I'm artistic yet mathematical. I'm patient and yet always in a hurry to start the next thing. I'm settled and still yearn for adventure. I'm optimistic and stubborn and slightly absent minded. My powers of self delusion are sufficient to convince me that I have an excellent sense of humour. I'm addicted to tea, crumpets with melted cheese on, real ale and procrastination. I'm trying to give up procrastinating. I'll do that tomorrow. I'm a people person and I really like to spend time with my friends. I do need a bit of 'me' time now and again though. I'm easily pleased. The only things I can think of off the top of my head that I don't like are politicians and some romatic comedies-not all.. Everything else is good. I enjoy my job and feel that it is in some small way making the world a better place. Just learnt to ride a motorbike. Went on a tour round europe with a friend of mine. That was great. I like going to plays and gigs and comedy shows. I like to watch people perform live as it has an energy you just don't get at a cinema. I'm very much of the opinion that while a career is important it's more important to work to live rather than live to work. I’m really good atSeeing both sides of a situation. Cooking breakfast. Procrastinating. I'm also really good at seeing the good in things. I find that even when I don't like something I can appreciate what it is other people see in it. The first thing people usually notice about memy height.. My favorite books, movies, music, and food: Japanese food , French food.. I like food:) Cheese on toast. Cheese on crumpets. Cheese in general. Books: Terry pratchett. Umberto Eco,Isaac Asimov. Robert Rankin. Bill Bryson. So many others. Music: Pink Floyd, Kaiser Chiefs, Judas Priest, Motorhead, Syd Barret, Mika, Scissor sisters. Movies: Aliens, Amelie, Blazing Saddles, The cube, Dodgeball. Genres I like are comedies, sci fi, Horror, thrillers, fantasy. I'll give most things a go if someone tells me it's good. Comedy: Bill Hicks, Bill Bailey, Eddie Izzard, Chris Rock. The six things I could never do withoutTea, beer, cheese, friends, laughter, tolerance. (And motorbikes and computers and shiny things and nice clothes and eating out and going skiing and biscuits and pudding with custard and books and films and music and going to plays and gigs and comedy shows) I spend a lot of time thinking aboutI day dream and imagine what I would do if I were king of the world. I wonder about what it is that constitutes identity. I wonder about what the human race will learn in the future. Will we find a way to continue our current way of life without destroying the planet? What will happen when the oil runs out. Will I be here to see it? How do they get the creme into a cadburies cream egg? Why does my neck warmer always go missing the day before a cold snap? Why do I never check the weather forecast? On a typical Friday night I am doing something fun. The most private thing I’m willing to admit hereI love cheese;) You should message me if you're looking to meet someone who is up front, honest and genuine. If you want handsome, smart, charming and sexy you're in luck as well. ;)

I'm interested in travel and exploring new places .. last year I spent six months in Europe (Poland), for work. For my next trip, I'm thinking Austria or Iceland .. Two years ago I traveled to Tokyo .. one of the best trips ever. I stayed in the Shiodome complex. Anyway - here is more detail on myself .. I really like checking out new restaurants, some of my favorites are Carriage House, Gilt Bar, Tavernita, Embeya, Girl and Goat, Province, and Blackbird. I'm a big fan of Chicago (been here 20 years now), and especially the Northwest Side. The parks, architecture, and boulevard system lend themselves well to long walks (or bike rides) which I am fond of. Things I really enjoy are neighborhood fests, outdoor concerts, and meeting friends for dinner or the occasional beer. In July I checked out Pitchfork (three day pass) .. great time!

I love to laugh and have fun. I consider myself to be an easy going, fun loving, caring and honest person. I believe in being committed to a relationship. I like many things and I am fairly open to trying something new. I love all kinds of movies, music, enjoy dining out, going out for walks, bike rides, Working out and stay in good shape, I find pleasure in a variety of things, such as assisting my woman in the kitchen, traveling, watching movies, and also outdoor activities.

I am 4th Japanese American. Both sides of my family are from Hiroshima Down to earth, loyal, and trustworthy, I appreciate the little things in life. I am family-oriented and I will bend over backwards for those close to me. I suffer from the youngest child syndrome which makes me naturally silly. I love all things music and try to see at least 1-2 shows a week. My favorite is alternative rock and EDM. I love to dance and sing. I'm kind of a smartass but I always have warm intentions.

My name is Stephen and I currently do office work for an International Cargo Airline in Chicago. I'm of British descent and I am highly interested in travel. I am absolutely fascinated with the Japanese culture and find it incredibly appealing and alluring. I studied at vocation college to be a preschool teacher but didn't finish. I enjoy simple work and during my spare time enjoy cooking, reading books, drinking and going out. I am hoping to meet someone here who has thoughts towards the future.

