Ok, to answer the first question, i lost my feet because the veins in my legs calcified, from diabetes, but i don`t take any insuline or pills for it. i don't remember, but the doctors told my folks it was like taking a blowtorch to my skin.

i don`t know i don`t remember, which is aparently good, so i've been told. i'm actually about 99% myself again, except i can't drive right now, but i will start clases again soon. i gave myself until Christmas to be able to walk on my own without any help, and i've been advancing very well. People say i ALWAYS HAVE A SMILE ON MY FACE, hey, i'm just a happy person, i've got good friends, a wonderful family (we are kind of smart asses daily!)
I'm simple and complex all in one

... I'm quite self aware, and know what I want out life and what i have to do to get those things.. no matter how quickly or slowly, i do not give up. I'm very positive and outgoing. I often make people laugh or laugh at myself. I have a good sense of humour and find it helps me deal with difficult situations. I enjoy the simple beauties of the outdoors. So instead of riding my bike, I'd rather take a strole in the market. And instead of rollerblading I'd love to go on a scenic kayaking tour.
So what am i looking for, well, i prefer white guys, as a first, someone who is romantic, but not a push over or a sap. I like someone who is like me, and can accept me for who i am, ALL OF ME. I can do just about anything i put my mind to. I'd like a guy who is a good listener and eventually knows he can trust me and tell me anything, or poor his heart out to me. I just don't like having to make all the decisions for where to go, what to do etc etc etc. Someone who can be creative with surprises or kindness. Someone with a sense of humour, my whole family are a bunch of smart asses..lol
My passions are cooking and to one day travel. But I've only been in the U.S.A (East coast). and to Puerto Vaillarta I LOVE cooking like roast beef with yorkshire pudding and all the sides, or turkey and the fixings, or just a simple quiche, but I LOVE BBQ!
I'm very independent and i can put to anything i want to. I have good family and friends who care for me, but every now and then I miss the things that are better done WITH someone...like renting a movie and bringing in some take-out and cuddling on the couch.. or doing a weenkend tour to Boston or NYC, or Gananoque or walking on the market and sampling the fresh fruits and veggies.. enjoying the scenery and the company. Or starting a playfight for no reason... I miss having someone I call for no reason in the middle of the day just to say hi so I can hear his voice. But most of all, someone who feels the same about me.
I love buying random gifts for my friends to see a smile on their face and to let them know I was thinking of them. Or listening to childhood memories and looking at photo albums and hearing the stories that go with them.

I also like to be romantic .. cook a nice meal for my man

, or bring it to his office for a pic nic... I pay attention to my friend's likes and dislikes.. the little things... not just favourite food or colour. And i'm looking for someone who doesn't make me make all the decisions. i want to find someone who is romantic, on his own terms.
i like most music, especially if there is a story behindit. i listen to mostly pop, but i also listen to acid rock (hard stuff like alexisonfire or metalica, AC/DC.... and so on. the last concert i went to was KISS at the scotiabank place.... in 2001! I like to listen to the radio or just about anything that is new. So take a chance... mail me and see what i have to offer.
I don't believe you can find true love with a system similar to that used by police to file mug shots... relax people.. remember how dating was done before internet? I just want to get to know someone... if it evolves great.. but it wont evolve by the 4th conversation... so if you are patient, and maybe a little scared like me.. then maybe we should talk.
Oh, and I'm a huge smart ass

.. although I appreciate all life has to offer, I like doing it with a sarcastic comment...oh, and i like a smoke if i drink, but i quit smoking about 2 years ago.
A C C O R D I N G TO P L E N T Y OF F I S H HERE IS WHAT I WANT
WHAT YOU "SAY" YOU WANT
Your scores on the "Lost in Translation Test" suggest that you want a man who's "highly accomplished and driven as well as strongly values outward physical chemistry."
WHAT YOU "REALLY" WANT
According to relationship experts, what you seem to be looking for is an "ADONIS." An Adonis is well-poised to meet the hidden or unspoken needs you might actually be trying to fill in a search for a relationship. An Adonis is...
Someone with a strong sense of self, purpose and importance that lends itself to bolstering your personal identity, sense of worth and even social image.
Someone who can provide you (and any present or future children) with financial stability that is or has been lacking in your life.
Someone who's ready and able to give you freedom and support for your personal or professional goals.
Someone who demands respect and makes a good impression on others.
Someone who'll always strive to make you feel attractive, desirable and loved by providing undivided attention and a sense of physical security.
Someone who'll make you feel young and alive. Someone who'll renew your passion for life by opening your eyes to new experiences and opportunities.
Someone who enjoys their sensual nature and who puts thought into maintaining a healthy sense of one's sexual self outside of the bedroom.
Someone strives for longevity by being true to a physically and psychologically healthy lifestyle, which includes taking pride in his appearance and working at being physically attractive to you.

Usually just go for a coffee, or a nice dinner, that way there's not time limit. Something so we can get to know each other, talk and enjoy our time together!
