Sharon:
WOW!
Like you have a lot going for you Sharon! An education; good cook, don’t need money(which differs from wanting; it’s O.K. to want $$s, but one becomes circumspect when one says they Need $$s). {Note to all: my understanding is that there is no direct distinction in Asian languages between want and need. My wife & I had several discussions about this because she would say: “I need…..well; whatever” so out I would go and buy it. The she would ask why I got …whatever.. and I’d explain she had said she “needed” it. In the 1st couple years; let me tell you, my friends; I bought a lot of stuff that wasn’t really “needed”. It was just stuff she meant that she would want some day in the future. In English: we have two words with distinct meaning “want” and “need”; not so in Thai anyways: can anyone confirm this?)
Anyways:
You’re kinda limiting yourself though if you want a job with the TW gov’t.; that kinda limits you to staying in Taiwan, no?
So; Question 83: are you willing to re-locate? Might want to leave that door open in case some rich Fuehrer in Germany takes a shine to you.
And kids: if you want some; gotta hurry along: the biometric clock is ticking, there, kid! J
Anyways, Sharon:
That is much better description and tells a lot of great positive qualities about yourself.
I think you will see that a lot of members are already changed their minds about you.
Even I’m impressed (but; not enough for a divorce[LOL]).
See; you have a lot to offer. Those attributes are your “hook & bait”.
Now; you just have to find the right guy.
I have a story.
Many years ago in a galaxy far away…
Well, O.K., then ; how about back in ’91 in Oakland CA.
We had a discussion at work about how desperate people were to find dates/mates/whatever’s.
So; with that in mind; I put an advert in the Personals in an Oakland paper.
It read:
Short, hairless, humorless, morally bankrupt male chauvinist with an expanding beer belly
with troglodyte speech capabilities and no saving social graces seeks dynamic curvaceous,
intelligent, bikini contestant. Object: dining and dancing in the twilight zone.
Folks: I gotta tell ya: I had so many respondents I just couldn’t date them all!
Truly and really! There were so many desperate women in Oakland.
I had messages from San Jose all the way to Sacramento.
One was an ex-bunny in the San Francisco Playboy club.
One was 54 with a 56’ house boat on Lake Shasta.
One was younger than me by 4 years but; had already been divorced 3 times.
Another wanted to know how I could afford to take her out if I was morally bankrupt.
When I explained that it shouldn’t cost much for a “booty call”; she asked where she could pick me up. LOL!
A couple of them were leave-your-wife-beeeoooootiful and nice girls, too!
Anyways: I had a bet with the office staff and won the bet since they thought no-one would answer the advertisement.
Jeeze: my winnings paid for the dinner out with the 54-year-old with the 56’ houseboat.
Or; was she 56 with a 54’ houseboat? It’s all a blur, now………
Anyways: my point: watch out what you wish for: you might get it.
Sharon:
Try: “datesinasia” web site. I think you’d do well there.
Warm regards:
J.

Jerry, I know the above is still not good enough from your suggestion. But that's what's about me so far. Thank you for sharing your comments.
