Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Well let me tell you a little about me - and I hope it won't be too boring!! I have my own business, employing some 300. It is my present business commitments that make it so difficult to meet a girl socially. I would welcome replies from ladies of any age whatsoever. I do believe that age is just a number, and it is what is within a person that truly counts. I have varied hobbies, including photography, painting (no not doors!) and I 'm pretty adept around the house, being able to tackle most D.I.Y. jobs. I enjoy visiting historic places, going on picnics - cinema - restaurants and many of the simple pleasures of life. I've even been known to smile when taken shopping! I believe that the pleasure of doing anything in life can be doubled by sharing it with the right partner. I'm a sensitive person, who will give a great deal of love and affection. My sense of humour is good, and I am a sociable person. I am, I suppose, not too bad looking, I don't frighten the children and horses too much! (Well only a little!!) Reading through this introduction, I think I sound more like a Labrador than a possible date! But hopefully what I have written, might just tempt you to drop me a line or two. Profiles are terrible things to write, I don't particularly like writing about me, it somehow seems conceited, and reading this profile back to myself, I feel that I certainly wouldn't reply to it!!! But I sincerely hope you do. So, if you're looking for a guy who will be there for you, to hold you, comfort you, be there just to lean on and talk to you, a guy who doesn’t confuse love with lust - I'm here waiting. So write to me. My hand will always be open to you.

I hope that I am not asking for a great deal when I say that I am seeking a lady who is kind, has a good sense of humour, is sensitive, considerate, loving and above all totally committed and faithful - a one guy girl - and not into multi-relationships. Someone who will brighten my day with the sweetness of her smile. (I hope that's not asking too much) She will be a girl who has perhaps had many hardships in her life, a girl who is a little lonely and has had to learn to stand on her own, and yet yearned to be able to lean on a loved one's strong shoulder. I love children so if you have any that is no problem. Children should be treated with the love and gentleness that makes them grow into good people. As I have mentioned previously, age is of no importance to me whatsoever, it is what is within that counts, age does not make a person better or worse. I am an old fashioned romantic, who will bring you flowers, book a surprise meal and bring you little presents to say I love you. Most of all I will hold you close to me, give you warmth in this cold world, I will whisper tales of long ago and turn your lonely tears to smiles. I believe that a couple that share there love are stronger, and share the ups and downs in life far more easily. So if you're the sort of person who wouldn't normally respond to one of these ads, then please drop me a line - destiny awaits us both.
