I was born and raised in Hong Kong, moved to the U.S. when I was just 10yrs old (in other words ... NO ACCENT!), have lived in: New York City, Guam, Oklahoma, Portland, New Jersey and back to Portland since '96. Some people say that there are no real or honest men on the internet ... but I beg to differ. I value honesty, lives honorably, laugh easily, share openly, give generously, think considerately, act gentlemanly, clean up nicely and love wholeheartedly. I consider myself one of the last of the dying breed of romanticists. I am a single dad of 3 boys (16, 15 & 15 ... yes twins!). They live with me 50% of the time. Looking for someone special to share whatever is in stored and also someone to share grown-up alone time. I created my very own Top Ten list which helps explain ME :) Top 10 things I believe in ... #10 - Children's laughters are the most contagious sounds in the world (especially when the "belly laugh" and can't catch their breath) #9 - Love at first sight is possible (but make sure you're looking deep enough) #8 - Sunrise and sunset are the opposite ends of the same gift from nature #7 - A man's riches is not measured by how much he has when he dies; it's how much he has given when he's alive #6 - Respect should be mutual; SELF RESPECT is a right, MUTUAL RESPECT is a privilege #5 - Friendship is the most value gift one can give OR receive Addendum to #5 - a "true friend" is the one who picks you up (or drops you off) at the airport waaaay early in the morning ... even though you haven't been in touch for years! #4 - Faith (in god with a small "g") is more meaningfuly than the blind following of ANY religion #3 - Money can't buy you love (but it can buy you dinner) #2 - Love sometimes cause heartaches; if you're not willing to risk heartaches, you will not find true love #1 - The #1 thing I believe is: if you smile, people around you will smile back; if you laugh, people around you will laugh with you; if you fart, people around you will RUN AWAY! Gotcha! I see you laughing ... and I'm laughing with you!
