In His Own Words
About Him
I try to keep my life simple: Enjoy a sunset drive round the coast in my mini; occasional kite flyer; sushi or any yummy treat; watching top TV series, selected sports, documentaries or movies on my computer (rarely watch TV except for business news); reading & studying; Blue Mountain filter coffee in the morning.
A jaded musician - I enjoy playing the drums pretty well in a band with 2 good friends, recording, keyboard, etc. Attend selective 'live music' venues or events occasionally.
Amicably divorced with a lovely young adult daughter I have regular good contact with and see occasionally.
Vices: Used to smoke cigarettes but managed to switch to vaping in 2016. I do enjoy the occasional whiskey, beer, etc.
Enjoy my beautiful tree-filled semi in Kenilworth. Worked in (online) marketing. Earnest long-term profitable student of investing & trading. Rarely cook but microwave and order takeouts well. Fairly reserved in unfamiliar social situations but personable.
Insightful and sometimes too honest. Loyal. Perhaps a little eccentric and somewhat reclusive. Quite well travelled, not too fond of it now, but perhaps with the right person.
Self-sufficient but seeking significant other.
About His Ideal Match
Your life is reasonably together. You're independent / fairly self-contained. You know how to sometimes just 'be'. You don't need to change me.
You enjoy similar leisure activities as above.
You don't mind that I vape and drink whiskey occasionally (in moderation). You ideally live in or near the Southern Suburbs (of Cape Town).
We share a strong loyalty and enduring mutual attraction - emotional, intellectual and physical.
We complement but don't need to complete one another.
Is this too much to ask of the universe - to manifest into reality?
I don't think so.
P.S. If I may use this space to thank and wish well the good people (near and far) who have reached out and to whom I am unable to effectively or courteously reply
- because I rarely have a subscription as I haven't had any success here, well, frankly forever. : )
