In Her Own Words
About her
Never done anything like this, so somewhat apprehensive!
4 years since losing my soulmate, and whilst I’m busy and active, and have good friends, I recently find myself thinking I’m ready to enjoy the company of another special man in my life in the coming years.
Can I find him? Is it possible? Who knows? But it won’t happen without trying!
Friends describe me as sincere, happy, approachable, helpful, caring, generous and fun to be with, and say now’s the time I should think and do more for my own future happiness.
I enjoy country and coastal walking in good company, and regularly visit a small local gym - so am keeping generally healthy. I love entertaining, cooking and music (often being found in the kitchen with the radio on!). I also enjoy eating in or out, cinema/theatre visits and sometimes just relaxing chatting, watching tv or with a good book.
Travel and exploring at home or abroad has given past pleasure, and it would be great to find a best mate with whom to plan and share these activities again.
My outlook is optimistic. Yes, life deals us all unexpected challenges - but tomorrow’s a different day to be seized and enjoyed!
About her ideal match
My ideal match would be a sincere and trustworthy gentleman who’s generally active and happy in life, is good company and has some similar interests. Like me, he may have experienced the loss of a special person and is looking to pursue an initial friendship - which might lead to shared happiness, through companionship and affection.
