In Her Own Words
About her
I am a well- educated, well travelled, well spoken and sophisticated yummy mummy. I have now been a single mum for 7 years and have prioritised my children's emotional well-being. My 2 boys will be going off to boarding school soon giving me more time to do things for myself. Over the last 7 years I have worked, danced, partied, karaoked and gone wild with my friends. I certainly intend to continue to "faire la fete" but now it is time to throw caution to the wind and rediscover the excitement and fun of young innocent love. The difference this time is that we are blessed with experience, wisdom and the knowledge of what we need and what we are able to give.
My friends say I am caring, empathetic, spiritual, wise and an old soul . I would love to find someone to laugh with (uncontrollably), to cuddle, kiss and more. And as much as I like to think I am pretty cool and feisty, I just don't seem to be able to seperate feelings from sex, so I guess I am an old-fashioned girl who is not looking for a charming and witty player but a charming and witty companion. So cazanovas need not apply.
I would love to meet someone who is tender but also able to put me in my place...not that it is often necessary. Singing, dancing, movies, concerts, the occasional opera, fine dining and of course vino are the ways to my heart...but please not all at the same time!
The real path to my happiness is being loved and appreciated by the person that I love and expressing that every day.
About her ideal match
Looking for a man with humour, intellect, a positive attitude to life, drive and a good role model for my children. Somebody who can introduce me to new horizons in life, a chameleon who is just as happy in black tie as he is in muddy boots, as I am.
Though my friends think I'm sweet, secretly I know that I am also very together and determined so looking for a man who appreciates that.
