Talents:
OCD can be both a blessing and a curse. It has given me interesting talents that allowed me to be a successful high school dropout with a comfortable, though early, retirement from professional life.
The downside of OCD is that, when combined with a military life with frequent moves and constant travel all over the world for months at a time, my personal relationships have suffered. With PTSD comes agoraphobia, so I stay close to home except for necessary trips away as driving is a trigger (and I have a lead foot and quick temper- bad combo's while driving).
Perfect Mate:
intelligent; spiritual (Judeo/Christian belief); sincere & honest; gentle-natured; cultured; passionate about something; sensual and sexual; someone with their own hobbies and interests; Independent; cooks well, keeps a clean & organized home; interests in history and sciences; animal lover.
Perfect Date:
ends with a 2nd.
Turn Ons/Offs:
Seduction, Flirting, Teasing are turn ons. The spice of life!
Best Reason to Get to Know Me:
If you can get past the fact that I'm old and retired, have combat-PTSD and a genetic form of OCD, I am a regular guy trying to shift into low gear after an exciting career. This and living life alone means finding companionship where I can and, as you might understand, with the issues I have, I don't get out much which really narrows my options to meet anyone.
