Please, please, please....if you intend to come at me in search of friendship or more, please come correct. Don't let your initial message to me be "How you doin boo", "What's good", or "UR sexy" and please don't include any cursing. I really don't care how beautiful or sexy you think that you are, if you don't attract my mind as well as my eyes I won't be interested in friendship with you and definitely nothing else either. On another note, I am a man and I do appreciate a beautiful woman. I'm not adverse to a woman showing her sexiness off a bit. I don't mind a little skin but if just about ALL of your pictures are nearly nude and in provocative poses, what kind of message are you trying to send? Are you looking for real friends and possibly a future boyfriend/hubby or are you looking for dogs that only want you for one thing? I'm no hypocrite. I'm not going to pretend that I don't like to see sexy women. Like I said, I do like beautiful women and I do like a little skin. I appreciate a nice derriere as much as the next man. It's just that some of the most beautiful women that I have ever seen take things a bit too far here on the internet. I've seen some beautiful women who would look good dressed in a potato sack yet they seem to feel that the only way to get attention is to take a picture bent over in a thong. Proverbs 11:22..."Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion." Also, I AM NOT GAY, BI, CURIOUS, OR ON THE DOWN LOW!!! 1 Corinthians 6:9....."Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders." God made man and then made woman from man, for man. I am all man and I ONLY LIKE REAL WOMEN! To each his or her own. It's not for me to judge anyone and that's not what I'm doing. I hope that no one takes this the wrong way. I'm not full of myself or anything. I know that I am far from perfect. I have a chipped front tooth. My skin is not perfect. I'm a little stubborn. My feet are ugly...lol. I have other flaws as well. I'm not trying to act like I'm Mr. Perfect. I just know what I want and don't want. I'm only trying to let everyone know how I feel ahead of time so that we don't waste each other's time. I accept almost all friend invites here on BP. I don't accept people's invites if their page is full of cursing or if they have way too many provocative pictures. So if your page is not X Rated or even NC-17 I'll probably accept your invite. *******May 22 - Update!!! Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I no longer accept invites from people without photos in their photo section. Several times I have accepted invites from people with nothing on their pages. On more than a few different occasions now, I have gone back to previously blank pages only to find things that I find inappropriate for the whole world to have access to. The least you can do is put those pictures on the friends only setting. That is far more acceptable to me than to just let everyone in the www see your goodies. Now as I have stated before, I am no hypocrite. There's nothing wrong with showing a little sexiness. I show a little skin myself. If my pictures offend you, you can simply remove me from your friends list. Some people just take it too far for my taste. To each his/her own. I'm still not judging anyone but my friends list is dictated by my taste. Also, some of us need to expand our vocabulary beyond ni@@a this and ni@@a that, bit@# this and bit@# that. Thank you.********

-A lot has changed on BP over the years. The same can be said for me. I have also done a lot of changing...and dare I say..maturing. The most important change in my life is that I am now a man of God. I am constantly striving to improve my relationship with God and walk in the footsteps of my Savior Jesus Christ. I am far from where I want to be in my spiritual journey but it is a major focus in my life. Another major focus in my life is to be the best father for my children that I can be. I am a widowed single father rearing two very handsome young men (9 and 6 years old) who are quite a handful. It is vitally important to me that I do the best job possible so as to properly prepare them to become happy and successful assets to society rather than negative statistics. I am not looking for a mother. I have been doing fairly well on my own for the past 5 years. Their mother (my wife) is in Heaven after passing away following a traffic accident. She is watching over us and I intend to do her proud. I am also the proud papa to an incredibly beautiful 3 year old little girl. Her mother and I are doing our best to bring our daughter up as a team despite the fact that we are not together. God and my children are the most important factors in my life and no one comes before them. I very much enjoy working out. I am 5'11'' and I weigh around 230 lbs. I greatly appreciate the health benefits that I believe come along with being physically fit and I can not deny the fact that I enjoy the aesthetics of a physically fit body. Don't judge this book only by the cover though. I have a Bachelor's degree. I majored in psychology and minored in philosophy. I intend to pursue my Masters in English/English Lit. Don't let the muscles and tattoos fool you. I'm not just some meat head or typical wanna be thug. I consider myself to be a well rounded individual who appreciates many things. I love to acquire new knowledge and enjoy being able to converse with a wide variety of people. I believe that faith is true power but knowledge can certainly be powerful as well. I would like to meet people with whom I have some things in common. I would not mind meeting people that I have nothing in common with as well. One day I hope to meet "THE ONE". She and I will share many commonalities and, I"m sure, quite a few differences. Together we will form a wonderful pair. I will be her Ephesians 5:25 man and she will be my Proverbs 31:10 woman.

