Further to my post of yesterday, during the course of which I wrote about what I don't want in a man, I wonder if any of you can guess what I do want? I'd love to know what you think, and if you're kind enough to indulge me, I'll let you know what kind of man would interest me.

Yes
, that's pretty much it. Intelligence is defintely a must.
I can't help thinking that if you were looking, you'd be looking for the same as above. -

Someone forty-ish with an interest in non-league football and number plates?

How did you know I long for a man exactly like that? -

I think that he should be attractive, well at least not ugly, looking young for his age. I think you'd want someone round about your age for their maturity and experience.
You want a man who is sensitive but 'manly' in that he doesn't indulge his emotions but is open with them without being a wimp.
He will probably be a widower or divorced as it would be unusual for him not to be.
Definitely has to be intelligent and have a similar sense of humour to yours, seeing the funny side of life and noticing details of what is around him.
Distinguished grey hair, or maybe just grey at the temples with strong features and no beard!
You would find a sculptured face, with high cheekbones and good strong eyebrows very attractive!
Finally, he would be a professional
worker and have his own house, being comfortably well off, but not neccesarily rich.
I think you would like a convential man who has the heart of a rebel!-

Actually, I don't mind ugly as long as he's beautiful inside. Yes, someone around my age - a bit younger is good, a lot older is bad. Sensitive - yes.
Widower or divorced is right - I want someone who has experienced family life - someone who hasn't at this age, is probably too much of a challenge.
Intelligence and a similar sense of humour are the most important qualities. I'm not really bothered about him having hair, but no beard is right. I would find the sort of face you describe attrative, but if I don't see something in the eyes I like I would reject even the most handsome man.
Last paragraph, pretty much and you hit the nail on the head when you say 'a conventional man who has the heart of a rebel' - that's exactly what I want. -

Do you know, I don't remember this comment! I do hope that you either meet someone who is right for you, or decide to enjoy the single life.

I already enjoy the single life, not as much as I enjoyed married life, but I concentrate on the positives and find that this sort of life isn't at all bad. I'm very lucky that I've never felt lonely when by myself as I think loneliness is a great problem for a lot of people in my position.
It would be nice if I did find someone who is right for me, but I certainly won't be shedding any tears if I don't.

I do believe a man that is mature, stable financially, intelligent, witty, family oriented in the sense that he likes spending time with family and not necessarily interested in having children/babies...this man would interest you. How am I doing so far?

How are you doing so far? I'm not sure I want to say for fear of influencing anyone else who might want to comment, but if you would like to add to that, I would be most interested. Thank you for responding - I do appreciate it.

Fair enough. The man for you would be understanding and emotionally supportive but not clingy. He would encourage in achieving all your dreams while pursuing his own.
You would fall in love with his essence, his beautiful character inside and the physical shell is not important to you.-

Yes, pretty much, although I'm not sure I want to fall in love with anyone again. But if I like what I see in his eyes, who knows - always assuming I ever see anyone into whose eyes I want to look.

Has to be intelligent, that's for certain, but the others, whilst they would appeal, are not necessary. He wouldn't have to be witty, but we would need to share a sense of humour. He certainly would be out of luck if he wanted children.

Someone who is warm and considerate,not too dominating but strong, in mind. Looks wont matter too much, but intelligence is a must, for those long conversations in front of the fire on a cold winters night.
