Reason #60 Why She Might Say No:

I’m more behind-the-scenes than center stage. Compliments? I deflect like a ninja. Spotlights? I duck ’em. I’m not hiding, I just like my magic quiet.

Unless we’re talking old fashioneds—then I’ll take two, the booth by the fire & I won’t shut up

Reason #59 Why She Might Say No:

I’m basically a Hallmark movie. I lost my mom 20 years ago. She was Christmas for me. Since then, the holidays feel empty. I don’t celebrate the holidays.

But I’m open to rewriting the ending… if someone ever made it feel like home again.

Reason #58 Why She Might Say No:

Because no matter how badass you think you are, you can’t look tough folded into a sidecar the size of a salad bowl.

I gave up dignity somewhere around mile two. Now, just hoping I don’t swallow a bug before this ride’s over.

Reason #57 Why She Might Say No:

My perfect first date isn’t dinner and show, it’s pajamas, glass of wine, and a fire flickering in the background.

Two people, wrapped in truth,
unafraid to be seen for who they really are.

Cats? Strongly encouraged.

Reason #56 Why She Might Say No:

Because I’m a gentleman.
I’m not here for a one-night stand, a notch in the belt, or a trophy on my arm.

I want connection.
I want someone who’ll be silly with me, get real with me, and love the life we build together.

Reason #55 Why She Might Say No:

I’m the kind of guy you don’t plan to fall for. It starts like any other relationship…
Then something real sneaks in.

Suddenly, you’re not just dating, you’re remembering what love was meant to feel like.

It becomes A Walk to Remember.

Reason #54 Why She Might Say No:

I can be witty… But the truth?
I’m also naive. Stuff that seems obvious to everyone else? It flies right over my head.

I don’t pretend to know it all,
I just show up with an open heart…
and occasionally miss the joke until way later 😂😂😂

Reason #53 Why She Might Say No:

I’ve never been downhill skiing.

At 6’4”, my center of gravity is legally classified as unstable. I’m all legs, zero chill, put me on a slope, I’m taking out half the mountain… accidentally.

But hey, I’ll let everyone know I did it for you 🥰😎

Reason #52 Why She Might Say No:

At 6’4”, airplane bathrooms turn into my personal acrobatic kink. I’m bent, twisted, braced on the walls
and not in the fun way.

Fly with me if you like a little chaos to spice up your travel…

Just be warned: I specialize in NSFW-level chaos. 😏

Reason #51 Why She Might Say No:

I had AI analyze our personalities and it concluded that on our first date, you make the first move.

I didn’t argue, I’m shy at first, and from what I hear… the Cylons have a plan.

I’ll let you brief me later after we’ve exhausted those moves. 🤣

Reason #50 Why She Might Say No:

I don’t fire off instant reactions. I listen, overthink (professionally 😅), and then share what I really feel.
Some people take that as “he’s checked out.”

Truth is, I just refuse to let a knee-jerk reaction speak louder than my actual heart.

Reason #49 Why She Might Say No:

When it comes to rescuing cats, I cannot be your voice of reason.

I’ll be beside you saying, “Yeah… we’ve got room for one more.”

Before long we’d be that crazy cat couple everyone warns their friends about.

Honestly?
I’d probably love it. 😏

Reason #48 Why She Might Say No:

When it comes to major sports teams, I don’t follow Calgary…
and I don’t follow L.A.…

But I definitely won’t tell you who I do follow. (Not Yet)

A man needs a fighting chance. 😏

Reason #47 Why She Might Say No:

If we ever go to IKEA, there’s a 100% chance I’ll get lost. And when I do… I’m finding an employee to make a PA Announcement.. be warned (see comment)

Reason #46 Why She Might Say No:

I came millimeters from becoming a Bond villain — eye patch and all.
Swung on a rope, hit a tree, stabbed myself in the eye… needed surgery to remove tree

Street Cred List:
– Been shot ✔️
– Been stabbed ✔️

My street cred isn’t a badge… it’s earned

Reason #45 Why She Might Say No:

I started a bold, public dating campaign… for a sci-fi icon with a million followers that I wasn’t even familiar with. I know. Who does that?

I’m catching up now, binging, researching, repenting. And praying she finds clueless adorable.

@triciahelfer.com
Reason #44 She Might Say No:

I don’t know much about men’s fashion or style.

In her world?
I might be classified as… a fixer-upper.

But I clean up well, I follow instructions,
and I definitely know how to treat something valuable once it’s in my hands. 😏

@triciahelfer.com
Reason #43 She Might Say No:

Because under this beard…
lives a 27-year-old baby face.

Shave it off, and suddenly I’m not rugged, I’m just a tall Canadian boy who gets carded at R-rated movies.

But hey…
I clean up dangerously well. 😏

Reason #42 She Might Say No:

Because I’m struggling to come up with 104.5 reasons why she mights say no.

I’m a good guy. With a better heart.
So yeah… I’m digging deep here.

But maybe that’s the reason:

Not flashy. Not perfect. Just real—and hoping that’s enough.

Reason #41 She Might Say No:

I don’t do drama. I talk things out early.

That’s the Tech Director in me.
Every issue has a solution…
You talk it through until you find it.

It’s my favorite feedback loop,the one where we talk it out, solve it, and get back to the good stuff. 😉

@triciahelfer.com
Reason #40 She Might Say No:

Let’s be honest…
I’m not like the other guys you’ve dated.

I’m playful
I’m witty
I’m a big nerd with a bigger heart

I don’t take myself too seriously—
but I take joy very seriously.
Life is my playground…
and I’ll be the one pushing you on the swing.

@triciahelfer.com
Reason #39 Why She Might Say No:

Because I’ve got street cred…
I’ve been shot.

…By a nail gun.

Almost lost my arm. Doctors were prepping for amputation—
I was just mad I didn’t finish the job.

So yeah… I may not be bulletproof.
But I am hard to get rid of. 😏

Reason #38 She Might Say No:

First time I used a rifle scope, gave myself a black eye.

I couldn’t hit a burglar if he stood still and waved.
But if you need someone to apologize while he escapes… I’m your guy.

But spotting you across a crowded room… suddenly I’m a sharpshooter.

Reason #37 She Might Say No:

I’m a big computer nerd.
But put me next to you and suddenly I’m testing all the ports.
You’ve got the kind of interface that begs for touch commands,
and I swear, if you so much as shift in that dress,
I’ll need more RAM just to stay functional. 😂

Reason #36 She Might Say No:

I always pick the same movie theater seats, end of the row, closest to the stairs.

It’s not OCD… it’s strategic.

When you’re the size of a bull and your bladder’s on a timer, you don’t thread the needle, you charge the exit.😅
