In His Own Words
About him
Now the difficult bit. Why me. If I were a second hand car the description would be “ showing signs of wear and tear, few dents and odd bit of rust, but quite good for its year. One owner from new with full service history.”
After the sad passing of my wife of fifty years plus, I concentrated on my business of wood carving and leather crafts. I filled in my spare time with study of Anglo-Saxon history. However, I recognise I have become a bit of a loaner and am missing sharing my life with someone close. As a child of the late 50’s and early 60’s when someone recently described as the oldest hippie he new , minus the hair, I quite liked that.
If this was a tick box exercise I think some of this would be fair.
Grumpy:- Rarely, but has been known when I blunt a chisel .
Independent:- very stubbornly at times I am told.
Kind:- I try to be, as I value this in others.
Optimistic:- I believe so.
Honest:- yes to a fault. Some times a little too honest.
To sum it all up. “ I am what I am” socially clumsy at times but has an adventurous love of life.
About his ideal match
I thought the first part was difficult, but this is worst. Describing an ideal is so artificial. I do know I would not be able to cope with a closed mind. Someone who could not embrace new ideas. Intelligence and kindness are a massive attraction in a personality along with independence and curiosity. Sensuality and physical attractiveness is all just part of the magic mix that makes one person attractive to another . A quote from an Anglo Saxon poem said it better than I can.
Do not lead as I will not follow.
Do not follow as I will not lead.
Just walk with me and be my friend.
