Orthodox conversion. I’m so grateful to God. I am observant, but still learning. I do my best, I’m somewhere between modern Orthodox and Conservative. Lifelong vegetarian. Hashem has tested me beyond what I ever imagined, it has only strengthened my belief and conviction. Never been married, have no children. Son of an ordained Seventh-Day Adventist minister. I will admit prior to my conversion in 2007 I was an absolute sinful hedonist. My heart has been shredded many times, but I’ve healed to the point where I want love in my life again. Even though I’m 62 my relationship maturity is not that mature or experienced. Because of that I can’t relate to a woman who is roughly my age, with a bunch of kids, or a grandmother. At the same time a woman much younger than me would I’m sure drive me half insane. Hashem has humbled me in many ways, and in the greater scheme of things I’m very thankful or I would have died a number of years ago. I can not change my past, and I’m scarred from my past crazy life in a number of ways, I’m learning to love and more than anything I want a woman I can share life with. My parents have been married for over 60 years, they have something beautiful I wish I had. It’s a blessing in some ways that I’ve never been married in that had I gotten married prior to my conversion I would have married a gentile and most likely I would never have considered conversion to Judaism. If I never marry I’m still thankful to God for leading me down a path to conversion, my soul has been saved, so how can I possibly be overly disappointed if I never get married. “The heart is a lonely hunter” and I’m so tired of hunting. I want to eventually move to Israel, and I want so much to learn Hebrew. If I find love in Israel I would move there with not a second thought. Most of my career I’ve been a commercial real estate broker specializing in the sale of skilled nursing homes. I have also owned a skilled nursing home and a memory care facility. During that time I also worked for a NYSE nursing home company as Director of Acquisitions and Development. At that time we were the second largest operator in the United States with over 500 facilities. I also worked for Zev Karkomi who at that time was the largest private investor in skilled nursing facilities in the U.S. During those years I made more money than I thought I’d ever make and looking back I was so arrogant, selfish, and I lead a sinful life. Since converting Hashem has stripped me of almost everything I ever earned. So in some ways I’m starting over. I have a new paradigm of the world. I have started a new company that once it’s underway I’ll be able to move anywhere I want, that might be possible within the next year, perhaps sooner. If I told you all that I’ve had to contend with and the challenges God has put me through you might be shocked that I’m still alive, a number of my friends are confused how I’m still alive. If you believe that a crystal is more interesting to observe once it’s been dropped and shattered then you might better understand and appreciate me. It would be great if you were financially independent, but it’s not a requirement, but I would certainly hope that you are at least financially responsible. I’ve heard that Israeli women are very strong willed. I would welcome that in my life. However, I don’t need or want someone bossy, full of diva drama, selfish, short sighted, etc. More than anything I want a woman I can respect, learn to love, and committed to a peaceful loving environment. The longest relationship I’ve ever had with a woman has been around 2.5 years. I know that doesn’t reflect well, but all that time I was involved with crazy gentile women. My priorities have changed entirely. Be beautiful inside first. My heart is open, I’m ready to be vulnerable and committed with love. Go easy with me I’m still a little nervous and fragile about trusting women in general. I’m ready to love, you be too.
