About Me

CHRISTOPHER MARTIN: /kris-to-fer-mar-tin/ [n, proper] (english, hungarian, or french descent): THIRTY! year-old strong gay man pushing his way through life on the fastest, smoothest path he knows how, sharing smiles and taking time to laugh along the way, sipping up cocktails and speaking French, making mistakes along the way. Just waiting to win the lottery so those cocktails are ingested at 30,000 feet on his way somewhere in the world he has yet to visit, smoking and enjoying his time.**WHAT I LIKE: I like soft, newly laundered bed sheets and my feet in the sand. I like far away places and great times with my friends. I like the sound of riding over grates of a draw bridge in my car and European telephone rings. I like sunshine on my face and meditteranean cuisine. I like papers folded neatly and flags in the wind. I like sipping espressos in cafes in France and Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain. Harmony and inspiration. I like airplane food and dancing in the rain. I like a strange Dallas wind. I like the way the French say 'sweet dreams' "Make beautiful dreams" (Fait de beaux reves) and what comes next...**WHAT I DON'T LIKE: I don't like the sound the alarm clock makes right before it gets me up EVER. I don't like loud noises on a quiet day or deflated expectations. I don't like lima beans or friendships lost. I don't like microwave meals or cabin fever, an ungratifying cigarette or a colorless sunrise.

My Interests

GOOD TIMES /gud-tymez/ (n,pl): Swell periods to be enjoyed with your friends being crazy, laughing, or exchanging meaningful/less philosophy.** I like quiet time to myself, endless summer days, and speaking French. Read a good book, watch some great cinema, take a long drive. Having cocktails and dancing, laughin your arse off. Good theater and great meals. Cooking. Wine tasting. Great conversations.

I'd like to meet:

COOL PEOPLE /kool-pee-pull/ [n,pl]: Drama free boys and girls who want to make the best out of their experience here on Planet Earth spreading positive energy and good times to be shared by all.**BOYS: Be kind and friendly, intelligent and sincere. Strive for success and be sure that your life is headed in some sort of positive or creative direction. Positivity. Enjoy traveling (the farther the better). Enjoy a nice balance in your life between love, friends, career, and yourself. Like to snuggle on the couch watching good movies with a good bottle of wine and know how to get out and shake your groove thang. Anytime, anywhere, and I mean it.**GIRLS: (see 'BOYS:') Be a good friend and love to laugh. Tell me stories and watch me smile. Help find me a good man and please listen to me when I struggle.
