Healing Powers

“Before my service ended, I became a Certified Personal Trainer to carry on with my work as a civilian,” Partridge explains. “I now host a YouTube page, sharing my fitness knowledge with everybody, and as for my massage work, my passion is to heal people’s bodies and minds through massage therapy.”

Tough Guy

“I was actually bullied for being light-skinned in an all-black school,” Partridge admits. “I was discriminated against and called ‘white.’ It’s sad, actually, that people have to categorize one another that way. This actually inspired me to be somewhat of a superman as I grew older. I began to look out for bullied kids.”

Enjoy Life

Partridge stays busy with lots of pastimes and extra curricular activities. “My favorite are spending time with my family and friends, learning new things, exercising, martial arts, bike riding, enjoying nature, going to museums and amusement parks,” he adds. “Just having a good time outside.”

Sexy Is As Sexy Does

“I think a woman’s sexiest qualities are her eyes, voice, speech, confidence, intelligence and body,” Partridge reveals. “Her eyes and voice are genetic, but the other qualities tell me how she truly lives her life.”

Wise Words

“You can’t give what you don’t have,” Partridge insists. “Many people are so caught up in pleasing others that they forget, or oftentimes don’t know how to love themselves.”

R-E-S-P-E-C-T

“I will tell my son to treat a woman the same way he wants me to treat his mother and the way he would want a man to treat his future daughter,” says Partridge. “I will teach him that everyone should be treated with respect.  Everyone.”

The Smart Choice

“Whenever I fail at something, I have only two options: waste time pointing fingers and placing blame or pick myself up and move forward,” Partridge explains. “I will always choose the latter.”

Over the Moon For You

“I’m excited by a woman who is intelligent and about her business,” he admits. “But also playful, confident, humble and self-respecting yet selfless. And, I’m over the moon if she’s also athletic.”

Great First Impressions

“To impress a woman, I’d simply be little ol’ Midwestern me,” Partridge says. “I’m hoping women want a good, genuine man who has a bit of a bad boy side.  In a nutshell, that they want a Gemini. Because, um, that would be me!”
