i have 11 years total under my belt as a vet. national guard & army, both as a reservist. i am a very youthful 55 yornseeking intelligence, fun, gentlemen in the old school sense. open doors, drop me off as you go park. that kind of thing.everything must begin as friends. it's the best foundation for anything. i embrace all of the different sides of myself because being one dimensional is too boring.my sons are both men, now. they both are in their 30's. my grandson is 14. i stay fit and have all of my life and commit to always be this way. yes you must look like you care about your body, too. i am fit - i seek fit.i'm a part of the #metoo movement. but i have overcome the ptsd for the most part. i'm still sane. the thing is, i prefer gents and well, i really do now because i need to feel like one is my protector. just like a man wants to protect his woman. i'm honest, loyal and very much an empath.i will read your essay before i reply. well, i will if it shows that you cared enough to have read mine
