In His Own Words

About him

Genuine, intelligent, self-aware and considerate guy seeking both a committed long term relationship and new friends. Developing wisdom, honesty and kindness are central to my life and I've found that those things, when combined with a healthy dose of cheek, can make life more entertaining.

I have spent much of my working life developing some new insights into the how to make negotiations conflict free and lead to intelligent, sustainable decisions. More recently my focus has shifted to making peoples' working life more enjoyable and satisfying. I feel very fortunate that work still feels developmental, fresh and inspiring. I doubt whether anyone who knows me well would describe me as a typical business professional and have enjoyed learning about the power of humour, humility and kindness in business.

When not working I've had a lifelong interest in sports horses and though I don't ride these days learning how to develop a different kind of partnership with them inspired me for several decades. I appreciate their athleticism, courage, nobility and grace.

I like to balance exercise/activity and peace and quiet in more or less equal measure and like to do a couple of different forms of exercise each week, tennis, swimming and cycling are current favourites. In the warmer months I enjoy sculling and sea kayaking, which is a lovely peaceful and nourishing way to explore our coast.

Socially I am more interested in developing good quality friendships and appreciate the company of a few close friends, it would be good to expand the circle a little and would like to spend time with people who have different interests to my own. Ideally I will also meet a true partner with whom to share time, closeness, intimacy, travel and ambition.

I relocated to the South West, inspired by the country and seasides and the warmth of the people. It would be good to meet people with diverse cultural interests and who would like to have some companionship on their travels. Good luck with your search.

About his ideal match

A lady who is open-minded and has both a sense of grace and a sense of humour :). Openness, generosity of spirit, mutual understanding, sincerity and awareness of others are values we would share.

It would be great to meet someone quite articulate who could appreciate the lighthearted and profound in equal measure someone and who would able to laugh at themselves, me and life in general.

Someone who is grounded, has some altruistic vision and a natural tendency to think of others. Someone who shares an ambition to have our relationship be a significant part of our lives.

I appreciate both quality and simplicity, separately and together - it would be good to share this appreciation with someone special to me.
