About her
Hi - a bit about me:
I’m young at heart (people tell me I look younger than my years), have a sunny disposition, positive energy, gsoh, take good care of myself, healthy and fairly fit.
I’m retired from a rewarding career. My retirement
didn’t have the best start (long story - can say more if we chat) and that’s left a big heart-shaped space in my life. I’d now like to meet that special guy to do the things I hoped to do in retirement as a couple.
I have strong family values and a wide circle of friends but missing the companionship, cuddles, affection, the glow that radiates from having a loving partner - that comes from doing things together or just doing nothing at all - just being…
I like a balance between home life (we all need our place to be) however I have places I’d still like to go - abroad and in the UK. I like the spontaneity of “it’s a great day to … “ and while I can go on holiday with my girlfriends - I’m not going to be holding hands with them while watching the sunset - or feel the thrill of that first magical kiss that marks the start of our beginning.
I have lots of interests / things I like doing - a few are:
Cycling - love cycling Warwickshires country lanes, short country walks, chess, I used to play a musical instrument as a child (I know it was a long time ago - but the notes haven’t changed) and I’m teaching myself to play the piano keyboard, have a book to translate, concerts, music / dancing (especially Motown), theatre, canasta, beginner in golf, cooking, baking. eating in / out, quizzes (we don’t win but we like going) wine tasting, regular gym goer (it’s boring but got to be done), pilates - just started Italian classes.
I think it’s good to have shared interests and separate ones too - we don’t have to climb mountains together to make good music - and dancing is best done on level ground.
It would be great to find lasting romance to share our future selves. I’d love to hear from you, if you think you’re the guy to add sparkle to my life and me to yours.
About her ideal match
I’m looking for the right guy who’ll compliment my life - not make it. Attraction is important - but the chemistry that creates the draw to each other comes from compatibility, a healthy sense of presence in each others lives and developing our own language / nuances that shape who we are together - we always remember how someone makes us feel - that’s key …
A guy who is:
Articulate, has emotional intelligence, calm and level-headed, kind, compassionate, thoughtful, reliable, honest, loyal, sense of humour (got to laugh together) and takes pride in his appearance - takes good care of himself.
The start: small beginnings - a small spark (let’s be realistic) fireworks at our age is unlikely. Initially liking each other - with enough curiosity to find out more about each other and see what develops - hopefully leading to a loving long-term relationship (not looking for marriage) where we have each others backs and are each others number 1’s in love.
Preferably living local (within easy drive) due to logistics for meeting up and getting to know each other, though if the sparks there … the spark is there no matter how far the distance - you don’t have to be present to have presence.
If I’m not for you - I wish you the very best in your search. Keep going - after all that’s why we’re on here.
