Maxi, 61 - Sandton

I was born on a very hot day. As it happened, my father was home with a horrible migraine while my mom was popping me out into the world. I was born two weeks late. It was a sign of things to come: I gave my father quite a few headaches over the following years and as far as lateness goes, I'm still trying to get somewhere on time for once in my life.

I grew up on Long Island, in a typical Long Island suburb. Note that all Long Islanders live 'on the island'; it's one of those local phrases, of which there are many. In any event, though I had what I would consider a typical 1970's childhood with BB guns, dirt bikes, and bows and arrows, there were some more interesting times involving several colorful members of the extended family, which I won't get into here. Suffice it to say that sometimes things could be a little surreal. My father was born in Germany and moved here when he was a young man; my grandfather worked for an airline and used to visit us when he was here on business, which was always an exciting treat. My mom's family is Italian in heritage, so between the two backgrounds, I grew up exposed to a lot of tasty food.

A woman (48 - 69)

I am definitely an extrovert... I try to get along with everyone. I'm happy go lucky, loud and at time obnoixous. I'm always trying to make people laugh..or at least smile. Mainly because that keeps me smiling... when I'm depressed... So i would love to meet a woman that can love,laugh and play the way i do
