In His Own Words

About him

Years rush by, too fast, but for me, it is never too late to make a new start, meet a special lady, begin a new friendship, and, as the song goes, 'Lets fall in love', and begin an enduring romantic and loving relationship.

Let's have fun doing things, going places, and so on, together, while being happy when we’re hanging around together doing nothing.

My portrait photos were taken within the past year, the most recent, my profile photo taken in June 2023, photo 5 in January 2023, and photo 6 in November 2023. But, why not look beyond my photos to see a man who thinks and acts young, is kind, caring, and romantic.

My garden is quite large - it seems even larger when everything, especially the weeds, starts growing - so I'm an active gardener, albeit one constantly tempted by the reclining chair under my quince tree. As you can see from the photos, my garden has azaleas, rhododendrons, magnolias &etc. One all-action photo, taken in February 2024 and with no stunt man
required, shows me at the top of my tripod ladder pruning the quince tree.

As a retired university professor, I still write, publish - my latest contracted book has just gone to the publisher - and lecture, but rest assured (says he modestly), I'm no boring academic!

About his ideal match

I'm hoping to meet a charming young lady who shares my love of family (and grandchildren), is fun to be with whatever we're doing or not doing, and is great company when we are just together doing nothing. Is that you? So, why not say 'Hi'.

Let’s go beyond profiles, chat, meet, hopefully experience that 'magic moment' when we first look into each other’s eyes, and go forward into the future together as friends, hopefully more, on and off the dance floor. Rather than worry about differences, lets embrace them alongside what we have in common.
