Brett
42 Chicago, Illinois, United States
Seeking: Female 35 - 40
Note: Visa to visit Russia just approved. Where should I go? Short Version: Just a fun loving, ambitious guy looking for a fun loving, ambitious girl to conquer the world with. It'd be great if she had her own minions, as my supply is running a bit low (I've got more on back order, but you know how it is with Home Despot.....). Long version: I wear more hats than Bartholomew Cubbins. Started learning Russian. I've only really got the alphabet down, but maybe a lovely lady might help me start to learn some words and phrases. Slowly! ;) Fitness and healthy eating are very important. I lift 4-5 days a week, with some HIIT cardio mixed in here and there. I eat Keto day-to-day, but have no problem splurging. I'm a construction engineer. I manage large, complex road and bridge projects. I love making you late for work. I cook. Ask me about my awesome dinner parties. Specialty: Plum Braised Lamb. I'm handy. I did about 50% of my condo renovations myself. I'm currently on the lookout for a house to tackle, shooting for near 100% myself. I'll probably leave the gas lines to an expert. I make wine, beer, whiskey, and everything in between. Don't tell the ATF about the whiskey. My specialty is mead (alcohol fermented from honey). My greatest achievement is a 20% Russian Imperial Stout. In Soviet Russia, beer drinks you! I volunteer, mostly military charities. Wounded Warriors, Soldier's Angels, etc. I'm a beekeeper. Don't worry though. My bees have accepted Jesus Christ as their personal savior. They won't sting you, but they will pray for your salvation. I'm not from Chicago, and my family is pretty far flung. We're pretty tight knit, so I travel a couple times a year to go visit them. Visiting other places is great, don't get me wrong, but as a single guy family is better. I do have my list of places I want to visit, I just need someone to go with me. I dance badly. Really, really badly. There are UN Resolutions against my dancing, but that doesn't stop me. I'm a bibliophile. My house will always have a lending library. I actually own a bar code scanner explicitly for this purpose. I rescue animals. Sometimes from burning buildings, but mostly from shelters. Disclaimer: House, wife, 2.5 (step?)kids, dog, white picket fence, etc, etc. That's the goal. I'm looking to "date with purpose", not for fun. ~If you're not in it for love; If you're not, willin' to give it all you got; If you're not in it for life; If you're not in it for love..... Let me make it clear, to you my dear.... If you're not in it for love, I'm outta here!~ (Shania Twain) (Disclaimer: 42 not 39. It won't let me edit my age without putting in my social security number. Sorry, no.)

Photos aded 11/2/2022. 3 is at a distillary, putting bourbon from a barrel into my own bottle. While I do not condone violence you may 'kick' me, treegeek62.' It seems I'm the perfect guy on here! Don't believe me? Ask any woman living in Kenya!! So I am often asked what I'm looking for? Well, usually my keys!! Sometimes my glasses as well. Relationships, love, aren't things we "look for"; they occur naturally, over time, time spent wisely with another in person. It occurs via open, honest communication. Not tomorrow, or next weekend. One date =one date, nothing more. So..onwards.... OK first things first here. I'm in Mount Vernon, IL, not Carbondale. That wasn't an option though. So rather than start this the usual way, with lots of data and stats, like I'm 60, divorced, no children BLAH BLAH BLAH..or far worse,the ever lovable "I hate filling these things out..." because truth be told, I do not hate anything in life, I figure I'd start by just asking you some questions, and see if we are on the same path. So let's get started shall we? Ok so your first question is, Are you here hoping to find a man you can make happy in life? If so, I'm afraid this will be an exercise in futility for you here. You see, I AM HAPPY IN LIFE! Chances are if you're compatible with me on many levels, I will choose to be happy with you as well. So, moving on..Are you seeking, desiring a man that you can make whole and complete..and in turn will also make you whole and complete? Here again, I beat you to the punch. I AM WHOLE AND COMPLETE! Who amongst us is a truly incomplete individual? Are you at all interested in finding a partner who will love you and accept you for who you are? I may be able to do this, but first it is imperative that you can honestly say I LOVE AND ACCEPT MYSELF FOR WHO I AM! Expecting me to do something you aren't willing to do yourself?? Hardly seems fair now doesn't it? Are you looking for love in others? Chances are you're not going to find it. THE LOVE WE SEEK IS WITHIN OURSELVES! Lots of folks don't seem to get this concept. Let's say you want to borrow $500 from me. Now if I don't have it for myself, I can hardly be expected to lend it to you. Same holds true for love. If I am devoid of love for myself, I certainly don't have any to share with you. As it is, I HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF LOVE, PEACE, AND HAPPINESS TO SHARE WITH OTHERS! Are you seeking a God-fearing "Christian" man? Well, I hate to disappoint but I REPLACE ANY FEARS IN MY MIND WITH LOVE AND FAITH! If you identify as Christian, I don't believe as you do at all most likely. As a Recovering Catholic, and spiritual being, I see no useful purpose but only harm in harboring feelings of guilt, fear, and unworthiness. I don't claim to be Atheist or Agnostic either though I do identify more closely with them. Same holds true for those who are Pagan and Wiccan. Yet, i have to be Something right?? I am something. I AM ONE WITH EVERY LIVING THING. I identify as straight but I accept and embrace all lifestyles, orientations, and genders. We love who we love. I love women. He loves other guys. SO WHAT?? If the "Christian" thing to do is to hate and demonstrate that hatred, I pass. I much prefer to accept what is, and love my neighbor. HMM Where have I heard that before?? I have many interests in life. Hopefully you share some of mine. Nature, the outdoors. Fairs and festivals. Anything artistic and cultural. Travel, weekend getaways.Bowling, pool, darts. Beaches. Good food, good drink, good intelligent conversation. Live music, movies..and someone to share them all with. Life is about experiences..let's start having a few shall we?? Namaste and Blessed be!
