What is the dawn without the dew? the tear is rendered by the smile precious above the smile itself......... I loved my ex wife with all my heart, she was the deepest happiness in a life time and think she will be the one I can come home and lay my heard on. The one I always thought or think by sharing all point of view with.while thinking of her and thought she is the brighter side of my life.

I have learn To be a Strong woman have hard working my i lost my late father and mum i was working and schooling at the same Time that was how i was grow. I have been In a Relationship which end Up 2 years Ago because the guy was very unfaithful it has Cost me a lot Of pain and i am now Looking for a Loving God fearing and Responsible man To settle down with that is why i am Here So If you Interested Let get and know More about each Other ................... In any good relationship, there should be trust, communication, understanding, and honesty. Life is a precious gift from God, and it should be lived with love and joy. I enjoy various activities. I can bowl, skate, swim, play chess, checkers, draw, bike riding, a little fishing and crabbing, a little golf, have tried tennis, camping, sports etc. It does not matter. I am a very average versatile person, and not hard to please. I enjoy the complex as well as the simple things in life.. I am a very open minded person, someone who accepts people as they are, I am a fair individual who adapts to changes in life and enjoys life to the fullest,and looking to meet a woman that i can spend the rest of my life with in good times and in bad times as well, A woman that I can love and cherished with all my whole being and heart and I pray to God almighty that he will provide me with that kind of a woman someday in my life. I'm pride of myself in being honest and most trustworthy, I seek that in a mate, someone who is compassionate yet understanding who has a calm behavior and a great personality. I am looking for a partner and a lover and best friend who I can share the most intimate dreams with. A well rounded individual and a spiritual person. A first, second date for me does not constitute a perfect date, Nor a perfect person. I am easygoing man that seeks an easygoing woman in my life as well. I believe there is no ideal relationships, Be honest a relationship is hard work and compromise, It is as good as you make it, What makes a relationship ideal to someone is how much time and effort one puts into it and how committed two people are to it. I want to meet a woman that is tolerance level and how far she can go in life , If she is willing to stick around when the going gets tough and she will be there for me and I will be there for her too when the going gets tough on us. If she will still love me when I am falling apart. I generally try to live a somewhat healthy lifestyle, exercising and some sort of jogging, 3-4 days a week and eating healthy, (trust me, I love pastries, but try not to over do it. I would also like to find a like-minded female where we can participate in activities together and encourage each other to pursue our interests as well. I have several hobbies, and wish I could find more time to pursue those, such as swimming, playing vedio games, listing to musics, dancing, and reading, and more,and would like someone to share those with, as well as their sharing their interests with me I am generally an optimistic person with a good sense of humor, fairly easy-going, and I don't think that I'm too critical about things, but I also believe that it takes two people contributing to a relationship to make it work. As I mentioned earlier, I like to do things with the other significant person in my life, but I also encourage her to go out and spend time with friends and pursue her own interests and hobbies as well. I believe that time spent apart helps keep things fresh in a relationship and makes the time we DO spend together even better. I'm not one who cheats in a relationship; one woman is enough trouble, I don't have the time or energy to juggle 2, 3, or 4 at the same time - ha ha But I also want to be in a relationship where I can totally trust the other person and not dwell on how the relationship is NOT working. I DO NOT expect a woman to be a servant to me, spending all her time working and and cleaning; I believe there is give and take in a relationship, and I realize that at times it's more convenient for me to do laundry, cook, clean, and I have no problem doing that because I believe and I have being thought by my Father that it's also man's responsibility to do the house works and house chores as well. I consider myself to be a fairly honest and truthful person and expect the same in return; I'm not wealthy but I don't luck anything in life though so and don't expect someone to attempt to deceive me or "play" me. Everybody makes mistakes and I usually give people the benefit of the doubt, but if the same pattern keeps emerging, it's over I do not want to meet someone who may think that they will take advantage of me or lie to me and cheat on me under false pretenses. Sorry if that sounds harsh, and I'm not accusing you of any wrongdoing, but I'm being upfront and honest about that. So you know where I stand from the beginning. With all due respect as well, I hope that you are upfront and honest with me, as well. I realize that I am 47years old and soon to be 48and that you are somewhat younger than me but if you would still like to correspond, that's fine...we'll see how things go after we get to know each other. Well I hope that this lets you know a little about me, and I hope I don't come across as being too cynical, harsh, or mean sounding. I will give you the benefit of the doubt (we're all human, we all make mistakes), but I also don't like being taken advantage of. I'm just asking you to keep it real and be honest from the beginning; that way, nobody is wasting their time or getting their feelings hurt. I also realize that at times two people are just too different to be in a relationship together; it doesn't mean that it's anybody's fault, it's just that they're too different to be compatible. WHAT I LIKE DOING WITH MY LEISURE TIME / LIFE TIME I love poetry, books, walks on the beach and cozy candlelight dinners. I enjoy movies, television, music, traveling, the desert, the quietness of the mountains, the ocean, sunrises and sunsets. Well I am comfortable in jeans or a nice English suit. Am nonsmoker or drinker, not into drugs (don't need them; I live in a natural high). I believe in enjoying the good life and am high on it. I have a healthy attitude about God and the Bible. Well,I'm a very outgoing person, who loves to dine out travel and enjoy the simple life. I'm a hopeless romantic and very affectionate. I have a good sense of humor and I like to make you laugh. I like to chill out with a good book or watch and movie and its even more fun when you have a special someone to do this with. I'm very easy to get a long with and a very good listen...... I love To share My Time with People I Love and care e,friends and Family.well about my family i come from a very small unit Of Family My Mother,Father and I,which unfortunately my all my parents are now deceased. I am an honest,kind,caring understand and of good sense of humor,passionate heart that's looking for a stable relationship. I understand it is important to lay down lasting foundations for a lasting relationship. I am an active person who enjoys cycling and running best. I believe