I like to go to parties but also hang out with a few friends. It just depends what mood im in. I don't know if I'm looking for a long term relationship or just some new friends, I guess I'll find out.

I love sports both watching and playing, i love pretty much any kind of music, i love to travel when i have opportunities and the beach to me is the most amazing place on earth.

I try to live a christian life. I prefer quiet nights at home to partying out on the town. I try to go fishing when I can. I enjoy working on my house on weekends. I'm a pretty laid back person.

I love to meet people, love to dance and go to rock concerts.
Watching the drag races is another fav.
I can't stand drama, I believe in karma, and honesty is the only way to go. I wonder...is there truely an honest guy out there ? I've just relocated from the Fort Lauderdale, FL area unto which I was there for 30 years. I don't think this town is actually for me, but we'll see...a new adventure....

Hi. My name's Nick, and I'm an aspiring writer/artist/film-maker. I do like to party and go out a couple times a week, but I'm mostly a nerdy creative type. I love reading, everything from dense literary tomes to mainstream superhero comics. I'm a film freak, and to a lesser degree, a music geek. I'm bisexual, although lately I've been leaning more to the gay side. Still, I'd definitely be open to meeting some nice girls on here. Heck, I'll take all the friends I can get...y'know, in case there's a rumble.

I enjoy being outside fishing, camping, walking the beach; or inside cooking, watching a movie and hanging out with friends and family.
I'm looking for a person who likes to do the same.
I strive to live by the golden rule and live a good Christian life.
I'm a single mom and work as a local realtor.
If you're that type who wants someone fun and affectionate with a big heart, then please look me up.

A fun-loving, laid-back guy with a lust for life. I have a smile that never completely fades, and spitefull eyes. I'm a preacher's son, so I know how to have fun without getting drunk or stoned. (I think I'm kinda alone in that thinking around here.) I work in computers, draw, paint, sculpt, lift weights, jog, read a lot, and like to eat out and get out as much as possible.

Hi! I'm Jamie and I recently just found out that my lame bestfriend is on this site <<coveman77>> so my main mission is to embarrass the shit out of him :) which won't be that hard muhahahaha. Hmm a little about me I am originally from Texas and I recently graduated from UT woohoo Hook'em baby! I majored in fashion...and I bet you can guess what I'm doing as a career? I'm doing modeling right now and I absolutely love it, you know a little of everything swimsuits, lingerie and couture. I also love outdoor activities being at the beach, going to football games (The Saints and UT are my team) and snowboarding! I also have a weakness for shopping though and love laying out at the beach got to love the sunshine state baby! I'm also a big fan of yoga and kickboxing so I'm pretty sure I could kick someones ass :). I'm really not looking for dates on here but more to harass my bestie ;) but I'll be happy to definitely make some friends on here though.

I moved from ga to destin about a year ago. I am currently running my family bed and breakfast . I am also working on the fla realeastate lincense.

I enjoy the easy bicycling, beach when its not 110 out.
I like barbuqueing,going out doing fun activities.
and whatever I am easy. I also enjoy getting away for the weekend ocassinaly.

I am looking for a long term relationship with the right woman. I am caring, loyal, a great listener and love life. I am trustworthy and true to my partner. I don't play games and I hate drama. I want to meet and be with my best friend.

I enjoy being an open-minded person who loves to listen to different points of view, and good stories. I am happy staying at home watching a movie or all night at the clubs. I have a three-year-old daughter, who I am very proud of; she is the love of my life. I am looking for a woman who loves to cuddle, and take walks along the beach. I am interested in short and long term relationships, but not marriage. I love to express myself through my own poetry. I also enjoy listening to all types of music, reading, and the going to the movies. I like to watch action movies as well as the romantic genre. I love to cook, and this may sound funny, but I enjoy washing dishes.
My work history includes four years of military service, and fifth teen years of over the road truck driving, among other occupations. I am a security guard at a beautiful resort area in the Florida panhandle, now.
What am I looking for in a woman? I tend to accept people as they are. I do not expect to find the perfect match on cupid. I am looking for a friend or friends to chat with and date, but not to get serious. I was marriage for seventeen years, to my first love, in fact, I am still in love with her, and I do not think we ever grew apart. So ladies if you are looking for someone to hang out with, and or chat with letâ??s do it, I am sure you will find me to be a good listener, and an interesting soul.