Hi I am Erik. I am a California guy living in Chicago due to my work. I am an airline Captain for United Express. I moved to Chicago when I upgraded to Captain. I have lived in Chicago, Texas, and my home state of California as well as Japan for a year. I am a huge water person, I love the ocean, and am an avid surfer. I enjoy music and am learning to play the guitar. I would like to meet a Japanese woman for a relationship, I have many Japanese friends both here in the United States as well as in Japan. I love to travel to Japan and experience the culture, the history and some of the great food! I absolutely love ramen noodles.. Oishi desu! I am looking for a cute, smart, and sophistcated woman to explore the future with. Could it be you? Please email me or show interest and let's see where things go! Ganburimasu! Overall, I am a very easy going guy... I like to just hang out at the beach, listen to some great music and generally try to be a happy person. Fortunately my current career choice allows me to travel quite freely and also allows me a great chance to meet some great women. Please don't get me wrong... I am not a player, I am a gentleman and I am here for all the right reasons. I don't just jump on a jet and fly off to see someone if I don't think there is a good chance at a great connection. So please feel free to check out my profile, drop me a line, and le't see where it goes from there.... My pictures are all fairly recent. I tend to take pictures of things and not of myself. But I will try to put some really current ones up in the very near future. The only picture which is rather old, is the one on my firetruck. That was taken a number of years back by a photographer at a fire scene that we were responding to. I am in the truck getting ready to enter a buring building, hence the look of stress on my face. But I thought that it was a really great pic and decided to include it in my profile. I still would love to respond to the call, jump on a rig, hear the sirens, and help people out. Once a fireman, always a fireman. No matter I am a pilot now, I will always be a fireman at heart

I'm a good, decent and kind man looking for someone to start a life with. I work in Chicago, and have lots of friends, but finally realize that I want to meet someone who can share the good and bad in life with. I want children and a family. I want a partner, a lover and a friend. I like to write, and have had my writing published. Someday, I hope to write full time, but I still work full time and write part time. This doesn't mean that my nose is always on a book. I live by a great big lake, and spend most of my Summer and Spring somewhere on the lake. :) I am not perfect-looking, but think I am attractive because of my approach to life: I treat all people, men and women as I find them. If they are jerks, I ignore them. If they are intelligent, have emotional and intellectual depth to them, I hang around them. I am a 'man' and not a 'guy'. A guy thinks with the Little Head (below the belt), while a 'man' makes his decisions with the Big Head (above the neck). This doesn't mean that I don't get urges; it means that I know how to address them. My pleasure is not worth someone else's pain I am generous, kind and sometimes a big kid at heart. I like animals and little kids. I deeply believe in family and am interested in starting one with someone I meet here, kids being an eventuality, not a possibility. I am a one-woman man; its just too exhausting to give my love and attention to more than one woman. If I am with you, then you get all of my attention, but I am not clingy or jealous. Jealousy is for people who don't like themselves enough to trust that their partner loves them for the right reasons.

I am highly educated and have my masters in applied mathematics and quantitative physics, with my bachelors in computer science. I work in the financial industry (Trading/Software) so I'm very scientific and a total numbers man, which I guess makes me a little bit of a geek... I enjoy the outdoors, especially during the summer (not a big winter fan). I can cook and love to entertain good company. I like watching movies; mysteries/comedies are my favorites. I enjoy learning about new things and exploring. I like to read but the book has to keep me excited to turn the next page. I am divorced and have no kids. I smoke and am currently trying to quit (it not easy but I will succeed one day!), I don’t drink much other than a glass of wine or two when I am out. I come from a large loving family which is mostly women (the only male in 20 years, weird huh?), so I know how to be a gentleman and express my love. I don't play games and am honest, hard-working and giving in many ways. I am a partner in my firm, so I tend to work hard and long, which I guess is why I decided to try this approach to finding my special woman... I am definitely a person that is very open and have no problems expressing my true feelings or opinions when needed. More importantly I am extremely happy with my life and have a great family with many wonderful friends. I just feel that my life would be more complete if I could just find someone really special to share it all with!

I am an easy guy and love to make people laugh, matter a fact, some of my friends think i'm goofy. I am big on traveling, and would love to see and travel around the world before i die. I have been to China, Switzerland, Canada, Central America, Germany, and Spain. I also like to meet people from other countries, because you can learn something new all the time. I love sports and fitness. Some of the things i like doing when i'm not busy, is swimming, running, kickboxing, and snowboarding in the winter time. I love trying new foods from around the world, and especially Japanese food. My favorite junk food is ice cream yum! yum! and pizza. I love to challenge myself and keep a positive mind. When i can, i like to read a good book or go see a movie with friends. I like to listen to pop, hip hop, house, and some tecno. I'm the type of guy who just like to enjoy life to the fullest.
