Playful heart & soul. V. handsome WM, 40 yo, 6′2″, 170#, blk, blu, prefers natural environs to city, meditate, creative, hands on of all kinds! RU

30–60, WM w/variety of life experiences? Let’s grow!

I responded to this Advocate ad and received a form letter. The photos of Chaz that fell from the envelope were more than enough incentive to get through the misspellings. “Dear Peter” was handwritten at the top.

I’m a licensed personal trainer working in Boston 4 days a week and a 5th here in the burbs. I have a quiet apartment on 25 acres boardering state land. I like to think I’m on the Appilaccian Trail! I find a natural environment almost a necessaty since I work in the competative hubbub. Ive high profile cliants and a reasonable income, saving for my dream home in the pines. I long for a lover whose heart also soars in wild places. For 8 years I was at a yoga center in Maine. They required staff to be celibit the first four years, short of masterbation. This was to help focus on personal growth outside of intimit sexual relationships. Unfortunately the head guru irrupted in a scandal with his wife and girlfriends (three), and he had to leave. Those years still hold great satisfaction for me. I didn’t succeede in avoiding sex totally.

Health and consious living are it for me. Weightlifting came into my life when I was 16. I left the yoga center and went to Florida for personal trainer training. My diet now is very strict, no red meat.

Ive found that living a truely responsible life starts with realizing that my emotions are my doing and I’m the first recipiant of their pain or joy, although I’m dealing with issues of past deep shaming and abuse.

Again I glanced at the photos and nearly swooned.

I was sexually abused at ages 5 and 6 by my 18 yr old cousin. Ive bailed out of possible relationships when I got affraid. Now, I can communicate the fear and build more self trust.

On a lighter side, I’m deeply affectionate and satisfied by holding, touching, and loving. I’m recently HIV retested. I don’t tend to have casual sex, but I have a few times and its empty for me.

I don’t read a lot, but I like spiritually oriented books. Hiking with dog friends is great fun. Basically anything physical draws my attention. So, naturally I was drawn to body building.

Well, this was fun putting together a “little” introduction!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but its my hope to give depth to our connection from the start!!!!

Sincerely, Chaz

PS. Ive included a couple pictures.

They were not skin shots. He stared goofy-eyed at the camera; he hugged a large dog in another. True, the third featured Chaz in a loose tank top that nev-ertheless indicated a perfect-ten David and not a Sumo wrestler. Chaz’s black hair and intensely blue eyes made him strikingly similar to Barry, but he had a body.
