Manhattan's Local Dating Service

I enjoy getting to know new people but I can be a bit introverted at first, once I know you my spontaneous and blunt nature shines. I avoid the silly games that some people play with each other. Life is too short for me to waste, I prefer being candid and direct in any situation I try to keep an open mind in almost all situations I find myself in.

Hi
I would cosider myself an outgoing and spontaneous person. I think there is nothing better than seizing the day, so I try to make the best out of any situation. I enjoy going to the movies, dinner and dancing. I'm a fan of the whole nightlife scene in general, but am equally comfortable on the couch for a Blockbuster night.

My music collection varies. I have CDs from Goo Goo Dolls to Kanye West. I do find myself listening to Kings Of Leon alot lately.

I'm here to try new things and meet interesting people.

i am 19 years old and i go to hudson valley college in troy ny.

90% self-match, eh? We use only 10% of our brain, right? I think I'm seeing a pattern here.

My friends would describe me as intelligent, honest, caring and passionate. I truly believe that life should be lived to the fullest or at least to the fullest of our extent. I appreciate the simple things in life. I'm more than the usual combination of interesting and funny, so be prepared for someone who's out of the ordinary. I love variety and spontaneity, especially when it comes to new places and experiences. I'm always upbeat and happy. I like being around nature and the quiet outdoors.
A sense of humor is a big plus for me, I need someone who can laugh at themself once in a while and is willing to dish out jokes as well as receive them.
I have an amazing single life and I'm simply looking for someone to share it with.

i try to be giving in most areas of my life, whether with friends-encouraging, helpful, postive, or with family- helping, in what ever manner.

i find giving to be such a wonderful and uplifting part of life(sounds corny i guess) but also i have to say, to be there for family and friends, it is its own reward bc it is fun, and usually full of laughter.

but love my family dearly, love what i do outside the politics of it, and love spending time creating, whether that meanings dinner to build a friendship, writing creatively, building or remodeling, or in my work.

oh yeah, cant do with out my nieces and nephews laughter! that is a tonic that solves more problems!

I have a bad case of wanderlust and want to make an attempt at everything and everywhere. I have a very chill spirit but it tends to change with excitement and impulsive behavior. I love discovering anything new from food and music to places and quirky people (especially).

I am a white male living in New York City. I am a genuine person, openminded and non judgemental. I like to get to know a person before I make assumptions.

hey you. just your regular new yorker here, born and raised. looking for a smart intelligent woman to chat with. if casual escapades are your thing, then i'm your guy.

OKcupid says i have to add more to make my profile complete so I just want to add that I have nothing else to add.

I am born and raised in San Antonio, TX and after graduating from college, I moved to NYC last April to get into the music business.
I am the type of person who loves to laugh and joke around. I am always up to take random and spontaneous road trips, go on crazy adventures, and meet cool new people. I am a very easy going person that gets along with anyone I meet, I like to give everyone the benefit of a doubt, until I am given a reason otherwise.
I am very close to my family in Texas and love to be with friends.
I love watching sports, especially football and basketball, drinking beer and eating burgers. Even though I have my favorite foods, I am always up to try something new.

I hate when people walk slow on the sidewalk, smoke in front of me, people talking during movies or shows, ridiculously drunk girls, onions (minus the onion rings), bugs, that I sometimes want to stay in all day when its beautiful, screaming babies, messiness, repeating myself, staring at a computer most of my day....

I feel like the three "describe yourself" words I chose make me sound like an asshole, but a person can't really be summed up that way so that's the best I can do at the moment lol.

All in all though I think it's safe to say I am a pretty sweet person in the sense that I enjoy kind exchanges, peace and balance and choosing my battles... A "why can't we all just get along?" kind of disposition, but of course not at the cost of sticking up for what's right if need be.

I say unique because I often find it hard to meet people I can relate to, not because I am difficult but perhaps because I am multi-faceted and somewhat intricate (and I don't mean to inflate myself in any way).
I have many interests and many passions and I try to be open minded and keep an open heart as best and as often as I can.

Which led me to the third choice of words "eclectic"... I am a huge encourager of maintaining an "open pallet"... Especially when it comes to art and music, food and culture.

Music is my first love, and I also have an admittedly dark sense of humor.

I myself am an artist, majoring in Graphic Design at Pratt institute approaching the last semester of my senior year.

