I'm a healthy older nerd, raised on punk rock and the banter of hair salons from Long Beach to the PNW, where I learned a lot of my social skills. As a child of divorce, I got along with women much more than men, and lost out on a lot of the traditional male hobbies growing up, so I had to figure out a lot on my own. Thankfully it made me very self sufficient and allowed me to learn how to think and learn for myself.

My hobbies are kind of all over the map. Driving is a big one. Not exactly racing per se, just being in my car and going wherever I want. I love long road trips. I also golf, play basketball, video games, write, sing, play tabletop games (MTG, classic card games i.e. poker/rummy/cribbage, board games of all kinds, tabletop RPGs), bar hopping in new cities, billiards. I'm a massive movie geek, and I love finding new music.

I'm a pragmatist, yet I enjoy challenging myself for the sake of it when things get a little boring. I'll use a map, but only to find my way after a detour. I'm a competition junky, but put a lot of energy into sportsmanship, and am addicted to being a coach when the stakes are low and I'm on top. On the flip-side of that I enjoy getting my ass handed to me and always come back for more. I learn by doing, and losing is a part of winning.

Recently, my dating life has become pretty stagnant, as I'm looking for something specific, and don't want to waste anymore time on people with whom I can't see a future. Because I want it all. I want marriage. I want kids. Even if they're not mine. With the right person that shit just doesn't matter.

So here it is. I'm looking for a spicy little princess with sharp claws, a good heart, and someone who still craves submission from time to time. I won't lie. I have a dominant side. And I think a good partner for me wants the push and pull. Show me the sharp tongue so I can “retaliate”. Pick on me so I can pick on you. Let's challenge each other. Build each other up. Find each other's soft spots. Find trust. Find respect. And then take over the world.
