In His Own Words
About him
'I stayed alive. I kept on breathing. And then one day my logic was proven all wrong because the tide came in and gave me a sail.', Chuck Noland (Castaway).
Pleasant, agreeable and polite. I love music and would welcome going to see bands and nights out as a common interest. I also like cinema and film/video nights in. I enjoy nice food and I like dinning out and cooking as well ( but not always successfully). I am supportive and kind. I like to think that I can play the guitar but that's subjective. I also create my own music for my own enjoyment using various other techniques and technologies. I enjoy playing badminton, swimming and cycling but haven't done those things for a while now. Still capable though. I love going out to explore different places especially the beach environment/seaside. I would like to travel more widely if given the opportunity. I have some interest in sports but it is not my main thing really. I would say that I am optimistic and have a positive outlook on life in general. I dislike a lack of respect for the natural world. I do not like cruelty or suffering. I have an interest in politics (left leaning). I can be creative and practical and enjoy the occasional DIY project.
About his ideal match
I am looking for someone who is serious about a relationship who could share in some of my activities and interests but also who could bring their own aspects and style to the relationship. i am looking for a relationship with nights in and evenings out and generally making the most of life. I would like somebody with whom I could share a laugh & develop a friendship but it is also important that we have common political beliefs as well. I am looking for someone who is positive about the future. I am hoping for a relationship that will take us both forward to a happier place. I am looking for someone that also understands that I also have commitments to my daughter from a previous relationship.