keeping fit is important. I am not interested in games or drama. I enjoy fine dining and am always looking for someone to share the appreciation of good food and fine wine. I am just as comfortable with my hair up in old jeans as with my hair down wearing my favorite little black t-shirt.I love to dance: All styles, disco, house, or swing. Well,Whenever am back to the state I like getting out and checking out local talent and live concerts, here or anywhere. I enjoy movies and music for relaxation. A quiet night at home is also enjoyed and welcomed. I am open to try different activities and up for the challenge. I love spontaneity and being a bit impulsive. I am continually attempting to function from the inside out and to go with my intuitive impulses, because sometimes the spontaneous actions are the most fun, not expected and purely delightful. As you can tell, I am not a baster and believe in total communication.... Not that we can do that all the time, but ultimately we can get the feelings out without too much delay, I hope. I believe in getting to know my partner and communication seems to be the best way to do this. I am adventurous. love to see new places and experience new things. I will always have the little kid in me ,even though I am very responsible !! love to play,I am on the computer getting into it more and more!!! dancing is important to me I want so badly to get better at it !!! It is such a positive way of having fun and expressing yourself,and you get to show your woman to the world on the dance floor like a beautiful flower equal partnership takes to to tango ,compromise ,communication is so important!!!! I will always be who I am at the core my soul my being who I am and what makes me ,Button!!! I am chuck full of potential I actually can be taught !!!!! LOL!!! woman need to be like a guiding light for men we sometimes have a tenderness to miss the little things ,not on purpose.man and a woman should work as a team together ,I cook ,clean,dust ,and do laundry WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR IN A WOMAN My desire is to meet a beautiful,sensitive, sensuous, warm, assertive single woman who wants a friend. My interpretation of a friend is one to whom you can pour out all the contents of your heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentleness of hands will take it all, sift it, keep that which is worth keeping and, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away. I thank you in advance for allowing me to be that kind of friend to you. I am looking for a special, loving relationship with a unique woman who is affectionate, beautiful, with a shapely figure, sincere, easygoing, with interests and characteristics similar to mine...someone who wants a meaningful, serious, long-term relationship...not just a few dates. Are you that special woman? I am looking for someone who has a great sense of humor and big heart, is curious about new things that would like to share new experiences or old habits. I am looking for someone who believes that a true intimate partner looks out for the other and vice verse. While navigating life together, we are caring and concerned for each others well- being because we make each other so happy and we love each other very much. Looking for a serious long term relationship with someone who possesses strong character and is goal-oriented.she must love the Lord with all of her heart,then I know she will love me with all her heart. She should enjoy good humor, love to laugh, and be a hopeless romantic.So that would make her a God-loving romantic woman......and God will approve.lol..... My ideal partner must love to take long walks...holding hands....when I am not giving her a "walk for her money"....Her yes must be yes, and her no, no. If you enjoy a good book, walks , watch what you put into your "temple"....just love praising God, can dance even a little..... But I also want to be in a relationship where I can totally trust the other person and not dwell on how the relationship is NOT working... As far as an ideal partner, i don't have a type....charisma, humor and charm come in many packages.....I care about honesty, integrity & sincerity u know the basics....Those who know its impossible to walk a righteous path and do right by everybody,.....but at least still try(emphasis on strong effort)....i am attracted to overtly passionate mature people who are totally comfortable in their own skin,..who know who they are(the good and the bad)and recognize their flaws, yet are unashamed (and not afraid to show) of the quirky, sometimes contradictory, eccentric aspects of their personality that define their individuality.....When u are genuine and sincere, people may not always love u.....but they usually respect u (at least that's been my experience).....I am interested in forming a positive, healthy and enjoyable friendship with a quality person(s). With regards to a relationships, i now want more from life than family and friends can offer. Meaning i would like to meet the type of WOMAN that really would enjoy sensually charged chemistry, laughter and uncomplicated real time meet and greets....Someone who is highly affectionate, passionate, loving, considerate and is happy with herself just the way he is today right now. While i too am highly passionate i am not interested in just mere sex alone, Additionally, I believe in and would like to continue learning to create and savor the simple pleasures in life, such as womanhood and learning more about myself as an individual...appreciating those often brief and fleeting moments of beauty & perfection (and not so perfect) for what they are.......nothing more nothing less. Lets communicate, I promise i will be a man and warm(with a bit of excitability at times as i am very high spirited and a bit humorous). I will approach u with hope, and an open dialogue to include a positive and productive goal with a genuine concern for the future of a healthy relationship(friend or otherwise). WHAT I EXPECT /HOPE IN A WOMAN But I wound wish all that on one person ever ,I know what it is to do all those things its allot to do and would drive any one person to either loose their mind or run away am the kind of person that is affectionate!! love to cuddle ,and get lost in kiss!!!! intimacy and foreplay is important along with romance!!!!!!!! I also am very ,very much into giving and receiving oral ,from the one I love and live with.I am a giver the more I make the one I love feel loved and explosive the more turned on I get the woman I love is like a rare fruit that I just can't get enough I also realize that at times two people are just too different to be in a relationship together; it doesn't mean that it's anybody's fault, it's just that they're too different to be compatible. Almost anything I love Italian food,Chinese,Taiwanese,Spanish,Portuguese,rice ,pasta ,chicken,deer,pork,fish,shell fish ,potato,vegetables ,everything but liver If you feel it would be good for us to meet, write and tell me more about yourself. And please have good thoughts about our further relationship, for thoughts are like seeds. All the flowers of all the tomorrows are in the seed of today. Everybody makes mistakes and I usually give people the benefit of the doubt, but if the same pattern keeps emerging, it's over. I do not want to meet someone who may think that they will take advantage of me or lie to me and cheat on me under false pretenses. Sorry if that sounds harsh, and I'm not accusing anybody of