DougFromPetworth (44) from West Sussex

Hi, welcome to my world in a nutshell. I’m an open, affectionate, genuine, honest guy who can be very passionate, romantic and sexy with a huge amount of love to give. I can usually be found wandering somewhere between indecisiveness and spontaneity and can be quite assertive when the need arises. I love cuddling, kissing, showing affection and know how to treat a woman. I’m very supportive, trustworthy and have a good sense of humour although you'll have to judge that for yourself.

I’m also user-friendly, house-trained and loyal. I'll even 'fetch' if you ask me nicely! Hehe

Recently I’ve been taking advantage of my single status and some travelling opportunities that have come my way. I’ve climbed Kilimanjaro (but I'm no mountain climber, this was a one-off!), backpacked around the Middle East (saw some amazing things) and yachted in Greece (both hard work and relaxing). You’ve got to try everything at least once haven’t you? Ultimately though I am a family man and would like to settle down and have a family and ‘normal’ holidays!

I like the finer things in life (I have stayed at the Burg Al Arab Hotel in Dubai) as well as roughing it every now and then ($2 a night cockroach-infested hostels!).

My ideal partner will be someone with a similar outlook on life (don't take it too seriously and take opportunities as they arise), someone who enjoys cuddling on the sofa at the end of a hard day, and is quite adventurous, and willing to try new things.

I am looking for someone to forge a great friendship with, share feelings and thoughts, have intelligent conversations with, hopefully leading to romance.

I want to find that special person who gives me those funny feelings in my stomach, who I can't stop thinking about and with whom I will want to spend all of my spare time with.
