Why should you get to know Antique_and_Artlover?
Lets keep it simple!!!!. I am not promising that I can not be emosional,moody,sad,unhappy or just a normal human being. However I believe in partnership and romance.Is it still possible?Is a mature honest relationship possible?
My passions are ranging from ballet, opera to the 2nd World War, camping, 4x4 driving,horse riding,the outdoors, bush, theatre, rugby, dogs (husky-sledge-running), collecting Royal Dalton, old furniture, art and books. Road and Trail running is a new hobby.
I believe in the total person and not in sections, and accept anybody that is true to her and me.
I believe in fun, adventure and the basis of humour as the essence of mankind. I believe in laughter and as the poet said:
"...Next to the sea in the autumn,
your laughter must raise
its foamy cascade,
and in the spring, love,
I want your laughter like
the flower I was waiting for,
the blue flower, the rose
of my echoing country..."
I believe in experiencing life in all dimensions, to travel, going to auctions and surprising my partner with flowers and dining out. I cannot promise heaven and earth but do know I'm someone who has a great capacity for love and affection and I'm definitely a one-woman man. I am a man who has reached a point in my life where I am tired of playing games and bored of meaningless encounters. I am looking for something special, something different, and something that comes once in a lifetime, a love that is exciting and scary at the same time.
Patience and understanding are virtues of mine.
I am content with life and leading a comfortable and self sustained life with all the necessary existential trappings, but I am in need of an independent, , intelligent, mature friend charing my believes and wants= A PARTNER.
He describes his ideal match thus:
DO YOU LOVE THE ARTS, BUSH / NATURE AND CULTURE SCENE?
Are you spontaneous? Can you talk about your emotions and feelings without SUPRESSING it? Will you be able to tell me what do YOU want as a lover and friend without hiding it? Can you be honest about your emotions? Somebody that believes in herself and her partner and base her relationship on communication, respect, acceptance and most of all TRUST.Passion and romance are a must. Patience and acceptance of your partner with his good and bad points; would be a bonus. An independent, [I DO NOT want a friend that is a robot] person that loves to be spoiled and be treated with old age manners, sincerity and kindness, but not smothered! Weird I know!
Are you classy and stylish but with an arty/sporty and unique individual streak? Somebody that would like to take bubble and candlelight baths, is passionate about animals, would be excited at art auctions, will watch ballet and run the next night on a beach in Mozambique, somebody that will watch rugby with me, cry with me, laugh with me. A person that believes in the magic of touch and the awesome feeling of closeness in sleeping spoon and holding hands whilst sleeping or falling asleep.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN HONESTY?
Would you like to travel to the Serengeti, Zanzibar and the Okavango?
Are you a Kerkorrel, Stones, Sting, Collins, U2, Beatles and Theuns Jordaan fan?
Do you prefer intelligent conversation, candlelight and red wine?
Do you love sport? PLEASE
Do you love art,4 x 4 driving,horse riding,biking (love my BMW),cabaret shows,eating out?
Would you be able to run in the bush and get exited about wildflowers, butterflies, birds and go to the State Theatre the next night? Can you get passionate about a sunset? Will you be able to talk hours about that illusive photograph?
DO YOU WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE AN INDEPENDENT, INTELLIGENT INDIVIDUAL?
Let me know......
