About Me
I am genuine, honest, compassionate , dependable and down to earth person. I am easy going and friendly but a little shy at first. A bit of an introvert who likes being with people.
I grew up in Europe, I came to Canada in 1994 and I felt home immediately. I am such a proud Canadian.
I like to read, I always did. I grew up without a TV, so books were my entertainment. I am a lifelong learner, with a curious mind, interested in learning and experiencing new things. I like almost every type of music, including jazz, blues, classical, even country music, but heavy metal and rap are not my cup of tea. I enjoy cultural events, live music venues, life theater….. I love the city, but I also love walking on the beach or country side. I love animals from the distance, I am allergic to cats. I love to travel, but I really love the solace of the home. I am very close to my family and my friends.
I live a relatively drama free life and I have lived that way all my life….. What am I looking for ?? I could make a list of what I want and who I am – and it would sound wonderful. However at the end its all about that intangible chemistry, that I imagine we are all looking for, just saying…..
In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you….
What I learned in the last years – not to wait for things to get easier, simpler, better. Life can be complicated, but we need to learn to be happy today, right now, otherwise we will run out of time.

Subject: ABOUT ME
Hello (name removed),
Is nice to hear from you and i am very happy to be your friend. You are such a beautiful woman and i believe we are meeting for a good purpose because friendship is a natural gift and a foundation for happiness. No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other worth and is only friendship can take one to unexpected pleasure.
I am a nice person and i assured you that you will like me when you get to know me better because i respect the law of friendship which are faithfulness, honesty, trust and sincerity.
My name is Thomas Marin, I was born 06/02/1958 and i hope you do not have any problem with my age because i believe age is number and what determines friendship is the ability to make each others happy, I am 6’1 tall, I am a mixed Italian and British background, I am an Engineer by profession i work in the oil and gas sector as a drilling contractor, presently i am working in the oil and gas drilling platform/RIG here in Port Arthur, Texas offshore. please do not worry about my work because i am willing to go out of the offshore soon because i will love to meet you for dinner as soon as possible so that we can spend time together to learn more about each other i love quality discussion. I am a widowed after i lost my wife two years ago to Automobile accident and ans the girl with me is my only daughter is a real wonderful girl who loves to play with me. lol.
I am a hard working man i have been working all my life and i hope to have an amazing retirement soon, I love traveling and camping, shopping and boating, golfing, reading romantic and inspirational books, I love sight seeing and i love driving on a road trip and i have a great taste for automobiles, Life is beautiful to live with someone beautiful at heart, I am adventurer and i love seeing new places.
I am a fun loving man both sensual and sexually, I am also a God fearing and I have a good sense of humor, I am family oriented, faithful in a relationship, open and honest, respectful of others, Humorous, loyal, honest, good looking, optimistic, realistic, jovial, tolerant, self-confident, active, friendly, intelligent, helpless romantic and i am Financially independent. I am also a good listener because I love to listen to others opinion. I am a good lover of music and i love slow dancing. I drink socially and i do not smoke but i do not have problem with smokers.
I have a true respect for friendship because i believe we can do so much with a friend behind us and when i mean a friend i mean a friend who will never take advantage of you because i believe friends are like stars, there’s always some around but you just need to find your favorite one and i hope that we will find that favorite in each others when the right time comes. I am not a color freak person but my best Colors are Black, Blue and Red so what are yours? I love flowers because i believe flowers are symbols of affection.
Please i love to know more about you because you seem to be a wonderful person but i do not love to judge a book but its cover until the content of a book is read, friendship is knowing what we like and dislike and friendship is understanding of interest and opinion. sometimes people come into our lives and walk with us a mile, and then because of circumstance they only stay a while. They serve a need within the days that move so quickly by, and then are gone beyond our reach, we often wonder why. God only knows the reason that we meet and share a smile, why people come into our lives and walk with us a mile.
