Retired business gent, widower,71 seeks refined lady, social dancing, outings, long term relationship, live in no expense, own accommodation. I will pay for travell expenses for refined lady, I. Manage our local " Grand Tea Dance" & can teach people to dance ! My social life revolves around social dancing, travel ,outings , cruises & much more,

I am a fun outgoing person, who likes to go out for food and entertainment and also likes quiet nights in!!! I like going for walks with my 6month old shar pei and my daughter who is 4 I enjoy many activities but most of all like to have a laugh as life's to short...

Yes, I am a dreamer, an idealist. I am passionate about my career, my purpose in life, my partner, my quest for knowledge and my desire for a better life for me and my soulmate. Wow, that sounds pretty extreme - doesn't it? So at a day to day level how do I live this life? I love working with people who are seeking an extra dimension to their professional careers, I love coming home and discussing life, as i have experienced it and how I would like to experience it. I love seeing life through art, film, literature, music .... Specifically, I enjoy world music (Afro Cuba, Cuban, North African, African, Celtic), as well as the well known works of Springsteen, Dylan, Van Morrison. However, my CD collection does contain a lot of embarrassing moments (as well as lots of gaps to fill). I enjoy reading, learning new things, laughing at the world and my place in it. I try to balance some new knowledge, with quirky humour and trashy fiction. So at the moment i am balancing a bit of Dilbert, with David Mitchell & Mao's Great Famine. Although at times I can not quite work out which is the more surreal. Yes, this sounds a little heavy.... but I guess that is my mind rather than the content of it. I am at least a few light years away from a rocket scientist and get a lot of pleasure out of the joyful everyday pleasures - playing backgammon, mah jong, cooking and wondering at the quirks of humanity in Coronation Street etc. I guess a final word is about my love of Chinese culture. My last 6 holidays have all been spend in China, I love the landscape, the rich variety, the food, the 5000 years of culture .... so much so that I spent the last 6 months teaching there (in beijing). This was a great experience and I hope to repeat it in a few years time.....

Hi there! Thanks for stopping and taking the time to read this... Anyone who has written one of these profiles knows it's hard turning the spotlight on yourself and trying to offer and an accurate description of what you are like to a complete stranger but hey.. here goes!... I'm really a very nice guy.. and there aren't that many of us left!.. I guess you could call me unconventional.. some might say mad or weird but they really don't know me at all *grin*.. The reality is that I'm pleasant, polite, very gentlemanly.. may friends say I speak "The Queen's English", I was brought up with good values and morals.. but i'm not stuck-up or judgemental... I guess I feel that having been single for a while, I'm looking for a partner with a view towards a long term relationship.. I think I set my sights quite high when it comes to finding someone to be with.. I guess that explains why I'm still single, but I simply won't compromise in my search.. I don't want to be with someone for the sake of being with someone, that to me is a complete waste of time.. I feel very strongly that if you are with someone in a committed relationship, then you must have genuine feelings for them.. I'm a firm believer in "chemistry".. no not the eye goggles and test tube chemistry.. the tingling, fuzzy vision, can't eat, drink, sleep, heartfelt chemistry you get when you meet the right person.. I suppose its only fair to admit that I'm very perceptive, I'm a naturally gifted empathic and readily able to read people extremely well. Daunting though it may seem to meet someone who can read people like books, beyond the serious exterior I can show that I still have a very soft, loving and sensitive side beneath. Due to the nature of my job, I'm very confident and animated when in the company of strangers or whilst working; but the people I work with would find it hilarious to ever hear me described as a quiet person - the reality is I am a very private, quiet, reserved and deep thinking person I guess I'm pretty easy going and willing to try anything at least once. I like the unconventional things in life, the unusual and bizarre. I have quite a dry/dark sense of humour but at my happiest when everyone around me is enjoying themselves I work approximately 60 hours a week in a very demanding and responsible job. I enjoy my work very much though it can often be quite tiring and stressful. I suppose this is why I appreciate my free time and need some escape to relax and unwind I'm way too old to be visiting nightclubs now, besides which its just not my scene. Nice classy lounge-bar or places with atmosphere and history. I love being spontaneous and some of my best holidays have come from sticking a pin in a map !

Hi Never sure what to write here. I'm 52 years old but I considered myself to be as fit as someone 20 years younger. I enjoy running, swimming and cycling. I also enjoy walking in the hills and mountains. I'm looking for a friendship that may hopefully develop into a relationship. I have always thought that Filipino women are very beautiful and would love to form a loving relationship with a Filipino woman. I have 3 grown up children. At this time I don't know if I want anymore children. However with the right woman who knows.

