Good morning,
Thanks for the email. I am so happy to hear from you and I must thank you for responding to my email requesting you to contact me through my private email. I am not really into all these online stuff. My daughter registered the dating site and I managed to use it to reach you. I tried to check if there's any need for that and I saw your profile while searching on the site and read a little about you and think we have something in common, then I could not wait to email you after talking to myself for about 20 minutes.
I am a fund manager with British owned investments company (Esteem Capital Investments). I am a widower and I lost my precious wife 6 years ago, I will tell you more about her in my next letter to you, or when we do meet in person, face to face. I have a daughter who lives away from home. Kathleen is in aviation school in Germany. I do prefer the "old fashioned" method of meeting someone in person, but we live in an age where the internet definitely expands the circle of who you might meet today. I am a German and I was born and raised in Germany before moving here in the states 10 years ago. My mom still live in Germany with her only sister. I relocated here because of my job which landed me in Fresno California at first for some years, and now I am here in clearwater florida. I must tell you that I love it here in the states, and have decided to spend the rest of my life here with that special lady if I ever find her. I am tired of being alone and by myself.
Never sure where to start with a "stranger?" LOL. What do you want to know about me ? Like I stated in my online dating message to you, I am new to online dating and was encouraged by my daughter and my mom. They are tired of seeing me being alone. Anyway, Let me not bore you on how I got to the site and rather tell you more about me which was what I promised you on the dating site when I requested you to contact me via my personal email.
Well, I am outgoing and active, energetic and positive man. I am a bit of a clown, and playful, I love to laugh even at myself. I am a Fun loving, humble man that is neat. Oooh, I almost forgot to mention that I love to cook than to starve. I am positive on everything that life brings to me. I believe that I am where I am at this point in my life for a good reason. I am a honest and caring person who is very loyal to those around me. I have respect for every creature. I have traveled extensively in the course of doing my work and have learned a lot of cultures. I consider myself to be a gentleman with good values and financial stable.
I need someone whom we can start out as a good friends and see where it goes. Compatibility and friendship are gems to relationship. The rest of the journey would be enchanting to have a best friend, lover that I can rely on, and to find out that we are meant to be for each other would just make life complete and worth living every moment. I have to stop here so that I will have another thing to say in my next email, I will like you to tell me more about you. I wanted to write more but it seems I have rambled enough right now, and have bored you with a long note, lol, ask me anything you need to know about me, and I will be so glad to answer you. So tell me something about you. Have a great day. Hope to hear from you soon!
Regards,
Mathew.

Good morning my love ,
My directors arrived here and I have been so busy since their arrival, I am praying that everything will be over today by God's grace so that we can meet as soon as possible, but sure to leave as soon as they leave back to UK. Thank you so much for your trust and all you shared with me about your self I want you to know that you have nothing to worry about I am with you my love, for you to have this trust in me and for God to lead me to this site to meet you he has a suppose, nothing is going to change my mind towards you. I am anxiously and desperately looking forward to our meeting, I talk better in person than in the email word. You know that is hard to start up a conversation through email with someone since you don't know what you might do or say to get him or her angry, but I am out spoken and do not hide my feelings, I will always tell you the way I feel, than to die in silence or beat around the bush.
I want you to wake up and have this email waiting for you. I am going to face another day of business negotiations and financial transaction. I am happy that I am facing the day after a good night rest. It is good that I slept last night with you on my mind which made me to dream of you, though I didn't remember the dream when I get up this morning, but it was a good one. I think.
It's a new day and beautiful day and the first thing I am doing right now is to say good morning to the woman that is the only reason I smile these few days we met, and rush to my computer before starting my day or doing anything. I must say that am happy writing you. I am happy to wake up today having you as a good friend. This is one of the days that I wake up and the first thing that comes into my mind is to check my email and see if you have written me. Most time I panic with fear of not being disappointed but at the end it will turn out that your email will be there waiting for me, and the fear will disappear for happiness to return .lol.
You are just the person that I want to be with even without meeting you yet. This little period of email communication is enough for me to say so and I can say it again and again and even louder!
I want my last and equal relationship, because if I give you 100% and you give me 99.9% then who owns the other 1. this kind of relationship is hard to find these days, but I pray we will definitely find that since we are not teens and have been alone for so long, in this case we should know the value of a good man and woman in our lives.
When I get up this morning, I was laying on the bed thinking about us and the things we will do together when we do meet, interact and unite, thinking about all the things I will do to make you happy. The need for you right now is so strong and the thoughts of you is constantly plugging up my brain. Just wish I can drag the day to go faster now and slow down when we are together.
Well, today is the day that I have been waiting for; the day I have been working for and will be a very big day for me and Esteem Capital Investments and the Fidelity investors. We are hoping to conclude on the transaction today. If everything goes fine, then we will agree on when to go and sign the contract with the company. I need all the luck in this world today. I need only the right words and calculation to come out of my mouth today. I need to be at my best. I don't want to be under pressure doing what I do best but the company puts so much faith in me that they sound almost 100% sure that I will succeed which puts me in a tight corner because they don't expect me to fail.
I will tap their faith and leave the rest to God. I may be their best Fund manager but sometime you need luck to have it all. I need your prayers today and I hope that you will bring me the luck I need because meeting you was a kind of divine intervention.
Please pray for my success. It's the day I have been working for almost one year to convince these people to invest with us. I will give you details of it when we talk on phone or my next next email. It's my day and I am grabbing it.
I am anxiously waiting for the day we will meet and unite completely. Don't forget that in between everything that I am thinking of you always. I will not let anything or anyone come between us now. God is the head of our lives as we have been apart and we will continue to trust and believe in Him. It is Him who lead our path and give us the strength to keep holding on!!!
Well, my dear, got to go now' So, I will close for now. Have a great morning on purpose!!!! Talk to you soon. Remember to send me your pictures okay...
Always,
Mathew.
