My mom had baptized me in Pentecostal church, but she was good Christian and my
father just believed in God. I am a searcher for the truth between earth and heaven
since I was young, so I had to study very deeply all religions. Nowadays I say that
all religions are good, but we interpret it to every one like we want and I believe
in some superior power, (you can called God, universe, power of mind, anything you
want) I believe that we are not alone; we are not the only planet that has life.

you think wrong of someone, you are doing the wrong to your self first.

than you. I'm 49 years old.

How many relationships have you been into before you came into online dating?
I had three (3) deep relationships in my life; The first I had was when I was still
a teenager with a girl named Amber, we were both attending the same school she was
from Milan, then we used to see each other everyday, helping one other with our
assignment, unfortunately our final exam at high school, she told me that her
parents will be living the country for Canada and she was going with them also, I
felt like wooh!!!, that means that you are going to live me, she said she does not
know what to do, so they left I was really unhappy during that period.
The second was with my late wife and was my longest met her at New York. After her
death I stayed a year and 5 months alone were I had a very special lady Named Ana;
she was from Wyoming, I thought I was going to get married to her. We stayed 3
months together and I later found at that she was lieing and has been cheating on
me, so I had to brake up with her and it hurts so much and so bad. Since then I
have been single and I decided to come into online dating and find my soul mate.

everything, but of course with every experience you learn more how to deal, and
always there is something new for you to discover.

What attracts you to a man?

Truthfulness and respect. It really makes me get closer to a lady. Its all about
the person inside; I do consider that more important because beauty fades with time
but the person inside appreciates with time.

woman like you who is family oriented is an added advantage to me.

What are your likes and dislikes?

I like real things; I like honesty, truthful, caring and obedient person. I dislike
dramas, cheating, lies, disrespect, racist & Betrayal. I want someone that will
love me for me, regardless of age, distance, language barrier, cultural differences
or material purpose. Because I do believe love knows no barriers and is the
conquers all things.

So what do you expect from me?

I want you to treat me right, be truthful and honest with me, because I do believe
in the Gospel truth and that's what I want. A long term relationship with someone
like you... I want to feel true love and happiness with you and share everything
with you based on Love, Trust & Understanding.

i will call my own and love her unconditionally.

If you could change something about yourself, what would it be & why?
I would change how I tend to dwell on the past, because it's really dragging me
down lately. Our experiences in life made us who we are. No one is free from
difficult times in life or what some may call baggage. How you've dealt with those
experiences will determine if you're damaged or resilient. I'm a prime example of
resilience and not looking to do damage control. I understand everyone has old
baggage, but I want someone who has put the old baggage up for old memories and is
ready to create new memories. Life is short and you never know about tomorrow, so
if you want to live life "like there is no tomorrow.

special someone, because I donít believe I'm destined to travel this road alone. I
look forward to sharing my last journey in love, laughter & friendship. Loving a
woman is no longer enough for me. The genuine friendship that develops, enjoying
each others company, the ability to communicate oneís needs, desires, hopes &
dreams, for me, will sustain the relationship. I may not be perfect, but I am
perfect for someone. Looking for my "Lover and Companion" to live a fun loving life
