Reasons for Women to date DOUG
This is DOUG’s house. He bought it for he and his mom and now he owns it outright. It’s an awesome old farmhouse on Naples luxurious lower East Side. DOUG’s mom had a massive stroke a few years back, and DOUG took complete care of her until the very bitter end. This was a full time job that he seldom grumbled about, but it was a huge sacrifice on his part. This underscores his intense loyalty to friends and family.
DOUG has a foofie dog named Sally who he takes everywhere and gets attention wherever they go. Of course Doug hates this. His cat Simon is a handsome studly fellow who is intensely loveable.
This is DOUG’s wood stack and fireplace. He never has a problem getting wood. In fact, Doug can probably get wood faster than any other 51 year old guy. Even during the coldest parts of the winter, you’ll stay warm and cozy with DOUG.
DOUG has an ass-kicking kitchen. As you can see, he doesn’t fuck around when it comes to kitchens. That’s why we put him in charge of rebuilding ours. He’s a great cook and he loves cooking for other people. We know this because he’s been cooking for us while he’s rebuilding our kitchen. He said he’s going to be bummed when our kitchen is finished and he won’t be able to cook for us. Somehow we’ll find a way to feed his cooking jones.
DOUG is a jack of all building and landscape trades and has a great eye for design and execution. He also works with a lot of big, impressive manly-looking tools that unhandy, uncoordinated people like me suffer tool envy over.
DOUG loves animals. Okay.. if you have the Bambi complex, DOUG isn’t your man. This fall he got a huge deer with his bow. This whole winter Doug has made every meat meal with Venison, and it’s freaking incredible. Venison burgers, Venison meatballs, Venison steaks. Nothing on that deer was wasted. It’ll be cool when he mounts the deer he just got, because we’ll remember how tasty it was.
DOUG is the master of manly, yet tasteful decorations, especially antiques. In terms of clothing and home and garden design, he’s an admitted metrosexual. (As metrosexual as any man in Naples can get away with being) He’s fun to go shopping with, except he stops and talks to everyone he knows or doesn’t know. He’s REALLY personable. And he cleans up nice.
But, most importantly…. he lives on this creek and is surrounded by really cool people.

Dear Doug,
Since you asked my opinion, may I say I am delighted to be the first to OPINE. Yes, your home is lovely and I can see you are a first rate craftsman. The fact that you love to cook for your friends says so much about you. You are full of warmth and mirth. By the way, I had the same stove in the old house. The grounds around the house are terrific and the four legged deer you shot needs a name. It’s the least you can do. I can see it clearly now that we are going to be competitive on two levels,,one is the YANKEES vs the itty bitty sox and who can cook the best ITALIAN FOOD. I do however, concede that seafood is YOUR territory.
Now I have one question,,just what is a METRO - SEXUAL? This doesn’t mean you will want to pick out my clothes and accessories, does it? I would date you anyway,,,
Love and Hugs,
Kimmer
