I guess you could call this my first blog post, so here goes.
This one will probably be more of an introduction of myself than anything, including the rock and the hard place I'm currently stuck in, so feel free to skip the bad parts.
I'm a 33 gamer guy, who is pretty much a stay at home dad. I've been in a relationship with a woman who has cerebral palsey for the past 10 years and we've recently had a child together. Problem is, that relationship has been falling apart since before our daughter was born and I don't have the heart to break it off, and now, the only thing keeping me in the relationship is our daughter. I'm at the point where I just don't know what to do. My other half just doesn't seem to care to show me any kind of love and affection, and finds more reasons to complain than anything. Our cat and daughter, they both give me more affection than she does. So for all intents and purposes, at this point I need a friend, or two, or more to just help me get through this, distract me from my problems and give me different points of view.
Now onto the good stuff...
As it is, I tend to be prone to sudden changes of subjects and derailments of all sorts of trains of thought. This is where things get interesting and this is all the good stuff about me, at least in my eyes.
I'm one of those nice guys, the ones you hear about, the ones that you should have dated to begin with, but was always considered "just a friend." Well, that's me. I admire a beautiful smile, lovely eyes, and the brains behind both. Beauty to me is more than just skin deep, it's the whole of a person that defines your true beauty. I've seen some really beautiful ladies out there, at least in body, but their attitudes, their sneers, to me that just makes them flat out unnatractive. To be truly beautiful, you've gotta have an open mind, be willing to comprimise, laugh easily, and just be a good person all around. Those are the ideals I hold, and sometimes I just wish I could find someone who would see me the way I see the world.
And now onto who I am, what I like, and what I believe in.
I love the ocean, unfortunately though the beach and swimming is as far as I can enjoy it as I get motion sickness on boats. I'm a strong believer in luck in all it's shapes, wether it be good luck or bad luck, luck is just crazy that way. I love to read, mainly fantasy/sci fi stuff, and my movie tastes are about the same, with some action and adventure thrown in for good measure. My music tastes are ecclectic to say the least, if I like the song, I like it, no matter what the genre, you'll find anywhere between 80's to country, techno to hard rock, alternative to rap, and anything and everything in between just sittin on my playlist.
Last but definitely not least, I love video games, it's not an addiction, but it's something I'm rather fond of, some games, like World of Warcraft, make me think of a book, where you right your own story within a basic framework of course. Others, like League of Legends, just give you a release of any negativity you have with some healthy competition. Those two are the main games I play, but I play all sorts of other games as well. I've an XBOX 360, PS3, Nintendo 3DS, and have had all sorts of misc game consoles since atari and commadore 64 (wow, I think I'm dating myself there).
Hopefully my first blog post wasn't a bad one, hope y'all enjoyed the read, and hope at least some of ya drop me a line to chat or whatnot.