Hey everybody, i'm here to have a little fun with some girls, i'm not really looking for anything serious. I like sports, music, watching movies and i specially like girls. Let's talk about anything you want, i like trying new things.

I can not speak to animals and have zero interest in chasing storms, but I do enjoy well made Tequila. I am a monolith that still likes to read books and no apologies for that. I like crazy little hole-in-the-wall ethnic food places, esoteric and well made films, live music and travel among other things. I try to keep an "open mind" but then again...

Wow its been a long time since i updated this!

i guess i should let you know what I'm looking for and what my standards are. Relationship wise I'm not really look for something to serious just casual dating, but if i do meet someone great then of course I'd continue the relationship and hope it grows. i don't smoke and its one of the most repulsive things a girl can do in my opinion. that said I'm not going to exclude you because of it, it's just that i could never have a serious long term relationship with someone who smokes anything. If your trying to quit then i support you.

Since I've started college I've been into a lot of new things, unfortunately i don't always have time for them. I've really enjoy learning how to dance, and rock wall climbing, and I've even tried a little yoga.... not so great at that last one.

Feel me and you will know my spirit, for i am one with all. I walk the web of life and learn the lessons of each thread on which i am. I look, I listen, I learn. Mine is not to judge but to know and understand. Each of us hold a shard of the crystal, and when (not if) we unite, the wholeness, the Oneness, of the that Crystal will again be known. My mantra is no labels, yet i am known by many names, Fynn McKewl, Gray Cloud, Roger Nobles; to quote an old gospel song "This Earth is Not my Home" yet for a time it is my residence. If a lable must be used i prefer Spirtual

I am a person simply looking for some friends. After going for college for awhile and loosing track of people from high school things are starting to become rather mundane.

I love to solve problems, whether it be mechanical, software, relational, etc. Unfortunately I tend to pile up too many problems at once out of boredom then realizing later that it is impossible to manage all of them. I highly value loyalty and mutual respect; which unfortunately puts me at odds with egotistical, self-centered people at times.

MBTI Type: INFP

hey my names erik i am a very out going person like to have fun hangout with friends, i love to go to the beach and play sports. i am a nice and kind guy. i like to meet new people. i am looking for a girl who like to just have fun and is just a fun person to be around.

I would like to find someone that shares my same interest, the beach, snuggled on the couch watching a good movie, nice dinners, travel, or just lay back.

For everyone whose looking at my page and thinking, Oh. Just another 18 year old. I have an apartment. I go to college with a major in acting and a minor in english. I work at a grocery store and im a waiter and delivery boy. I love going out. Movies, Eating, Dancing. And anything else you wanna know about me just ask.

Just checking out the online situation... Talk to me if you want to know details.

Hey guys My names Matt Dlabal I live in Shalimar Florida. Im almost 22. Yay!!! I love music its a great stress reliever. I'm looking for someone that's calm and not crazy or abusive. I'm an Aquarius I'm pretty shy. But once you win my heart I will always be there for you through thick and thin. I try my best to stay out of trouble not too much though.

Straight to the point; I love music, all kinds of music but have a horrible memory for remembering what movie I just sat through. I'm very strong willed however I falter when I let someone into my life. I'm devoted to myself, as in I'm going through a divorce and have lived in misery for a few years. I'm not bitter, I choose never to be bitter; however I'm cautious and have a vested interested in my happiness.
On that note, I have a tendency to make sure others are taken care of before myself and typically can only be happy/content unless you are.
I love nature, art, photography, relaxing, going out and listening to live music. Not into the club scence, I appreciate maturity with playfulness. I crave romance and adventure - even if it only results in friendship. I'm not very religious, however very receptive to others' choices and respect others' decisions highly. I love to live life to the fullest, however am afraid of heights, insanely ticklish but will kick and scream, love to laugh. Not at all afraid to get my hands dirty, however will dress up to go to the grocery store. I'm a walking contradiction and in love with it. I love animals but not enough to become a vegetarian. I am not interested in Country, however old school Country and modern folk/singer/songwriters stuff and jamm bands are my current vogue de genre. I'm scatterbrained - did you catch that ;-)

