Hi I’m young at heart but have old fashioned values. Due to experiences on dating sites, if a long term relationship is agreed to I will conduct a Claire’s law and Sarah’s law disclosure before you come to my house or near my child. Unfortunately it is clear from the last two years single that predators use dating sites to find single mums with kids so if you are genuine and here for long term relationship you will not take offence and realise I cannot risk putting my child or myself anywhere near anyone with a history of violence or child offences. This is not me being paranoid this is a mother being sensible and up front in a changing society . While I’m being serious and clear, I am not here for anything casual. I’m not here to discuss intimate details to get you off on a lonely evening. I’m not going to jump straight into bed with you. I believe good strong relationships come from a good grounding and friendship, you need to know you click and agree on a basic level and on your values before a relationship can start. I like to message and call for a while before meeting. Build up some trust and some understanding of you. It gives you time to gain an understanding of me too. If you are looking for a fast romance it’s not going to happen here, I like to feel comfortable and invest some time in someone first. I’m also of the opinion if you aren’t willing to invest time and effort at the beginning then when will you ever? I may sound serious but I’m actually very laid back and easy going once my shyness disappears. I love to laugh and enjoy the simple things in life. A beautiful sunset, the breeze on my face, watching people chatter with friends, a child’s giggle. I love to read and it’s my favourite guilty pleasure along with a long hot bath. I have varied taste in film and music depending on my mood and am quick with the banter when comfortable. I like long walks on the beach, nature rambles, animal sanctuary’s the simple things. I’m intelligent and can hold a good conversation and debate well. I’m looking for someone honest, truthful, genuine and willing to be a gentleman and give me time to get comfortable. He should wear his heart on his sleeve and be a straight talker, I like to know how I stand with people. Someone who can make me cry with laughter and be totally serious the next. Someone who is as happy at home as is outside rambling. Someone happy to sofa snuggle and netflix one night and restaurant or cinema another. I’m not interested in looks or money, they mean nothing and both disappear. I’m looking for my sole mate, my missing piece. Please chaps I am not here to inspect your Crown Jewels or stroke your ego or anything else. Genuine friendships and relationships seekers only thank you
