Hi Pretty,
I would first like to tell you exactly who John Brown is... This email will reflect on my life so you would have a better understanding of who I really am.
There will be things that you will like and some that you might not be happy with. I think you should know enough things to make a choice for yourself.

I'm John Brown like you already know, 45 years old live in Florida ( In a big City called Maimi), I'm Divorced and I have a son 5 yrs... I was born in
Kiev Ukraine (former USSR) and from a Russian couple. My dad died when I was around 4 years old and I am not 100% American.

My family, Grandparents, Mother, and my little sister left Kiev in 1972 ( my little sister is a deaf and dumb)..We moved to Italy. In 1980 we moved to
New York. When I turned 17, my mother married a man who lived in Colorado, and that is where I have been living ever since. The man that she had married
was very abusive to me and my mother. He would often beat us. At about age 19 when I got admitted into Rhode Island College, I decided that I had enough
of him. I told my mother it is either me or him. She divorced him and we purchased a condo together. I swore that I would NEVER be like him to my woman.

I went to college for 3yrs course and I graduated from College as a civil engineer and at age 22, I had my own business. It was successful for about 3 years.
My mother said that I would never be rich because I care about too many people, and business owners must be ruthless to survive. After I closed my business,
I worked for a company for about 8 years.

I have had three serious girlfriends ever in my life, one short relationships and 2 long relationship, I got married for 10 yrs to the last lady I had before she

divorced
me 5 years ago. She left... Honest truth...I have only asked about 3 girls out on a date in my life. Majority of dates and my relationships
were on the girls asking me out. I have a problem dating women in my age bracket because I look a lot younger than I really am.

She (my ex wife) was smart and came from a very rich family. She had gone to school with Paris Hilton, Nichole Richie, and majority of the Jackson kids. She did not value to many things because she never really had to pay for much. Her mother would really spoil her with luxurious and
expensive gifts. After we separated, I found myself about $75,000 in debt. I decided that I would move back home temporary and try to set my life back on
track. It has been little more than 5yrs now since we have broken up. I have paid off my debt. I told myself that I would try not to date any woman that
comes from a very rich family like her, except the one that worked so hard for her money and know the essence of working for money. I have worked very hard
for everything that I own. I would like to be with someone that is not selfish, nice and very caring.

Enough of that... I enjoy boating, hiking, camping,fishing, nature, walks on the beach, sunsets, movies, music, cooking, and quiet nights at home.
I'm currently a Contractor working as a petroleum refining consultant for a large multinational corporation. I travel to Europe,Australia-New Zealand,
and Asia on work-related assignments. I am a God fearing man, with good morals and values, am honest, I do not cheat or play games, I can't stand seeing
some one been intentionally hurt I have had my heart broken before and will never pass that kind of pain to a woman.
Await Your response to tell you More About Me.
John Brown.

Hi Dear,
I so much appreciate your mail and I want you to know that I am very much interested in you and am not on here for games but to meet a serious minded woman to grow old with I really have been hurt and have been toyed with emotionally by women but that is of the past and by the way not a big deal to me any more. I have been single for more a lot years and haven't been into dating scene cos have be very busy between work ,I really think its time for me to find the one woman to spend the rest of my life with and take a bold step in settling down with the right woman, Please be aware am not into head games not into emotional manipulations, I am looking to meet a serious minded woman. I am a God fearing man, with good morals and values, I am honest and direct, I do not cheat and I cannot stand to see a person intentionally hurt another person. I have had my heart broken before and will never pass that kind of pain to any woman. I'm a simple man with a big heart. You will find that I am very caring, understanding, patient,loving and kind.
I'm lover of mankind,respect women a lot. Also a very easy going man who loves and cherishes kids alot so if you must know if you don't like kids then I think am not
the man for you. I am truly a lover and not a fighter, I also love fun times.especially fun jokes an good rib cracking laughs.I am very serious minded individual who
enjoys meeting people of different backgrounds and ethnicity,race,religion and creed will not impede my goal to knowing you, As you can see my goal is to meet someone who is lovable,kind hearted,for romance,love and a possibility for marriage. I would like to be with a woman who has fun and humour in her heart, a lover of kids,a faith based individual and family Oriented.Knowing me will totally blow your mind because I enjoy the company of good people with style to life. I seek somebody who can Control her emotions in times where reasoning is more appropriate, not afraid of the Alternatives life throws at her. Remember that a friend is always good to have, but a lover's kiss is better than angels raining down on me, Friends are angels that come from above. Sent down from God for you to love. So if you are sad, and don't know what to do. Just remember that you have just met a man who would love and care for you like no man has ever done in as much as I get the same back.
I know you might have been hurt before, so I wouldn't want you to think that you have been hurt before... I want you to forget the past and face the future for we
don't all know what the future might holds for us, I am telling you this cos I know it will be so hard for someone to love and beloved if he/she doesn't forget that
he/she has been hurt before, we just have to be very prayerful and trust God for trust is one of the foundations of love.
I am not here to play with anybody's heart here and God knows that, I have been taking care of my heart by myself cos I want to focus in life..I don't believe there
are still good woman out there again, but am trusting God at the moment and am ready to unleash all the loves, care, emotions and passions I have been keeping inside me for so long, I am the kind of man who spoils his woman with so much love and who treats his woman with so much respect, who makes his woman so much happy, who makes his woman feel so much special, who makes his woman feel like the most beautiful and precious woman in the whole world.
Come on girl, I cant believe I have wrote a full page of letter... Gosh, hope I have not been repeating word after word... lol... I have to stop here for now and hear
what you have to say too without bragging... lol. So let me stop here and will be looking forward to hearing back from you real soon, bye for now and take very good
care of yourself.

lots of love,
John.
