In Her Own Words
About her
Independent, undemanding, kind and low-maintenance Renaissance woman with fingers in lots of pies. In the fortunate position of being able to live the life I want rather than being driven by the need to earn a certain salary. (Did all that before I had my child).
I live in a beautiful, tiny, old cottage in arguably England's prettiest village and enjoy village life quite as much as I enjoy nearby Oxford or London, both of which I visit frequently. Son is now working after gaining his Master's in Chemistry at Bristol (university).
Been divorced for 16 years after 20 years of marriage and am friends with my son's father who has re-married, making a far better match second time around!
Values include kindness, honesty, respect, generosity (not necessarily of material things), loyalty and humour.
About her ideal match
Someone who also likes their space but who wants a loving, honest, committed and monogamous relationship, of a similar age, background and location to me.
Someone who is very bright, interested in the world around us, sociable and public-school/Russell-group university educated, looks after themselves and who loves a good debate without worrying about who 'wins'.
Perhaps someone who has the confidence to not need to control matters, who can enjoy the present for what it is, who has worked on themselves and come out the other end feeling content with who they are...
And someone with a good pair of legs - I love walking-and-talking, exploring and finding adventures both on the door-step and further afield.
Oh, and please may you be within an hour of Henley-on-Thames. In a car, that is, for you optimists with helicopters!
