I'm on this site in order to keep a promise I made my late wife. This was major part our talk's...
Murlin,I want you go find yourself another lady. No excuses. Your dependable, your honest, you have manners, an you keep your word. You never raised hand in anger nor did you ever hit me, unlike others. You knew when I was down an you were there, when I needed a hug, you were there. When I need company you were there, an if I needed space you allowed me time think. You tell people you have no heart, but thats not true. I've seen you with, Renny who lost hoofs frost bite how you fought save her an did. An then there was Smokie with gun shot, an look at Nadia. If not treatments she had lost her leg. Look at Ti, everyone said just shoot her an you wouldnt allow it, even knowin she may never be rode again. An you stood by me threw all the cancer treatments no matter where they took me. You have a heart, now you need find, Love again, an mend it. You have a way look at things try an make it funny and get me to laugh an not hurt so bad. 17 years, an I was never bored. You been a good husband and a good friend, I could never asked for more. With you, when you wrap you arms around me I felt safe, safer than I did with my "X" who was a cop.
But you must promise me...
Soo, I'm here to fill a promise I made..Tried a few times but guess the way she stated it is bout closest can come say what I need said.
About the one I'm looking for...
I have this little empty spot by my side, I like find a little lady to fill. One who likes hold hands, kiss, hug. One who likes talk. One I can show an share things with. One who likes share of herself. One who likes be surprised. One who likes to laugh. One who can find happiness in settin at table drinkin cup coffee an watchin sunrise&sunset with partner.
I'd just like to add...
If you are lookin for a ,retired, 9-5 type, I was never one of those, so for me jeans an stetson hat are normal wear. So if you have a problem with that then move on, sorry I wasted your time.
But if you are lookin for, a man, who will, love you, respect you, honor you, stand beside you no matter what gets thrown at us? Look no futhur.
I say what I think, an stand by what I say.
I belive in, Honor, Dignity, Pride.
Oh yea, Squawman? That was ment as a slap in my face from my grandfather. Can you tell, it failed? LOL.
I'm proud of who I am, where I came from, an the man I have become.
Im stubborn an hard headed, but not stupid, I will ask for help if I know I will need it.
