In His Own Words
About him
I am a fit and healthy man who has been blessed with a long and happy marriage and a successful career in business. Sadly my wife passed away in 2017 and since then I have been looking for a soul mate to give me the companionship I crave. My permanent home is in Lanchester, County Durham, and I have a holiday apartment in Seahouses. My two grown up sons and four grandsons all live nearby. Foreign travelling, wildlife photography and outdoor sports (walking, cycling, swimming) are very important to me and I would like any future partner to share in these interests. Loyalty, Fairness and a good sense of humour are top of my personal values list. In summary I would like to meet an attractive woman - of similar age - who shares these values and interests and makes me feel proud again.
About his ideal match
Loyalty, fairness and a good sense of humour are top of my personal values list and I would hope for the same in my partner. It will be someone who enjoys intelligent conversation. is self confident, adaptable and able to respect the views of others even if they differ from her own. Distance is important but not a deal breaker. Within 20 miles would be ideal but I have been on this dating site for long enough to realise that is unlikely. In other words I would be happy to work on a long distance relationship if the person was right.