any wrongdoing, but I'm being upfront and honest about that, so you know where I stand from the beginning. With all due respect as well, I hope that you are upfront and honest with me, as well. I realize that I am 46years old and that you are somewhat younger than me, but if you would still like to us to correspond you are most welcome. Well, I hope that this lets you know a little about me, and I hope I don't come across as being too cynical, harsh, or mean-sounding. I will give anybody the benefit of the doubt (we're all human, we all make mistakes), but I also don't like being taken advantage of. I'm just asking you to keep it real and be honest from the beginning; that way, nobody is wasting their time or getting their feelings hurt. That's fine...we'll see how things go after we get to know each other. All it will take to find out whether or not things might work between you and me Then Lets Get Serious and Take this to The Next Level. TRUST IN GOD Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it."The Holy Spirit reminded me of that as it applies to marriage. Only God can so meld two hearts together so that only the love He can give may be experienced by both toward each other. When we can totally surrender to His will, even in love...when it's not forced or planned or manipulated, that is when marriage will really honor God. When the union is for His Glory...and not our own, then it will flourish and be the example that God intended it to be .I am a Spirit-filled believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, and He is the source and strength of my life. The desire of my heart is that I meet and grow to love the woman with whom I hope to spend the rest of my life. He is also a GOOD and faithful friend who is AVAILABLE (physically and emotionally), is able to be a prayer warrior, and is an encourager and supporter. I am compassionate, loyal, friendly, and love to encourage others. I have been single five years now. for I am a full-time worker, and will soon graduate with a terminal degree. I love my career, but family and love are most important TRUST AND FAITH Trust, loyalty and respect are a must for eternal happiness. No matter how much you love someone if you don't have these ingredients you will never succeed. To be in love means being patient but to be patient you must trust him or her first.You can never find love through the eye or ear, so you must trust the only thing that will never fade until you die, your heart.Love is like trust, when you find your special someone it is as if you're trusting them with your heart.Trust is what you put in someone's hands. Faith is what you hold on to. Trust is what makes everyone realize that you are always there for them. Faith is what makes everyone realize that you are always there to help them in case they need some help Love makes not everyone, but the only one in your life who is special, think that you are always there for her, to be with her, to make her realize how much you really love her. Without honesty, love gets unhappy, and without trust, love gets unstable.Love is a wonderful gift; trust in it, believe in it, give it, and it will be returned to you to give again and again. You can get advice from family, friends and strangers, but the best advice comes from your heart; it never lies trust it.There may be many people that are trustworthy, but only a few are worth trusting with your heart; choose wisely.To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved. For you can love many, but without trust you have nothing.The heart already knows what the mind can only dream of. Trust your heart.Distance cannot,they are on the inside, but when he or she betrays your trust, they become the ugliest person in the world.Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast. It is not proud........ It is not rude. It is not self -seeking. It is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrong doing. It does not delight in evil, but rejoices in the truth. It always protects, trusts, hopes, perseveres.Love takes many things: trust, hope, wishes, dreams, and everything you've got, even when you know it's not going be enough.Love is not always fireworks and shooting stars; sometimes it's a simple understanding and trust between two people..... relationships have some adjustment periods, but being hurt shouldn't be part of being in love. Loving relationships have good qualities, such as support from your partner, a willingness to communicate, a desire to compromise, and open an honest communication. When you do not have these fundamental qualities in a relationship, that relationship isn't likely to grow, and become something that you desire. We all turn to our loved ones for support from time to time. When your loved one does not offer you their support it may be time to look at your relationship. As we all want to nurture those that we love. We want the best in life for those that we care about. If your partner is unwilling to listen to you, and to your problems, they are not meeting your needs when you need support. Support can come in many forms, someone lending an ear, someone going out of their way to help you, or something as simple as a phone call to cheer you up. Make sure your partner gives you support when you need it. When engaging in a relationship with another person there is always going to be things that you do not agree upon. You want to have the ability to compromise so both partners are getting their wishes met. This may mean one night you watch football, and one night your partner watches a movie you enjoy. It might mean that your partner can agree to try a dish that you enjoy cooking. In any organization with more than one person in it, there will be more than one opinion, work with your partner to see that both of you can compromise on different subjects. If someone isn't willing to compromise, they are not willing to acknowledge your wants and desires. If they can not acknowledge your wants they are likely not emotionally developed enough for you to have your needs met. Open and honest communication is one of the more desirable qualities you want to have in a relationship. Watch to see that your partner is not secretive, nor are they willing to tell lies to avoid certain subjects. For example, if a partner is married, and fails to tell you that, you can rightfully assume if they can lie about big things, they can lie about small things. While you may not like everything your partner may say, freedom to be honest should be there in your relationship. Likewise, you need to be open and honest with your partner; a relationship based upon false truths is not likely to be successful, because both partners do not have the correct frame of reference in the relationship. There are many qualities that make relationships good support, compromise, and open and honest communication is just a few of these qualities that you may desire in a relationship. Engage only in relationships where both partners can openly discuss their wants and needs, this can take practice. Remember loving relationships grow and only become better, eliminate those who do not meet your needs when they continually fail to support you, will not compromise, and will not be honest. These three qualities alone will help you nurture and develop a deeper relationship with your partner.

