In His Own Words
About him
People say I am a good listener with empathy and warmth. I have a strong sense of vocation and purpose in life: - loves church, and classics or gospel music - and good home based friendships. Interested in finding someone who is natural, who would be happy with sharing a range of social events. and developing a friendship and care as first steps. This would start with outside coffee meetings, eating out, just being with, as in car trips and good walking to visit historic buildings with beautiful gardens, museums and art galleries. Would like to do great days out and learn to communicate and share - followed by eating out and a relaxed conversation. I am a retired civil servant economist. I still am on a few committees so perhaps describing me as semi-retired with lots of flexible time commitments for leisure. And I would be happy if my partner had her own special interest / charity or hobby that she spent time on. Family is important to me and would be to you too. I realise families can be complicated at times, so aware of sensitivity here.
Finally to keep fit: active walker (aim 6000+ steps per day) and occasional swimming
About his ideal match
Someone who will understand me, support and come to care deeply for me, as I will come to understand her and her feelings. We would empathise with each other, and no doubt in our various past experiences we would come to love each other. So "friendship to relationship" is the aim but let us build up time together and see what happens. It would be good if we shared the importance of Christian faith together.