Life's in flux and am liking it.
Dig television, books, music, graphic novels. (Who doesn't?) Big action flicks, farm-to-table cuisine, insightful conversation.
Am a good egg, and appreciate others who are, too.

i like to color and watch 30 rock episodes more than once. i sometimes am afraid that i'm regressing in maturity, but maybe it's just being easily amused. i really like animals and learning about them. i'm an anthropology student. i'm sort of creepy. i like hanging out at the museum of natural history and i'm there at least once a week. i like trashy things like twilight and us weekly. i rarely go out in the sun without sunglasses on. i'm sort of shy.

A seeker and a wanderer. A lover of travel, music and language. A teacher. A loyal friend. An informal dancer and an in-the-closet singer. A person on a path who is looking for anyone interested in conversation, laughter, friendship and new adventures.

I'm unassuming and low-key but confident and opinionated when I need to be. I'm witty, wry (pastrami on, please), and too often silly, but I'm genuine, unpretentious, and open-minded. I make an effort to understand where other people are coming from. I'm committed to my career but make time for getting together with friends, taking a long contemplative walk, or quietly enjoying a hot dog on the corner. I'm into contemporary studio art (I can mount a canvass, but not very well) and trolling around new exhibits and galleries. I'm a bit of a film buff and a news and politics junkie; I dig jazz clubs with character, exploring unconventional eats in different neighborhoods of the city, throwing rocks at cars, etc. I make good use of my library card, but I'd like to think I'm not one of those creepy curmudgeons who haunt those buildings. I've lived in a few places, but I'm a hopeless native New Yorker who's in love with the 24-hour pulse of this city and the people I come across here from all over the world. Okay, I'll be short--wait, I'm tall--so I'll be brief.

To me, balance and laughter are the keys to a happy life.

I love to travel to and explore new places--in the past couple of years I've been to the cliffs of Ireland and to the rainforests of Ecuador, and I'm always looking for my next adventure.

I'm ambitious but grounded, and my family and friends are the most important things to me.

I'm Alex, 5'9, 160, French, brown hair, green eyes, gym-fit, non-smoke. I'm considered charming and handsome ;-)

I live in Chelsea, I am a well-travelled businessman, generous, considerate and respectful, and I like to spoil my partner in many ways.

I'd love to meet a smart, sassy, sexy woman with brains, who loves to chat, walk in Manhattan, travel the world, try new crazy things with me...

My name is Alexander Finnegan. I grew up in a tiny town in Massachusetts. I currently live in New York. I love art, I'm a photography student. I generally like everybody, I'm just a people person. I'm super close with my family, especially my mom. I love tight knit families, they make me feel at home. Accents practically make me drool. I'm pathatically obsessed with musicals. Music is one of my many passions.

I'm looking to be lovers with a man who is generous, affectionate and kind. I am drug and disease free and you should be the same. I like the intelligent and intellectual types. I am not looking for players but for a man who wants a casual relationship with one woman. I like long, slow, sensual kisses and passionate sex, but I am not kinky. I am voluptuous, not fat and not a rail, and no fake body parts. Please be unattached.

Hello everyone out there. my name is Alexander Vartan Geudelekian but my friends call me "alex." im 18 years old and i live in NYC. i love to cook and dance and spend time with my family and friends. most importanly i love to talk to anyone so if ur having a hard day and just want to vent..ill be here...
p.s. im shy around cute girls

I grew up in New York City. I lived in Europe (Paris, France) for a couple of years, and I'm fluent in Spanish, French, and English. I am working on Norwegian now. I studied physics with a concentration in astrophysics at MIT, but then realized that was not my passion. I enjoy cooking. Cooking is an art form in itself. I love it when my food puts a smile on people's faces.

IM OUT OF THE COUNTRY FOR A BIT - I WILL WRITE BACK SOON...

i'm a bit quirky. I spell poorly. I stay up late. I sleep in. I sense the poetry all around me and feel grateful. I want to cultivate joy. tenderness. i enjoy jumping off of things while wearing wings...any kind of sky travel...off the beaten path finds..sweet lighting....original leonard cohen books...rain....

