Rich, an entrepreneur & event promoter; Ko-nata, a radio personality; Odis, an insurance agent & DJ; Ryan, an admissions director; and Chris, a textile technologist. To help “connect the dots of love,” we’ve supplied their Twitter handles too so follow them on Twitter!

Christopher Webley, 24Occupation: Textile TechnologistHobbies: Fashion & networkingTwitter: @callmetopher
Your ideal perfect date? Not spend-ing any money, since going “dutch” is about as obsolete as chivalry. The ideal date in Columbus would consist of going to a drive-in movie theater because I’m very frugal, followed by a quick bite of food at a low key establishment.
What qualities does a woman need to keep your interest? Compassion, grace, & patience. When I look at my mother I see a woman of grace. She exhibits confidence, loyalty, elegance, mercy, & love. Conceptualizing the connection of grace with creation is in-strumental in maintaining any healthy relationship. And, if you’re anything like my mom then you’re a winner.
Rich Garrett, 30ishOccupation: Business OwnerHobbies: Meeting new people.Twitter: @rich_garrett
Your ideal perfect date? We meet out rather than me pick you up because gas is expensive. I pull out your chair, we ask each other questions.We have a few drinks and you laugh at my jokes that’s the basis for what a per-fect first date would be.
First thing you notice in a woman? Her style of dress & make-up if she needs it, her confidence, and how comfort-able she is in her setting.
Turn-offs? If your outfit looks like you picked it right up off the mannequin that tends not to impress me. I also feel like I’m funny so you have to laugh at my jokes. That’s one of my biggest things.

Odis Parker II, 30Occupation: Insurance AgentHobbies: Working out, going to the movies, and playing basketballTwitter: @djopzzy
Your ideal perfect date? The perfect date would be a cozy dinner comple-mented with good conversation and cocktails, followed with a movie or sporting event. Really anything that is upbeat or fun. End the night with a walk and nice view; some more good conversation.
First thing you notice in a woman? Great sense of humor, willing to try new things, creativity.
Turn-offs? Not thinking things through before speaking, “loud,” no serious sense of the importance regarding physical fitness.
Ryan Gresham, 30Occupation: Admissions Director Hobbies: Sports & politicsTwitter: @greezyfour3
Your ideal perfect date? A quiet setting with a nice atmosphere where you can have a good conversation. People watching always generates good conversation. And of course food can also drum up a little perspec-tive.
First thing you notice in a woman? Smile: That is huge to me. Body Lan-guage: How are they carrying them-selves in public. Company: Always peep the company they keep. “You are who you hang with” I don’t judge, but it sure can tell you a lot about a person.
Turn-offs? No ambition, poor conver-sation, immaturity, zero style.

Konata Holland, 36Occupation: Radio PersonalityHobbies: Making people laugh Twitter: @konatapower1075
Your ideal perfect date? It would in-volve good food, fine wine, great con-versation, and alot of laughter. I think that a great date doesn’t need alot of distractions so that the focus can be on the person that you are with.
Turn-offs? Foul language, rudeness, self-absorbed, too scantily clad, being loud, and the need to be the center of attention. Turn on’s? God fearing, sexy but classy style, beautiful smile, kind spirit, pleasant laugh; and ambi-tious.
First thing you notice in a woman? I see a woman’s eyes, smile, and style.
