I am Jason Taylor, age 41, Portland Oregon. I am new here. I have come here because waiting for girls to come to my overwhelmingly romantic aura seems to be a rather misguided strategy.
I am a scholarly sort. I like history and science fiction and collecting books. In fact I am a genuine nerd. I work as a volunteer for Multnomah County Library and in a way the library has given me a sense of purpose. I really am not much good at anything other then scholarship and librarianship, nor am I very rich but I can be a loyal and honest friend and if given a chance you can be sure I would work hard and not take a girl for granted.
I am looking for a wife because I frankly do not wish to die a grumpy old man. If I cannot find one at least I have tried. And maybe I can at least find a friend-and friendship is something I value highly. I would naturally like another nerd like me. Character and intelligence and shared interests are important to me. Looks are secondary though they do have a place in my consideration. Basically if I can get by that is good enough. I should have started searching sooner and it is to late for me to be over picky.
I cannot travel because I am an epileptic so I have to look within my own area. Within there I can use public transportation.
Honestly I have less to offer then many guys. I just want to take a shot at this kind of thing and hopefully be given a chance.
