Find out if WE want a second date.

I've learned that I long for someone who is willing to
try new things and be open to the moment. I believe
that there is someone out there who not only will
think out of the box but will think in someone else's
box.

Now for your entertainment I will answer the question for this box: Some relationships, those when I was a young teen gave me a clue that women are not easy to understand. When I got older, I wished I were more responsible with A woman. Now, middle aged, I have since dated many women after my divorce and annulment and after we stopped dating we were mature enough to remain friends. Perhaps keeping the value of each person has been so very rewarding.

True intimacy takes time, trust, and the willingness to be completely vulnerable, but it is the only thing worth having in a relationship. A really good one is like a three layer cake: emotional intimacy + physical intimacy + spiritual intimacy. Give me a big slice of that!

It is important to me. I go to Church each week. I could write a book so that should tell you it is important. Perhaps the most important factor in being Catholic is our ability to on our own free will reconcile with God -- I try for every week, but sometimes I slip a few weeks. I am not without fault.

Married would be wonderful. I am open to kids, but raising my own without a wife was and is hard -- my kids are at the age of "can I have the car key's dad -- see you later can I have them please". So, the teen years are tough.

Using my skills to create off shore banks and help third world countries, with the money. In my younger years I aided the design and construction of water and sewer plants. I would like to do that for the poor -- and without the red tape we have in the USA using the syndication from the banks I created., borrowing at the loan discount rates of selective nations.

In short I would like to finance the projects I design to make clean water and sewer for the poor, and make a living as a mission doing it.

Heck, I am in God's hands.....I may find a wife and just settle somewhere or where I am now settled........I am open to it all -- His will not mine!

There are too many to say I have a favorite.

But here is a good one:
1 corinthians 13:4-8. 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

I am a practical Catholic. I would prefer to live outside the US, not that I am unwilling to live in the US, I just prefer outside of the US. I have traveled to almost 50 nations. They were interesting to live in and some I think are nearly ideal to make a home in. I would like to have a home in the US and one (or two) somewhere that allows for better tax planning, fun, ect......I prefer to chat with ladies who have posted a photo, or will send me one by e-mail. I will reply even if you don't have a photo.....seems fair since the ladies can have a look at me now. Peace....
