In His Own Words
About him
Well... I'm easygoing, though I have a clear idea of what I like or dislike, as well as being an understanding type. Dry-ish sense of humour, sometimes (or even often) tongue-in-cheek.
Plenty of hobbies & interests, from most public-school-type sports to lit & history & philosophy to music to macrame.
[ NO, Strike macrame! ]
To relax : hanging ten, surfing with my labrador, Lassie. [ NO, I'm not that cool. ]
Pretty open (without believing in crystals, tealeaves, asparagus-reading, aliens etc.), explorative, freethinking outlook on life..
Of the philosophy that I should learn many new things each day, & that each day ought to be a blessing.... Doh.
And there is probably nothing more I can add that has not been said many a time on dating profiles, so I think it best to get to know someone through communication, not by reading an advertisement.
(I abhor cliches, & hope that you have noticed that, while reading all this .. !)
Classic Romance says : " We recommend choosing photos that say 'I'm friendly and loveable' [ i.e. an oleaginous rictus toothy smile a la Tony Blair !? ] instead of 'Come any closer and I'll bite.'"
Ooops -- but at least my bites are more nibbly.
Also, N.B.: CfMR. cannot even spell the word lovable, so that could perhaps tell you a lot about whether you've joined the right site..
About his ideal match
A nice fit & healthy lass with a good heart & SOH ( Pythonesque, ..or at least Fawlty Towers-esque, so Humour Sapiens are welcome ) & a music-lover.
(Jumping Jehoshaphat, they want me to write more than this....?!
But then, how could one possibly prescribe, or generalise, what a woman ought to be like?)
Still,... having said that : for pity's sake, Not a Gogglebox "Giles & Mary"-type relationship, thank you... Hilarious to watch, but a nightmare to be in!
« Plus je vois les hommes, plus j’aime les chiens », disait Lamartine au comte d’Orsay, un peu après 1848.
“The more I see men, the more I love dogs,” said Lamartine to Count D’Orsay, a little after 1848.
Relevant.... or not?? Discuss.
Come to think of it, a massive number of women on here seem to prefer yappy wee dogs..... Sigh.
[ Hence, a wee suggestion to certain ladies on here..
Before saying hello to any prospective beau, please first read Andrew Marvell's cogent "To His Coy Mistress."
-- OR, for the more modern, independent-minded woman :
Listen to the Beatles' "We Can Work It Out." ]
[ Here I should add : it's VERY unnecessary to read below here;
or for that matter the above, let's face it. I mean, life is all too short.]
{" Recorded during the Rubber Soul sessions, “We Can Work It Out” was a gold certified single McCartney possibly wrote about girlfriend Jane Asher.
It’s an important song in the transition of The Beatles from pop-band singing about relationship tropes to an experimental rock band bending the rules of music. The song is very straight up and down, but the bridge presents an airy, other-worldly aside that the band would start to use for entire songs (“Eleanor Rigby,” “Within You, Without You.”)
It was another number 1 for the band in both the US and the UK."}
Granted, the above is irrelevant for meeting anyone, but may be of interest to a few, that is, those that joined up here because of a love of music, rather than the numerous other sites that CfM has "borrowed" ladies from !
