In Her Own Words
About her
Hi,
This is difficult without sounding like an ad for soap powder, or a cv for a job! I'm warm, loving, loyal and very tactile and looking for an open, youthful, goodlooking man with a big heart and expansive mind who is also looking for a new plot. Someone who enjoys being with me, as much as I enjoy being with him. Tolerance, loyalty, and openness are all important ingredients in a good relationship. But so is fun.
I'm a freelance arts journalist and published novelist and poet. I'm quite intellectual and well read.I love discussing ideas but am also witty and quite humourous. I enjoy good company and am a sympathetic listener. I'm pretty sociable but also like to have quiet times either to write, read or just be with the other person in my life. I live in Islington and love theatre, art house movies, dinners with good friends, galleries etc or weekends in a European city. Not a great lover of crowds or noise. I particularly love Italy, also just mooching in unspoit bits of England; walking by the sea and the country pub bit. Got married and divorced very young and my kids no longer live at home but although I see them a lot, I now want to share my time with someone special who understands what it takes to create a good relationship. I don't have a blue print - attraction is very important - but beyond that what works for the two people involed.
About her ideal match
Well this seems pretty prescriptive, doesn't it, saying what one wants? But well here goes. I would like to meet a man who wants to be with me as much as I want to be with him. Someone reasonably self aware, who can be both silly and serious, who likes ideas almost as much as bodies. Attraction is important - its the glue that holds the rest together - so preferably someone who cares about what he looks like, dresses with a certain casual flair and is taller than me. Loyalty is important and an understanding that good relationships are built with care.
I would love to find some one with whom I can mooch around, talk intelligently with, or just be. I suppose its about both people wanting similar things. For me that involves honesty, warmth, humour, a liking for books, art, architechture, ideas, wild places, sophistication and simplicity in equal measure, touch and laughter - oh and some good red wine!
That's probably enough to be going on with!
