In His Own Words
About him
Friends describe me as an outgoing, sociable and friendly man. Honest, loving, reliable, helpful and generally very supportive. Fun to be with and has a good sense of humour.
My children tell me that I am the best dad and am always there for them when seeking guidance and wisdom.
Always up for a challenge although not too keen on heights. Ok with flying though.
I play village cricket, captain a skittles team and a quiz team and have started playing badminton again after an injury induced layoff. I am quite competitive apparently though not in an arrogant way. I am not overly keen on people who look down on you or believe themselves to be of a higher status or better than you. A famous sketch with Ronnie Corbett, Ronnie Barker and John Cleese comes to mind.
I am an animal lover. Used to own a gorgeous Yorkshire Terrier and may consider owning another dog as they make great companions. For now though my priority is finding a companion of the human kind, for the long term and marriage if the chemistry is right. If not then I would be content with friendship on social media or for odd visits to the local coffee house etc. But I would not give up too easily if I think a deeper relationship is achievable.
I like to cook and will have a go at most culinary projects.
I have traveled and want to again, however it would be much more enjoyable to share the experience. I like going to the theatre and have done a few theatre weekend breaks in London. Great fun.
I would like to think I have an optimistic outlook on life. It has taken a few severe knocks recently. But if we should meet and click then maybe the future will be filled with optimism and love for the two of us.
About his ideal match
My ideal match would have similar or compatible core values as myself. Over the last 35 years I have learnt to know and accept that people in a relationship should be allowed to retain their individuality. To make the relationship work there needs to be shared interests that bind us together. And a willingness to support each other in our individual endeavours.
A number of people make use of the term ‘judgmental’ when describing a negative attribute. It is wrong to be judgmental or critical in an assessment of another person or someone with whom you are striving to build a relationship. We are all who we are and in my mind the success of a relationship comes down to accepting differences and building upon the shared positives.
As I have said above, I am open to new challenges. And a new relationship will be full of new challenges for both of us. Both frightening and exciting in equal measures.