I do not like when you compliment me about my aspect with jokes. I like and sometimes even prefer a stranger's compliment when it is said appropriately. I like when you surprise me with your compliments. Being surprised is like feeling there is something new, novel. I appreciate constructive suggestions, for example about the way I dress, but I do not like when you joke about it. If there is something you do not like, for example my new lipstick, tell it with courtesy, and buy me another one without letting me know. THINGS I LIKE I want to laugh, laugh, laugh with you. I want to dance with you, listen to music with you, and laugh with you. Let's laugh, let's free up, laughing together! I like biking, I like going to the ocean and walking on the beach. You know it and I love when you propose doing something that maybe you do not specifically like doing, but you do because you know I like it. I love surprise gifts ? a haircut, or a day at a spa, or an hour of massage. It is a real gift when I come back home and find tasks I was supposed to do during that time already taken care of! A dinner invitation is nice too, but it has to be a surprise. I love when you anticipate my desires; it means you know me very well, all the little things I care about, and my habits SEX Sex is important. Love is outside and inside the bedroom. New things in bed help strengthen and renew the relationship. You make me feel your sexual desire with your eyes, and it usually takes only a few seconds. I love when you look at me in the right way, when you gently put your hand in my hair. I like those kisses with closed mouth, like in the movies. They are like a preliminary, and make me thirsty for what is going to follow. ROLE ,COMMITMENT I do not want to be a role such as mother, wife, cook, or dishwasher. Even after many years of marriage, I want you to see me as the person I am, the woman I was when we first met, not the wife or mother or some kind of role. I do not like when you do things that you "must" do. I do not feel them as sincere. I do not like your flowers when you ask me for some kind of excuse, it is as if you want to give me something to "cover your ass". The same for cheap compliments, they sound like stereotypes. When I have a problem the first thing I do is to call you, and I expect your comments and suggestions. You must always be there when I need you to support me, it's indispensable. I do not want to feel alone when I need help, and I know it can be difficult for you to realize that I need you, but I send an SOS just like our daughter or any other person. Sometimes you realize I need you and it's too late, and I feel you do not understand me, you are not there when I need you. Do not be casual when you commit to something for me. LOVE To love me is to accept me as I am. I do not want to be judged for the things I do. I want you to trust me and let me do what I feel is right. We women are always "right" ? it is a matter of love. When I feel alone, empty, a stranger, I want your eyes to tell me I am the person you love and you want me for what I am. Do not do or say things because you think you are "honest", do them because of your love for me, and trust me even though you think I am wrong. Just as we do not judge our children because they are our children and we love them. A LITTE THINGS EVERY DAY Be happy because I am happy. I like you when you say hi in the morning. I like when you call in the evening and tell me where you are and when you'll be at home. I feel nervous if I do not know where you are and I am here waiting for you. I like when there is complicity between us. I do not necessarily like when you do things I am jealous about, such as preparing the table or cooking dinner. But if you do it, take care of everything, to make me feel completely relaxed about it.... DISTANCE Distance doesn't matter if you really love the person, what matters most is your honesty and trust for that relationship to work out.Without romance, love gets dry. Without respect, love gets lost. Without caring, love gets boring. MORNINIG SMILE Good morning. How are you and how was your weekend? First of all,allow me to apologize for not responding to your message expeditiously. I'm utterly flattered and the pleasure is all mine you chose to view,read,and respond to my personal profile. I've honestly been occupied with personal business and haven't allocated any time to relax and/or respond to your e-mail. I'm presently at work typing this correspondence. Formally introducing myself,my name is Raymond. I'm 35 years age and I reside in the state of Indiana,in the capital city of Indianapolis. I'm presently single,although I've been married and divorced twice. I have 2 sons:Devon,9,and Zachary,3. I stand 6'2" tall. As you do,I also strive to maintain a healthy lifestyle via eating healthy and exercise. My present occupation is in the field of insurance. Later this year,I will be starting school to obtain a bachelor's degree in business finance. My goal is to be a financial investment advisor and own a business. I'm not one to frequent bars and/or clubs. I prefer enjoying fine dining,fine wine,and/or listening to classical or jazz music to relax. I'm an avid sports fan,preferably basketball,baseball,and football. There are other sports I do enjoy watching but haven't had time to actually participate in them..... I play chess also. I've traveled abroad via the U.S. Navy. I've been to the Philippines,Malaysia,Hong Kong,Singapore,and the United Arab Emirates. Eventually,I'll travel and visit other countries overseas again. France and Italy are the 2 countries I desire to visit most. I have a palate for authentic Italian cuisine and French Merlot. I haven't been to Africa but would love to visit. I was planning a trip to Ghana this year,but due to starting a new job this month,I won't be able to go. What city in Ghana do you live in? How long ago were you in the U.S. and why Texas? I know you pondering why I've been married and divorced twice and/or have a personal profile on line? My 2 previous wives and I weren't intellectually compatible..... There were characteristics missing from their persona,as women,I believe and thought all women possessed. Unfortunately,this wasn't true with them. I have a personal profile on the internet because I'm questing to find someone completely different from any other woman I've met before. I'll explain in detail in the next e-mail. I hope you're having a lovely day and I anticipate hearing from you. May I see a photo of you? MORNING SMILE 2 I woke up one day and thought something was missing. So I got up from my bed, grabbed my cell phone and sent you a morning greeting. Good a.m. Someday, you will find one who will watch every sunrise with you until the sunset of your life. Baka tayo sipunin niyan. Good a.m. I woke up today smiling as I recall our friendship because I know that years from now, I will still be waking up smiling for the same reason every morning. A warm "hello" doesn't come from the lips, it comes from the heart; doesn't have to be told, it has to be shown; doesn't have to be given, it has to be sent. Text me na. God smiled at me just this morning thru the rising sunrays. I'm sharing the same courtesy with you by sending you a warm smile that your heart can feel even without seeing. Of all the smiles you received today, there was a smile you didn't see. A smile not from the lips, but straight from the heart - a smile that came from me. Sometimes, life gets so busy that we could not find time to say "Thank you" to someone who has been so nice and wonderful. "Thank you!" Everyday is a happy day as long as you text me once a day. I tell you, this