I am a quiet person but honest and constant. I have had two very successful marriages, unfortunately both curtailed by cancer.
I live in El Mojon, near Pilar de la Horadada and have done so since 2003. I have a car and am willing to drive to the ends of the earth for the right person, (don't believe that, maybe only half way).
My wife died in September last year and I'm still a bit in grieving mode but realise how empty my life is without my partner. I am actively searching for that one special person with whom to spend time. Someone who enjoys a relaxed lifestyle.
I'm interested in Art and graphics, I write poetry and like quizzes because it is important to keep the brain active. I Iike romantic films, musicals (can't get through South Pacific or listen to Moon River without a tear in the eye). I like Strictly (but don't spread that around.)
I am definitely not one of the boys but enjoy female company. I am quiet, I listen and watch but on occasions quite happy to make a fool of myself.
My background is Public School and Technical college. I retired from my profession of Executive design engineer in the motor industry when I was 54.
The partner I am looking for is a little more than a 'mate'. I want a close affectionate relationship that might develop into a loving one. I need that person to be patient with me, as I will be patient with her. I want to hold hands and have a hug. God, How I miss a hug.
I want to eat out with a partner. I can't just sit at an empty table, I've tried it and I hate it.
I have a 50 yr old daughter who is a solicitor in Darlington, who thinks she knows everything, (but I love her to bits) My son moved to the USA and was a research Chemist but unfortunately died of cancer in 2013 in his 40's leaving a widow and twins. I have 4 grandchildren, 2 in UK and 2 in the USA.
My first wife was a beautiful Spanish girl, who blew me away in Madrid in 1961. We were married for 30 years until her death, again from cancer in 1992. I have a strong grasp of the Spanish language.
Having lost two wives and a son to cancer, my faith in the fairness of the deity has been shaken I have to admit.
There is much more to relate but I am reminded of my late son's comment that I could bore for England! Often echoed by my late wife!
