In His Own Words
About him
I recently divorced after 30 years of marriage, which produced two grown-up children I adore. So, this is all new to me. The last time I dated, you had to post an advert in the local newspaper and leave a message on the telephone. At the moment, I’m looking for companionship with an open mind as to where that may or may not lead. I love cuddles, platonic or otherwise, cinema, comedy, live music, meals out and sports. I’ve so much to learn about this new world and would like to find someone to teach a middle-aged wallflower to enjoy life and have fun again.
About his ideal match
I’d love to meet someone warm, affectionate and compassionate, with a genuine curiosity for life and the world around them. It would be wonderful if they had a great sense of humour and an easy-going nature, someone who values meaningful conversations as much as shared silences. I appreciate people with diverse interests, whether it’s exploring nature, meals out, diving into a good book or enjoying cinema, live music or comedy. Ideally, they should be based in the UK, preferably near Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire or Warwickshire, so we can enjoy spontaneous meetups and explore together. Most importantly, I’m looking for someone who brings kindness and sincerity to a relationship, someone who enjoys sharing stories and creating new ones together. I’m not sure that I’m not ready for new love at the moment but have an open mind to where companionship can take us. I’ve so much to learn about this new world and I would like to find someone that can gently teach a middle-aged wallflower to enjoy life and have fun again.
