Some words about the author

It's usual on Web sites managed by a « real guy », to introduce the owner, - the reason of this small page.
We are living near Brussels, Belgium; my wife is a painter and former math teacher; I'm a retired dentist. We have two children and three grandchildren.
Our family is somewhat dispersed however, as our daughter, a Ph.D. anthropologist, lives with her husband, a local artist and their little girl on Easter Island, - where she has opened... a nice belgian
restaurant.
Our son, a M.E. Economist, lives with his wife and their children in Luxemburg.

After 35 years working as a dentist in my own dental health care center in Brussels, I retired to get involved in another captivating domain: the couple relationship. At the same period, it was also time for me to retire from the Army. (I served as reserve Lt.-Col. in the Medical Service.)
B.T.W., as my first language is French, you'll understand why my English asks some indulgence...
Since the beginning, through my daily contacts with my patients, assistant practitioners and co-workers, I became really interested in relationship problems: everyday, I was hearing my patients (when they might speak) and other people around me speaking about their relationship concerns - just seeking to be listened to.
You have to know indeed that in order to provide a patient with efficient - and painless - dental treatment, you need first to establish a friendly and trustful relationship with them. At least, it's my personal opinion. Hence you want to listen to them and talk with them with just an open mind.
After several complementary trainings (and also by implementing what I had learnt from my personal mistakes...), I've gradually realized that there are nearly always the same categories of problems out there and that I might help people to find solutions to them.
On my retirement, several friends and acquaintances urged me to 'write something' about all these good contacts I have been fortunate to have. And so, a bunch of suggestions was reunited in the 'program' « 70 Simple Ways to Boooost Your Love Life »...***
Since then, thanks to the magic of the Internet, contacts did multiply world-wide: thousands of readers soon made me the pleasure to grant me their confidence. A large number among them are even sending me hundreds of e-mails describing their own real-life situation, asking what I would do in their place. They're generally surprised by the simplicity and efficiency of the replies.
They probably don't realize that for retired people, feeling helpful is a genuine present!
P.S. As every grand-dad in my place, I can't resist:
as a wink, here are our three "treasures"!)
