Hi. Folks describe me as an introvert and somewhat shy. I have a good sense of humor. It takes me a long time to make a friend, but once I make a friend, the friendship lasts. I am married for 51 years, and have one best friend for about 25 years. I'd like to email for awhile before I speak on the phone. I'm a researcher and author. I've written several books and articles in peer reviewed journals.