I've lived in FWB now for over 15 yrs. I am from Ohio originally and came here to escape the weather and look for a better life. It's been a great time so far, but I am now looking for the rest of the story. I've been married , now divorced, and I want to meet someone who I can share this crazy thing called life with again. I am not in a hurry to serttle down, b ut Ia m not afraid of it either. So if your intelligent, funny and loving then I want to talk to you.

i love going to concerts. i love the beach. i love traveling. im shy at first but soon after everyone usually likes me. i try to be honest because trust is key.

Whats up Im just a young guy whos trying to meet some new people and maybe a nice girl if things work out. I go to OWC and I work full-time. My favorite things to do are read and think about what chairs really are. I read some, write, and spend a decent amount of time playing music. What I really like in women is a sense of humor and intelligence. Always remember " The measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at time of challenge and controversy."

I tend to go deep pretty quickly. I'll try to make this brief....I enjoy everything from a stimulating conversation to a very stenuous workout. You can find me in the mix or on the sidelines. I like to listen and share and feel I've a kind heart. I get really lucky. Lots of stuff happens to and around me and I tend to not only come out unscathed, but often times better off. I really dig animals and they reciprocate. I can be super adventurous but also enjoy lounging. I've been exposed to lots of things. Very little scares me although I know it when I see it. I've traveled since I hit 20. I've lived all over the US but was raised here in Destin and it's where I reside currently. I backpacked thruogh Europe for
2 yrs in '93. It was absolutely unbelievable! I enjoy everything I do and do just about everything. I once hiked the Grand Canyon(albeit illegally) in one day! I've surfed waves from the Canary Islands to Tortolla. I've been surfing since I was 6. I once
competed in an in-line skate race on the Indy 500 track (stepping foot on that "oval" was outrageous!). As you may notice, I'm an adventure junkie. I'm certified in SCUBA, certified Personal Trainer, LMT, love to cook(& eat), and just an all around cool MF(I think). Having three older brothers has taught me how to count my blessings. I've done lots of counting.

and a whole host of other stuff too long to list.

I am passionate and caring, but not enabling. I have two jobs, running a mental health facility and working part time with kids. I have two grown daughters who live out of state and have a dog and a cat. I am busy, but want to share with someone special who allows me to give to them and gives back. I am looking for someone who can be as important to me as I can be to them, someone looking for the possibility of a real, long-term relationship, and someone who understands that relationships take work, none of them are perfect, but we wake up every day willing to work some more because that person is that important. Sorry, but if you do not live in my immediate area, please do not message me. Thanks.

Hello! Iâ??m a single, attractive 41 year-old Italian. Originally, Iâ??m from up state New York but have lived in Orlando for several years. I have short brunette hair with hazel-green eyes, 5â??1â?? and am a petite woman of 86 lbs.
I enjoy spending quality time with my friends and family, listening to all kinds of music, casually partying, reading, shopping, sleeping on rainy days, curling up on the couch to watch a good movie, going to out to dinner, movies, bars, etc. Because I walk with crutches, I live with my parents. However, I live an independent lifestyle. Iâ??m a normal, honest, thoughtful, open-minded, loving and fun girl with an amazing sense of humor who can provide great company.

I would like to find some new and fun ways of spending some time with people that compliment my personality! I am interested in friendships or significant relationships. I would like to meet someone who is mature, honest, open-minded, and has a great sense of humor. It would be wonderful to meet someone who can provide quality company. But most importantly, I would appreciate not being judged immediately because I walk with crutches or live with my parents.

