MySingleFriend

About her

I am a happy person, and one who likes nothing better than trying to make people laugh. I love my job and feel privileged to work in a great school with friendly, supportive colleagues and wonderful young people. My family are incredibly important to me, as are my friends.

I realise that internet dating is commonplace now but I do worry about the swift judgements that are made about someone based upon a photo and a few details on a profile, so I am hoping this might help:

- I may not have trekked across deserts, swum with killer whales, climbed a mountain or hitch-hiked along Route 66 but that does not mean I don't enjoy visiting new places or that I have had an uneventful life.
- I may not be a size 8 or 10 but please don't assume that I am lazy or unhealthy.
- I have a passion for history but please avoid thinking that means I love dried up, crusty old relics!
- I can fill my time and am independent but that does not mean I wouldn't love company.
- I take a pride in my appearance but avoid assuming that makes me high maintenance.
- I can sew and make my own clothes but that does not mean I am old-fashioned or old before my time.
- I love to read but don't assume I'm dull or geeky.
- I may not drive a Porsche but that does not mean I'm not an F1 fan.
- I have not been lucky enough to have my own children but please don't assume I wouldn't like to spend time with yours.

And finally, some things I would appreciate in a person:
* a man who knows that Jane Austen is not a lingerie brand.
* someone who realises that the Millennium Falcon is not a 16 year old sculpture.
* a person who understands that a semi-colon is not a stomach issue that requires surgery.

I would love to meet a genuine and kind person because that's what you would get in return.
