In His Own Words
About him
I know this is supposed to be an opportunity to sell myself but I’d rather give an honest presentation so you don’t ‘waste your time’ before you’ve even get to know me. Sorry if that sounds a bit neg. Just being realistic. This isn’t just about getting a date it’s about getting that date to be my last!
I work in a rewarding but sometimes hard and tricky job in the public sector and care and am very proud of those I work with and for. I previously for twenty five years worked well as a successful creative director
I am self-aware and I think kind. Although I’m quite shy, i try to make sure I speak up so my kindness is heard if that makes sense and is towards both best friends and strangers, not purely reserved for those situations that are easy, with those that agree with me and make me feel good about myself! As simple as I can be I just like to share good company be part of the world as a better place because of it, however modestly, whether that’s in minutes, hours, days or years spent.
So that is my brief (I hope!) resume.
If you think from this that I am indeed made of something similar as you, that I am someone who shows more faith in human nature than the tech on offer then think about me please. And if you see that I am someone that can live for now like you then think of me. (I’m not whizzing round the superstore of love, grabbing what I can as I trade in the cash and carry of high expectations, I’m just curious, wanting to be surprised, I’m just happy, wanting to fall and stay in love with someone who like me is willing to take enough risks by living in the moment and to forgive enough quirks to enjoy the results). Thank you

Music and film is my thing: Stevie Wonder, David Bowie, Roberta Flack, Wagner and Bach to name just a few. La Dolce Vita, A Matter of Life and Death I love oh, and cheesy monster movies I enjoy (sorry) where the monster goes through the cast until only two survive! Like Anaconda or Deep Blue. Oh and When Harry met Sally (but of course!)
About his ideal match
Yourself is enough. Really yourself. I don’t feel I have any right to ask or expect anything other than this. Have me fall in love with you and I’m completely yours so whatever I’m thinking now will change for sure. Sorry to be vague right now. I do like kindness and peacefulness in people and not in anyone that is cruel or takes pleasure in this. I like when we make mistakes, we make them together with honesty and humour and not to take ourselves too seriously and live for now. But by that I don’t mean disregarding honesty and integrity and commitment and loyalty. I love intimacy in all ways, in a look and thought as well as a touch and in loving. I want to be challenged and try new things so speak up at all times. So someone who reflects all this is important to me. I guess I'm old fashioned and believe in the woman's kindness being something of its own, and with this that a man is lucky do be part of.
Open my eyes when they're a little closed because I want to see you and your world. I guess that’s it for now. Is that a long list or just a hopeful simple one? I am happy to say much more than all this if and when we speak x
