Searching for the "Uptown Woman" - 34

Date: 2007-11-09, 8:09AM

I have been working in the uptown area for months now doing construction and watch all the beautiful women all over the place. So now I thought I would try this to see if any of you read these.

Me: I am 5'11", 225lbs. Not fat here. drug and disease free. Very short brown hair and brown/green eyes. Nice looking, openminded, educated, and LOVES to please you.

You: The classic blonds/ brunettes from the salon. The artsy alternitave woman with pink and orange hair taking pictures/painting artwork. The BBW waiting for the bus. The runner going somewhere in a hurry. The woman wearing all black and completely covered. The one wearing almost nothing at all. The pierced and tatooed woman. The business woman.

You are all so beautiful. Makes me glad to be a man. Are there any of you wanting to take a chance? Lets chat.

I have a thing for black pregnant woman. I find it very sexy. I understand that pregnant woman can have a very high sex drive and sex is quite healthy when your pregnant.

I'm a tall, good looking white guy, blond hair, blue eyes. If your pregnant, black and single, hit me up with a picture. I'll send some back to you.

Do you really need to include how many people you've slept with in your personals ad on Craigslist?!?!?

You're all nutters! - 25

OK, I'll agree that a controlling portion of men are assholes and/or stupid. After working in a night club last summer, I know for a fact it's true. But allow me to be most likely the first open-minded, intellectually capable, equality-minded male you've ever heard say this. Most women (not all) are completely battshit crazy!

I do not understand either of these trends. On a psychological level men and women are almost identical when we start out. Yes, there are slight differences, but they are slight (a female toddler separated from their mother by a wall will cry while a male will attack the wall for instance).

I would very much like to find a woman who, like me, tends to ride the wire between feminine and masculine. I will love you as long as you'll have me if you can go to a dive bar, drink beer, watch kung fu movies, but absolutely melt when I buy you a pair of vintage Mary Janes and can remember your shoe size. I want to go to my stylist (Erin Flavin, Jon Oulman Salon, go to her, she's fantastic) and have her tell me all the nice things you said about me when you got your hair done last. I want you to challenge me to belching contests. In my perfect relationship, you'll tell me I'm fussing too much over which shirt to wear and I'll tell you you're fussing too much over your hair. I crave balance.

Also, unlike most men, I do not want a nymphomaniac. That, to me, is hell. I can not keep up with someone who wants it five times a day. I will not sleep with someone on the first date. If we really click, maybe the first month. I have dated a lot of women, had a lot of chances, and so far my list is 2. Quality over quantity. I refuse to let something as intimate, as exciting, and as sincere as sex become a constant routine that only lasts 10 minutes.

So, if you are a well balanced woman with a brain who feels comfortable with her whole self and you well and truly do want a sincere, kind, thoughtful, generous, romantic guy and not some pinheaded jock who's tiny brain shuts down if the space between fucks lasts longer than an hour, right here. If you're nuts, stupid, or are more interested in an Adonis than a Plato, then go to the nearest mirror, look into your own eyes, and ask "do I feel good about myself?" But more importantly, please leave me alone.

Do you believe in second chances, do you appreciate honesty - 30

I am a convicted felon for drug charges and fleeing an officer. I used drugs for over 10 years and have been sober for two and a half years. I am honest, sincere, good looking, caring, and a gentleman. I made some bad decisions in the past but am a changed man. Since I became sober I have attained my drivers license which I did not have for 10 years.

I raised my credit rating from 450 to 680 currently, and continuing to rise. I have made all new friends and do not involve myself with old social circles. I moved to the city and have been self sufficient for almost two years. I do attend AA a couple times a week.

Like I said I am a good looking, inshape man but probably will not send you a picture on the first email. I prefer active and slender to average woman. I am looking for someone that will accept me for my past but smart enough to realize that life is boundless and any body can overcome and achieve anything they desire in todays world!!!!!!

Can you find any body more honest? Any questions? Are you willing to send a pic?

WOW! Craigslist works

Aside from selling furniture, I've never posted on Craigslist. Until tonight.

I got a pair of tix to Tuesday night's Wild vs Stars hockey game and decided to try something I saw on Boston's Craigslist a few years ago. This is what I posted:

Minnesota Wild vs. Dallas Stars

I am a single 27 year old female, living in Uptown. Through work, I got two tickets to Tuesday's Wild game. Rather than going to the game with a friend, I thought it would be fun to use this as a tool to meet someone - random but could be fun. Just drop me an email telling me about yourself, where you live, and your picture - I'll decide who is going to the game by Monday.

I must admit I'm more of a Gopher fan than a Wild fan and this will actually be my first NHL game ever so I thought a fun date to the game might make it memorable.

So far, I've gotten over 30 responses -- and I posted it just a few hours ago. I feel very popular even though I know people just want me for my free hockey tickets. I'd say 1/2 of the responses are from people that seem normal and nice (I have a few oddballs, certainly [read: 40 year old limo driver offering to drive us to the game in his limo]) and one person I know in real life that responded not knowing I'm me, hehe.

I'm now starting to reply to the normal cute boys to determine who I'm picking as my date for the game. I have high hopes it's somebody that doesn't suck - and that I can roll the people I don't pick but that seem nice into dates outside of my ticket promotion.

UPDATE: I have 50 responses, and have it narrowed down to my top 4. It's tough to pick.

Am I hot or not?

After having VERY good good luck selling some stuff on Craigslist, I'm now deciding I should considering buying MORE stuff. It's my kind of recycling :)

If you've been to my new place, think about the side of the couch by the window - I'm looking for a cheap, quirky table for there. Is this cute or ugly? It's cheap $50 so price isn't an issue - I almost think it's ugly/cute. But it might just be ugly/ugly.

Opinions, please. And fast! Gotta act fast when you're dealing w/ Craigslist.

I can't stop giggling at this...

Can you teach me the "Wedding Dances" ???
I have to go to a wedding in 2 weeks and want to learn the Electric Slide, the Chicken Dance, Macarena, Cotton Joe, and more.

In return, I can probably buy you drinks or teach you accounting or Excel.

I am serious about this :)

I'm a 28 yr old male in NYC
