"The Jim"

Live everyday like it will be your last.........you never know.

About Me

Well I'm on here mostly to reconnect with old friends & to make new ones. I've been employed at the same company for over 11 years. Prior to that I was a chef for 5 years, I love to cook. I practice 4 styles of martial arts now and work out on a daily basis. I love to do crazy things, never live your life in the "what if" or "i should have". You never know when your number will be pulled. I am a workaholic, just something I use as an escape. I love the water and the beach, kind of odd since I live where there is none of that, but there will be soon. My 4 year old niece means the world to me as do my friends and family. I lived most of my life in the small town in NY called Honeoye Falls. Moved to Buffalo, NY for awhile then to Boston, MA and now finally I'm here in wonderful Albany, NY...Create or get your

"Nobody is perfect until you fall in LOVE with them" "Everything is OKAY in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the END" "Most people walk in and out of your life, but only FRIENDS leave footprints in your heart""How can you break my fuckin heart and still tell me you love me?"
The Keys to Your Heart
You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved.

You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is 0%. You are suited for a monogamous relationship.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily. What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

I'd like to meet:

The late Bruce and Brandon Lee, they had so much to give and left us too soon........
