GWM, 48, Non-smoking, non-drinking and no drugs...my only vices left are Chocolate, Coffee & Sex...unfortunately in that order! ISO a Versatile GMOC to help rearrange my vices... ************************************************************************************************************* Seriously, I'm back to looking for an honest, together, real, loving and caring partner to share life's ups & downs with, a versatile Gay Black/Latino/Asian Man, a Man of Color...someone to love and build a life with. I've been clean & sober >21 years and I am truly a good catch...friends can't believe I'm not involved! ******************************************************************************************************************* In addition to those vices listed above...my biggest one is not listed...not really a vice, but another ism...I'm a Workaholic, and my name is James...I'm just finishing renovations in a 2-family house in Mt Pleasant, working a FT job and trying to find time to study to take the Natl Certification Exam for Massage Therapy. ******************************************************************************************************************* I'm a bit of a big bear, and want & need to transition down a bit. I need the structure of a program...otherwise I cheat...on diets only, NEVER relationships! Tried for Biggest Loser but didn't get in! My old idea of dieting is actually getting 4 servings out of a pint of ice cream, as opposed to the 1 serving we all know it really is...and today I'm thinking about weight loss surgery & seeing a nutritionist and I'm actually doing those 4oz portions...and counting calories...and I've lost 55# in about 4 months! I'm on a roll! (and that's not a cinnamon roll either!) ******************************************************************************************************************* As my friend Warren from Detroit puts it: "I wouldn't sweat the shape of the chassis...you got the goods under the hood...besides...older guys are built for comfort not for speed. I will take a Chevy classic over a new roadster anyday! By my way of thinking...getting there is half the fun! You've got to enjoy the journey...the destination will be there when ya get there... Besides...a fast rain is little rain...and I like a nice slow drenching :-)" Warren is a real trip! However...I'm also not Warren.... ******************************************************************************************************************* So, in a nutshell, I'm looking for a relationship...as far as hook-ups or sex, I never really went for the 'just sex' thing anyway...always open to friends, and those that may need to bend an ear, talk, want suggestions or advice in regards to addiction and sobriety. ******************************************************************************************************************* In the interest of full disclosure...I am HIV-, but I am HepC+... ************************************************************************************************************* BTW...PLEASE do not msg me w/1-3 word Intro's or GROPES (alone)....SAY SOMETHING IN YOUR GREETING! I WILL NOT RESPOND TO Hi, Hello, Hey there, Hello from Anytown, etc...thank you! ************************************************************************************************************* OK...one final word....for all the guys w/headless pics or cock & ass shots only...we all love cocks, asses and hot bodies....but guys, grow some fucking balls and show your face...it is 2009...and besides, I'd rather unwrap your package in person... ************************************************************************************************************* OK...one more-I promise this is it...guys...post your true ages...what the hell are you so afraid of...I have 40-something-year old friends on here that still post as 36...grow up, act your age & be honest about it! Thanks for the read of my little novella...LOL ******************************************************************************************************************* Happy Hunting!