is no lie. A text from you always makes me smile. I woke up a few hours ago, but somehow I feel incomplete till I remembered I haven't texted you yet. Have a pleasant morning! People vanish, people die. People laugh and people cry. Some give up, some will try. Some say hi, while some say bye. Others may forget, but never will I. Good morning! Every morning, leave your worries outside your gate, coz that's where they pick up the garbage! Have a worry free day! Hey, good morning! Rise and shine! As you open your eyes to greet the morning sun, I wish that you would be well and fine. A smile is a way of writing your thoughts on your face, telling others that they are accepted, liked and appreciated. So here's a big smile just for you. Good am! Every morning has a new beginning, a new blessing, a new hope. It's a perfect day coz it's God's gift. Have a blessed, hopeful perfect day to begin with. Good a.m. The best gifts to give: to friend - loyalty; to enemy -forgiveness; to boss - service; to child good example; to parents - devotion; to friends - love; to God - our lives; and to text mate message. This message has no fat, no cholesterol and no additive. This is all natural except, with a lot of sugar. But it can never be as sweet as the one reading it. Smile! Smile! Because you have just received a text message from someone hoping you are fine. Good a.m. With atomic and meteoric regards, my volcanic impulse trembles every time I greet a person with a magnitude of character and charm like you. A smile is a curve that sets everything straight and wipes the wrinkles away. Hope you receive a lot and share a lot of smiles today. Here's one from me. Never get tired of doing little things to others, because sometimes those little things may mean so much to them. That's why I won't get tired of sending my little hi to you. We're not too close in distance. We're not too near in miles. But text can still touch our hearts and thoughts can bring us smiles. Good morning! Doctor's advice: eat breakfast regularly, drink plenty of water, take your vitamin C, and text me three times a day. Good a.m. A smile is a language everybody understands. It costs nothing but creates much. It happens fast but its memory may last forever. Keep smiling. All mornings are like a painting, you need a little inspiration to get you going, a little smile to brighten it and a message from someone who cares to color your day. One of the joys in life is waking up each day with thoughts that somewhere, someone cares enough to send a warm morning greeting! Good morning and enjoy the day! An icing can make a cake so sweet, a string can make a balloon so high, a match can make a candle so bright. I hope that a simple text can make you smile. You don't text often. You don't text much. It makes me feel sad coz we're out of touch. The message is clear. There's someone I really miss and it's you my dear! Good am! Each time I text you good am, it's not just a morning greeting. There's a silent message saying I thought of you as I woke up this morning! Good am! May you rise each texting day with fully charged cell phone in your hand, inspiring message in your mind, me in your heart, and a clear signal all day long. Nice day! Could you do me a favor? Put your left hand over your right shoulder then your right hand to your left shoulder. There! I've just given you a morning hug. LOVING WORDS There are 12 months a year...30 days a month...7 days a week...24 hours a day...60 minutes an hour...but only one like you in a lifetime. There are two reasons why I wake up in the morning: my alarm clock and you. Great minds contain ideas, solutions and reasons; scientific minds contain formulas, theories and figures; my mind contains only you! Love can be expressed in many ways. One way I know is to send it across the distance to the person who is reading this. If I could change the alphabet, I would put U and I together! Minsan caring is better than loving. Minsan tea is better than coffee. Minsan smile is better than laughter. Pero nobody is better than you..... There is night so we can appreciate day, sorrow so we can appreciate joy, evil so we can appreciate good, you so I can appreciate love. You look great today. How did I know? Because you look great everyday. What is love? Those who don't like it call it responsibility. Those who play with it call it a game. Those who don't have it call it a dream. Those who understand it call it destiny. And me, I call it you. What is love? It is what makes your cell phone ring every time I send text messages. If love can be avoided by simply closing our eyes, then I wouldn't blink at all for I don't want to let a second pass having fallen out of love with you. I used to think that dreams do not come true, but this quickly changed the moment I laid my eyes on you. Press down if you miss me. Talaga? Sweet mo naman. You really miss me huh? Still pressing down. Impressed na ako, ha? Sobrang miss na yan. Well, I miss you too..... Some people were born with talents. They can do beautiful things with their skills, knowledge and technology. But no one is as talented as you. You just come near, and there is already beauty. A lady is a woman who makes a man behave like a gentleman. You're such a lady to me. To forget you is hard to do and to forget me is up to you. Forget me not, forget me never. Forget this text, but not the sender. When situation gets you down, remember there's Someone in Heaven who loves you and watches over you and there's someone on Earth who cares? I do. Cell phones can be irritating sometimes. You always have to reload, recharge every now and then. Messages are delayed. But there's one thing I love about it. It connects me to you! Words begin with ABC. Numbers begin with 123. Music begins with do, re, mi. And friendship begins with you and me! Rain and sunshine do not always come together. Night and day never coincide. But you and I, whatever they say, is for me the perfect match..... When I dream, I dream of you...maybe one day, dreams will come true. There is an ocean between us. Forests and mountains keep us apart. I may not be superman, but give me a second and I will fly across countries to send you my love. Have you received it? If, out of time, I could pick one moment and keep it shining, always new, of all the days that I have lived, I'd pick the moment I met you. I'm on a mission to get over you, in other words mission impossible. I wish I'd be a tear in your eye to roll down your cheek and end up with your lips but I never wish you'd be a tear in my eye for I would lose you every time I cry. When it rains, you don't see the sun, but it's there. Hope we can be like that. We don't always see each other, but we will always be there for one another. I may run out of message to text you. I may run out of jokes too. I may also run out of battery or even a peso but my heart won't run out of space for you! You'll know that you miss someone very much when every time you think of that person, your heart breaks into pieces and just a quick "Hello" from that person can bring the broken pieces back. Love. All my life I have read about it, dreamt of it, waited for it, cried for it, needed it. Now with you, I have found it. Sherlock Holmes was an idiot and Robert Watt was a fool. One was a detective, the other invented radar. But neither of them ever discovered you. I'm a genius! When the time comes I can't smile anymore, don't worry about me, I know what to do. I'll just stare at one corner and think of you. No