Johnny you excell at presenting your blogs as a parabole. The vlog format would be equally entertaining.Like Candid Camera or Punked,each shows a variety of reactions to a scenarios.
I believe you learn through observation.I take notes too.
By getting out of the dark bars, I am not suggesting you platonically date...
the " fearless American gals" in nursing homes. On second thought a cute single nurse there might find you,uh, desperate,I mean,darn what is the right word.Subliminal,no,oh well.
You hang out here and you have yet to put on display the new you. * Maybe you could ditch your picture with a woman,and even if Bert happened to be Roberta the new Johnny has to be main attraction. Otherwise the question you are proposing is a reflection of how your potential lady might view things. How can any woman interested in knowing you better get around these two people.( Old Johnny lifestyle).
Some of the input on profile reviews are seriously great suggestions.
The local romance vs a relocator, you have also only had a year of change under your belt. You are essentially the new kid on the block.Don't spend it in dark bars.Also, with all the changes happening simultaneously one might need a temporary,more dating or even platonic status to start with.The settled in Johnny could also be seeking out a less opportunistic woman or at least recognize and avoid Co-dependent women.You need time to know your strengths and her weaknesses. (Equally yoked and sobriety based).
If all else fails you can travel to another country and see how much they care for Americans,then move back with your new found perspective about what they want from your lifestyle. Think of it as a dating course; international networking and contract negotiating.M'be even a tax write off.
