In His Own Words

About him

Would say I am happy realistic person, life is not a stage to always have to be performing on. I wish best for both myself and ]those I know and love - always happy to help in my own limiting ways.
Relationship realization could be described by "when you know you know" (couldn't write down what that means :) ) - mutual forbearance of each other's perspectives on life and then the fun things.
I work in a university as an academic, which means I do have a concentrated knowledge on some topics, but also enjoy the general critical thinking side of life.
Shared activities could include gardening and walking (the odd pub beer and food) - enjoy simple hobbies including cooking, reading and sewing, occasional card game or backgammon wouldn't go amiss.
Historically my sports would have been rugby and cricket, nowadays a game of squash goes down well still.
No real deal breakers I can think of - we are all different - share good times together but no doubt have our own individual time. To others I may have limitations - but my world is good.
I am probably a cooler room with a jumper on rather than a warm room - probably feel most comfortable in casual clothes. Better to know these things now I suspect.
Would probably put myself more towards boring than on the 'go on adventures' side, but going away to get away (so to speak) is good. But adventurous - that's a different matter!

About his ideal match

My ideal match would be someone who at their time in life understands themselves - and see future togetherness as adding to what they are already - but not instead of what they are already.
In real terms, having their own interests, hobbies and activities, would be good - but keen to explore our commonality (appreciate the interests of others) and other interests.
Its good to talk, so chatting and seeing the funny/ironic side of things is good.
Someone who is proud of themselves (and can be proud of another) - proud of who they are - proud of the people they know (and have known).
