Sci-fi lover seeks a woman that captivates his imagination

Joe, 25

Sexy librarian: When it comes to his dream woman, he says he would like her to be “an avid reader.”

Hey, girl: Every now and then, someone will tell Joe he looks like Ryan Gosling, except, he says, when he grows out his mustache.

Walk on: One of Joe’s favorite activities on a date is going for a long hike.

Look of love: Women with green eyes always get his attention.

Family man: On some weekends, Joe spends time in his home-borough of Queens, joining his aunt and grandmother for brunch.
