In Her Own Words
About her
...sounds simple right?
Online dating has never seemed in the least bit appealing to me thus far, but I have been convinced thats it's just a logistical tool to arrange something normal... in what seems to have become a very complicated relationship world.
Although I am happy with my own company and that of my fabulous friends, there are some things that can only be shared with an attractive romantic partner. Also, as I grow (gracefully) wiser and older, I have come to realise that romantic relationships are necessary for emotional growth (A paradigm shift for me, certainly ;)
I am told (by afore-mentioned fabulous friends) to describe myself as young at heart, free-spirited, adventurous, brave, friendly, enthusiastic and fun-loving. Rarely overly emotional and quite pragmatic. I am fiercely loyal to those in my relatively small circle of trust.
Curiosity and appreciation of other people and cultures and due respect for the natural world is important to me. I love travelling and mini or maxi adventures. The best ones, in my opinion, usually involve some kind of physical activity. I love a good lay about, but best as reward for some physical challenge. There are very few things I wouldn't try (bungee skiing!) but I'm a particular fan of water sports, skiing, driving fast, and I currently practise archery, pilates, yoga, tennis, padel and horse riding. I am also (always trying!) to learn Spanish; not least in an attempt to keep my brain young, but also because I am envious of bilingual people and admire those sincerely interested in other cultures apart from their own.
I am a great lover of good food and consequently enjoy cooking and especially eating! - as well as a simple sunday evening in or a rainy day watching a movie.
I love seeing live music and I think The Tesky Brothers pretty much describe my relationship philosophy in a nutshell 😉 in their great song 'Hold Me' https://youtu.be/86DAAATkTUA
About her ideal match
I would love to meet someone with a good sense of humour, who is emotionally open, but doesn't play emotional games or need drama from their relationship. I believe drama and passion can sometimes be misinterpreted :/ My ideal match would be skilled with their hands (in many ways), probably be a sportsman, or at least a person who likes to get up and go, and someone who has a strong sense of decency and good manners along with common sense. Kindness and consideration go a long way in a relationship. I probably admire these qualities above all.
