- Ladies, please don't hold my using the anonymous service against me. I'm
- just being cautious. If you reply to my anonymous ID, your ID will be
- protected, too. If you're more daring than me, you can include your real
- email ID when you reply. I won't hide my identity from you, but didn't
- want to post it on this group. Please post a message on soc.penpals if
- you have trouble reaching me.

- I'm a little gunshy about trying this, but willing to see how it
- goes. I'm interested in chatting with any women online who'd
- like to get acquainted this way, but I confess I most hope to
- hear from people in the Ohio and SE Michigan area. I wouldn't
- rule out getting together with someone further away if things
- really clicked. I'm ready to work on establishing a lifelong
- relationship.
-
- Forgive the seeming lack of humility as I try to tell you enough
- about myself to pique the interest of, at first, a (hopefully)
- special email pal. I am an intelligent, sensitive, yet easy-
- going 33-year-old guy with small town roots who enjoys visiting
- the city. I live in northern Ohio, closer to Ann Arbor than to
- Cleveland. I'm a romantic who loves to take in a sunset and am
- amazed at those who never notice them. I tend to be somewhat shy
- especially in larger groups, yet have no difficulty in such
- situations when performing my role as a professor, administrator
- and social science researcher. Although I have done well enough
- professionally, I tend to be a bit self-effacing about those
- accomplishments.
-
- I'm interested in politics and world events. I'm a Democrat
- who's conservative financially but a liberal on many social
- issues. I don't go to church as often as I should, but am proud
- of being raised in a congregational protestant church. I am
- always interested in self-improvement and in learning about new
- things, a lifelong ambition. Classical, new age, jazz and
- classic rock music are favorites.
-
- I consider myself physically attractive and very concerned
- (though not obsessed) with physical fitness and health. I enjoy
- bicycling, golf, tennis, some running, occasional racquetball,
- and spectator sports (especially baseball, some hockey and
- football). I like to kid around and have a good sense of humor
- when with friends. While I generally stay away from most network
- television fare (except The Simpsons, Star Trek TNG, and Home
- Front), I enjoy meaningful movies and comedies (Woody Allen films
- are among my favorites and I live for the day when Major League
- becomes a reality).
-
- I tend to be (too?) selective in the women I date. I am not
- involved with anyone at the present time. I would like to meet
- an intelligent (and preferably well educated), sophisticated,
- optimistic, outgoing, self-confident, independent yet supportive
- woman who is also interested in eventually having children. A
- sense of humor and a ready smile are huge pluses. Because I hope
- to remain physically active as long as I live, a good companion
- will also be interested in sports (see above). I'd like to meet
- a woman who has met her key professional goals and is ready to
- turn her sights on starting a family fairly soon. Because I can
- be shy at times, meeting a reserved, more serious (lacking a
- sense of humor) woman usually doesn't work out. I guess I
- believe that, oftentimes, opposites attract.
-
- Well, that's more than enough about me! Let's hear about you.
- I'm looking forward to making some new friends.
