In Her Own Words
About her
I am a very independent lady of mature years, very happy with my own company, but occasionally I would like to go places and do things that are best enjoyed with someone else.
After a long happy marriage, I am looking for someone, with whom I could experience the comfortable companionship that is lacking in my life. If you are a widower, you will know exactly what I mean. We have friends and family, but not someone who makes life extra special. I miss having someone to go places with, weekends away, dinners in or out, sitting in the garden on a summer’s night or cold brisk walks in the winter. So if you live close enough for us to be able to do these things on an impulse, and if it appeals to you, let me hear from you.
Please don't take some of the criteria as gospel, some questions are hard to answer given the choices. Of course I am open to new experiences, this follows naturally if you find a soul mate. Enjoying a glass of red used to be one of my pleasures, drinking on my own is not !
ADDENDUM ! Since writing my profile, I feel some things have happened, which makes me want to qualify a few statements.
Over the last year or so, some age related conditions have crept in, which have caused me to limit my expectations. I did a stupid thing in the garden and that resulted in some fractured vertebra, still causing pain. My leisure is now mostly effortless stuff, aimed at keeping the brain active, but I do what I can to keep the rest of me going !
This doesn’t mean I’m on the scrapheap, far from it, but I’m honest enough to admit, that I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the many seemingly superhuman elderly gentlemen on this site. Hiking six miles before breakfast and travelling round the world is not my bag, so recent approaches have met with an honest, thank you, but no thanks.
About her ideal match
My ideal match would be an educated gentleman, who has a wicked sense of humour. You would be happy with your own company, not needy, with lots of things going on in your own life. Your interests would include gardening, books, classical music, walks, conversation, art galleries, all the usual stuff. You would be a practical person, who can turn your hand to anything and know your way round a set of tools. When you fancied a good laugh and pleasant company, you would think of me!
So if you are clean shaven and sound in wind and limb, apart from the usual age related aches and pains, it might just be you, and I’m always happy to receive one liners
