In Her Own Words
About her
I have retired from the professional world and now have time to focus on my writing.
I am a happy, fun and positive person. I laugh a lot and have a sunny disposition. I also have a "deep and meaningful" side which is evident in my writing & serious conversations.
I am honest, polite, have good manners & am respectful of others' feelings. I am sensitive, compassionate, kind, affectionate & romantic.
I spend time enjoying our beautiful land and seascapes. I love to walk by the sea and to sit reading, writing and creatively thinking, looking at the waves and watching the light change. I love trees and walking in the woods, listening and soaking up the atmosphere. I like to visit gardens, NT and others. I practice Tai Chi & meditation.
I have had 2 successful and rewarding careers - in senior technical & managerial positions then as a self-employed consultant/ facilitator specialising in personal development, self awareness & spiritual growth. I am now pursuing my other passion - my love for words & writing. I spend my free time helping others & enjoying the company of friends.
I have lived in several places in the UK & have travelled extensively.
I am a deeply spiritual person and I invite experiences into my life that connect with my soul: for example, some choral and classical music, other music with meaningful lyrics and wonderful melodies, landscapes, poetry, sunsets and strong, deep relationships with friends. I am also in the world (but not of it) in that I like rock music, dancing freestyle & riding on steam trains!!
I feel that communication, love, chemistry, fun shared, mutual trust, respect and support and the honouring of each other's creative and life passions are essential components of a healthy romantic relationship and I actively pursue these qualities.
I am a calm, warm and tranquil person, have a deep sense of contentment and enjoy a peaceful life. From this place I believe that I can offer the qualities that I value.
About her ideal match
I would like to spend time getting to know someone and for them to get to know me.
We would share over half of our interests and spend time learning about our individual pastimes. I am looking for someone who shares most or all of the behavioural standards and aspirations that I have described. He has good manners, is polite, kind and considerate. And fun!
He is happy with himself and generally confident and quietly self-assured. He likes to laugh!
I am happy to be supportive of his work, interests and vocation and I am looking for that to be reciprocated. I need a partner who, if not necessarily sharing all of them, will honour and respect my passions.
My ideal partner is affectionate, caring, thoughtful, polite and sensitive. He is relaxed and is generally a calm, warm, peaceful and contented person. He spends his time pursuing activities that he loves and feels fulfilled by them. He is comfortable showing emotions, love and affection and in sharing vulnerability and uncertainty on occasion.
My ideal partner is respectful of my need to spend time alone, trusts me and is emotionally grounded and secure enough to accept that I am faithful and committed to a relationship whilst still being my own person.
I am looking for someone who truly wants to be in a relationship and is willing and able to spend time and effort to communicate effectively in order to make it work. He wants to enjoy sharing his life and is willing and able to commit to a romantic partnership.
I am looking for a relationship where we enjoy each others' company and spend fun, interesting, peaceful and relaxing times together.
If you think that this man might be you, then I would love to hear from you! Let's chat and see how we get along.
Thank you for reading my profile.
