In Her Own Words
About her
I have a love of life - Motivated a doer not a procrastinator. I have travelled extensively. I have been in business all my professional working life , self made, solid down to earth, I happily mix with people across the board . Sadly I have been widowed twice, once very young in my 30's then more recently in March 2026. I have no children I was unable to have them and sadly I now have no living family so life can be lonely at times but I am blessed with amazing friends and exceptional neighbours. My life is full and in the main happy. I am comfortable in all company. I am social easy to talk and laugh with. My appearance is proud I dress really well, I am slim and very fit and appreciate the the same attitude in the type of man I would be attracted too. I love to walk and cycle . A man needs to have a modern clean cut well groomed look, enjoy clothes both casual and dressy , if a man likes to be proud to have me on his arm it goes both ways, my standards are high both for myself and in the man that would attract me. I would like him to be at ease in nice restaurant's, I love to dine out and dine well . I am a foodie at heart quality over quantity and if I say so myself a good cook. I like nice not over the top, but not cheap wines. I have a beautiful home , a homemaker, a tidy living person. I am arty , practical, love DIY and interior design. I have a joy for life that lifts and excites others . My glass is always half full. Incidentally my photos are bang up to date and my age is true I expect that from you too
About her ideal match
All that I have said above - a man whose attitude is on par with my own, who likes a soft natured affectionate loving but confident female in his life..
