In His Own Words
About Him
After a 26 year marriage, I spent several years on my own and in this time I've enjoyed finding out who I am, and to determine the priorities in my life.
I have a small group of long standing, loyal and true friends. These friends are each so unique and special that I feel I am blessed and I'm extremely grateful to be sharing their life with them. I'd say that they would consider me loyal, a bit eccentric in my philosophical views and wise in my guidance.
I have 4 young adult children, the older 3 are busy forging ahead in their chosen professional careers. My youngest son is finishing off his studies. My 2 middle children live in Cape Town and I go down a few times a year to spend time with them. I'm so privilege to be their father and cannot express how proud I am of each one of them. I love them and share their lives with a measured reserve.
I've managed to carve for myself a simple lifestyle. This allows me time to contemplate life, to explore subjects of interest, and to spend time lavishly with my friends and my children. In general, I do work, often on a particular project, once completed, I then settle back, this allows me to avoid drudgery and to have freedom.
I've remained active both physically and intellectually and enjoy the outdoors, nature, exploring diverse subjects and have a keen interest in the science - metaphysical connection.
About His Ideal Match
A pleasant face and a true heart.
Spontaneous and caring. A realistic view of life, with a heaps of optimism. Says no and means no, says yes and means yes and can use a maybe truthfully when needed. Independent, without being secretive. Can see beyond the obvious and seeks to explore and question the not so obvious. Tolerant without being devoid of opinion. Practical and creative. But above all, knowing how to be happy and desire to make those around you happy.
Compatibility in all domains: intellectually, spiritually, socially, financially and physically is extremely important.
I enjoy good conversation, so someone who can have meaningful exchanges would be desired.
My spiritual views are important to me, however, in the spirit of freedom, I am open and tolerant and would anticipate that attribute in a true companion.
In the social sphere I would like someone who sees the value of each individual and is tolerant.
I am not a materialist. I do not need any material possessions to make me, me. I'm grateful for what works for me in this domain but have no desire to ever make this the focus of my life again.
I would want someone who can embrace life fully, thus a healthy, not fanatical, view of her body is important. A woman who embraces her feminine qualities and is neither prudish nor promiscuous would be key to compatibility.