one else could make me happy like the way you do. There's a love that only you can give, a smile that only your lips can show, a twinkle that can only be seen in your eyes, and a life of mine that you alone can complete. Everyone wants to be the sun that lights up your life. But I'd rather be your moon, so I can shine on you during your darkest hour when your sun isn't around. Ah-- I forgot your name. Can I call you mine? And, in case you forget my name too, call me yours! If I had the letters "HRT", I can add "EA" to get a "HEART" or a "U" and get "HURT". But I'd rather choose "U" and get "HURT" than have a "HEART" without "U". You may never see how much I care for you. You may never hear how much I treasure you. You may never feel how much I miss you. Coz only here in my heart can you see them true. There are 4 steps to happiness: 1. you, 2. me, 3. our hearts, 4. together! If kisses were water, I'd give you the ocean. If hugs were leaves, I'd give you a forest. If love were space, I'd give you a galaxy. If friendship were life, I'd give you mine for free. It's hard to say hello because it might be goodbye. It's hard to say I'm okay because sometimes I'm not. But it's easy to say I miss you coz I know that I really do. It's hard for two people to love each other when they live in two different worlds. But when these two worlds collide and become one, that's what you call you and I. If you're feeling lonely and you think there is nobody there to love, support, listen or show they care, just save this message and every time you realize it, it will remind you that a part of me is always there with you. Roses are red, violets are blue. I am waiting to hear from a cute guy like you. They say that as long as there is one person loving you, life isn't a waste. So if you lose hope and thought that life is not worth living, just remember I'm here. Do you know that men and women are angels created with only one wing? And they need to embrace each other to be able to fly... Hope you can find your angel whom you can fly with forever. They told me I could do anything if I put my mind into it. Yet no matter how hard I try in all that I do, I just can't take my mind off you. My biggest reward is to see you smile, know you are happy, and feel you are loved. I know life is sometimes cruel, but that's why I'm here, to show you that life can be good when somebody cares. I always think of you, but I always fail to know the reason why. Is there something else I should know about you? But there is one thing that I know is true. That life will always be sad without you. Hatred infects the mind; love dissolves it. You dissolve my mind. Don't say you love me unless you really mean it cause I might do something crazy like believe it..... I'm afraid to close my eyes coz I might think of you. I'm afraid to open them coz I might see you. I'm afraid to move my lips coz I might speak of you. I'm afraid to listen coz I might hear my heart fall for you. I'm sorry to be smiling every time you're near. I'm sorry my eyes twinkle whenever you're here. I'm sorry that cupid has made his hit. I'm sorry I love you, I can't help it. Caring for someone is easy but making someone care for you is hard. Now I keep wondering how did you make it so easy for me to care for you. Text me when you are sad, text me when you need someone to listen to and you can't find anyone who will. I don't care if I'm your last option, I just don't want you to cry alone. I don't want to say I miss you, though deep inside I do, coz I'm afraid you might see thru and know how much fear I have of losing someone like you. If love can be avoided simply by closing our eyes, I wouldn't blink at all for I don't want to let a second pass having fallen out of love with you. I wish one day you will miss me terribly that no matter how hard you look for me, you won't find me. Why? Because, I want you to miss me the way I'm missing you right now. If I could be any letter in the alphabet, I'd choose "V" so I can be next to "U"; if you could be any note, I wish you're "RE" so your always beside "ME"! Whatever you do, I'll walk with you. Hoping that your every dream would come true. Anytime, anywhere, I'll always be there. Wishing you love and happiness because I care. The spaces between our fingers were created so that another person's fingers could fill them in. Hope you'll find your dream hand to hold you forever. Every part of me wants you, maybe because I was made just for you! When you love someone, draw a circle around their name instead of a heart coz hearts can be broken but circles never end. Nobody tells fish to swim, birds to fly, cows to moo, dogs to bark - they just do. Just like nobody tells me to remember you. I just do! If you were a wound inside my heart, I'd rather leave it there with all the pain locked inside than leave it without a trace of you. Whenever you feel blue, I will be there for you. Whenever you are sad, I will stay by your side. Whenever you need someone to love, I will always be there for you to have. They can recycle paper till it's as good as new, reproduce cans and jars and old bottles too, but they can never recycle another person as wonderful as you. I hate when you smile at me because you make me crazy about you. I hate when you talk to me because you make me run out of words. I hate you when I see you because you make me love you more. What good is beauty without brains, looks without charm, money without happiness, a smile without feelings, a life without you? To be disturbed by the beep of your phone only means that somehow, somewhere, somebody is thinking of you and at this very moment, that's me. Take care always. A person you love is an extension of yourself. Without it, you're not complete so better take care of yourself because I don't want to lose a part of me. I wish my eyes could speak what my heart feels for you, coz my lips can lie on what is true. My eyes couldn't coz even if I close them I could still see you. Every time I hear my text tone, I always hope one of them is from you. My cell phone may have limited memory space but my heart has unlimited space for someone like you. I have you! If you hate me, shoot me with an arrow, but please not on the heart coz that's were you are! Someone asked what makes people happy. Some said wealth and some said fame. I was thinking about this when my cell phone beeped and received a text from you. Then, I smiled and said: "This makes me happy." You're like a target that I always try to aim at. How I wish I could aim you at the heart. But every time I fail, I feel so sad. You know why? It's because I always end up missing you. It was a simple crush, done and over with, then you looked at me. Love is something special, a treasure I want to find... To others, love is blind but for me, its not true, coz when I fell in love...I saw you. I'll lend you my shoulder for you to cry on, my ears to listen to, my hand for you to hold, my feet to walk with you, but I can't lend you my heart coz it already belongs to you. Why do birds fall from the sky every time you walk by? Maybe because like me they want to be near you! If I get takot, would you hawak me tight? If I gawa something mali, would you make it right? If I build an apoy, would you bantay the flame? If I sabi I miss u, would you ramdam the same? Do you take me to be your lawfully wedded text mate, in sickness or in health, through metering or not, till low bat do us part? Someone once asked me, "Have you ever fallen in love?" Then I answered, "Of