First and foremost I'd like to be totally open and honest about the fact that I am currently incarcerated
But hopefully that doesn't discourage anyone from allowing me the chance and opportunity to get to know them
My mistakes and flaws are many but nevertheless still I strive to better myself and attempt to correct the errors of my ways
I consider myself to be a man of compassion, tolerance, understating, trustworthy, and ambition
I'm not here to judge anyone nor do I wish to be judged, I'm simply here seeking to find someone whom I can communicate and interact with on an authentic sincere and genuine level, someone in whom I can build develop and established a meaningful and profound friendship with and see what transpire from there
