No, he has photos. On his boat. Or his friend's boat. Or something. Not sure.

He sounds like one of the guys phmh dated (no offense, phmh-- you just have the best dating stories ever, and I admire you for your courage and tenacity in the scary world of dating)!

Yeah, he mentions that he can have a fun date at Home Depot. Could turn out to be a Cheesy Nut Man.

But it's so purple prose-y that it raises red flags for me. It feels manipulative to me.

Yes, that's exactly what it is. If this were written as some article or blog post it would be entertaining and certainly worth the read. However, to post in his OLD profile comes off as trying sell himself with his jaded-yet-sincere tone.

It is well written. Please remember though to carefully craft what he wrote took time and purpose. This is not some extemporaneous musing on the challenges of OLD. It is part of his profile which is intended to draw attention and attract others. His "wit and wisdom" are the peacock's plume of his online profile.

Waaay too much like something my ex would write - very proud of his wordcrafting and ability to sound like a deep thinker. I'd run from this just based on my own experience, not necessarily because the guy warrants it. But he does sound awfully full of himself.

I'm done here; sick of 2 x 4s
