Chris, 77 - Cape Town

I am a self employed, self motivated maverick who enjoys a challenge. I am a participater, not a watcher. Physically quite fit. I like running , mountaineering and other outdoor activities. I also like indoor entertainments like making music , board and card gaming , socialising and being creative (not watching TV) I am recently widowed and find living on your own is really ten times worse than living with somone you love. I also believe that our lives are reasonably predetermined and we are all here to learn lessons. You don't have that much choice although you may think you do. However you do have choice in how much effort, love and attention you put into every activity and relationship. I am looking for a new lifetime partner who is prepared to share her love with me in a very intimate relationship. I am not part of the herd. Vegitarian, animal and nature lover. No children or family to speak of.

A woman (30 - 40)

I am looking for an attractive lady who is reasonably fit. Someone who is prepared to use our relationship as a soul growth experience . That means both parties being completely honest about everything in an intimate relationship. Love and tenderness are the keywords. My friends are in the age group late 20s to late 30s. She should be comfortable to mix with them. I live with 2 cats. Being allergic to cats would be a problem. Non-smoker please.
