From his fake facebook profile: About Joseph
I would describe myself as a sweet, loving and honest man,I'm looking for my soulmate,someone to spend the rest of my life with, maybe my special one too. I don't mind how old or what you look like. There aren't many things I don't like.

Since i first viewed your profile, i felt a great impulsion on me and ever since then i have been thinking about you , i thought you might be an end to my search or to say a realisation of my dreams because you are just what i am looking for and you know when i keep reading from you , i feel that is coming to be true and i pray and hope it does.I will go on the site and delete my profile because this is what i have been searching for the past 8years and i would not trade this for the whole world , so i want to see where this go and being a one man woman , i will give this a total chance and i am sure it will take me to where i want . I hope you have done the same and delete your profile on the site to see where we go from here so we can concentrate on each other and see what we have for each other...When I was a little boy,I dreamed of that one person that I would share my dreams, happiness and energy with ... I could not see her face but she was there.I always felt like she was out there, I just needed to feel her. I visualized the bond we would have and the courage she would give me to endure life's obstacles. All these years I was with others,and feeling my way through life, learning lessons that later on would prepare me to become the person that I am now. I have felt alone and sad. Then one day my eyes opened and I became that little boy again ... realizing that she is here now. Here in my world was the woman that I had dreamed of and I'd hoped would not miss our meeting in life ... that woman is you.And i want you to distance is not a problem at all.Now I'll answer What my expectations are from a serious relationship...
LOVE
TRUST
HONESTY
MONOGAMY
HUG & KISSES,KISSES AND MORE KISSES
FLOWERS OR SMALL GIFTS...JUST BECAUSE.
Joseph and Lisa Paul...
Hello,
Thank you for your lovely letter and how is your health,I am very happy you are the first member that am talking to me on this site and i will like to see where this ends,i
may cancel my membership soon if you're that angel sent from the above...How is life treating you over there ? i will like to ask you some questions below...I will reply back to
you by telling you everything about me......Sorry for all this question but here is were we can start from....Getting to know each other better...
I will do my best to answer the questions back.
It’s my very good pleasure to read from you ... I will like to tell you more about me...I love dancing,joking, I also love to read,I enjoy home life and different domestic affairs, making cozy home and creating something special in the kitchen. I can cook very well and I am especially good at baking tasty cakes.I like reading books in Psychology and Philosophy, the theater, arts, candlelight dinners, beautiful music and cozy romantic evenings at home.. I am honest,intelligent,affectionate, easy going, romantic, soft-spoken and sensual. I'm passionate, and much more!I'm "crazy" about all pets, especially dogs and cats. .. I also enjoy the outdoors, particularly the woods and mountains. And of course, I love the sun, flowers and walking along the white sandy beaches, feeling breeze from the water, watching the waves and listening to their tender whisper.– How is life treating you over there? I’ve had a good feeling about this year,… Anyway, onto your questions
1..What do you like in a woman? I love to look into eyes that reflect back my qualities. If I can see compassion, honesty and acceptance in a pair of eyes, then I can see a possible partner. I could only partner with a lady that respects my spiritual growth and authentic self, as I would hers – and the space, freedom and trust to do this.
2..Do you have kids? I have one beautiful daughter– Lisa(15yrs old but will be 16 yrs old in few days)
3..I was a Construction Engineering For a big company,I received my degree in Construction ENG, At the Moment ,I'm self employed.
4..What's more important to you, love or money?? Both love and unfortunately money, are important. Love is vital and money is essential. Having a partner who loves you with all their heart yet despises you because you cannot provide or because you spend more than you make is not a formula for a successful relationship. Love is so much easier when you do not have to struggle financially. However, if I had to choose between the two… I would rather be loved and poor than rich and loveless. What good is money with no one to share it with?
5..Have you ever been unfaithful to your mate?? Yes, I have been unfaithful in the past (my younger years). Since you brought up the ex situation, my last relationship ended in infidelity. I believe in karma; I cheated in past relationships, so in my last relationship, I was cheated on (although I was completely faithful). What goes around comes around, and I hope that I am done with paying for my past indiscretions.
