Bearded, balding, five feet ten
Avoiding drama
I am doing the online dating thing, and it seems to me that every man out there in a certain age range is 5' 10", balding, and has a goatee. They've all gotten out of a long-term relationship and they've gone to pot because they haven't had to worry about it in a long time. They fly the old man flag (see The Old Man Flag) by wearing dad jeans and old-man tennis shoes. Either all that or they're terribly spindly. Look, I don't mind it if if you're not so much on the big side, but I don't want the notion that I could bench press you if I gave it a shot. And everybody, and I mean everybody, says they don't want drama. What the hell does that mean? What if I came to a date wearing a cape and some sort of viking helmet? Now that would be drama. Can you really say you wouldn't want that?
If ever I go on a date with a girl in a viking outfit singing an opera falsetto, I will know she has a true sense of drama, and I will know she is the one.
