In Her Own Words

About her

No one likes the sales pitch, do they??

Still... I suppose it goes with the dating site territory... OK. So. My friends say I don't have a nasty bone in my body. I think that makes me sound rather saccharine. Truth is, I am kind, generous, tolerant and forgiving - but I value myself more for being resilient, bright, engaging and compelling.

On the negative side - not that I think it's a negative necessarily, but hey - I'm high energy rather than chilled out. And I think I rather expect people to be as charged up and driven as I am. I have deep emotions and can be intense. That said, I love pleasure.... I guess I just value eudaemonia as much as hedonia.

Writing's probably my passion. I write as part of my work and for pleasure too. I love words: the sound and play of them, the music, the ambiguity and the precision.

I love... hmmm... I don't want to say 'exercise' as I'm not a gym bunny... and it's not team sports or competitiveness... I guess I love being in my body: movement and strength and flexibility and freedom. So, I run, do some boxing, some swimming, a fair bit of yoga. My view, bodies matter.

And I love London for the vibrancy and the theatre and the bars and restaurants, the parks and the architecture and the possibilities... But I love the country, too - especially in spring and summer.

Like everyone, I tick the boxes for travel, culture and the arts. For music and wining and dining. All that. I like football. A lot. Not rugby. I like music - mainly Indie. Listen to some classical and jazz, but can live without it.

My biggest thrill is the stimulation of conversation. No, wait, there's one bigger still: the thrill of connection. And it's not about shared interests as much as shared intentions.

About her ideal match

I'm looking for chemistry and charisma; for profound fun and frivolous profundity. A bit of profanity and a lot of laughter. Someone with soul, a big heart and a good mind who is at home in his body. Not too much to ask, is it?

I'm quite tall and I like heels, on boots. Mine - not yours. Which makes me taller. And I like to look up rather than down.... Which is perhaps a superficial and limiting preference. But some men prefer blondes, so let's not quibble.

And I have an unjustifiable hatred for 'lol' used without irony and for all emoticons or emojis unless they make me laugh out loud.
