In His Own Words
About him
Having actually asked my friends, they apparently see me a warm, sensitive, intelligent with an outgoing personality.
I regard loyalty and being caring, be it as a friend or should something more result, as a cornerstone of my life.
I'm creative - worked 40 years in Marketing, am a Master Handloom Weaver, keen gardener, ambitious cook, love walking & cycling and classic film. Host: dinners/suppers with friends, croquet, picnics. Am a writer/researcher - history/genealogy.
Equally at home relaxing by my wood burner or out exploring a stately home or the open countryside of the Dales.
Above all, whilst I love life and live it to the full, it would be wonderful to make more friends but especially to have someone to share all that life has to offer!
About his ideal match
In terms of a relationship ideally you:
- want to enjoy life and its possibilities with someone.
- single/looking for more than a casual hook-up
- happy living separately but sharing time in each others spaces.
- willing and able to be open and honest and discuss your feelings to the extent of investing in a friendship/relationship.
Deal breakers are:
- not willing to be monogamous.
- not being willing to take the time to get to know each other.
