (in the short term. . ironically enough) would be made up of sparse but intense interactions.

My typical day:
|
|
This is tricky. There is no one perfect date experience. I can give examples of what would be a good date. For example, I recently heard about a billiards place on the southside. I sometimes chill out at bars in that area. It would be cool to check out the place, play a few games of pool, then walk along the southside stopping by a couple spots to grab a few drinks and maybe some food if we're hungry.
Another cool "date" would be to take someone shopping with me. Though relatively rare, there are times that I appear in a mall to look for either a cool new book that I won't be able to find at a library, sunglasses (because cheap ones are just that. . cheap), or some cool electronic gadget (like a cell phone) that I want to play around with in the store. You can't help but window shop while you're out and that could be fun.
Pretty much, a good date is one where the other person can join me in doing something relatively interesting that I'd likely have done either by myself or with friends. Then, we can both get to know each other in a relatively informal setting and we can get a much better idea of the things we like, find interesting, common interests, etc.

My Wish List Includes:
|
|
Things I'm scared of. . . walking on a tightrope a few hundred feet in the air across two buildings seems pretty scary to me. Other things that used to scare me no longer do so. Like coming up with original ideas for research or financial success if/when I go into business for myself (or with a group of my friends). I think it's because my experience has been that I've always done well in the things that I'm passionate about. I can't cl a 100% success rate, but overall I'm happy with the way things have worked out.
