In His Own Words
About him
I am described as loyal, caring, generous (to a fault), considerate, loving, even romantic at times, a dreamer, hopeful, and honest.
I like quiet places, pubs, restaurants, walks on the beach/forest/hills, and the colder weather.
I dislike inconsiderate people, noise, crowded places, and noisy cars.
I love helping others; I run a charity which helps people with mental health challenges, especially PTSD.
For fun, I walk, go to a quiet pub and work, read, swim, watch the sunrise, and then watch it melt into the sea in the evening.
About his ideal match
Warm, caring, tactile, happy to wander and chat.
She is not too formal or obsessed with the "right thing to wear" or the "right way to look" so that I fit in!
She will want her own space and allow me mine too.
I am me, just as I am. I am unlikely to be your perfect man, but I'll become conscious of your needs, hopes, desires and dreams, as I hope you will of mine.
I'd like to walk, talk, and hold your hand, to listen to your hopes and hear you laugh. I will be there when you're sad, hold you when you cry and hold you as you sleep.
A deal breaker is if you keep trying to make me into your perfect man or wear the clothes you want me to wear and be ridiculed and chastised for my choices or beliefs.
I will respect you as you are. Please do the same for me, too.
Thank you x
What His Friends Say
Steph said...
Why should people get to know Mac?
Mac is the nicest, kindest, and most generous person I have ever met. He is considerate, thoughtful, and has a great sense of humour that people love.
What makes him so special?
He helps people daily walking around Birmingham. I think it's because he's no one special in his life, so come on, ladies, say hi to him.
Mac is "really" honest and he'll tell you what you need to hear rather than what you prefer to hear, but most people find that refreshing. If I ask him if my outfit looks nice, he'll tell me if it doesn't and why. He is diagnosed as autistic and has PTSD, but you wouldn't know unless he told you.
His relationship with his two kids is amazing. They love him like a dad, but they all get on like best friends, and I think that's rare and rather beautiful. He is generous to a fault. Literally! He does way too much for others and needs to spend more time on himself and his own (and maybe your) happiness. Again, I think a loving partner would fill that hole. Ladies, seriously, don't miss this man. There are none like him out there.
What makes him tick?
What drives him is helping people. I think he's addicted to it, but in a good way. Being an ex soldier explains why his charity is focused on helping serving members of the armed forces, veterans and their families through his charity when he can. His deep need to do the right thing drives his morals, and that's honourable but can cause issues. My father served with Mac in the army, and I knew him from then. I still call him Mr Mac as I did as a young girl.
Any funny moments to share?
Once, when we were out in Birmingham, a hen party of mature women kidnapped him as a good luck charm and dragged him from bar to bar for over an hour until I helped him escape. I was crying with laughter at their boozy antics, his surprise and awkwardness at all the attention, but in the end, I helped him escape. It's a great story, and I still giggle about it now.
