Dale Frank, Lyle, kind, considerate, self aware. I'm not into the "scene". I work in aged care with dementia. I enjoy spending time outdoors but it's not much fun on your own. Kayaking or hiking anyone? I'm in fairly good physical shape and don't look my 72yo age (so I've been told ) I like being around people but can be initially shy. I love my home garden vegetables. I love to travel, particularly Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Bali and India. I love my food too. Thai, Vietnamese, Indian. I love other cultures and languages even though I cannot speak another. I love a good film if it has subtitles. What's missing? A young good man hug, someone to curl up with to watch that good movie or go out to dinner with. If sex is your main focus then I am the wrong guy. I'm not saying sex is not important but I am looking for a relationship. If you are looking for someone who is genuine, honest, open and caring then contact me. Ideal Partners are genuine, straight acting guy, no pretense and no head games and under 22., 2020, Pigments in easycast resin, epoxyglass on perspex, 200 x 200 cm
