HELLO EVERYONE. THANKS FOR ENTERING MY WORLD. I HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL STAY HERE AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO TO MAKE YOUMORE COMFORTABLE, SIMPLY LEAVE A NOTE OR SIGN MY G-BOOK AND I WILL TRY TO ACCOMMODATE YOU.
On the subject of FRIENDSHIP ~
if you get to know me, you WILL like me for I am happy, down-to-earth, and easygoing! I believe that honesty, open communication, and trust form the foundation on which a "real" friendship can be built and, since trust is an essential element of ANY friendship (in the case of cyberspace friendship-crucial!); I want to emphatically state that I’ve no time for mental gymnastics. Feel free to "click off" now, if that`s your objective. :-)
On the subject of HONESTY ~
regarding honesty, I may not always agree with or like what you say but I’ll respect, admire and like "you" more for being straight. If you can appreciate that attitude, keep reading.
on the subject of EXPECTATIONS ~
I have no "expectations" of any Woman who may contact me other than that your conversation is straight-up, that you talk to me with respect, courtesy, and some degree of intelligence, and that you are open to developing a valued friendship. I’ll extend the same to you. Should we find that some romantic chemistry exists, all the better. If not, we will at least have made a new, "valued" friend. Are you still with me?? :-)
on the subject of DISTANCE ~
Please remember that this is a "mobile society" so 1,000 miles in distance today can be as little as "one mile" tomorrow. Ergo, distance should not be a barrier when seeking happiness.
on the "Getting to Know You Phase" ~
Like everyone else on this wonderful Black Planet, I am also a multi-faceted individual but, rather than display those facets here and now, I’ll allow you to see them, one-on-one, as we travel through the "Getting to Know You" Phase. Can you handle that?<o:p>
For me, a relationship has value only if it is genuine. And the only way to know that it is genuine is to entrust yourself to the other person. You know that this kind of closeness implies a certain amount of risk...you might be taken advantage of...but you are willing to accept this risk. The more you share with each other, the more you risk together. The more you risk together, the more each of you can prove your caring is genuine.<o:p>
