A New Chapter Begins

About Me

Hey everyone, and welcome to "OFFICIAL" Rob Fuss Myspace page! ;)
It's hard to really know me. I've got friends and family all over the world, but no one that truly understands what makes me tick. Truth is I'm not even sure what makes me tick. In any case; whether you're already a friend of mine and are just trying to keep in touch, or you're completely new to my realm and looking for a new acquaintence: I think you'll find everything you need to know about me on this page. For one, I can write about myself forever it seems, sometimes more than I probably should, (lol), and for two, I like the idea of having all my cards on the table for you to see so it's a sure bet on whether or not I'm what you're looking for in a friend. So enjoy what you see and read and maybe we'll be talking soon. Have a nice day!
My name is Robert Fuss, but pretty much everyone calls me either Rob, or by my last name. I'm not quite sure WHY the Fussinskis shortened their name when they got off the boat at Ellis Island, but be rest assured I'll be having words with them when I kick the bucket for the grief I went through in grade school! ;)~ I'm a Capricorn, born 11:59pm on December 31, 1982. I was the last baby born in Philadelphia that year apparently.
(PAST) I grew up with a few different families; one in Bensalem, PA and one in Riverton, NJ. They were related which made their guardianship over me easy since they could always switch off when one family got sick of me, lol. I was a smart kid growing up, but had a huge chip on my shoulder. When I was 15, they found my real mother living up in New Hampshire, where I was sent, that not lasted very long. It turns out my mother was a raging and abusive alcoholic, so as you'd imagine I was placed back into the system. I bounced around alot but ultimately made Nashua, NH my home for about 7 years. I tried so hard to be somebody that my reputation now precedes me in New England. Don't get me wrong, I've made so many friends it's ridiculous, but the things I was getting involved in were not so good for me. If it weren't for my fiance at the time, I probably would've been dead a long time ago. Eventually, even she turned out to be no good for me, so at 22 I picked up and left. I spent a couple years in Delaware and a short period in New Jersey but ultimately came back to Philadelphia about 2 years ago. I was looking to start over, make a new core group of friends, find a new person to share my life with if appropriate, and simply live a good life.
(PRESENT) When I moved to Philadelphia, I was a bisexual with a broken heart. The gay community is actually who is responsible for mending my heart so fast and giving me a new strength to work with in reference to starting my life over. I met a guy named Cory Lamoureux. We have been living together and monogomously dating for on and off a little over two years now. I never thought I'd actually be with a guy for this long. Guys used to be a "behind closed doors" thing for me, but now I'm extremely open about it, holding hands walking through downtown, kissing in public, showing affection around friends..I definitely love him. We've had our share of problems, but when it comes down to black and white, we're exactly what the other needs right now. So, now we're renting a room together in South Philadelphia. Both of us just started new jobs, both servers in fine-dining restaraunts, and are trying t get our lives in order. Currently, I'm playing catch up. A lot of people have helped me out financially to see that I made it this far, and now that I'm here I'm little by little paying off every single debt I've ever had.
(FUTURE) Preferably sooner than later, Cory and I will be getting a loft or high-rise somewhere in Center City. I'm also trying to get my GED as soon as possible. (Yeah, that's right, I got kicked out of every highschool I ever attended. I told you, chip on the shoulder.) As soon as I do get the GED, I'm hoping to get into Temple University for entrepenuership. I want to run my own restaraunt or two, and have a few other businesses in my portfolio as well. I was thinking along the lines of 2 restaraunts, a bar, a pizza shop, maybe 2 or 3 laundry mats, and a bunch of real estate to be landlord of. Cory's even starting to talk about marraige, and although I'm only just getting used to being openly gay, I'm thinking about it as well. Other than that, I care about bettering myself, financially as well as my personality and character. I want to be a good guy with a good life...I may be asking too much, lol...only time will tell.

My Interests

I think I'm the easiest person to hang out with. I am into almost anything you can think of. I read a lot, I write poetry and am working on my first book, I play video games, I'm on Warcraft, I love watching TV and movies and listening to all kinds of music. I like to learn random facts and be the smart one in the room. I like traveling, partying, bar-hopping, outdoor sports, working out, clubbing, debating, socializing, and I make a huge effort in trying to make the world a better place, even if it's just smiling all day to hopefully cause a chain reaction and have everyone in the city smiling.(Far-fetched, I know but this is how I think, lol.)

I'd like to meet:

I have never been picky on who I spoke with or hung out with. Even in high school I'd hang out with the thugs one hour, the freaks the next, the cool kids the geeks the cheerleaders, the jocks...I was always really good at being friends with everybody and that remains true today. Age is just a number to me, although I highly doubt I'm going to be having a beer with any twelve years olds or going to the Eagle's games with any 50 year olds.

For the most part, as long as you're a good person and our interests match, we'll be good friends and I can't wait to meet you. But if you're a scumbag, a liar, a theif, a stalker, or just trying to get laid....don't waste my time and please just stop reading now.