I would like to think of myself as down to earth, But I am a theatre person. HA
The difference about me is that I am hard working and spend most of my time working. I am an actress, Stage manager, Wardrobe Supervisor, Lights and Sound board Op.,puppeteer, and anything else in theatre I can get my hands on.
My work does mean a lot to me, and it would be nice to find someone who understands that. Oh yea I do go out and have fun too.. I'm not boring

I guess this is the part where I get to brag about my captivating qualities. Well, let's see...okay, apart from my absolute awesomeness I suppose you could say I am a tiny bit shy. Nevertheless, I'm an all around sweet person. I love reading, watching movies, volunteering, spending time with friends and family, visiting parks, museums, and riding my bike. I am a very sentimental person, I mean, I keep a journal, tickets from shows that I've gone to, you name it. Education takes on a dominant role in my life, so I won't always be free, but I'm always up for working things out. I love discussing a wide array of topics, intellectual discourse is always a plus.

I'm from...well...a lot of places. I moved around a lot growing up. But most recently, I'm from Maine. My family has a cashmere goat farm there, and as such I'm kind of a yarn snob. I like to knit, and I'm damn good at it. We have a six-toed cat named Simon Jr.(a.k.a. Toots)

Me at a very quick glance:
I am an active and curious person that loves trying new things. Iâ??m originally from a small town and that side of me can be seen in my kind disposition, but I very much fit into (and adore) New York City. Some of my main interests include traveling, art, movies and spending time with friends/family.

Well lets see...Im from Atlanta, Georgia and I went to school in Vermont. I moved up here about a year ago.

I do sustainable project management for a university. Most of my spare time is spent training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and exploring charming hole-in-the-walls around town.

Once when my college roommate asked me about myself, I eagerly replied "I like animals!" Apparently at that time i did not think that was a creepy comment but today i have learned my lesson and will refrain from further awkward commentary.

Superman is my favourite superhero.

I've got a brand new pair of roller skates.

I am a down to earth kind of girl. I'm the type of girl that you can hang around like a best friend, play video games until the sun comes up. I'm the girl to bring home to the parents, although I know how to have a good time. I really am genuine, I'm not that girl that will hurt you.

Hi guys, it is taking me a long time to complete this profile :P
I guess because it is very difficult to write about yourself.

I am in the music business, I love what I do.

I've been looking for the right guy for a while now.
I am sure that is a matter of time until that beautiful person will come my way and will engage me emotionally :)

Thank you for reading this.

As a young attorney that just moved into the city, I would have to say that the one sentence that best defines my life would most definitely be, â??The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.â??

Hello there! First let me thank you for taking your time and actually stopping to read this. My name is Andres and im 20 years old. Born and raised in NYC and im a hopeless romantic!!!! I wanna find a girl that is too. Im in the Army but soon getting out. Im planning to attend college and major in architecture. I love NY! and i thats one reason im getting out. I miss it. Another reason is my family. They are always worried about me. I wanna experience other stuff in life. Im only 20 and all i know is HS and the Army. Not really good. I like history kinda good to see that im kinda being part of here by being here. I love to draw cityscapes and love photography. Well if theres anything you else you wanna know you know what to do.

People are always asking me for directions in this city, it must mean I'm fairly approachable, or just happen to run into many lost people. Good thing I usually have an answer for them, or can easily reference my map on my iPhone.

When I was in high school I was voted Best Sense of Humor, which I have to say is one of my proudest awards to date, aside from lettering in Track & Field at the University of Michigan. When it comes to wit/sarcasm, I can roll with the best of them. And when it comes to sports, I can cheer/talk smack with the best of them. And when it comes to grammar, sometimes I use slashes for emphasis/fun.

So far, life has been pretty good to me. I finally moved to NYC which is hands down the best decision I ever made. I'm not very well-traveled internationally, which I hope to change in the very near future. I have the passport, just need the time and perchance, a travel buddy.

In the meantime, I spend my days enjoying this wonderful city, writing, playing as much volleyball as I can stand, going-with-the-flow, making sure my dog is well cared for, swiping good deals from Groupon, scoping comedy clubs, playing ping pong at Fat Cat, being a great friend, and avoiding anything with olives in it.

I love life, performing, and my friends. I don't have trouble meeting guys, but haven't found the right one yet.

I like me, and I like having a good time with people I care about. I also love exploring new places and am always up for an adventure. I like sports, fall, snuggling, polar bears, rainy days, warm nights, the stars, fresh air, puppies, movies and such and such.

I am a college student studying engineering in NYC. Humor is very important to me, I cannot be with someone that doesn't smile and laugh a good amount of the day. Making people laugh and smile while still retaining an image of being well educated is what I strive to do.

kind of new to this, so I am not really sure what to write here. I love having fun. I don't worry about much and just live life.
