Set me up!
Wed, September 26, 2007 - 5:45 PMSo, if you know of any available men that I might be interested in and who might be interested in me, please point me towards them. Not just any random single friend, though; please think of what you know about me and what you know about them, and only make an introduction if it seems like it might be a good fit. For example, conventional, "normal", conservative, righteously monogamous, or religious just isn't going to work. But if you sincerely know any great men that I should meet, because you think we might like each other, I'm game for being set up.
What am I looking for? Available men, no children, employed. Lives in Seattle, preferably in the heart of Seattle. Somewhere from late 20's to early 40's; youthful at heart but maturity of spirit matters more than physical age. My type? Hippie-ravers, men who look like they're going into or coming out of the woods. NPR listeners. Thinkers. Liberals. Active and playful. Confident. Intelligent. Sexy. Open-minded. You get the idea.
I'd prefer links to any on-line presence if possible (tribe profile, flickr stream, blog, whatever). Please do not give out my personal information, rather, make an introduction via tribe.net or email.
Yeah, I know, I could post an ad on craigslist or join an on-line dating service, but then I'd have to pre-screen everyone myself. This way, you, my friends, get to do the pre-screening for me!
Set me up! Have fun!

what she said.
but if I hear of an as-yet undiscovered font of hot single liberal freaky men, I'll send up a flare. Once I've worn them all out. :) hahaha.

A semi-related post from my friend Dori:
people.tribe.net/dori/blog Relevant part: there seems to be a drastic shortage of them out here - at least straight-ish, single ones for 34-year-old girls. it explains, perhaps in part, why i've consistently heard from women out here on the left that its men are "commitment-phobes". it makes sense - if i lived somewhere surrounded by hot, single, powerful women, i'd probably wanna stay in the pool with all of them, too. last year i worked on a farm with about 40 people on it - around 28 or so were women. during a particularly libido-raised evening, face burning, i stammered and eventually asked a guy to go make out in the woods with me for a minute. it was, quite possibly, the most embarrassing delivery offered in the history of womankind. i look in the mirror and wonder if that stammering, blushing woman was the same one i look at now and pathetically enough, it is. i'm from a land where you fend the men OFF, not crawl in their laps as they sit back and see who's next in line behind you. |

Just to clarify: those were Dori's words in my comment, not my own.
As a MARRIED LADY (wink wink wink OW MY EYE) I haven't much to contribute. |

I think you hit the nail on the head: you've gotta go outside of the normal circles. I met my husband by going to a coffee shop music night that was in a part of Seattle I don't usually hang out and music I don't usually listen to, but sometimes like. Of course once we got to know each other we realized that we had a lot of common burner friends, the same interests, got along well, etc. So, my advice is to look into something you're interested in but haven't really immersed yourself in yet, and go do it alone and with an open mind...
