I am very honest. If you ask a question, you get an answer. However, be mindful you may not always like an honest answer. I am very outdoors orientated, and a big kid at heart. I do cosplay and am a real nerd also. I am not a man's man, I do not like noise and bluster, but prefer quiet chat and laughing. I love to travel and have cultural experiences. I enjoy cooking and like to show of my skills in the kitchen :) I am a government employee with job security and a love for the outdoors. Currently, I am a park ranger but work within different government departments doing workplace health and safety. Sorry but I am still sorting out my chat apps and life in general, so cannot commit huge amounts of time chatting. So to help with full disclosure and reduce the need to ask about my life story I will share it here and if you read my profile you can decide if I am a good match or not. So here goes I am 53 and currently a park ranger, on secondment to Queensland Health as a safety advisor in the coming months. I have worked across a lot of industries and careers during my life. Therefore I am multi-skilled and can do most roles, so never have trouble finding work or getting promotions. I was born in a small country town and spent most of my youth doing outdoor activities and sports. I was fairly athletic and a good sportsperson at school; and although smart, I was a lazy student. Only later in life did I take an interest in studies and have one advanced diploma, 3 diplomas and currently studying for another diploma. I am the eldest of three children, but no longer have a father or brother who died from cancer. My mother and sister are alive and well, but we are not close these days. I have a 23-year-old son in my first marriage, but we are not close anymore :(. I have an adopted niece (wife's niece) to my current marriage. And she is like a daughter to me :) First marriage ended, due to my wife cheating with a work colleague. We no longer keep in contact, and she has long remarried and moved on. The second marriage is pending a divorce. I still care about her and my niece, and they are still living with me until my niece goes to university next year. My wife who is Chinese is now an accountant and can move on when the divorce is finally processed. But I hope you understand that I am still in a state of flux with my pending divorce, while still living in the same house. It makes things hard, so I am chatting and meeting people in the hope that once she moves out next year, and god willing I can travel despite covid restrictions, that I may want to meet someone special, OR AT LEAST MAKE A FRIEND OR TWO. :) Please do not consider me a player, but understand I am chatting to many people and want to be sure of myself before emotionally committing to anyone. I can do friendships, even if things never develop romantically :D Why the divorce? Well, the problem is that I work away a lot, and in an effort to get my attention my wife often has dramas and tests the relationship. I get frustrated with this childish behavior and become aggressively indifferent, which does not help either of us. We have tried counseling, but keep repeating the same mistakes, so the marriage is no longer working. Note that I also encourage her to have her own friends, interests, hobbies, and studies; but in doing this I often neglect to give her attention :(. We are still OK as friends and as a family, but we are wanting to move on with our lives. I can be sociable, but am an introvert. So I need some alone time to recharge my batteries now and then. :) I hope this helps, evaluate the type of person I am :)
