In His Own Words
About him
I am widowed, I am feeling lonely and I would welcome the opportunity to chat with a lady. I hate having to talk about myself, it seems immodest, but it is a requirement
I am tall, slim, young at heart, masculine, clean shaven, well spoken, of smart appearance, intelligent, educated and funny with a wry sense of humour (e.g. like Spike Milligan). I am an engineer and spent most of my working life as a professional in the IT business. I enjoy theatre, TV, cinema, musicals, opera and ballet, and mixing socially.
I have three grown up children who are very important to me. I enjoy taking part in community life and lively conversation, gardening, and leading an active life. I retired long ago and am financially comfortable. I find myself alone after a long marriage and would like to meet a lady of similar social position to myself, who is feminine, loving and intelligent, and whose values and interests match or complement mine.
Please do not be put off by my age; it is only a number; I do have full mental capacity.
Thank you for reading to the end, Michael.
PS. I broke my hip years ago, walking for me is limited and I use a Zimmer frame. Dancing and travel are not options.
About his ideal match
I wish to meet a lady who is intelligent, who holds family values and who probably has children though this is not essential. I would want her to be proud to have me as a partner, as I would her.
