I carve my own path in life, I'm never content to simply follow established norms. I am a free thinker, and I'm definitely a liberal. I'm perfectly content to be who I am and do what I want, peer and societal pressures be damned. I am a very creative person. I especially love writing both fiction and poetry, but I also enjoy art and music. I love intellectual pursuits. I'm a geek, or nerd, or whatever you want to call me. I embrace it, because it is what makes me happy. In my free time I love board games, videogames, reading, and watching quality tv. But I also have a good sense of adventure, and I love traveling, and exploring, and natural wonders like caves. I dream of seeing the world. I believe in openness and honesty above all else. If you can't be true to the one you are with, then what is the point? Strong relationships demand openness. But above all, I believe that a strong sense of humor is vital to enjoying life. I love to laugh and be silly and act goofy. Taking everything seriously is far too depressing. I'm a bit shy at first, but once you get to know me you'll find that I can be very warm and caring. I am strongly against violence in all its forms. Although ethnically Jewish, I'm not religious. I choose to make up my own mind and follow science. I am looking for a girl who is intelligent, funny, and who is unafraid of just being herself. A few common interests are always nice, but a little variety keeps things interesting. I'm kind of testing the waters of this online dating thing, maybe the right girl is out there for me. If you are interested, don't hesitate to send me a message.