My name is tony. I enjoy going out to restaurants, cinema and pubs. Also enjoy cuddling up on the sofa to watch tv/film, would be nice if someone could join me. Love animals. Looking for someone who is tactile and honest, is there such a person out there? I am down to Earth, happy, cheerful and understanding man...looking for someone with the same qualities

I'm a honest, hard working, good sense of humour, very young at heart. Very clean and hygiene. All my details here are 100% true, and I don't like playing or wasting a girls time, when searching for a potential life partner. I'm not going to say if I am wealthy or comfortable, in a financial way. Because I may not find the true partner who appreciates me for who I am. I like to chat and very happy to answer any questions at the beginning, so that the foundations is strongly built. So no misunderstandings and disappointments on both sides, later on. I've been let down in my marriage, and do not wish to have history repeat itself. I speak fluent English, fluent hakka, fluent cantonese and good level of putonghua. I learned to speak putonghua and pinyin on my own, by alot of hard work, studying phrase books and dvds. :) I had always wanted to speak putonghua. My written chinese is so poor, but i can understand mandarin pinyin. So if you cannot understand my english, maybe please reply to me in pinyin. My heart was broken about 6 years ago, which was not my fault. I've not really been out to look for anyone, since. So my reason to sign up here, is to see if I can get better chance to meet someone. Maybe a special someone who share some same interests like me. :) Looking for a friendship, then see if a romance will blossom! :) who knows where it will lead. :) If no romance happen, then at least we may possibly be better suited as friends, if you are in agreement. Sometimes, two people maybe totally incompatible as life partners, but may be the best, and closest of friends. SOME UPDATES: I've been here for a few weeks now, and I can say that finding the ideal partner is no easy task! The same for a lady looking for a man. Hehehe We can be all fussy and choosy. But hey, we are all human! Haha. I personally see it as the time for your soul mate, has not come yet. Everything happens for a reason. I fully understand that a girl who is willing to relocate, is sacrificing alot, to start a new life with their life partner. Its understandable that their ideal white horse Prince, would be wealthy, loving and handsome, to support her. Who would want to marry someone, who is not capable of supporting her? So I understand and expect you young ladies to be a bit more choosy and and picky. But can wealth guarantee that you have a long happy and successful relationship, than someone who isn't? Some are lucky and fortunate, but many of us guy's are not born rich and looking like white horse Prince. Hahaha! Ok, I'm not very romantic, previously, but that could could be because I haven't yet met my soul mate? And be able to talk about and share everything together? Everything in this world has their good and not so good combinations. So, for all of us, keep looking and don't lose heart. I say, "thank you!" in advance for any interest, shown, on my profile, and if I don't reply, please do not be offended. Sometimes its better not to reply, if one is not interested. I'm not perfect, but I'll be the best that I can. If two people are destined to be together, fate will bring them together, eventually. Have a nice day!

I am a very easy going person who enjoys and is always interested in the finer aspects of socialising and having fun with friends and family. I have a very caring side that likes to chill out and relax to a film or music and enjoy company and convers

I'm a only child who lives with parents and I can be very caring, romantic, serious, wise, stubborn,honest and I listen. I am bald which I couldn't put anything for hair, lol. I like movies, poetry, floristry, walking, driving, visiting museums. I have a parathyroid and thyroid condition which isn't so bad which I think has made me a wiser person in myself. I do not have any girlfriend and I have been trying for years to find an honest serious lady who will like to love and care for me, to take me as I am. I have been hurt and treated in a wrong way being used, scammed for all my money and just be taken on a ride which I am very caucious of who I talk to but I am willing to give someone a chance to give love to me which I wish someday to have in my life.

Hi, my name is Raimundo and I'm 48. People who know me would describe me as easy-going, kind, honest, quiet at first until I get to know someone. I work hard at my job but play hard too. I like the usual things - cinema, eating out or a nice night in with a bottle of wine and DVD. I like visiting places of interest, walking and hiking etc. My cooking isn’t quite on par with Jamie Oliver but I am master of the microwave!! I make up for my minimalist cuisine abilities with my DIY skills, so I’m not a totally useless couch type guy!! I’m looking to find a nice warm hearted girl leading to a possible close relationship, to share both the good and bad times with. Someone who likes travelling would be nice to. If you maybe interested then I'd be pleased to hear from you!
