Hi everyone,
Like most men here on Cherry Blossoms, I decided to join this service because I'm interested in meeting that "one special woman" who will one day become my lover, my best friend and hopefully my wife.
Since every great romance has to start out with friendship first, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Michael and I'm an American from the state of Florida. Most people call me Mike.
I used to work as a contract Firefighter overseas, but presently I work as a medical lab courier here in Southwest Florida.
I've never been married, though I was engaged many years ago, and I have no children.
I want to marry only once in my life for I believe marriage to be a sacred vow between a man and a woman and God. I don't believe in divorce, expect under them most extraordinary conditions.
Unlike many of the women I've chatted with on the internet, I'm not looking for a "fantasy romance" or a "perfect partner" etc. Marriage and relationships take real effort and commitment to survive, and a couple must have a deep respect and love for each other.
To me "true love" is making a conscious decision to care and accept your partner for who they really are, both good qualities and bad. That's a real mature love that can weather the storms of life.
A little bit about my personality...
I consider myself to be a simple and average man that is very kind and easy to get along with.
I'm very independent and hardworking and I try not to rely on others. I'm not materialistic and I don't think the goal of life it to make lots of money and have expensive possessions.
I think I have a great sense of humor and I love to laugh!
I don't have a bad temper and I don't get mad easily. I'm not the violent type at all and I would never hit my wife! I would really hate to have a partner that yells at me a lot or gets angry over the smallest things...
I'm neat and organized and like to keep a very clean h
