My self-summary
INTRODUCTION

Hi, I am Mark and living in Luton (40km from London).

I am 100% committed to finding a good woman for a loving and lasting relationship. I come here daily and I am working at this as though it was my job. I hope with determination, one day at a time, I can and will find you.

And dear reader, even if you're not the one, there are two ways you can help make my dreams come true. Probably the best way you can help is to match me up with someone you already know. The other way you can help me is by giving some feedback; positive suggestions are preferred to negative criticisms.

FAST FILTER

You can skip my profile if...
1. you smoke or do drugs
2. you are older than 44; I want children
3. you already have children
4. you are sure you do not want children
5. you've previously had more than two relationships. I am not looking for serial daters.

ABOUT YOU

You are caring and understanding, looking to build a lasting relationship. Your morality comes before money (I am not rich!).

ABOUT ME

I'm quite easy going and feel comfortable talking to people from all walks of life. A motto I like to remember is, "treat people on the way up the way you want to be treated on the way down". I might sometimes seem a little quiet but I wouldn't say I'm shy.

I sometimes find I am more open and accepting of other cultures and people than I see from others; some people seem too quick to judge. I am happy talking to most people but the things I don't like in others is arrogance and haters. Life is just too short.

WHY HAVE I NOT MARRIED ALREADY?

It's only in recent years that I've wanted a good and lasting relationship. My parents were married most of their lives, a very traditional old fashioned relationship that I've come to appreciate and respect very much. For me, marriage is going to be once only, guaranteed. That's a promise I make, not to anyone else but myself.
What I’m doing with my life
Well, my background is in computing but, actually in recent times, I've done very little in that regard. I run a couple of small time websites which I built but now I'm mostly maintaining them rather than actively developing them.

For years, on and off, I've thought of building my own dating site. I have lots of small and original ideas, just waiting to be pieced together. But I never did it because it has always been such a ferociously competitive space. However, very recently, I have been reconsidering things and I think maybe my ideas are starting to converge and take shape. Maybe I will take the plunge and sketch out my ideas.

Right now I am just caring for my mum and, therefore, unable to travel too far (she has multiple health issues).
I’m really good at
Wiggling my ears!

I am a little analytical, a little creative and fairly good at developing ideas.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
BOOKS / MOVIES
I enjoy true stories

FOOD
I like different foods, but spicy is nice!

MUSIC
A wide range of music from around the world but right now I'm really loving kpop / jpop. I also like X-Factor and other talent shows (but not The Voice).
The six things I could never do without
- water
- respect for others
- youtube
- open source software
- money
- good earphones / headphones / speakers

So long as I have the basics - food, health and shelter - then everything else is a bonus! :-)
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Maybe a bit of a dreamer. For example, very recently been trying my hand at song writing.. not a career or anything but more of an experiment.
I’m looking for
  • Girls who like guys
  • Ages 18–39
  • Located anywhere
  • Who are single
  • For new friends, long-term dating, short-term dating, long-distance penpals
You should message me if
If you've got this far then maybe you should try messaging me. If you're thinking about it but shy, take a big breath and try! :-)

Also, if you want to tell me what you are looking for in a dating site, that would be really cool!
