Sweet, Intelligent Man Back on the Market (for any single ladies out there!)

I just received a phone call from one of my two best guy friends from high school (he's the one on my side of the picture with the red hair). He FINALLY broke up with his girlfriend that he's been dating on and off for six years. Even though she was a nice girl, she was definitely not the right girl for him. Ryan has a super outgoing personally, he is exceptionally intelligent (he already has his Bachelor's & Master's in Aeronautical Engineering from Stanford and is working towards his PhD), and just an all-around nice guy. She is smart and cute, but did not have the personality that Ryan needs to complement him. She was a little uptight and formal about everything and not very sociable, which Ryan is probably one of the friendliest guys I know. To make a long story short, they finally realized that they were holding on to something that in the end probably wouldnt' work out and it was holding both of them back from meeting someone who might be more compatible and they both were feeling like they had to change themselves and the way they acted to be around each other. Which is never good in any relationship.

So for all you single ladies out there, Ryan is back on the market!!!! :) He lives in Palo Alto, California, but grew up with me in Florida and wants to move once he finishes school. He also manages to stop through Texas once a year or so for a visit!!! I'm happy for his new start for 2005!

you may also want to mention he's in his early-mid twenties. he's not, like, in his 40s. which is what i would expect for someone with such academic accomplishments.

i can attest, he seems like a nice guy. i met him the weekend of mel's wedding.

Good point! :) He will be 26 in March even though he seems like he should be much older.
