Right off the bat, I actually don’t hate my life. Just aspects of it that can easily be changed. I actually have an awesome life that I wouldn’t give up. But though a series of events this morning has really highlighted a massive shift that needs to happen emotionally and in the health departments.
The calibre of woman I have let into my life has a lot to be desired. I’ve been the safe bet and because of that I tend to date people who are a little lost. And they believe that by dating a safe bet their life will magically turn around.
Now why does this happen. Well physically I’m overweight. So I check all the boxes except I’m fat. I’m not being hard on myself, I’ve gotten confirmation on it before.
So today is day one. Losing weight is going to be the easy part.
Now you’ve read this far. So I will answer who the hell I am.
I’ve somehow through hard work built a life that is pretty epic. I was the kid who was lazy in school and would be a solid C student. I would crack jokes to make up for my stupidity. What I’ve learned later in my life that my learning disability that I thought I conquered is actually something that can’t be fixed. My brain is wired differently. I can’t learn conventionally. I learn by doing.
As I type that I laugh. I need to learn how to date better by doing. Wow, eureka happens in real time!
But I digressed. So after being lost in my 20s I was able to find a career path that I excelled in. The past decade has been amazing. I joke I fell into what I do but really a series of events paired with luck and hard work lands me to there I am today.
I love what I do. I get to travel, have fun hobbies, meet awesome people and relax when I want. I work from home allowing me a great work/life balance.
My friends are awesome too. A small grouping of great people. I just got off a call with one who gave me some great advice in what I’m typing right now. They all want the best for me. And equally I want the best for them.
A little about how I look because attraction is something important to me so I understand how it would be for you.
I am white, very tall, big frame that is about 40lb over weight, short hair that has thinned on top and I dress like a token white guy.
Now my plan for the next 6months till Christmas.
-eat clean -5x a week workout -walk 20k steps a day -no dating bullshit will be taken (or given) -change of location (either in Toronto or beyond)
What I hope to achieve -healthy fitness level -a new hobby (thinking tennis) -someone cool in my life that has potential to lead to marriage and possibly a kid
I mainly typed this out as a way to get my thoughts in order. But if you like that I’ve said feel free to message and tell me about yourself. I’d only be interested in a walking date or a coffee off the bat.
