in Introduce Yourself
I don't want this to be like facebook. ( Though I actually closed my account there 3 years ago ).... I'm a 50 year old guy who lives near Philadelphia. That motown13 is just a mix of my favorite music and my favorite number, LOL..... never been to Detroit, or even Michigan.

I am married with 2 daughters. I work from home. I have plenty of time to exercise, but that is my real weakness - getting off my butt! I don't know why, because usually I enjoy myself once I get there, there being the YMCA.

I want some solid friends who can offer support, and I will reciprocate. However, I do have one request..... If you plan on talking often about religion, I would rather not have you as a friend. I am not an athiest or agnostic, but I prefer not to have religion in front of me at any given moment.

A little bit more about me:

1. Huge music fan
2. Loves to travel
3. Pretty damn happy that Andy Reid was fired.
4. For as fat as I am, I am still pretty athletic
5. Having kids with my wife was / is the best thing I ever did.

BTW, just so you know upfront, I have an R rated personality, but I try to keep it in check while on public forums. And I might flirt with women, or I might not, but if I do, it is all just meant in good fun.... I'm happy with my family life.... but working at home, and also being Mr. Mom, I rarely see people, especially women, so I do admit to some fun natured flirting.... and YES, my wife knows, LOL.... In fact, she came with me to meet a woman I met in a chat room..... Don't worry, it was nothing salacious.... In fact, my wife even commented that she could see why that woman and I became friendly.

Anyway, that's me.... and I am looking for about 10 friends. I don't have the energy or time to communicate with 100 people on MFP.

Thanks.

    Hey Motown,

    I'm looking for a small supportive group as well. I've been on MFP for months and could use some friends.

    I'm fifty-something, love my family (married with two sons), myself (not in the narcissistic way, just an "affirmation to take care of me more way" ) and music. And I'm nice :smile:

    Would appreciate hanging with some nice "grownups" to make this work for all of us!

    Thanks

    I joined awhile ago, but it's been 6mo since I was here last. Life has a funny way of taking us out huh? I have several friends but doubt many if any remember me, so this is really like starting all over again. Feel free to add me if you are still looking for friends :)

    Feel free to add me as well. No political or religious talk and just looking for a few friends to support each other through our weight loss journey.
