I am originally from Kiev(Ukraine), but moved down to North Carolina when I was 22, so besides english, I am also fluent in ukrainian and russian as well. I've lived all over but my favorite was the couple years I spent in Los Angeles and New York City. My close friends would say that I am a very friendly, polite, nice, honest, positive, faithful, witty, funny, little sarcastic, intelligent and confident person. I am kind of quite with people I don't know, but when I get to know you its going to be very hard for me to stop talking, lol. I have a great smile, and emotionally and financially stable. I don't judge people I get to know them. I enjoy good music and of course good company. My life goals and aspirations is to just be happy. I would like to be very successful in life also but happiness will always last a lifetime. I've traveled a lot and like to go out, but I still enjoy slow nights at home, watching a movie or reading a book. I've been in financial sales, retail banking and customer services for more than 10 years. I go to a SportCenter Athletic Club in Kernersville almost everyday for swimming, elliptical, treadmill, jacuzzi and sauna.

I would like to meet someone that I could become great friends with. Friendship is the foundation for a great relationship. Of course I would be lying if I said looks do not matter. There has to be initial attraction for both. After initial attraction, there also has to be chemistry. How would it work otherwise? The combination of the two is very hard to find.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.(Helen Keller)

Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.

To be a friend and give freely, to know how to love and to know how to receive, only comes when we are ready to accept and embrace the company of someone else...

Looks will wither but your personality can enchant the day away.

Don't ask for something you are not ready to give yourself.

Assuming can get you in trouble is best to ask away.

"Love isn't finding someone you can live with, it's finding someone you can't live without."

"True love comes once in a lifetime ... open your eyes and your heart and see the miracle in front of you."

Why do so many waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love???

Do you walk away from "The Faith" because you have found there are some cracks in the stained glass? Or do you stick with it to find the greater truth?
