I am from Ireland. I have lived here, in the United States, for seventeen years. I lived in New York for three of those years before moving to California for work.
When I'm not busy doing charity work in my spare time, like rescuing blind orphans from burning buildings, I'm usually meditating or healing the sick with my mind or helping the elderly cross busy streets.
I have met some really lovely people on Match and the occasional lunatic. Most recently a woman who kept spitting into the palms of her hands asking, "Where are all the white boys at". Needless to say there was no second date with that person.
I recently bought a house, a beautiful Victorian home, and I love fixing it up. I'm good with my hands and although I am busy at work I like to spend time working on projects.
Projects, like the garden, a bathroom, drywall. Projects like that and not people. I've spent years trying to "fix" girlfriends and would prefer not to do it anymore.
That might sound a little harsh but I'm really just trying to get through this. I'm looking for a woman, a strong and intelligent woman who can take care of herself but is not opposed to having her man do the heavy lifting, if that heavy lifting has nothing to do with baggage (unless we're going on a flight. In which case Ill be more than happy to get those for you.)
I'm an honest person, to a fault maybe, and I've reached the point in my life where I refuse to waste time with people who complain about how their life is no good. I came to America on a one way ticket with forty eight dollars in my pocket and two shirts, one in my bag and one on my back. I was twenty five and had no idea what I should do. I worked hard and found my way. I have made my own life here. I'm proud of what I have achieved and always thankful for the luck that I made for myself. I want to get married some day. I would like to have a family. I have put so much time and effort into getting to where I am that maybe I sacrificed having a wife and a family to get here. Maybe? I may be a little old for "starting out" but I'm certain about one thing. I know who I am and what I want. So....
Don't, be crazy/ be bi-polar/ be sad/ be dramatic or drive a silver Volkswagon. (Evidently these cars are really popular among lunatics for some reason. It's a real red flag for me now). And, one last thing, I see " Looking for my partner in crime" so often in profiles, so many people use it and I'm not really sure if they're serious or not now. What does it even mean?
So, please don't be a lunatic. It's so exhausting and really disappointing. Be you! Unless you're crazy, then you can go ahead and be whomever you think you are, but be that person somewhere else. Maybe with your partner in crime, who drives a silver VW.
Finally..
I own a ship!..
Okay..no I don't..but I'm a great kisser.
