Profiling

With every dating website comes the dreaded profile.  Unfortunately, it's not something I can avoid if I want to move to the actual dating stage.  Without enough space or patience to put my entire life story online, I struggle with what to keep and what to keep out. For my blog, let me start at the beginning and hit on the highlights:

I was shy around guys growing up, I had a lot of friends but mostly girls and I lived vicariously through their dating drama.  It wasn't until I went to college that I even started to become friends with guys and then it seemed that most of my friends were guys and I still wasn't dating much. Just before I finished my Masters degree I met someone.  What started as a summer fling, turned into a really great (and long) relationship. It ended on good terms but it ended so I moved on...literally and figuratively. I went abroad for a year and a half. Well, no time for serious dating while I wasn't even settled, so now I'm back and getting a bit more serious with my life in general.

Which brings me to today, and I'm back to the dreaded profile.  Let's see...
I hate writing profiles.  Too overdone. 
I like long walks on the beach.  Too cheesy
I'm fun, intelligent, enchanting and honest.  Too conceited.
I am using you for a social experiment. Too honest.

I think I'll stick with something short, sweet and to the point.
