I've been brought up to treat a lady right - with respect & as an individual, so I'm looking for one who can challenge me, make me think, have a differing viewpoint from mine whenever needed. Be a partner, a friend, an intellectual foil through life. Someone who I can respect for her mind.
I'm also looking for someone who's fun, someone who has an inherent joie de vivre. A quick wit & a sense of humour are really important to me, as is intelligence & a pragmatic 'can-do' attitude towards life - anything can be overcome if you have the right attitude. Someone who's in control of her mind. Add stylish, well spoken & well read to that mix, somebody who attracts people socially. And enjoys life, a hedonist, always looking for adventure, to seek out new experiences, to overcome the unknown.
If you share the same fire & passion as I do, the sky is the limit...
