In His Own Words
About him
I went to sea when I was young and would still like to go back to many of the countries that I visited. I left the Merchant Navy to get married and have a family. After 50 years of togetherness in love my wife passed away and it has taken me six years to even think of another woman. My personal life has a big hole which can only be filled, I believe by another woman. I miss the day and night company of loving and caressing another.
We loved going off for short breaks in my sports car, weather permitting, and days away for good food and drinks and visiting ancient monuments and other such cultural icons.
My outlook on life is to enjoy it as much as I can.
I love working on my sports car to keep it in good condition. My day car, being a Mercedes is too complex but also nice for longer journeys. I like kids and most animals, but for this exercise I am not looking for long walks in fields with dogs or riding horses. I have my own children and a number of grandchildren who are all grown up and most have partners, so I do not wish to start another family of grandchildren
I like to be out and about.
I have already answered your suggestions on all points except how would my friends describe my personality. I don't really know. Most of my close friends have passed away at comparatively early ages in the past 2 or 3 years. I would guess they would see me as a helpful person. They were mostly in various financial situations while I was in Industry. I often had to help them do practical functions.
About his ideal match
I am looking for someone to share my interests and to enjoy being with me, especially to love and fulfil my life as I have outlined above. I do not want a platonic relationship or an additional friend, I wish to live a life of joy with a receptive woman. Sexual activity is not essential but would be a bonus. No single rooms or beds when we go away together.
I had a very serious road accident 30 years ago which smashed my pelvis and hip joint. This past 3 years it has come back to haunt me and I have had two major operations (3 months each) in an attempt to put it right. Because of this my physical
activities are limited. I cannot take long walks in the country nor can I play golf any longer. I hope that this will improve in time. According to my consultant yesterday he expects a fair bit of improvement yet to come.
If you can put up with all of the above you could be my girl.
Again I have answered most of your suggestions. I would certainly prefer a partner to share in what I am looking for with a willingness to have the same relationship. Affection is essential.
I would to have a relationship of wishing to be with each other, and while I like kids and animals I don't wish to spend my evenings sitting with another's grandchildren, or mine, or kissing and cuddling their pets. That has to be reserved for us.I would love to go on holiday for long weekends in my car seeing the country and any gardens or interesting sites, or to go on a river cruise with each other for company.
A deal breaker is unfortunately a heavy smoker, or an abstainer someone who wants me to be part of their family of kids and pets. I shan't expect anyone I like to wish them to be part of my family circle. This arrangement is for us and any friends we may wish to be part of our circle.
I do not exclude meeting respective families, but not being part of them.
I wish us to spend as much time as we can together, doing what we wish to do.
