Home: Elliston Age: 25 Sign: Aquarius Occupation: Youth pastor at Fort Lewis Baptist Church in Salem School: A bachelor's degree in religion with an emphasis in youth ministry from Liberty University Nominated by: Himself. He saw the Eligible feature on Roanoke.com and thought, "Why not?" He's never done anything like this before, and he likes to think of himself as adventurous. About Tyrone: He can't stand driving with his doors unlocked, and his family would probably say he's calm and level-headed (in effect, the spiritual anchor of the family). His friends, on the other hand, would probably say he's funny and charismatic, essentially a nut who's lost his mind. General interests: He's a fan of bowling, video games, sports and trying new things. Recently, he tried baking with much success (he said his congregation claimed the chocolate cookies he made were the best they'd tasted in a long time).
Where you're most likely to find him: At church, working out at the Salem YMCA or ordering a triple cheeseburger with no onions from Wendy's. (Ladies, if you want to cozy up with Tyrone, it's imperative that, under no circumstances, onions ever work their way into your evening.) Tyrone's routine when he goes out: His only routine is not wrecking his car. How long he's been single: 4 years Pro of single life: It's cheaper and you don't have to answer to anybody. Con of single life: There's no one to pick you up when you're stranded, everyone asks why you're still single and the advice people give you stinks. Whom he'd like to meet: An athletic, honest, caring woman who loves God and who doesn't take herself too seriously. In the next five years, Tyrone hopes to: Be married and have two kids, a four-bedroom house in the suburbs and a minivan.
How he rates Roanoke's single life on a scale of 1 to 5: 2 Why? He hasn't lived in the area long enough or ventured out enough to adequately gauge what Roanoke has to offer. Best date: A nice dinner, preferably Italian (not for the food but for the intimate atmosphere most Italian restaurants offer), a walk in the park and a moonlit dance. Worst date: It depends on the girl. Regardless of whether the date's perfectly planned, if it's not the right girl, it's not going to work. How to approach Tyrone: Smile and be honest. If you want to know how he's doing, really look at him and listen. Tyrone doesn't answer the scripted, "How are you doing" question with the typical "fine" answer. He really tells you how he's doing and he wants to know how you're doing, too. |
