In Her Own Words
About her
Phew it's a competitive forum in this dating arena....my parents met at a dance and so did my grandparents, shame I can't dance formally....There's also a photo of me and my mum because mum's matter and one of me with my son's arm round me because I love my son .
Who cares, I have old fashioned values, I believe in love and respect and caring for people.... and refuse to 'dress up' for my photos, you get my jist.....and anyone who is looking for a fling is off my wanted list, as I'm really not good at flinging any more.
Energetic and curious, fun loving and active, I am a lover of life, enjoying city life..
Yet I also need to have my countryside fix.
I am in awe of mother nature and a little heart broken about climate change and how we treat this planet
I love the sea air and sea swimming and I find watching the moon and shooting stars on a summers evening heavenly
From walking, swimming, Yoga, cycling, if the sun is shining I am out there ,then in winter (which is 9 months in this country)i love a roaring log fire ,cosy coffee shops, beautiful art, sunset or moon rise, I particularly enjoy the visual aspects of life.
I am looking for someone to go out with, to share experiences with as all my children have now left home so ready for more adult but not necessarily grown up time.
(A sense of fun and child likeness and humour is always welcome)
Fascinated by personal growth and alternative lifestyles I try to embrace anything that enriches life
Chemistry is I believe the great deceiver and I would prefer the kind of love that takes its time, like a fine wine... Although there needs to be a spark of interest as you can't yawn your way to love .
Who you are, not what you do is important to me, yet is it not true that what you do is often a reflection of who you are ?
About her ideal match
A great smile is always a winner for me !
I still believe chivalry is not dead ,so manners are important..particularly ones that last past the first few dates !
If chivalry is not part of who you are please pass me by.
Care in yourself and a trying to make the world a better place are nice attributes
Reciprocity, connection beneath the surface, someone who takes their time to get to know the person and knows that although first impressions count, so too do second, third, fourth, fifth and so forth.
Someone who appreciates the beauty of nature , a kind word, and who understands that relationships are something to be built and cherished and nurtured over time
Healthy is good because once I find you its nice to have longevity !
The rest , well just surprise me !
