In His Own Words
About him
It is a reasonable question! Why are we on this website?
There will be many reasons, but a single objective.
I find myself alone, meaning my life is missing a vital piece in life's jigsaw.
Optimism tells me that there is someone out there who could complete my puzzle and someone whose puzzle I could solve.
The missing pieces will include images of partnership, uncontrollable giggles, adventure, kindness, respect, and mutual and independent interests.
A brief glimpse of a few of my interests includes Family, Pilates, Mountains, Walking, Volunteering, Food and wine, Travel adventures, Live gigs, Choir, etc. (What does your list look like?)
I would be delighted to hear from you if you relate to my words. Thank you.
(The photographs are very recent. The second one was taken on the bridge of my Canadian friends' vintage boat, me navigating across Lake Erie.)
About his ideal match
The positives:
A reflection of what you have just read! Physically fit, outdoors lover, positive attitude, interested in anything and everything, socially interactive, (I am open to your ideas)!
The negatives:
A smoker or vaper. A 'glass half empty' outlook on life and a lack of awareness.
