In His Own Words
About him
I am an academic in strategy, currently working with a politics department in the north-east. Working on my first book.
I have many interests; history (including natural history), philosophy, epic poetry, adventure literature, cinema and much else. I used to be a bit more active in the gym, martial arts, hiking and camping and it would be nice to get back into some of those things, perhaps with someone I meet here. I very much enjoy walking the dogs in the countryside.
I like music, of course; I was at Bloodstock in 2019 but these days I'm more at home with Boccherini.
I am reasonably well-travelled and eager to get to certain other places around England and the wider world.
Traditional sort of chap.
About his ideal match
A best friend who is honest; smart; similar interests, values; and outlook on life, and a tolerance of my idiosyncrasies.
What His Friends Say
Cassidy said...
James is truly one of the best people I know, and that's not just an exaggeration or sweeping generality. He is passionate, intelligent, and also has a great heart. He is fiercely loyal and has an open-mind. He knows how to make someone feel appreciated and heard. He enjoys the simple things in life: a drink on a patio, listening to music, watching movies, but is also willing to try new things and is open to different activities, especially if it is important to his partner. James is a great conversationalist-not only does he have a wide range of interests, but he is a great listener. If something is important to you, he will listen and engage and want to learn more about it. James is level-headed, a great travel partner, an animal lover, and most importantly someone who treats women with respect and values what is important to them. He is one of my best friends and truly, anyone who dates him would be incredibly lucky to have him in their life.
