Hello Ladies:

I hope you don’t judge me by my picture, I have never taken a good picture. I am much better looking in person. Or at least that’s what everyone that meets me tells me.

Let me cut to the chase right away, then if your interested we have a firm ground to start on. I find most woman (not all) just most are looking for someone my age to be financially secure in their life. Well 3 years ago I would have said I was very financially stable. But things have reversed in the last 3 years. Here are some examples of he changes in my stability.

In 2006, My home was valued at a million two hundred thousand dollars.
I had been retired for 5 years
I owned 2 businesses that employed 13 full time employees and 5 temps.
My businesses were invoicing about a million dollars a year.

In 2009, My home is worth maybe four hundred thousand and I owe eight hundred thousand
I am no longer retired and work a lot
I still own 2 businesses but have no employees
My businesses being tied to the housing market have dropped and I am invoicing one hundred thousand.

So in a nut shell I can no longer call myself financially stable. I am trying to get the bank to modify my house loan. But in order for me to get them to talk to me I have to be 3 months behind in payments. And that hurts because I have worked all my life to have excellent credit. I presently have a FICA score over 800. But that will be ruined now, it’s a shame in order for them to help me I have to ruin my credit. So I stopped making the house payment this month. I have even purchased a large travel trailer to live in just in case they take my home and do not modify my loan.

I know things will turn around in time, as it always does. But I do not see it happening for a few years. So for me Money might be a little tight for awhile. I still have money for play but just not for 5 star hotels or getaways to Hawaii or somewhere. You might ask if I am down on life, and I am not. This is just one of the ups and downs we go through in life. I have had lots of money several times in my life, and have been at the other end and lived in my car 3 times in my life. But they can not keep me down. LOL just let them try ha ha.

Now if your still interested in getting to know me, Here is who I am. 63 years young, 6 feet tall and 200 lbs. I am easy going and very spontaneous. I love getting out of town when ever I can. There are great sites and places to see in this country. It doesn’t matter if its getting away for an hour or for a week, just going.

I am still good friends with every woman I have dated and the two I was married to. I treat everyone like I would like to be treated. I am romantic and not afraid to show affection in public. And for those that are interested, I don’t need the little blue pills most men my age do. LOL My sex drive is still strong. Ha ha

Now you know the negative in my life, I hope you take the time to write and not just write but actually take the time to meet over coffee and see if we are compatible. When your at the bottom the only way is up, and I am heading up.

Thank you for taking the time to read all this, Bob

PS I have had several request to chat on AOL IM. I am sorry to say I do not have that I do have Yahoo.IM

Well I was retired for 5 years before the economy went south. So I ended my retirement and took my businesses back over. I plan to work till the economy comes back and then the plans are to retire again.

I have resently made contact with family in Italy that we lost tract of over 100 years ago. I would love to plan a trip over to meet them in person. But that trip is a few years off at this time. So till then I will go on enjoying my life and if someone I meet wishes to join me that would be great.

I am just enjoying everyday.

At most things I do. I could always be better but I get by pretty good as it is.

If I had my life to live over I would have paid more attention to my education and less time to all the partying I did. I use to be a real party animal, but with time I have slowed it way down. I am just not a party animal anymore.

Being a good friend.

Is that I am in pretty good shape for my age.LOL

That I am always in a good mood. It is seldom you will ever see me depressed or down. I love life and it shows.

Is that I am quite at first till I get to know someone.

I don't have time to read a lot and it is not something I really enjoy. I do read the paper each morning and I like reading Consumers Reports and PT Cruiser Quarterly.

I like action, romance and comedy movies. I am not into scary or gory movies. And have even been known to shed a tear about a chick flix.

I like Italian, Mexican, and fast food. Love a good Papa Murphy's pizza. Or for a good steak at Cattlemans and some other restaurants.

Good friends, the kind you can share everything with

Good health, I fought off cancer and won, cancer free now for almost 7 years

Good attitude,

My family, of my son and his wife and their 5 kids, and my daughter and her daughter.

New places to see

Some deep kissing, cuddling, and some great love making

I can add a lot more but they did say 6

My next romance. Who will I fall in love with and will we both feel the same about each other.

Is there a compatable woman out there ment for me, if so great and if not thats ok, I am still happy with the life I have.

My businesses and how to improve them.

Where will my life lead me in the next few years.

I am home unwinding from the week. Maybe making plans on what direction to head for a one day drive or weekend get away.

I spent years in the bar scene and its just not where I am in life anymore. I bartended for a short period, was a bouncer, and taught disco dancing. I closed bars for years, now its just a part of my past.

I love to be loved.

And that I am shy at first, and seldom if ever make the first contact, but warm up quickly after the ice is broken.

So if your interested, please make the first contact by sending me a message or a wink or something. LOL I answer everyone that responds. And the sexy ones even faster haha.

Don't just stalk me, send me something haha. I don't bite but I do nibble a little , LOL

If you would like to get to know me.

If you need a new friend
