John M, 60 Geneva, Switzerland:
Nice to meet you!
How are you doing?
Okay, fresh good morning to you over there.
I am from Geneva Switzerland and live in Glasgow United Kingdom. What about you, do you have any kid and what line of work are you in?
Good to hear that, I need your number to enable us communicate in WhatsApp.
How about your husband? I am a widower, have only one daughter. She is a medical student in Switzerland.
I am an independent contractor
Okay,
I want us to develop love that can hold a relationship
What do you think?
I am here to find myself a matured woman who can value and Enjoy my love.
Age is never an issue but understanding, love, truth and trust. I am not in need of child but a companion.
Distance is not a problem to any progressing relationship, for me, I can relocate to have a companion, since I am independent.
Okay, think very well.
I am independent contractor based on oil rings
I work mainly with PATRONS
Do you know I have not made use of your phone number because you are thinking since then
So, have you finished thinking?
I just called you
Is me John Mark that called you.
i wouldnt be typing if i wasnt
Okay, are you in relationship with any of them?
Hi dear, you could not answer my call well. You aid you have many John and I asked, are you in relationship with any of them, up till now you have not answered my question.
I hereby wishing you a happy weekend. May you give me your email address I like us to have the means of the communication
I wrote to you in email. Enjoy your Sunday
My tel: 447708401293
Remember to start the number with plus sign +
Why are you delaying? I sent to you a message in Email and you have not replied to it
You don’t go to the email all the time and you don’t have WhatsApp, it is even hard for you to answer my calls so how are we going to make it when you don’t communicate
I am a busy fellow my dear but when something Important come, I have to make time for it. Relationship need steady communication
We are friends here and also with email but you are making our friendship too slow which is not good.
Why don’t you amend things just like I did so we can communicate to achieve something
I can understand you you don’t like communicating with me even in email. “Anyway” I can’t force you into relationship, is is more better you go for your choice, if you don’t want me, kindly tell me and I will understand. I am here writing to you not because I am less busy but because I need you in my life. If you can understand it, bring out time for us to communicate more than before. It is very important in relationship.
I will like you to do me a favour with $2000. I will give you back soon. I have a little problem in my contract
To solve a problem I have along the line at work. I will give you back soon before coming to see you

From: John Mark Owen johnmarkowen17@gmail.com To: XXXX Sent: June XX, 2017 Subject: Re:
I am very happy reading from you and knowing that you enjoyed your Sunday. Thanks to you for the lovely and beautiful picture of yours.
To tell you more abut me. I am easy going and open minded person, easily get along with love and respect. I have a great sense of humor, love to tease with good jokes, talk many positive things, love to watch the movies at Theater and very humble and love to meet new friends with my smile, I am easy going fun, honest, caring. Nonsmoking and nondrinking. Good sense of humor. Distance shouldn’t be a problem to us at all, for the fact that we are ready to get to know more about each other and moreover I don’t mind relocating for the right relationship that comes my way. God’s timing is the best, I like to read God’s words. Like to garden, travel, my goal is to look for sweet and lovely woman. Think and talk positive way to get along, be happy in anything we do on daily life, love to share about our life, pray for each other and be strong with faith in God. That is what I am seeking through God’s guidance for my future. Thank you for your time and God bless you! Sometimes reality is the hardest thing to understand and the thing that takes the longest to realize. But once it hits us in the face we’ll never forget it. It will always be there in our memories and sometimes that is the best way to look at it. We seem to have some things in common and share some similarities as being a good friends. I enjoy working out and taking the fitness classes. It would be nice if the next person I meet also enjoys some sort of an active, healthy lifestyle. An attitude and willingness to stay active and involved socially is attractive to me, but stay active and physically fit through exercise and sports. I really feel and look much younger than my chronological age. So feel free to form your own opinion after you’ve met me. A woman to spend the rest of my life. I don’t want to be alone anymore because I have been lonely for a very long time. Hope you can be able to understand my feelings and let us build a relationship based on honesty, trust and sincerity.
Best regards. JOHN MARK.

More about me I like body surfing, beach vacations, camping, cooking, dancing, whitewater rafting and mountain views in the morning. I do attempt to play golf when time allows. I also enjoy grilling out. I think one should treat others as they would have others treat them. I’m ready for the right person to come into my life. I’m not afraid to be affectionate, hold your hand or express my feelings. I promise no drama and no games. I can also take charge, be a man and treat you like a lady. I believe “commitment” is eventually the key. But we can walk before we run. It goes without saying that I am a one woman man I don’t double date. Starting each day with a little flirtation and the power of touch does wonders. A quick phone call or email just to let someone know you’re thinking of them works too. I give a pretty good massage. It would be nice if we could bring out the best in each other. I am not into the bar scene, but will go with a group of friends. I do enjoy a nice dinner at restaurants and a movie and other events. I love meeting people! I’ve discovered that when meeting new people you never know what you’ll learn in the process. So if a nice, warm, caring, affectionate, good head on his shoulders, financially stable and physically fit guy piques your interest love to read from you soon…

About Me
I really don’t know what to say cause am all new to this but hey here it goes. My friends and family will describe me as, a fun loving man with a big heart to love and to care for that special one. I like body surfing, beach vacations,camping,cooking,dancing, whitewater rafting and mountain views in the morning. I do attempt to play golf when time allows. I also enjoy grilling out. I think one should treat others as they would have others treat them. I’m ready for the right person to come into my life and change my darkness to light. I’m not afraid to be affectionate, hold your hand or express my feelings. I can also take charge, be a man and treat you like a lady. I believe “commitment” is eventually the key. But we can walk before we run. Starting each day with a little flirtation and the power of touch does wonders. I am presently living alone. I would love to share,compromise, and enjoy day to day life. I like to cook and entertain, (BBQ and spicy smashed fish) thou have not done that for quite a while now. I love to swim, love to sit on the patio and play for my partner mostly on a raining day is perfect.. wink! I enjoy the beach, mountains at sunset. I need someone to share all these things with. It’s really difficult to find someone special, but I believe there is a soul mate for everyone who seek and I hope to find mine soon..
