!!!!UPDATE!!!!
Okay- I sometimes see people going off or ranting on their pages and have always thought it was funny, but now I see why they do it... it seems like some people don't see my dating section, or don't read it, plus there is some stuff that is not in there. So, basically here's my rants:
1. Don't come at me in a vulgar way. I'm not gonna get on web cam and pull out a titty or any sh*t like that. Women that do that kinda stuff are desperate for a guy's attention. I get enough attention without having to go there, and even if I didn't, that is not the kind of attention I want anyway. Also, don't start asking me all kinds of personal sex questions. No, I'm not a virgin or a prude, but I think sex is something you share with certain people, not everyone in the world. If that's what you're looking for, fine, but go find one of those silly b*tches, because that is not my style. Don't try to convince me by saying "we're grown"- that is the stupidest argument ever- because if anything, by being "grown" you should have more sense and use better judgement.
2. No, I don't have kids. It is not because I hate kids. It is not because I can't. It is because I want a certain life, and that life does not include me having to chase down a "baby daddy" for money for pampers. So unlike some people, I have actually opted to wait until I find the right person for all that... imagine that...
3. If you live out of town and are interested in us ever meeting, don't even think I'm going to come to you first. Maybe down the road, but not initially. I'm old-fashioned. I want to be courted, wooed, whatever you want to call it. So if you're that interested, you'll make the effort. If not, I don't want to be bothered anyway. Plus, to top it off, my sense of direction and driving skills are the worst...
4. Don't get me in some conversation and talk about how you like an independent woman, how things should be 50/50, or any of that other bullsh*t. I am very independent, but I am not one of these "I can do it all by myself, I don't need a man" type of women. If I have a man in my life, I expect certain things from him. That does not make me a gold-digger, lazy, or without goals, and if that is your thinking, then we aren't right for each other, anyway. To me, a real man should want to be the protector and provider for a woman, and the woman the nurturer. If you disagree, that's cool, you're just not my type. Go find you one of these so-called "modern women" for all that. When I do choose to be with one person, I give 100%, and trust me, will probably be very different from any woman you have ever dealt with. I'm very open and honest, I'm not the type to get p*ssed off at you and not say anything about it, but blow up two weeks later about something that has nothing to do with what I'm actually even mad about. I can sometimes be a little too blunt, but you won't have to mind read, and you'll know where you stand with me. I don't want to be the man in a relationship- not saying I don't want respect, but I'm not going to confront you in front of your family, embarrass you in public, talk sh*t to you in front of your friends, or any of that other stuff that women these days think is cute. I think that kind of stuff is totally out of line and tacky. I love to support and spoil my man- just not financially. Yeah, yeah, I know it's 2011, but that's the way I feel, period.
5. I do smoke, and I do drink. I cuss, I gamble. Not to excess, but, yeah, I do it. So if that's a problem, sorry. I do, however, know right time/right place. Like I might say stuff and do things around my friends, but I'm not going to do the same things in front of your grandmother or coworkers. I know how to act in public.
Now that I've gotten that off my chest, back to business... (see below)
I have recently expanded my client base to include music-related business. I usually do more corporate work, so I'm trying to drum up more "fun" business. I have some examples of my work posted in my photos. I have over 10 years experience in graphic design, writing, marketing, and copy writing, and have won several awards for my work, including a gold Addy. If you are interested, drop me a line. I am also open to picking up more corporate customers.