I have so much to tell you about me but i really have to stop here until i hear back from you because friendship is not what we can accomplish one day but the journey of friendship starts in a day, I am waiting to hear from you soon. Yours Sincerely.

My Dearest Queen
I will say it is a great blessing and joy to have you in my life because you have given me the feelings i have never gotten for a long time since my wife left me. I just want to finish everything that i have to do about work so that i will be able to have time for you when the right time comes because i have so much in my heart to do for you if you are the right woman for me because i know what i can do for the right woman for me and i also know what i can not do but i will do everything i can to protect and support who ever belongs to me.
The first day i met you i knew that you were going to be a great person in my life but we are still waiting for the day of judgment, I love to know what your true tensions are because my intentions are true and to spend the rest of my life with special someone, Friends are like stars, you can’t always see them but you know that they’re there that is why i believe that friendship is natural because what will be will be. I am looking for my best friend who will bring out the best in me because My best friend is the one who will bring out the best in me because i know that i have a great life to live in the future. A friend is someone who will always be there when everyone else fails.
I want the time to come very soon so that i will be able to be with you and spend time with you and know more about you because i do not want our feelings to be based on photos and love emails but spending time together will help us build the relationship in a way that no condition can break. Values are only measured by the importance it has to you and the only way for you to determine a value is when you can feel them. but i want you to understand that Only God’s creations can compare to the beauty that I see in you because you are like the special someone i have been looking for all these years after my wife left me.
It is easy to say i love but doing the love is a responsibility that takes two to accomplish. there are so much we have to think about like our past and our future, remember there is never future without past. I really do not know if you have been hurt before in any way but i promised that i will never do anything that will hurt you, I will love to learn more about your past so that i will know how to make a future for us because i want us to build a safe future together, I want to heal any wound in your heart if there is any, Love means making person happy and i promised that i will do everything to make you happy if you are the special someone for me.
At this stage of our friendship, communication is very important because the person you talk to everyday is the person you will always think about everyday, sometimes out of sight is not out of mind if there is a good communication. love means do not wicked, do not harm and always wish the second person what you will wish yourself and never did to him or her what will hurt you when another person does it to you. I will love to travel to beautiful places with you if you are that special someone for me because i want to explore with my love, I want to chase my dream with my love and i want to get to the end of the world with my love.
My heart is good and full of beautiful things to give away. Love is beautiful that is why anyone in love is always happy because you cant be in love without being happy because happiness is a complement of love, I love traveling and shopping together, vacation and camping together, doing early morning walk and playing golf with me, a woman i can cuddle and never get tired keeping her warm. I want to build a love that will last forever because i believe that hundred years of being together does not guarantee love, but trust and understanding each others guarantees love, true is a product of good heart and sincere conscience.
I will love to see you in a most beautiful way that no other person sees you because everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it, I want to be the only man to see that beauty in you so that i will be the only man to love you and i assured you that my love for you will be more than enough for you. A special someone is always there and it will never Leave or Betray, A special someone will tell you the truth, and will never turn away! Life is never complete without forever friend! I want to be your forever friend, but i want you to understand that a special friend is hard to find, difficult to leave and impossible to forget, a true friendship is worth more than money and power because power only last the hour, but a genuine friendship withstand the sky above. I want to dedicate this song to you and i hope you will love it, titled THANK GOD I FOUND YOU and I love listening to this song when I am thinking about you.
Please i will love to have your mobile so that we can text each other and also hear each others voice at your convenient because i want to do everything at your best timing, I am sending you more photos that i just found on my email and i hope you love them, at this time i cant snap more photos because i am working in the oil and gas drilling platform where camera activities are restricted as the platform policy implies otherwise i will be fired for violation of law. I am waiting to hear from you soon and i want us to start planning our meeting from now because i want us to plan everything ahead of time because i love to plan for anything i do that is why i hardly make mistakes, Beauty is like a book, it cannot be judged by its cover.