Hey Im amanda..nickname mandy. I just moved here to the states from a seaside town called Weymouth in England ..Typical British accent :) I LOVE ANIME!!! I live to write to my hearts content and have written two books myself. Would love to publish them :) I love to go out and have fun....like going to the beach or relaxing with someone ...watching the day go by.I love God, He has done many good things for me in my life and i owe him big time lol ... I love music! I play the piano and acoustic/electric guitar ( and getting better). I love to visit new places and sit on a bench somewhere remote with my ipod. I love to paint and go bowling or to the movies xx I love poetry and calligraphy.

Although I lived in Japan for 17 years I am loving being in Florida.
I am adventurous, bookstore peruser, cuddly canoeing cutie. Drug and drama-free, easy going. Forgetful lassie from PA. Gainfully employed, healthy and humorous, intelligent, independent Japanophile. Kissing-krazy, laughter loving, movie-watching, monogomous, non-prejudiced and oh-so passionately playful, quirky, responsibly respectful, smiling world traveller. Uniquely, very wide-footed, yearning zealot of long-term love!!!!

not much to say except i'm laid back and i'm into my hobbies. I'm looking for someone who wants to settle down and is able to travel because i am currently looking for a second place in the mountains of pennsylvania for my summer home. I will be spending my winters in florida and i will be back and forth in the summer. I'm tired of women who play games. I have alot of love to give and I am a kindhearted person. I am often misunderstood because most people dont give of themselves without selfish purposes so when I commit selfless acts people assume it is for selfish purposes. My only selfish purpose is that it makes me happy to see the people I care about be happy.

Singal looking for a great guy. Live in altamont springs Florida I'm 26. Like to stay busy by working out hanging out with friends working on my art work and taking pictures.

I am loyal, very sensative, and caring. I am full of energy and always have to be moving. Very easy to talk to and very open minded. I will always help people out if i have the ability. I do not like violence. I love fishing with other people. I love to make people laugh. I don't like most rap. I have been fixing computers since 3rd grade.

Honestly I consider myself more romantic then other guys. If someone had a social or emotional problem I would do my best to fix it or at least make them feel better. Helping people makes me feel better about myself. I love to make people laugh.

My friends consider me uncorruptable, and they are unable to pressure me into anything i dont want to do. I dont intend on changing anything about it.

Because I believe in honesty, I'd like to say that I am in the process of a divorce. I know for some that may not be OK, but if it's no problem than I welcome you to read more about me. I'm hoping to meet a friend first and hopefully one day she'll be my special lady. I am no player; never have and never will be. I love to landscaping and creating places to escape to in the yard. I find the outdoors, such as the beach (#1) or in the woods, as the best medicine for the soul. I love to travel, so much so, I get excited as a child going to Disney for the first time! I do have a fault or two. First, I'm a big Michigan football and Detroit Red Wing fan. Ok, there's a third, I love cars. And hopefully she'll be part of it too...I'll be a fan of your team if you'll be one of mine. Seriously, none of these passions would ever get in the way my love for my lady. I aspire to live life to the fullest and seeking share it. I am a caring and sensitive guy who thinks screwing around is the most dishonorable thing to do. Chivalry is not dead in my book; in fact, I love to treat a beautiful lady as such. Yes ladies we do exist. I cherish a lady who isnâ??t afraid to tear up watching movies and show/share her emotions. But, at the same time she's funny, full of life and appreciates who she is. I enjoy classic rock, some modern rock and smooth jazz. I know some of you lost hope that there aren't many, if any, good honest, loyal and caring men left. But, please know I am who I say I am. I hope we meet soon.

As far as me i see myself as a person whom wishes to solve the worlds problems and seeks peace at all times , i like to see people as they are as a blank slate and i don,t judge , I am a thinker and love Stephen king and most of all working and building anything by hand , if its broke i like to try and make it better , Love the out doors plants trees , and growing plants and trees , love walikng in the rain and i like writing poetry, have gotten the cooking thing down real good and love it and baking also As far as i am conscerned each one of us are brothers and siters and as we are we should watch out for each other if you are allowed if not that is left to a higher power . Peace / AGAPE

I just moved to Niceville from Knoxville to go to school. I was in a few bands up there and toured a bunch. but now i'm trying to concentrate on school. i like to fish, play guitar, go to the bar occasionally, and i'm pretty much a movie buff. i'm pretty outgoing, but i still prefer just to hang out with a few close people rather than a big party. i'm in a band here as well, and we're doing pretty well for ourselves if i do say so. you should come watch us play sometime if you don't believe me ;)

I am an American aquarium drinker. If I had a tumor, I would name it Marla.

