A few years past divorce, and the 2 children are adults, it - unconventionally for me - sounds like a good idea to go back to chasing "the one" :) The chaser: Though I'm Syrian by origin, I've been in the US for over 3 decades, and I'm as American as apple pie. I'm well educated with multiple degrees; I have a good job and I write scientific papers. My personality type is INTJ. That's a hardwired thing. I.e., I cannot (and don't want to) change it. Please check INTJ online, in case some aspect of it doesn't click well with you. On faith: born as Sunny Muslim, and like most humans, took my religion for granted. The Syrian conflict made me dig deep into religion, for 2 years, hearing all parties and reading dozens of books. Then, painfully, finding out it's not for me! As I happen to have other answers to the existential questions, I moved on despite the disappointment. I play, and even compose music, and I have had an eye for photography since youth. I'm kindhearted and often pay it forward. About the relationship: I think there's a code to crack about relationships. If you and I don't crack it, and just hook up based on looks, social ranking and past relationships' lessons-learned, we will end up - again, maybe indefinitely - where you and I are now here for :( So, I hope you're here as a chaser too, not relying on being a chasee. And I hope you're up for a very interesting - if not mind-bending - chat on happiness, love and what is life about. It will be worth it :)
