May we start with you please ?!!
What you want in your man, what's important to you, which activities of yours you particularly want him to share with you (ie not the traditional role-modelling where the woman is obliged to take up his interests), and your musts and must-nots ....because I certainly have mine !
Three quick ones to start with, just to give an indicator until I have time to return to write-up a full profile :
1 Sport-playing and outdoor-engaging - strenuously ! My litmus test - will you run beaches with me, through the winter as well ? You can wear trainers if you wish, I don't.
2 Still fully engaged in socio-economic life, working at the front-line of your life endeavour ...not about to retire any decade soon.
3 Live in North East Scotland, or prepared to spend as much time up here as you would like me to be with you at your locale. Preferrably be prepared to relocate here, or at least have a home here - I definitely will never retire, I'll become a professor (commericalising industrial science & engineering, Aberdeen, so you can guess the rest) and drive my students mad.
4 Wanting to build a life together ...supporting each others lives and interests ; finding a property where we can R&D some form of eco-farmette with chooks, buzzy bees, mad dogs and cats et al ; doing what we can to educate / bring on future generations .....and not forgetting heaps of passion, love and cuddles !
That ok for starters ?
More anon ....
Thank you for reading this, and either way, wishing you all the best in finding your perfect man (he does exist !)
James.
I haven't finished yet ...............
