I am very nice guy, friendly, loving, affectionate, honest, trustworthy, responsible and supportive of others. I'm told that I tend to look serious a lot of the time but I have a great sense of humour and love more than anything else to have a good laugh with my friends. I have a great full time job as a professional truck driver in the waste management division for the City of Toronto. I was born in Canada but have dual citizenship as my Dad was an American. My Mom and my brother (along with his wife) all live near my home in downtown Toronto. My father passed away when I was 25 years old. I have no children now but would love to someday build a family with someone special. Something you should know about me but wouldn't be able to tell from just reading my profile... I am hard of hearing and have difficulty at times communicating clearly over the phone (and, at times, over email). I wear a hearing aid in one ear and have a cochlear implant on the other. The combination of these devices allows me to communicate well when meeting with people in person. The cochlear implant (which I have only had for two years) is helping me develop my vocabulary each and every month at this stage (as there are many words that I was not able to hear properly or understand until I had that device). The kind of person who would be interested in me could see beyond these challenges and see completely the warm-hearted and fun-loving person that I am.

... A strong woman with a big heart who has many of the same characteristics as my own (as listed above) and who is aiming for the same things as I am in her future. I believe that the first step should be easy - build a good friendship, with no pressure, then see where things go from there.