Really crazy and far out sense of humor. Folks either love me or run screaming from the room.. Don't know which is better? 71 year old widower looking for a new soulmate. I'm 6'4" so height won't be a real problem, 3" heels or 6" stillettos acceptable. I'm kinda skinny right now so hopefully can find a gal that isn't too either way. Lost a lot of weight caring for wife 24/7. Working that back up with a lotta proteins, Boost and beer. Lol. Prefer tall, blonde, athletic and of course has to be sexy. I can dream, can't I? As long as I'm windowshopping, go for the gusto. I never said that I was a dweeb now did I? Love to dance, waltz, slow, ballroom, or whatever the band is playing. Can be inventive too. Ha ha.

I was an Army pilot, both helicopters and light fixed wing aircraft. I enjoyed skydiving and other hell bent for leather activities. Built and raced dirt track cars in the sixties in Kentucky and Tennessee. Busted up a bunch of them too. Motorcycles have been a passion as well. My bones tell me that I must have been having fun alrighty!!! Fortunately all I have packed away in the years past is mild to moderate osteoarthritis -- not the bad stuff. Just takes a few minutes to get it all together in the morning. Ha Ha. If I had a partner, I might get it going even quicker.

My name is Amanda.
I love Classic Rock.
I live in an apartment.
I live in a hick town in the middle of nowhere.
I'm going to school for computer technology.
And blah, blah, blah. Just talk to me if you want to get to know me.

Hey! My name is Mike. I'm about 6 ft. tall, about 180-190 lbs, I have black-dark brown hair, brown eyes, & a nice bronze tan.

I love to just hang out with my friends. I'm pretty accepting and tolerable of most things. I like to be a passionate lover and a pretty friendly person but if need be I can be serious and stern.

I mostly have this account just so I can see all the interesting people around me who have things in common or even don't have things in common. I like to meet new people and have fun.

I've recently gotten more heavily involved in music. I always liked most any type of music but now I'm getting into learning to play different instruments (got a guitar and keyboard, trying to get a drum set) and playing with my friends.

I don't really have a religion but the best way I could describe my beliefs is Buddhistic Nihilism. I live life to enjoy and enlighten myself cause life is short and can end suddenly. Everything in the universe fades away at a certain point even the universe itself. This is part of the reason I'm bisexual because I see a person as just a person.

I don't know what to say yet but I'll try to do this soon. blah blah blah blah blah blah trying to get to 100 characters blah blah blah

I am unique and amazing and you will just have to find out what im like for yourself

Im going to be moving to niceville in less then a month and just want to get some friends before i get there. im going to be at north west com.college

I decided to clear my essay. I feel if we are to judge people it should be the answers to their questions and not what is written. Very few of us are professional writers and probably not the best at expressing ourselves in writing.

Hello....Im looking for someone that understands what they want out of life.Looks are semi-important but what is hidden inside is what matters in the long run.Im seeking an intelligent,confident,responsible woman who hasnt given up on finding her soulmate.I love children of all ages and still consider myself a child at heart.

I like usually just a like a relaxing time. I have some friends that are into crazy parties and not I've noticed that me. I enjoy parties but not into nothing like the hangover but I can draw the line where a party is more exciting than a christian book club. I would see myself in the middle, Not a crazy party person but I would go and leave until the cops bust it. I'm not the guy who would be in a story where it turns to , Then the Cops showed up. I just want to show that I'm a pretty laid back person. I do graphic design as a hobby. I'm certified in Adobe Photoshop Software and now just do it for fun.
