Thefeather, 39

Not quite anything. A gamer friend of mine once told me that I was the 'geekiest straight person' he'd ever met. I feel that, to this day, this is the best description anyone has ever come up with.

I think you could have me under the trades description act as 'gamer' as it's not something I do that much any more. I write, I cook, I read, I walk, I camp, I exercise, I teach myself stuff all more than I play games.

Gaming is my first love, but I feel that to justify going back to it, it would have to be a shared hobby with a partner (ie something to do instead of watching trash on tv).

I've slowly come to the conclusion that my romantic failings are based on my lovelife being conducted in what my friend from earlier may have called 'the normal world'. Where women enjoy going shopping, talking about weddings and watching the Xfactor.

But I don't think people like that are prepared for me. I'm relatively antisocial, have a black sense of humour, over analyse things far too much and enjoy fantasy more than reality.

I think the way I look (I dress and groom in a reasonably trendy way) and the world I inhabit makes it hard for me to meet girls who'd appreciate the above traits.

So here I am. Looking for an imaginative, interesting introvert.
