crystalsinger (43) from Hampshire

Looking at several profiles since I have been on here I guess we are all looking for the perfect person and no-one wants second best in this day and age. Looks do play a big part, but I think the ability to make us laugh, hold an intelligent conversation, and not use and abuse someone emotionally or physically is far more important.

I am of an age when I guess I am comfortable with where I am in life with regard to career, finances, lifestyle, friends. I know life isn't as perfect as to provide me with that soulmate, friend and lover that we all secretly want to grow older with, but I would like to tick some of the boxes, ie solvent, intelligent, kind and warm hearted,can make me laugh, and who understands the give and take of a close relationship.

I need convincing that there are still single, fun, interesting, intelligent, nice,normal,guys around,ones that dont lie about their age, take advantage, or lry you down. Even if they are 'just not that into me', I would like to think that I might at least make a few good friends along the way.

I am lucky enough to live near both the sea and the forest, so I do a fair bit of walking. I love films, reading, swimming, pubs, theatre, bowling, restaurants, and live bands, all the usual to be honest. I like animals and have a cat and too many fish to count. Dogs are a thing for the future, but work hours do not permit one at the moment.

I am not after a one night stand so for those of you looking for that... look away now.

Nice normal lady, without issues or baggage, Likes to love, likes to laugh.

Nice normal bloke, not up himself, without ex hangups, doesnt lie, laughs a lot, loves a lot... and isnt already married.
Failing that, some new good friends as I need to broaden my friendship circle as many of mine are in couples!
