In Her Own Words
About her
I've been described as attractive - even pretty, younger looking than my years, amusing & mischievous, capable & compassionate, bright in mind and eyes, organised & practical, wicked, passionate, hospitable, straightforward and down to earth, energetic & enterprising, brave, with hidden depths, independent - sometimes a bit too much for my own good, sympathetic, sociable but choosey ... at first I can seem a little reserved, but once I get to know you .....!!
I'm well traveled and really enjoy seeing the world and all it has to offer. Whilst I'm able to do this in reasonable style and enjoy the good things in life, my Yorkshire upbringing means I also appreciate and value the simple ... a walk in the woods, a picnic, a sunset over the sea, a pub lunch, a hug, party games, spontaneous invitations, sweeties, fireworks, stripes on a newly cut lawn, conversation and the company of good friends.
I'm looking for an equal, a hand to hold not a shoulder to cry on, a friend, someone to make my heart beat faster. Is that you?
...but only a locked photo? Well, looks might catch the eye but personality catches the heart.
If any of this is interesting and you'd like to know more, do get in touch.
If not, thank you for getting this far and good luck with your search.
About her ideal match
Well of course, all the usual stuff... charming, handsome, cheerful, thoughtful ..... and knows how to load a dishwasher!
He should have confidence in himself but without arrogance, be ambitious and an achiever or have already done it but without the need to prove anything, care about how he looks and how I look when I'm with him, be sociable and sharing, articulate, interesting and interested. He'd probably have children so he's able to understand and accept the relationship I have with mine.
Someone brave enough to allow me time and space to myself and wise enough to realise what a good catch I might be!!