course, once." Then they asked me another question: "Did it hurt?" I thought of you and told them "Yes, very much". You must be a thief coz you stole my heart. You must be tired coz you're always running through my mind. And maybe I'm a bad shooter coz I keep missing you. I asked God for a rose and He gave me a garden. I asked God for a drop of water and He gave me an ocean. I asked God for an angel and He gave me you! I have heard from the phone company, the water company, the electric company, but haven't heard from you. Too bad, it's your company I love the most. If someone would ask me what a beautiful life means, I would lean my head on your shoulder and hold you close to me and answer with a smile: "Like this!" If only one star would fall every time I miss you, then all the stars in heaven would be gone. Don't wonder if there are no stars tonight! It's your fault coz you made me miss you a lot. Life may sometimes be a rough road to walk on where everything seems wrong. But don't give up. Just go on coz when you think you're all alone, look back and you'll find me walking along. They say as long as at least one person cares for you, life isn't a waste. So when things go terribly wrong, and you feel like giving up, please remember you still got me. True love is hard to find, special one, one of a kind. I know because it appeared to me on a strange day I met you. I've been wondering why you're not texting... Multiple Choice: a.... busy b. dedma c. tired d. thrifty e. want me to miss you. While you gave her flowers, you gave me thorns. While all she did was smile, all I did is mourn. While she was so happy, I felt so blue. Because while you loved her, I was loving you. An angel asked me a reason why I care for you so much. I told her I care for you so much coz there's no reason not to. First time I saw you, I was scared to touch you. First time I touched you, I was scared to kiss you. First time I kissed you, I was scared to love you. But now that I love you, I'm scared to lose you! If love is a disease then I'm very ill. But I would not want medicine and won't take any pill. I would instead suffer this illness and be bedridden with joy of knowing you. I will walk with you side by side for only one condition: hide your wings every time we walk together because the whole world might know that you're my angel! Each of us is an angel with one wing. The only way we could fly is to hold each other and share wings. So if you have trouble flying, I will always share mine with you. I used to think that the world is so unfair, that it gave me so many reasons to hate it. But now, how can I hate such a wonderful world that gave me you? Can I say I love you today? If not, can I ask you again tomorrow? And the day after tomorrow? And the day after that? Coz I'll be loving you every single day of my life. A day may start or end without a message from me, but believe me it won't start or end without me thinking of you..See! I just did. Take care. You greeted me hi, I didn't reply. You gave me a sweet smile, I responded with a sigh. You showed me your love, you received a shrug. But when you bid goodbye I began to cry. WHAT I NEVER ACHIEVE It seems so hard to meet the right person these days. I believe in true love but I think very few people experience it. They end up settling and not finding that one who they would treasure all their life and that person who would treasure them. I have never found true love. It seems that all the guys I am interested in are not interested in me and the ones who are interested in me I am not interested in them. Now with on line dating or what ever you call it, finding a spouse or mate. Well it is a whole different story. There is no way to fall in love at first sight because you never meet this person in a crowd or some other place to fall in love at first sight. It is fall in love with the words a person writes, your lucky if you really get to know even 5% of that person and the rest you just hope and pray will be all you have ever dreamed of. With all that said I will tell you a bit about me and my hope and dream. First I have been hurt over and over by mean lying men ,so my trust is very low and I feel that there are very few true men out there. I will tell you more of my situation at a latter date. I believe with the right man could love him like no one in this world. I have great respect for great men.I try to treat them tenderly and with kindness. All I have ever wanted in life is to be with a man who I am attracted to and he is attracted to me. Some one who is all so handsome on the inside. One who is my companion and friend who will stand by me through thick and thin and will never give up on me. One who is honest, truthful and faithful and will never ever cheat on me. I must be the only woman for you forever and always. This is all I ever wanted is true love, to be loved and encouraged by him and I would do the same, I would die for a man like that. The problem is there seems to be very few like that in the world today. I have been lonely for a very long time. However; I do have mum and uncle who have been very dear to me but soon they are going to all be on there own starting their own lives. I long to be with the right man and that is why I am looking now because I want to find that special man,the right man for me and me for the right man. I prefer to play for keeps so I want to do this right. Well I must go for now thanks again for writing. Please take good care and God bless. Dear i will be waiting on ur email and also will wait till u get online.Dear wait for me online if i am off bcus i will be rigth back to chat with u ok WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO BEFORE FALLING IN LOVE Never rush in love for it never runs out. Let love be the one to knock at your door, so by the time you start to fall, you know that your feeling is for sure. Love has its ups and downs, its twists and turns. Love leaves you pain, teaches you until you learn and even if love takes so long, it always takes you to where you belong..... Women listen to music because they are in love. Men listen to music because they want to fall in love. Some people don't get any respect at all because they are asking for the respect they deserve. You don't marry someone you can live with. You marry the person who you cannot live without. There is no such a thing as ignorance, but only degrees of wisdom. Love is not about finding the right person, but creating the right relationship. It's not about how much love you have in the beginning but how much love you build till the end, coz love is all there is. Traffic. The black spell that makes commuters forget they are in love. Love and stars are similar in one way. They keep you looking up every night. There are two things rain helps improve: agricultural production and Philippine population. It's better to lose your pride with someone you love, rather than lose that someone with your useless pride. The greatest test of courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart. When everything goes wrong, push! When you wish for something, push! When people don't understand, push. When you wish for love, P-ush U- ntil S-omething H-appens! Guilt: The inner voice that tells us that Someone may be looking. Being single is cool. No worrying about anyone, no obligations and best of all, no heartaches. But you know what? If you will never get your heart broken, you will never learn to love. Looking at men who are drunk is a mistake. Looking at women who are drunk is a temptation. Women fall in love through their ears, and men through their eyes. Each of us is a star. Sometimes we shine with the rest. Sometimes we twinkle alone. Sometimes when we least know it, we make someone's wish come true. Home is the only place where one does not get homesick. Every ten seconds, somewhere on this earth, there is a woman giving birth to a child. She must be found and stopped. