In His Own Words
About him
I'll add more later once I've had a think! But essentially, I'm a divorced Englishman, still working in the UK Government sector and managing a team of great people and doing work I enjoy. Retirement looms, but I'm in no rush as work grants a certain meaning, a purpose, especially when single.
I would be great to find a compatible lady to live the golden years with. Someone who enjoys conversation, good dining at the many country pubs around Peterborough. Ideally, you will like the idea of maybe doing some of the UK long distance walks, something I've been planning for a while (If you have any of the Wainwright books, you'll know what I mean)
My life now is more comfortable than ever, and I could just bimble along like this forever, however, there is a big world to see out there, and I'd like to settle down with someone lovely with whom to explore the UK and abroad together.
I’ve been on this site a couple of months now, and have come to realise that I need someone geographically close; long distance relationships are not for me. So, while there are many gorgeous women here, I’m trying to be sensible with regards to distance. Also, I’m only seeking a somewhat older lady, so will not make the mistake of thinking that I have anything to offer a younger woman.
Finally, if I don’t respond to you, it’s simply that I do not feel we are a match and want to avoid wasting anyone’s time - we are all getting older and I’m focusing on finding the ‘right’ lady for me.
About his ideal match
Someone mature, probably in her sixties (I'm not interested in someone significantly younger than me). An elegant, refined older lady who might enjoy dinner dates, and evenings out. You will be independently minded, not in need, but like me, wish to find new friends.
Someone who does not seek conflict; I cannot remember the last time I fell out or had an argument with anyone, and I’d be very compatible with a similarly relaxed partner.
I'm completely open to the idea of finding that ideal person to settle with, an 'other half' if you like.
