About Me


Derrik style from ghetto portugee New Bedford. Hardworking and easy going, partyin up, havin fun and most importantly my faith which challenges me to live life like their ain't no tomorrow. I have learned time and time again life is just way to short. Things happen for a reason.. The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Livin each day and making the most of everything that comes along my way. I love all tha people around me which includes my family and friends. Without em, I wouldn't be who I am today. I may not see or call them all the time, but the love I have for all of em is just too strong to even explain.
Im certainly, someone who can get along with anyone. I love life, I love to have fun, and im always up to pretty much anything. I ain't about perfection cause their aint such a thing. All about friendship, honesty, love, and most importantly respect. This comes hand in hand with my faith knowing that life could be alot worse. I don't hate anyone. I dont regret anything. Never did and never will! Life goes on.. Lessons make you a better person, trials test character. I have learned many things about life but most importantly to just be myself and never judge or will be judged! I find strenght, confidence, peace, and love by faith, friends, and family. I'am what I'am, and that's just what I am!

I'd like to meet:

I love to meet people who are content and easygoing. I love to laugh and have a have a good time! I surround myself with positive, down to earth, and supportive people. Work Hard, Play Hard! I like people who are trustworthy and aren't about themselves. I stray away from people who are distractive, complex, pushy, possessive, self-centered, or aggressive. I value RESPECT and ask for the same in return. Im all for friendship cause it's all good. I have been able to meet many people in my life, and I must admit most people have a lasting impression on my mind and heart. It's these people who will ALWAYS remain important to me.