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and most often in the tongue of the liar. A person is happy if he has a problem and enjoys solving it. Girls are like cell phones, they like to be held and talked to, but press the wrong button and you're disconnected. Guys are like buses. If you miss that one, another will be along soon. It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good too to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven't lost the things that money cannot buy! In love, there is always one who kisses and one who offers the cheek. Relationships are like traffic signs 1-way, 2-way, do not enter, no U turn, no left turn, but the best so far is give way and keep right. Being happy all the time is kind of boring. When you love somebody, be ready to take the intensity of emotions. Be jealous, anxious. Love with all your might. Take the pain and everything that comes with it. Just make sure that the person is worth it. Words and hearts should be handled with care... for words when spoken and hearts when broken are the hardest things to repair. It's amazing how one person can bring you so much happiness and pain in your life. Maybe it's really love knocking when he can make you so happy that you forget all the pains. So don't forget all the happiness when he breaks your heart. It takes three seconds to say I love you, three minutes to explain, three hours to demonstrate, three days to appreciate, three terms to produce it, but a lifetime to prove it. The best thing about an enemy is that he tells the truth about you. Say good about yourself and you'll be called arrogant; say bad about yourself and you'll be believed. Some flowers grow best in the sun; others do well in the shade. God plants us where we grow best and gives us loved ones to grow with. There is no absolute freedom. When your girlfriend says, "I love you", that is her freedom. But then again, will you let her say, "I love you" to every man. Love can never be taught for it is to be learned; love can never be bought for it is to be given; love can never be kept for it is to be free; love can never be old for it lives to last a lifetime. When a battered wife learns to fight back, blame the husband. He showed signs of weakness. When a battered husband learns to fight back, blame the wife. She took too far. Love is magic. The more we hide it, the more it shows; the more you suppress it, the more it grows. It is always a pleasure to listen to persons bragging about their humility. We forgive those who bore us but cannot forgive those whom we bore. Open and honest communication is one of the more desirable qualities you want to have in a relationship. Watch to see that your partner is not secretive, nor are they willing to tell lies to avoid certain subjects. For example, if a partner is married, and fails to tell you that, you can rightfully assume if they can lie about big things, they can lie about small things. While you may not like everything your partner may say, freedom to be honest should be there in your relationship. Likewise, you need to be open and honest with your partner; a relationship based upon false truths is not likely to be successful, because both partners do not have the correct frame of reference in the relationship. When engaging in a relationship with another person there is always going to be things that you do not agree upon. You want to have the ability to compromise so both partners are getting their wishes met. This may mean one night you watch football, and one night your partner watches a movie you enjoy. It might mean that your partner can agree to try a dish that you enjoy cooking. In any organization with more than one person in it, there will be more than one opinion, work with your partner to see that both of you can compromise on different subjects. If someone isn willing to compromise, they are not willing to acknowledge your wants and desires. If they can not acknowledge your wants they are likely not emotionally developed enough for you to have your needs met. We all turn to our loved ones for support from time to time. When your loved one does not offer you their support it may be time to look at your relationship. As we all want to nurture those that we love. We want the best in life for those that we care about. If your partner is unwilling to listen to you, and to your problems, they are not meeting your needs when you need support. Support can come in many forms, someone lending an ear, someone going out of their way to help you, or something as simple as a phone call to cheer you up. Make sure your partner gives you support when you need it. All relationships have some adjustment periods, but being hurt shouldn be part of being in love. Loving relationships have good qualities, such as support from your partner, a willingness to communicate, a desire to compromise, and open an honest communication. When you do not have these fundamental qualities in a relationship, that relationship isn likely to grow, and become something that you desire.

"If there is anything better than to be loved, it is loving." ~Source Unknown "Let no one who loves be unhappy. Even love unreturned has its rainbow." ~James Matthew Barrie "My love for you is like time, if you give it just one moment, it will last forever." ~Submitted by Linda Barton "It's not being in love that makes me happy. It's being in love with YOU that makes me happy." ~Source Unknown "For an instant, love can transform the world." ~ Source Unknown "Remember... love is the link that holds two hearts together." ~Source Unknown "While many a soul are unhappy with love, no one is ever happy without it." ~Submitted by Andrew Worden "What do I get from Loving You? Loving You!" ~Submitted by Gabby How do I possibly put into words how much you mean to me? I know with all of my heart and every passing day that we were meant to be. With every look into your eyes I fall deeper in love with you;you're strong, you're kind and nothing compares to the things that you do. You've sacrificed so much to be the best husband any man could be; and never second guessed placing my happiness well above your needs. it's comforting to know that in a world so big that sometimes gets me down; I have a husband like you to keep me from falling to the ground. I could hold you in my arms forever and say "I love you" one hundred times each day; but I'm afraid it would take three more lifetimes with you for me to portray... Just how much I adore you and how thankful I am to be your wife; and how lucky I have been to have you as such an important part of my life. People search a lifetime and sometimes never find true love; that's how I know that meeting you was a gift from up above. It's important you understand that although these words, you may not always hear; I love you so much and could never imagine my life without you. hold your heart and soul with mine it comforts me during this time It's the lifeline that keeps me strong I pray you feel it's where they belong Always remember the love we share There is nothing like it to compare
