About CityBoy
I am a 36 year old Television News Editor/Producer based in Charlotte, North Carolina. I lived and worked in the suburbs for years. Slowly but surely, all of my friends started getting married and settling down. I, on the other hand, was nowhere near that point, and was sick of the quaint neighborhood cookouts full of married people asking me when I was going to meet the right girl. After a chance encounter, I found a whole new group of friends who lived in the city and gave me a whole new perspective on the interactions of men and women. I have started to learn that working on me was the best way to meet the one I was meant to be with. It has been a slow, but valuable process. Now, combined with an amazing group of friends, I feel more confident to stick my toe back into the dating pool. If you read, and comment, I’m sure we’ll learn from each other along the way!

How Much Is Too Much?
I met Sheila a couple of weeks ago, and I have to admit, I am rather taken by her. She’s funny, fun to be around, smart, and attractive. What’s more, she’s new to town, ready and willing to try new things and go to places she’s not been before. At this point, I can’t [...]
Falling for Potential
“Well, you’ll never guess who I ran into last night,” I said as I climbed into the comfortable booth in my neighborhood watering hole. Bree rolled her eyes, took another sip of beer then placed her glass neatly on the coaster, “let me guess . . . was it . . . Caroline?” “Holy crap, [...]
Honesty Would Have Been The Best Policy
It’s late . . . really late. Rachael and I are going for a late night walk. As we stop at the corner, I mention that my place is just one block away and asked if she would like to come up. She agreed, and we proceeded to my loft. We had been seeing each [...]
Why I’m Done With Internet Dating . . . For Now.
After my latest adventure into the world of Internet dating, I have realized that for the time being, I am done with it, for now. It’s not that I think I’m better than all that, or that I look down on anyone who still subscribes to e-match-chemistry-date-fish, because believe me, I have tried them all. [...]
Write’em off . . .
Sometimes you just have to write people off. It’s not that you’re mad with them, but there comes a point at which you realize that you’re not getting what you need out of a relationship, and it’s time for the relationship to end. Kerri is a fun girl. Make no mistake about it; she is [...]
Approach Pep Talk
You are small. You are anonymous. I mean really, what difference does it make what you do on a day-to-day basis? Do you feel small? Good. You should feel small, because you are. Think I’m beating you down. I’m not. There’s nothing wrong with being small, and anonymous. It’s a good thing . . . [...]
Resolutions
As I sit in this coffee shop, I feel the ground shifting beneath my feet. No, unlike many of the writers on this blog, I don’t live on the west coast, so it’s not an earthquake. It’s change, and a lot of it. It’s all good change, and it’s really exciting change: there’s a new [...]
