My passions and interests drive me, but do not control me. I love living abroad for long periods of time so I can learn about other cultures and absorb the better parts of each culture into my personality and view of the world. Human behavior and psychology fascinates me and this supports my life goal of encouraging people. I suppose it is my gift. I also adore women, as they are the most fascinating of all creation. More than anything I love my children and i will be happy to tell you about them when we write. Since you are a woman, i will tell you how other women have described me, but I hope you will not think of me as narcissistic, for these are the observations of others: thoughtful, passionate, big hearted, intellectual, witty, wise, classy, interesting to talk to, making others feel calm, making women feel young, and that I know the way to a woman's heart. I have worked hard on improving myself since the divorce, so I hope these traits are true in me. As for myself, I know that i work hard toward my goals and that i achieve my goals even if there are reversals along the way. I am an optimist by nature, but my feet are on the ground and my head is not in the clouds as it was in my younger days. I am a loyal and faithful friend and partner. I am ageless. Or put another way, I am every age I've ever been. The age span of my close friends rages from 22 to 55. Judging from my appearance and style of life, many people assume I am in my late 30's or early 40's. I enjoy learning, reading, exploring nature, travel, conversation, going on dates, and the close company of a special lady. I lived in Ukraine for one year, and now the women in my country don't compare very favorably. I am spoiled! That is why I am here introducing myself to you. Oh, and I adore cherry pie, but I don't have the talent to make it 🙄

More than anything i want to be married in a match made in heaven. I was married before but I was very young and I did not have the maturity to make a good choice. I hope to meet an emotionally and mentally healthy lady with many other good qualities that I will add later. I hope she will have her own children already (if she wants children) I love children and I work with them in my career as therapist, but I have chosen not to make any new babies. I have five children who are already adults. Surprise! We have great relations with each other and are like a tribe. My daughters date older men and they suggested to me that I would find a better fit with a younger lady. So I have the option to date any age. For me, it is more about the person than the age. To be continued .... 😉
