In His Own Words
About him
I'm not sure you "should" - you might LIKE to get know to me if you're looking for a man who's eminently reasonable, respectful, well-mannered, well-educated, caring and, well ... considerate... and often makes people laugh (deliberately).
If you're searching for the looks and / or bank balance of George Clooney, look away now. I'm something of a niche product - more broadsheet than tabloid; perhaps more Green & Blacks than Cadbury's Dairy Milk. If I was a cup of coffee, I'd be an analogy.
I'm not every woman's cup of tea: I'd like to be one woman's glass of whiskey. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, brexiteer or golfer.
I'm not a fashion victim, but certainly not a scruff and never wear shorts (except for swimming). A while ago I completed a part-time Masters in Psychology but I won't claim to be able to read you like a book.
I have no pets, no superstitious beliefs of any kind, and no strange habits - unless you regard avoiding anything to do with football as strange: I loathe football - is that a loathing you share?
In most areas of life, I'm something of a theorist, except cooking; I'm surprisingly practical and quite creative in the kitchen. And I can operate a washing machine and dishwasher all by myself.
Things I like include:
Autumn Leaves (on the trees, underfoot and especially as a jazz solo); biking along the canal to a pub; Chablis, double bass (but I can't actually play one); E Type Jaguars (but I don't actually own one); firelight, gin & tonic, humour of Ayckbourn, Stoppard and others; Italian restaurants, Jacques Loussier, (the) Lake District, mountain biking, New York, Orwell, Psychology & Philosophy (not just of the second bottle of Rioja variety) ...
(K is missing - can you help?)
About his ideal match
What an appealing idea - that somewhere, out there, is an ideal partner; 100% compatible. I don't suppose I'm precisely what you're looking for - and vice-versa - but as I've painted an honest picture of myself, it's only right to try to provide one of you.
A sketch inevitably reveals something of the artist... But it is just a sketch - not a specification!
You're an independent, intelligent single woman, and of course a sexy and attractive one. I don't have a template of what constitutes 'attractive': however, I guess you're articulate, humorous and honest, an elegant career woman who does something interesting for a living.
You have interests - not obsessions. Is that you?
Realistically, no couple can share every taste, but you feel that sharing civilized values, a sense of integrity, a sense of humour, and sharing wine - and a duvet - is important. Is that you?
Nothing too controversial so far, so let me sketch in a few more details (which might well be).
About 30% of UK households contain a dog - yours doesn't.
At the real risk of appearing over-prescriptive, or intolerant, you’re really not a lesbian, a marxist, a pollyanna, retired, a swinger, teetotal, or a vegan (note this is a shorter alphabetical list) … You suspect that praying or using star signs is like trying to solve algebra by chewing gum. (You don't chew gum, smoke (anything) or have tattoos; why would you?)
Now for the really sensitive issue: I really don't want to offend, I'm just being open and upfront about this (I said I was honest!): you are child-free.
Are you still there?
You are: GREAT; thankyou for reading this far. Most will have self-filtered out by now. If you haven't, I'm already thinking you're rather special, and if you contact me I will respond.
Of course, we also need to fancy each other like mad...
