I like all you've said in your email and have always believe we are all looking for the same thing here ever since I read your profile and no one will waste time on here while there's a lot of thing we need to do. Much about me, I describe myself as adventurous and romantic, strong and gentle, playful and mature, Religious, fit, and a non-smoker. I'm fairly deep, intelligent, observant, reflective, soft-spoken, and 'sweet' (I've been told).
I can be quite comfortable spending time relaxing watching a movie and sharing popcorn, taking a trip, or heading out to an exciting evening function; because it’s not about doing something, it’s about doing it together with someone you love! I’ve spent way too much time alone or doing activities by myself and I’m looking for someone who wants to enjoy life and looks forward to the next potential adventure around the bend in the road


My Height is 5' 10" 178 cm, My Ethnicity is Caucasian/White, My Body Type is Average, Dark brown hair and Brown eyes, I was born In England, I am Self Employed and comfortable. I am a Baptist. And I am Looking for a Serious relationship that's going lead to marriage, I hope you don't mind me having that. I don't smoke, I drink on occasions.


I'm caring, nice, loving, understanding, romantic, God fearing, faithful. Now comes to what I want In a woman, Well for me I don't think beauty really matters but what matters most Is true love and understanding which am I am looking for and hoping I will find my soul mate on here. My hobbies are reading, watching movies, swimming, hiking and climbing, traveling, listening to soft music's, long driving, I hate delay, that is sluggishness and procrastinating, I dislike lies. I love someone who is trustworthy. I love nature; well I believe that is one of those things in life because life is all about ups and downs. I like to meet new people and get to know new things in life and I believe that's what life all about.

My great dream for the future is to find the Woman who will be my best friend, my lover, my pupil, and my partner in all life's adventures, at the very least. I want someone to spend all my time with, sharing all the pleasures I've discovered in life, and that's a lot, believe me. I also want someone who Is very affectionate, because holding hands, touching and hugging and caressing are a basic part of my spirit.

I do like to travel and explore look forward to being able to travel all over the world some day. Won't be for awhile, but before I get to old. Smile... Need to find a travel partner to enjoy it with. Have you ever travel long distance before? Where have you traveled to? I've been to All about the Calif Coast, Chicago, Texas, Georgia, New Zealand, Washington state, Montana, France, Wyoming, Colorado, Michigan, Australia, Spain, Italy, Germany, Only been to Mexico and St. Marten once and I Look forward to seeing more of the world.

How has life been treating you without a Man? What exactly are you looking for in life? What do you expect from me? Tell me about your past love life.

I'm extremely reticent about my personal life, You know how It all happened when you start reminiscing sometimes, OK ... there we go, I was born In England and grew up around Kent, London, I went to Glamorgan College In UK, And to the nature of my job I'm into sales and marketing, I do Importing and exporting of Antiques, do you like Antiques. Smile, Anyway I have been married and lost my wife 8 years ago........She died of breast cancer,have 3 kids 2 Daughter with a boy, name Is Tessy 16,Britany 21 and John 14 years old, and due to my work, I do the traveling a lot and It Is just so hard for me to work and take care of the kids at the same time.

So my two girls stays with my mom since I lost her Mom. I only go to Venice, Italy, (That’s where they live) and my son live here with me in the state.....once In a while when necessary. My families have been the one who helped me accomplish all my goals in life and the first part of my life has been safely accomplished. My Dad and Mom based In Cairo, Egypt for 10 years due to my Dad's business, He is a Antiques business man and he normally took it to state to supply companies there In the USA, and his really doing good in it. My dad had been to so many countries. Well my mom had to move back to Venice, Italy when we lost my dad.

My Dad is originally from England and my mom Is Italian and also Half Germany, He died 6 years ago and my late wife died 8 years ago and that as been the bad experience in my life. Heart beaten, heartache and heart burn but I guess it heartening and heartfelt, just sometimes I don't know how to narrate about me.

Well, now am doing the same Antiques business and am comfortable with it, I am very comfortable with my Job; the business is really Profitable, My business as been quadruple since the last 3 years, now I have all my money in squirreled away in various bank accounts...lol. Smile.

I guess am supremo In the Antiques Business and I think Is just going to be my luck. I feel like getting one of my friends to write you a recommendation letter about me!!! I hope this gives you a clue about me
Love is like the seeds of life,
To root is full of pain and strife.
But to grow it’s like a great Oak tree,
Straight and strong for eternity.
Love is what I offer you,
Steadfast, calm and oh, so true!
Love is life between two who share,
A life between two who really care.
Good Morning
how was your nite,hope you had a lovely night rest?. Are on on messenger so we could chat better [url][email protected][/url].
Than they started to im eachother and he sent her a poem every morning than asked for her address and phone number. He said that he was going to call her the next morning but than never did and told her that he had a cold that affected his voice. He also ended up sending her flowers and the only thing that the card said was love you so much. He also was calling her babe, sunshine, baby, and angel and telling her that he loved her. The emails just started on September 10, 2012.
I found out that he has a facebook and the url for that is https://www.facebook.com/christopher.mathew.568
I am not sure that this person is a scammer but after reading some things on here it sounds like he is. My boyfriend told me to tell her to be careful that it might be a scammer so she has not talked to him since this morning. Please let us know what to do about this situation.

Hello rosebud13,

This is 100% a scammer as you suspected. All of what he wrote has been recycled tell your friend to google certain parts like "Cause honesty is the only key to human success and with honesty our dreams will just be the greatest and the best of all" and she will see its been used by multiple scammers. The flowers the scammer sent were purchased with a stollen credit card. This is a very common tactic of romance scammers. The person she is communicating with is not the person who the scammer stole pictures of off the Internet to create the fake Facebook profile but more than likely a black man from west Africa trying to steal her money.
