In His Own Words
About him
Headline says it all really. I'm a retired professional man unwilling to slip into the role of couch potato and therefore looking for intellectual and romantic stimulation. While the former seems attainable, the latter seems infinitely more difficult to achieve. Married but living apart.
Friends say that I'm friendly, considerate, tender, courteous, romantic, compassionate and good company, so it could be worse. I'd add that I'm a glass half full type of person and can be be quite shy, though the same friends say it doesn't show as I'm usually prepared to take the lead.
About his ideal match
I don't really have any ideal match - but a lady who's positive about life and with a great sense of humour would be a great start!
