In His Own Words
About him
Never done this before, so here goes. Actually it's surprisingly difficult composing this in case I make myself out to be some Greek god (I wish). Anyway, I have been single for too long, working too hard my friends say, and at my stage in life it's about time I enjoyed myself with a bit of companionship - perhaps more, who knows. I consider myself fairly successful in most things I've undertaken. But the perfect partner has always eluded me - they're all married. I am popular with my colleagues at work and we all support and care for each other with hugs when times are hard. And they can be in the education business. I'm a fairly quiet person, but given the right company I soon shine.
I am looking for someone warm and friendly, someone with whom I can have a cuddle and hold hands, someone who take my cheeky sense of humour (and give it back - essential banter) and who is willing join me in my love of the outdoors and travel. The travel bit is essential - lying on a beach is so not me!
So what can I give you in return? I'm a caring person, would give you love and support when weathering the storms of life, and would be willing to share in your hobbies and interests. I hope that's enough to tempt you - nothing venture, nothing gain. As I said earlier - such a difficult thing to write this. Hope the next bit's much easier - and less stressful!
About his ideal match
My ideal match is someone who is caring, likes to cuddle up and hold hands, someone with whom to share my cheeky sense of humour.
My ideal match must share my interest in travel and the outdoors (I love walking but hills are beginning to get the better of me). I also cycle to keep fit. Photography is my other passion - landscapes which fits in with my walking.
I would like someone who is outgoing with a sense of humour who will cheer me up after a hard day's work!
My perfect date would be going for drinks and a meal; a coffee would be too short! Alternatively a stroll somewhere where we can get to know each other. Something relaxing.
I enjoy most types of music and would love to share our enthusiasm of pop concerts, gigs etc.
