In His Own Words
About him
I'm an intelligent, honest, friendly (I've been told that I'm very easy to talk to, one-to-one) and loyal man, with a good sense of humour, who's also shy. I like music, reading, nice food and drink, eating out, visiting places, cinema, DVDs and watching some sport - snooker, tennis, golf, test cricket etc. I don't like clubs/partying etc. In a group, I'm generally the quietest man in the room, who tends to be in the corner. I live alone in a house which I own.
I can't pretend to be a widely-travelled person. That's certainly not because I'd never want to be, but it's just that my general lifestyle - which tends to be more home-based - has never really taken me in that direction.
I do suffer from some social anxiety and have a phobia about cats and dogs. (Therefore, unfortunately somebody with any of those as pets, isn't going to be suitable for me). But I believe that I'm generally a fairly emotionally well-balanced person (although I'll certainly listen to my heart, I'm more naturally 'ruled' by my head). I'm very reserved and quite a deep thinker. As far as my general outlook on life is concerned, I mainly lean towards moderate/middle of the road.
I am a non-driver. I am retired (early) and with some spare time on my hands, have written twelve books.
About his ideal match
A warm but very strong, assertive woman, attracted to a softer man with a gentle nature. Someone who'll take the lead & definitely likes taking control of things. Ideally more comfortable being in the foreground than me. Be as honest as you like with me about what you really want. Do people find you difficult because you seem to be a control freak? Not a problem for me. I think for a relationship to work, both partners have to be able to be how they naturally are. But generally, if we've agreed on how the relationship will work, then though we'll have discussion, if she knows what's best to be done & how to do it, in the interests of both of us, then I'm happy to let her decide & to get on with it. or to follow her lead.
Also somebody who shares some interests with me & living in or around the Bristol area.
I'd try just as much as her to give whatever I could to the relationship. I certainly can guarantee that in return I'll be very much HER man, & will idolise her. I'll be extremely loyal to her. I wouldn't even find it a problem if she was possessive. Imagine being a woman whose man's devotion makes her feel like a queen on her throne. His eyes only for her. A man who's on a plate for her, ready to be eaten all up. And if she should be a woman who likes to hug & kiss her man, then she'd find that I like to be taken.
If we're agreed on how the relationship will work & are happy, then beyond that I'm a very easy-going man (laid-back to the point of being horizontal, someone once said).
You're welcome to make the first move with me on here.
