My name is Raymond . I am a kind, gentle, soft-spoken and loving person. I might seem a bit shy at first, but melt down to myself quickly. I am responsible, loyal, trustworthy, hardworking and honest. I am respectful towards others, especially woman and older people. I am a patient person, mature, and serious, but also light-hearted, friendly, like smiling, and always see the funny in any situation. I am not rich money-wise, but am rich in character, and have many interests, hobbies and skills. I love nature and the outdoors and especially the ocean. I like fishing, hiking, camping, visiting new and beautiful places, like gardening and flowers, and strongly believe in conservation of nature for our children. I am a caterer, and like my work very much. I like to prepare tasty and interesting dishes.
I enjoy staying in touch with my family and friends on , and to meet new people and making new friends. I like spending time with my family and friends, but also appreciate peaceful and lazy times at home. I believe in mutual respect, openness, communication and especially love in a relationship. I hate fighting and quarreling, and only want peace and love in my life and relationship. I am very passionate and know how to please and love a lady. I will be your man by day, and your lover by night. I am not ashamed to say that I am very sexual, and I am very open-minded in this regard. I am here looking for my better half, my eternal love, and my best friend. If my lady can be my best friend, we will share our interests and passions, and then I will not require any other friends but her.
My dream is to have a beautiful wife and a child that I can love, protect and be proud of, and to build a happy loving family and home. I love children, and want one of my own, and therefore want to meet a younger lady.
Life has shown me hardship, difficulty, and loneliness and I have joined this site to seek love. To find that special someone, that will give my life meaning, and to have a reason for living. I am not perfect, and have my faults and bad habits, but will give only my best to the one I love, and that loves me.

PROFILE UPDATE: 12/05/01

Please ladies, do not be shy to write to me first if you are interested in me. I might not have noticed your profile before, and would not want to miss you if you like me. I do not send smiles often, but if I don't, it does not mean that I don't like you.
Because my search here is serious, and because I respect you, I will not write short senseless letters to you, and would appreciate the same from you, as I cannot get acquainted with you if you only write a few short lines per letter. I do not want a one sided relationship, please. I will appreciate it if you actually read my letters before replying to them.
As I will be paying to read your letters, please make them worth reading. If you are sincere in your interest in me and your intentions, you will be considerate in this regard. I will also want to communicate with you via email in future, and although I cannot read or speak Russian yet, I can translate your letters. If you can write in English though, it will help us tremendously.
My search and intentions here are very serious, but I cannot be expected to visit and meet you if I cannot get acquainted with you beforehand.
I AM NOT A SEX TOURIST, and will always treat you with utmost RESPECT, but because we are both adults looking for love, a long term relationship, and maybe even marriage, and because I believe that making love (sex) will be an integral part of such a relationship, I believe that we should be able to discuss it too in future. We need to know each other, don't you agree? 😉
Making love is important to me and I love it, but sex is NOT the only thing on my mind. I would however appreciate to meet ladies that like making love too, and are not afraid to talk about it, and explore intimate feelings and experiences.
Since joining this site almost two years ago, I have not been with any lady, and will not cheat on you.
I like to say what I feel, and am not afraid to show my emotions or love.
If you are not extremely serious, do not waste your or my time, please, because I am serious, and will not waste your time. 😁

I like woman that are good looking and sexy, and especially petite and small built, but because life has taught me that beauty is not timeless, and that real beauty lies within, looks are not everything for me. I am however looking for the woman that is perfect for me, will make me happy, and most of all, LOVE me for whom and what I am. Beauty and looks will be added bonuses. 😁
I would like to meet a young lady between 18 and 30 but is open to any. She should be kind and gentle, attractive and well looked after. She must want to have a child with me, and come live with me in beautiful sunny South Africa. She should be passionate and sensual, loving and kind, positive and independent, fun to be with, elegant, respectful and loyal. I like woman who are sportive, active and spontaneous. She should want to be my better half, and would want to start a family with me. I know how to respect and treat a lady, and she should be able to love me and respect me, as I will love and respect her. I do not cheat, and believe that marriage is forever.
I have been through bad relationships, and want a lady that will not cheat, or leave me for another man. I want someone that will grow old with me, and love me to eternity.
