In Her Own Words
About her
I am fun to be with, good conversationalist, entertaining - am usually tolerant of others though with strong opinions on political social issues, Culturally refined with wide range of interests in theatre, art, cinema, literature, For lifestyle i walk, do yoga and pilates, occasionally garden, and for leisure read, watch movies visit galleries and theatres. My outlook is one of 'liberal' benevolence, with concern about the way the world is going, and wish it were a better place . Seek to find fulfilment in a relationship but recognise that is a big ask. I was widowed last year. At present I travel between New Zealand where I have family, and England and continue academic work in retirement (i was a university lecturer in English), writing articles, editing books and journal issues giving lectures, Reading and writing, criticism, love of poetry and stories in general have been, continue to be my life and of late in more public and active ways
About her ideal match
Someone who is likewise entertaining good conversationalist, able to see the humour in the dark side of life, who can make an impression yet remain thoughtful and engaged. Flexibility and tolerance as well as synergies of shared interests, and a mutual attraction, are factors for a good match, also sense of someone else's orientiation, achievements and command of the life already lived . Sharing all that i thrive on such as friends, domestic world, social activities, cultural and literary interests are important. Willingness and romance are always game changers.