I want to be your forever friend and what is your purpose, hope to hear from you soon, Yours truly.

My Dearest Queen*:) happy,
I just want to let you know that you are such a lovely girl and there is nothing better than thinking about a wonderful girl like you and i also can not wait for the moment to be with you so that we can plan our future together, I want to have a long vacation with you so that you and me will be able to be together alone and learn about each others before planning future, friendship means being friendly and free with each others as life always has the best to give to those who practices true love.
In the life of a man nothing is really important than having a reliable and faithful wife because every man needs a defense of a faithful woman because many women have considered marriage as business as they quickly file for divorce just to have certain percentage of asset but i want my love for you to grow stronger everyday because we are too old for any game at our ages.
I want to grow old with you and I wish you could read my mind and see the joy inside me all because I have found you because you are the nature of a woman I have spent all my life looking to spend the rest of my life with. not all women are woman but you are a true woman because you gave me all the true feeling I have desired to have from a woman and i believe that friendship is always guarantee by the feelings for each others, I believe husband and wife are help mates because God gives husband to help his wife and a wife to help her husband and I promised to support you with everything I have because I want us to live as a happy union and as forever friends.
I would really love to chase my dream with a wonderful woman like you and where you are is where I will forever love to be, love is a sacrifice and being together forever is a decision which I have taken to be with you both good and bad times.
I believe every woman is jealous if truly in love with a man because women hearts are also fragile that they don’t want to lose their man, please I want you to protect my heart so that I don’t have to be afraid of losing you because I want to take you as everything that gives me joy and i also want to be the man who gives you all the joy and hope for a better future which is my promise for you.
Let make it 100/100 and not 50/50 because in the responsibility of love you have to do your best and i have to do mine. My promise is that if you keep your own promise I will keep my own too, and I know everything is going to end with praises.
My dear angel I have a lot to share with you and I will love to wait till the right time comes when we can meet face to face because I am not very good at online expression so that I don’t end it giving my heart to a wrong person, I want is to spend time together and learn more about each other because everlasting relationship is not built one day but I want us to make a good foundation that will make it forever.
I am ready to meet you at any time and I will love to know when is convenient for you so that we can meet for a date and have a dinner together for a long time physical discussion to get to know each others better and see what future holds for us but remember i am not changing my mind for you but i want to spend the rest of my life with you.
I dedicate this song to you and I hope you love it, I want you to be my endless love and I will be yours because we belong together, honey please listen to this song with an open heart for me.
I promised i will keep all my promises but remember love is a responsibility of two people, if you keep your promise i am keeping my own,
Love you now and forever.
Yours forever Love.

The lines and what’s between them …
Oh Look, on screen
Theres A nice guy
hoping to be seen
He’s looking too,
eyes of blue
six foot five and so alive !
Might he be somebody, maybe a chance with you?
He’s hoping to meet- special that lady
He’s one that’s true, never me never one that’s shady
He likes shopping, restaurants and travel
needs a relationship that won’t unravel
He’s fit , with wit, rides a mountain bike when it’s sunny
Light hearted and smart, you’ll find him funny –
A man like milk? he’s the two percent
About 98% good, a little bad is where the other went
So if you dare, his type is rare
He got it, it’s real it’s spectacular, it’s hair hair hair
Looking for sassy, classy, refined & true
We each have our lives, but now we are two
He loves sharing
It’s inherent to out pairing
There isn’t much he will do
unless it has caring
Now he’s a news junkie, curious and tall
Fun is a show, a picnic, even the mall
At this age it’s about together
Quality and time in any weather
So hard he’ll notice think and work
For you It’s a relationship perk
The Headline could read …..
Older guy with younger heart
What it really means
is how about a fresh start
He’s got stories to tell, but that will come later
Of Shared dreams & passions -to those he will cater
Lastly He sees great ladies and really wants to try
So give him a hello, a goodbye, a sigh or a fast hi
