Hi there. I am a easy going American man in search of a nice partner for friendship, romance, and hopefully. I am originally from Chicago (born and raised) but I have moved around a bit (Cleveland, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, New York City, and now back to Chicago). I am of Italian, Irish, and German origin. I enjoy reading, long conversations, hiking, canoeing, visiting museums, camping, baseball, and dancing (well I try). I am from a family of 6 kids (3 boys/3 girls) and I have 14 nieces and nephews (my sisters are fertile!) so I am used to a lot of commotion... but maybe I am a little needy for attention too ;-) I am quite curious and have a wide range of interests (history, linguistics, anthropology, religion) outside of work (I can thank my Dad for that as he worked for the local Chicago newspaper). I like to think I have a good work ethic (I was a great busboy, an adequate waiter, pretty good at plowing snow, and a solid tree-cutter). I paid for my own education. I come from a solidly Catholic, middle-class, loving family. I have pretty much accomplished everything career wise finally realizing that you can never get caught up with work without sacrificing one's personal life (which I am guilty of). I was in school for a while (BA JD MBA) and then moved around while I paid my student loans off (which took some time) and then eventually got lost in work (I work in trade finance). I am here to try and remedy that. I like kids and if you are a single mom with 2-3 kids, that is not a problem. Some say I am a pretty good communicator (must be the 1/4 Irish) and I am endlessly curious (maybe to a fault). I am pretty simple in my pleasures: sometimes after work I will go watch the baseball game at the local pub along with 2-3 beers and a dozen chicken wings. I am willing to try the balut as well...if I meet the right person ;-) My hair is going grey (but at least I still have a full head of hair :-)

UPDATE6/24/25                    I have been here for just about two years and believe that I will not renew my membership here in July. I just came back from a trip to Denmark in April and planning on one to France in July, that I took by myself and have decided that I can enjoy life alone but would find it even more enjoyable with some one to share it with, I have talked with several woman and planned to visit once to the Phils and even met one person here locally  but have not met someone with whom I feel a special connection with, so I have decided that I will concentrate for the remainder of my presence here to hopefully find a companion for life or just for fun some one interested in travel and exploration and willing to relocate for at least the next 10 years here to Chicago or forever even and maybe develop a relationship that would be forever. Maybe I have just had my share of true LOVE in my life and friendship is all that is left for me. Open for anything but must be honest with each other. Take care and never give up for less than you deserve.I am hoping for at least a good emotional connection and develop a minimum of a solid freindship.                     Too many people here are just attempting to take advantage of others here I think that I am coming to the end of the line here on F.C.so many women want to rush straight to I.G. F.B. Telegram or WhatsApp, if your serious about a relationship then be willing to invest just a short time either here or in emails or D.M.'s before we move on to another platform, I will be investing at least 14 hrs. in a plane to come and meet you in person if we connect emotionally!!!! I dont want a hook up, but a relationship!!!! Let me feel a little trust that you are worth the effort, if we connect I will be the best friend,Lover or Husband that you could ever find.  I may not look like it but I am the one that a serious person is looking for, I am not easily angered or chased away, I am one of the most loyal men that you could ever hope to find. Someone you can lean on in tough situations some one you can turn to to talk to or to hold you when needed. A partner in crime if needed, just steal my heart for that!!!! I am introvert and shy at first so dont be afraid to say what it is that you would like to try or do and I will probably be more than happy to just jump in and go along for the experience!!!    I have chatted with several people here and most are extremely sincere but I guess that I am not as lucky in love as I once was so maybe I should just search for friends, Do you want some one to hang out with? Some one to just talk with? Maybe some one who will hold your hand or give you a hug when you're sad? I can do this for you, do you want to explore in travel , restaurants  or cities but short on resources don't worry too much about it and let me help out, then lets chat I don't need a sex partner or a house keeper but an exploration pal would be nice some one who can laugh at the drop of a hat or smile when making a bad joke then Give me a chance and lets talk. If you have children or don't it does not matter to me as I am a big man and can look out after my friends and family. If it ends up that we become romantically involved that would be fantastic but if we just become friends that would make me just as happy I think.  I have known love and happiness, I have also known sadness and being alone, like everyone  i have also made good decisions in my life and ones that were not so good, in other words I am the average person in the world today!! But you learn from what happens in your life and  keep attempting to being a better person and enjoy life and the people who you share that life  with. I would like to find some one special to share the rest of my life with , one who loves to explore and live life to the fullest. I hope that  they enjoy music and dance, although I don't dance much anymore but would still enjoy slow dancing with some one special!! . I am open to new experiences in life and enjoy traveling and exploring life.  I have had several long term relationships in my life and dated often, I was engaged to a special women for over ten years but we never married because her family was prejudiced against all but ethnic Chinese people so we just lived together, she passed away in 2010 and I let too much sadness into my life after she was gone, I have not totally given up on finding love again but I am realistic enough to just be hoping for friends and or  travel companions and people who have a desire to explore life with.  I have been to Sweden at the beginning of Summer and hope to visit Briton  and or  Singapore  later this year so if you are interested in me and would like to meet drop me a line and maybe I can adjust my travel to meet with you !!!Some one who wants to either continue their education or career is fine, if not I can support our family myself. If they have children I would welcome them and help raise them the way that my partner will want them to be raIsed      While I am open for friendship with anyone any future romantic involvement is limited in that sexually  I am not gay, not sure what it is that I have written here about myself that is being misconstrued but about 10 % of people responding are looking for that type of a relationship. anyone who would like to be a partner in life.please leave a message or show your interest. I am hoping to find some one with an open mind and a love of life, who enjoys traveling and exploring life, I don't care about a persons past as that is yesterday, I want some one who wants to share tomorrow with me and start a future together!! Thanks.
