Hi, Its Richard, those photos of you are great pictures, quite beautiful and you have wonderful eyes. I have attached a phonto of myself.A bit about myself. My girlfriend (she is Shanghainese - Chinese) who has lived in the United States for 11 years and I moved to Shanghai in November and will be here one year. I work for IBM and travel quite a lot.....around 70% right now but it should be lower normally (50%). Its just busy getting everything started.I have just started in January to learn Chinese (Mandarin). It should be easy as I can speak some Cantonese (Gwan Dong Hwa). I am old but not old at the same time. Most of my friends are 30-40 years old. Im really active, at home I snow ski, kayak in the river, rock climb, snowshoe, jump out of airplanes (with a parachute of course) and exercise every day. But my body is 60 years old... everyone who knows me is always so surprised when they find out the numbers. Jing my G/F is 32; I have a daughter who lives in the United States and has a husband and two children.I'm not good for a boyfriend as I have a committed relationship but I could be good as a friend to chat with. During the day its often hard for me to respond to messages right away if I am teaching a class or in a meeting (and there are lots of those meetings for work).You take care-Rich>From: man_1314

嗨，我是richard.你的照片都好漂亮，特别是你美丽的眼睛。我还附上了我的照片。再聊一点我自己吧，我女朋友（她是上海人。）他在美国住了11年了，我在11月时搬到上海，也会在这里住上一年。我在IBM上班，也常常出国/差，现在大概70%的时间，不过应该是在50%。刚开始都是比较忙的。从1月开始，我才开始学国语，不过我还有点广东话底子。我人老，但是心不老。我朋友大概都在30--40岁之间。我常做运动，在家我滑雪，在湖里，爬山，走雪（老外的一种运动。），跳伞（当然，我还戴上降落伞。）和每天的运动。不过我已经60岁了当大家知道我这个年龄的时候，都被我吓了一跳。静，我女友32岁了。我女儿也住在美国和她的老公和孩子。我不是一个好的男友去维持我们之间的关系，不过我却是个好的聊友。在白天的时候，如果我在教学，或在会议当中，我很难马上回复你的讯息（而且我的工作有好多的会议。）保重---rich
