In Her Own Words
About her
Generally I look on the bright side of things and I'm lucky not to have any health problems. I'm often happy doing my own thing but I like company as well, though I'm happier in small groups. I like to explore new places at home and abroad, eat new food, meet fresh faces and people watch - but I'm a tactile person and I miss having someone to share these pleasures.
I hope my friends would say that I'm considerate, trustworthy, tolerant, liberal-minded, good company and a good friend. I enjoy reading, films, theatre, concerts and walking. I paint a bit in acrylic and oils and recently I've started learning to play a small harp. Although I'll never play in public, I enjoy the challenge of learning something new and my concentration has certainly improved. I still work voluntarily as a counsellor. I enjoy my garden but more as a spectator than an active participant! A shady spot, a good book, a glass at hand .......
About her ideal match
I would like to meet someone who shared some of the same interests and who would like to enjoy activities together and holidays and travel. They will be considerate, have a positive outlook and enjoy new experiences. However, if the chemistry, that indefinable sense of attraction, is missing the relationship won't work no matter how many things one has in common.
