In Her Own Words
About her
Well, firstly, I am modest! I shall say I am interesting and good company, I can be quite funny. I have spent the last few months really considering how I would like to spend my time and I am thinking, about going out and exploring the world with a nice man. I have decided that I should very much like to meet someone. A really nice someone (of course) to enjoy life with!
Perhaps that is you?
About her ideal match
You will be exactly who you are. You will enjoy having fun, getting lost, walking, talking, exploring, being good company and being alone sometimes.
I would like to meet a man who is interested and interesting, kind and generous of heart, who sees the brighter side of life and is happy with himself.
I would like him to be a grown up and to know his own mind.
What Her Friends Say
Stef said...
I met Marilyn on a creative writing course many years ago and we have been firm friends ever since.
She is vivacious, stylish, intelligent and great fun, with an inner joy and delight in life that shines through and brightens the day of everyone who meets her, from shop assistants to the stranger who sits next to her on the bus.
That's not to say that Marilyn finds life one big laugh. She is a savvy, empathetic, loving and respectful ally to her friends and family, knowing when to listen and when to speak. Her wide knowledge and practice of mindful living, meditation and alternative healing reflect her commitment to live in loving kindness, but she can be mighty feisty if anyone mistakes that kindness for weakness.
Marilyn likes a quiet contemplative start to her day, and then she's ready to embrace the world outside her window. Her gregarious nature means she has a great social life: among a host of delights, there's dancing (ska, rock), going to see stand-up comedy (David Sedaris among others), theatre and cinema (recently blown away by 'Loving Vincent'), seafront walks with pals, and weekly singing with friends (60s rock).
To sum up: anyone meeting Marilyn for the first time will find her charming and easy-going company. To those of us who know her well, she is a one-off, an original, a rare and special person. I feel privileged that we are friends.
