In Her Own Words
About her
Perceptive, sensitive, warm, witty, educated woman seeks tender, loving man .
Slightly irreverent, tad unconventional. I can be light and easy, funny and flip but I also think and feel deeply - don't do shallow!
I have spent most of my working life helping others. I tend to champion the 'underdog' and speak out against injustice and exploitation often to my own detriment!
I am smart, articulate, tactile and energetic. I live in lovely Ludlow which is a cultural mecca ,gourmet paradise and a walkers dream. If you like the great outdoors, theatre, cinema, arts, good ,honest conversation, food/wine, travel and are resourceful enough to cope with the ups and downs of life, then we might 'click'.
I am a Francophile but also love to travel more widely. I am adventurous by nature and love to explore. My kids have flown the nest and I've achieved all I need to professionally/materially so more travel and new adventures are a priority as are friends and family.
These days I work to live and intend to spend more time enjoying life and all the wonderful things the world has to offer ideally with someone who also seeks a better work/life balance.
I am a great homemaker but don't want to be a housewife! I am attractive but don't want to be an 'accessory'. I'm independent and strong but I also need someone to depend on!
I get pleasure from simple things like walking my dog, reading avidly, crosswords, pub quizzes, country life, open fires, my old battered aga, gardening, glass of wine, sound of the sea, renovating old houses,watching the stars at night and sharing day to day stuff with a partner on the same wave length. I can also strutt my stuff at times!
I am currently learning the Argentinian Tango which is a wonderful dance but challenging so if you are interested in dancing that would be a bonus.
I believe the past is for reference not residence and I carry my baggage lightly!
Thanks for reading this and best of luck in your search
About her ideal match
Modern man who is not 'stuck' in his past or looking for a housekeeper!
Someone who is emotionally literate, confident but not arrogant, caring, kind, communicative and cheerful. Tallish and tactile with nice smile and sensitive and loyal nature.
A dry or irreverent SOH is a must as is someone who is active, interesting and emotionally literate and secure.
Someone who is a 'doer' and will get alongside me to pursue and achieve our dreams. Someone adventurous and spontaneous who wants more than a 'convenient' relationship - baked beans are convenient!
Having said all that I know and so will you, that when the 'right' person comes along we just 'know'! I don't care if you are skinted or minted but I do care about whether or not you are genuine and willing to risk another foray into the unknown!