Time to update this thing a little bit. I've been back on BP for a few months now after a nearly 6 year hiatus. I have received tons of notes from very positive people and I appreciate them all. I have met some very nice people. I have not yet explored the possibilities of getting to know "the one" yet but that's not for lack of top quality women here. I am kind of a hard person to get to know. I am a highly protective father who refuses to bring my children around any woman until I think that there might be a possible future between her and me. It may take weeks or maybe even months before I feel that way. It kind of makes dating and getting to know someone very difficult but it's my choice. I refuse to parade woman after woman in front of my boys. I don't want them to ever think that a real man has a dozen different girlfriends or changes women as often as he changes the tissue in the bathroom...lol. Then there's the fact that I am a very picky man. Beautiful women come in all shapes, sizes, and colors but I have my preferences and I am unapologetic about that. Anyone who claims to not have preferences is most likely not being honest with themselves or whomever they told that lie to. Is is a bad thing that milkshakes come in all different flavors but I prefer strawberry? I like BMW over Mercedes. I prefer cooler weather over heat. I prefer physically fit women over those who choose not to, or say that they don't have the time to, work out. The point that I am trying to make is that everyone has their preferences. Am I in control of these preferences? Am I, or anyone for that matter, supposed to apologize or feel sorry for having a preference? I don't think so but I will apologize in advance anyway to anyone who may feel offended if you are not my type. I pray that we can still be friends.

Okay, I know that this thing is getting wayyy too long but I like answering questions before I even get asked. This time I may be a little behind with some people but maybe I'll answer the question before some other people ask me. What am I looking for in a woman? I'm looking for the total package. I want a woman who is more than just a pretty package. I want a woman who is more than just a great person. Why can't I have a great person in a pretty package? Why can't she be as intelligent as she is beautiful? Why can't I enjoy looking at her as much as I enjoy conversing with her? Why can't she be as sweet as she is driven? I'd like for her to be independent yet still be willing to admit that she needs a man for, if nothing else, companionship. Physically, I like petite women and fit women. I consider myself to be somewhat into fitness and I'd like for my woman to also be into fitness. I am a single parent just as many women are yet I manage to find a way to work out 4 - 5 times per week. I prefer women around 5'6'' but , as I stated before, beautiful women come in different sizes. I love pretty eyes. I like long hair, nice lips and a pretty face. I like a woman with a nice sense of style. You don't have to be all into certain name brands but please look good when you leave the house...not like you just crawled out of bed, bummy, or ghetto fabulous. Mentally, I like an educated woman but you don't have to hold a college degree to be intelligent. Can you hold a decent conversation about things that are not found in a grocery store tabloid or on MTV/BET? Can you write a decent note to me? You don't necessarily have to have a college degree to do those things. Education and intelligence don't always go hand in hand but I'd like for my woman to have at least one. Spiritually, she MUST love Jesus Christ. She must be God-fearing. She must attend church on a regular basis and practice what she learns in there and in the Bible. I am striving to be the best person that I can be but I would like for my woman to make me want to be an even better person. People often say that they are looking for their other half, that they want to be complete. I am not looking for anyone to complete me. I believe that if I am not already whole then I am not ready to offer myself to anyone else. You can't have peace in a relationship if you don't have peace in yourself, your spirit. Who wants only a portion of me? Who wants me if I'm struggling with inner turmoil? I need to be whole in order to be able to give my all to someone and my relationship. God fulfills me. I fulfill me. Together we make me whole. I don't NEED a mate to fulfill me or to complete me. I WANT a mate to share in my life and my happiness. She should also be ready, willing, and able to give me her all. I say that there are women who have it all going on for themselves and I am determined to find one for myself. Although I am so ready to settle down, I am not ready or willing to settle for less than what I want. Why should I settle for less than what I want when I have demanded and God has promised all that I want and more in life? So if you are a woman of God who is pretty, intelligent, sexy, driven, sweet, giving, fun to be with, etc. then I am looking for you...no, I am waiting for God to present you to me when the time is right! Is the time right? Are you the one?