6..What is the best feature about yourself?My best feature is maturity; it covers so many areas such as understanding, compassion, caring, appreciation, and so on. I am not a kid that is going to throw away something good because I need to sow my oats. I know that relationships (all) take effort to succeed and that no one is perfect. I know what real love is, and that it is unconditional and wonderful. If I do not love someone, I will not stay with them. When I do love someone, I let them know it (someway-somehow) on a daily basis. I am not afraid; I know that everyone has desires and I find pleasure in fulfilling those desires, so long as they are mature and comfortable enough with themselves to know what they want.
7..What do u do for fun and in your free time? I love music, I write, paint (occasionally), walk along the beach (especially with my daughter), sing (when I’m alone), watch romantic films.
8.... What’s your bad and good experience in meeting a woman on the Internet. Has it been so good or bad? When did you join this site and do you think it is possible to find what you are looking for on the internet? i just wanna share in your experience because i am very new out here. This is my first week on this site.. I did meet someone around four years ago, but after a few years it became apparent that we were really looking for different things. That’s why I want to go slow and get to know someone well before moving into a formal partnership as such. Sex can wait. Besides, I can smoulder – I don’t have to be on fire and blazing all the time, do I ?
9...How do you treat your woman? With respect, tenderness and with an honesty that is truthful, yet sensitive – that’s my goal. I don’t always succeed, but I don’t like failing to be an option – If both parties are open to honesty, there can’t be much that a couple can’t put behind them. I am not afraid of outwardly expressing my affections. I am tactile and loving with the right lady.
10..Who is your favorite actor/actress? I love all the Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Wars movies. I love Passion of the Christ that I cried so much during the movie. 300 was awesome, Love Story was sweet, Band of Brothers was an eye opener.
11.Name three people that have been significant influences/inspirations in your life, and why? My Mother, My Father & Miss Elaine Stone, my English teacher in senior school – I must have been around 15 years of age when she offered me the lead in the school play. The theatre changed my life – I ended up in drama school for two years. She saw something in me that nobody else seemed to do at that time in my life. I love her dearly for that. I wish we’d have kept in touch. It was only many years later that I discovered what an effect she’d had on my life and me.
12..Do you have any sisters and/or brothers? None, I'm the only son of my parents .
13..Describe in one sentence your outlook on life. Treat others as you would like to be treated!
14..What do you hope Obama will do for America and the world? Hopefully bring us together as one nation, as per Martin Luther King, Jr. sermon.He has done already more than I thought possible. By been elected President of this country he has brought back the admiration and love the rest of world had for America. I see hope in him. Minorities truly believe that now the government is for real. We are represented in the White House. Obama and his family are the face of the modern USA.
15..What is your favorite drink? (alcohol or non-alcohol)? I like water (I’m not kidding). I do enjoy a good wine. I always have Perrier water at home. I also drink coffee (prepared the Greek way) and all kinds of teas and herbal concoctions. I do margaritas, beer (like dark ale) and Bloody Mary. I daydream about having a Greek ouzo or retsina sitting at a fish tavern in the seaside of my home country. I drink for the pleasure and enjoyment of it. I don’t like the way some people drink, one beer after the other, one drink after the other, and they don’t even notice it.
16..If you could see you and your future partner taking exercise together, what would you both be doing? I practice yoga, hiking, walking and some running and bicycling. I would love to practice all of them with my partner. Exercising is like playing and my partner would be my first choice to take along in these activities.
17..What do you like the feel of most – fur or satin? (this is not an ‘animal rights’ question, it’s a tactile question) Fur is a garment made of the dressed hairy coat of a mammal, I would prefer Satin
18..What was the most significant year in your life to date, and why?The year I was born and the year I’ll die. For the in between years I’ll tell you another time.
19..How would you define peace? An ideal state of peace would be for everyone on this world to be healthy, feel safe, loved and needed. If all human beings felt like that then there wouldn’t be any need for wars, killings and all the nonsense that has been going on since humans became “civilized”.
