DANCERYK, 69
I consider myself successful, professionally at least, with a good education (Ph.D.) and a great job (university professor) that I love. All my four children are happily married with children of their own and I don’t have any pets anymore, which gives me enough freedom to enjoy life, even while holding a full time job.
I like the simple things in life. On a nice day, I prefer a hike or a walk by the lake rather than a day at the mall. And I much better prefer a night at a friendly ballroom dance studio rather than a visit to the bar. In fact, dancing has been my passion in the last year or two. I also like to travel as time permits, especially international travel or an occasional cruise. I have lived abroad in at least four other than the US countries. I have traveled extensively all over Europe, India, Egypt, Thailand (my favorite), Malaysia, Singapore, Costa Rica, Mexico, and more. My next travel will be to Europe, in the summer.
I am very health conscious. Exercise, eat well, have fun and I prefer that before a new relationship evolves into being intimate and without protection, both partners get tested (and pass the test). Transmitting a bug or whatever to a partner is not an act of love.
