About me...?
I am a bit unusual to be honest, not in a awkward way or anything, quite the opposite! Although I never thought of myself as a nerd, I can't deny it - I just love thinking about things: I have a very active and curious mind! At the same time I was always a complete daredevil and off gallivanting on adventures..I ran away from home when I was 18 months old to get close to the car wash down the road from our house, I was fascinated by that car wash :p. Being so pumped full of energy and running all over the place all the time, my mum channeled it into sports: lots of rugby, swimming, athletics, tennis, football, anything really.. I have always been very determined and had a strong drive to explore the unknown. All in all I was a mischievous (often got into trouble!) nerd, incredibly sporty, mad about music.. all my pocket money was spent on music cassettes and I would just sit for hours listening to them.
I grew up in Dublin (for 14 years), a product of an Irish father and French mother who happens to be the strongest women I have ever encountered! I went to a French school there and would visit France at least 3 times a year. Later on we moved to the Alps in France where I spent 5 years of my life (my family still lives there today).
So I really grew up with both cultures.. although I do feel more Irish than French! But essentially feel like neither at the same time, which in retrospect I think was a good thing and taught me a lot about myself and identity in general.
I am an honest person with a good heart and feel bad when someone is mistreated. I am quite sensitive in ways, sensing how other people are feeling was quite natural for me. Very boyish in certain aspects yet somewhat feminine in others. I can do small talk, but would rather skip it.. I like substance, and genuineness.
The idea of hurting someone is just horrible to me, and I don't like meanness.
I am no saint and have my flaws, but people seem to enjoy my company a lot and feel comfortable around me. I was always lucky that way and easily made new friends when moving from place to place.
I work hard and that is important to me, I want to keep on building, learning and to grow. Money is not a strong driving force for me, I have always viewed it as a by-product.
I may be surprisingly open at times, and then hard to reach at other times, but some things in life have been hard to deal with and I feel I am allowing myself to open up and let people in more and more. I was always loving and had a lot to give but some things can hurt you in ways which are so deep that you don't allow yourself to feel the pain and it can take years for it to come out. But as it gradually does come to surface, you can let people back in and love again, that feels nice :).
If you have read this far you have probably gathered I am not the alpha-male type and not very interested in superficial things. If you are looking for a "strong" man and a traditional style of relationship, then we're fundamentally looking for different things.
PS: I shaved my hair off recently so I will upload a couple of updated pictures when I get the chance!