On the other hand the best state of peace I can strive to have at a personal level is to make sure I stay true to myself. That has been a major struggle. I am eager to please others and also I like to be shown affection. That has taken me off my path several times. I am in peace when I know my loved ones are doing well and are happy. I am in peace when I battle my own fears. I am in peace when I am held by a woman I love.
Also I am in peace when I feel God by my side. I know he is always there but sometimes I forget.
I hope this puts a little more meat on the bone for you ??
Hope to hear from you soon.
With loving thoughts,
Joseph Paul...
Scammer moves quickly to stolen romantic quotes and poetry: For example, the first quote in this series stolen from lovingyou.com http://www.lovingyou.com/scripts/quotes/quotes.php?cat=lifeandlove&start=271
It's not the presence of someone that gives life a beautiful meaning, it's the way that we might have touched our heart that gives life a beautiful meaning.It's not about how much love we have in the beginning but how much love we build till the end.""Love is a noble act of self-giving, offering trust, faith, and loyalty. The more we love, the more we lose a part of ourself, yet we don't become less of who we are; we end up being complete with ourself.". "What's meant to be will always find a way."Always remember that through the tormoil love may bring, the heart sees what the eyes cannot.""Some say love is life, but love without hope and faith is an agonizing death.Yes,We got here safely late in the evening Yesterday and we needed to get some rest and sleep...I'm so exicited and everything is going on just fine,We got very tired yesterday after a long trip,Immediately we got here yesterday i tried getting my laptop connected so that i can be able to send you an email to let you know that we got here and wasnt able to get it connected until this A.M for the lord so good it has been connected.Yes,it was very tiring and exhausting,We've settled down in the hotel.When we were born, we were crying and everyone around us were smiling.Lets Live our life so that when we die, we would be smiling and everyone around us will be crying."The love we have is God's gift to us, what we do with it is our gift to God.If we enjoy our life to its fullest, love will come and keep our company."One must learn to love oneself before one can learn to love others.Lets Make it perfect, we never know when the last time will be."Since we love, we cannot take it back, cannot undo it. What we felt may have changed, shifted slightly, yet still remains love.I love you and i Thought about you the whole day yesterday and up to this moment You're in my thoughts my Love....All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.To love someone is nothing. To be loved by someone is something. To love and be loved by someone is everything,though we are far away from each other but very soon we would surely be together, but yet your love remains in my heart, I can feel it all around.!!!
Life is so unpredictable. Changes always come along, in big or small ways. I don't know what happened that this sudden change has turned my world upside down. I don't know exactly what it is, it just hit me, but there is something really special about you.It might be all the things I see on the surface, the things that everyone notices and admires about you, qualities, capabilities and a wonderful smile obviously connected to a warm and loving heart; these things set you apart from everyone else. But it may also be the big things ... the person you really are that I hope to know more someday. And it might also be the little things..I receive so much joy just being able to see a smile in your eyes. If I ever figure out the magic that makes you so special, I'd probably find out that it's a combination of all these things. You are a rare combination of so many special things. You are really amazing.Inside of me there is a place where my sweetest dreams reside, where my highest hopes are kept alive, where my deepest feelings are felt and where my favorite memories are safe and warm. I find that you're on my mind more often than any other thought. Sometimes I bring you there purposely just to make my day brighter. But more often, you surprise me and find your own ways into my thoughts. There are even times when I awaken, I realize that you've been a part of my dreams. Then during the day, when my imagination is free to run, it takes me into your arms and allows me to linger there knowing there's nothing I'd rather do. I know my thoughts are only reflecting the loving hopes of my heart because whenever they wander, they always take me to you.Only the most special things in my world get to come inside my heart and stay. And now, I realize how deeply my life has been touched by you..I promise you this: I will never cheat, lie or do anything to hurt you. You make me feel so good inside and so happy that I still can't believe it. It's so amazing being with you because you're such an amazing person. I hope that we go out for a long time. I don't know what the future holds - that's something only God knows. I love you, Baby, and hopefully always will...
Hugs and Kisses,
I love you so much and miss you dearly honey...
