Why should you get to know IWD?

Although understatedly English in many respects e.g. moderately engaging, occasionally humourous, reasonably fit, relatively successful in my fatherhood role & similarly in business/career progression, I've overcome my natural reserve to begin looking here for that yet-to-be discovered (though no doubt awaiting discovery)compatible woman. I'm fairly widely-travelled both geographically & philisophically - ideally, you would be too. I trust both you & I will find what we're looking for - you never know unless you try!

He describes his ideal match thus:

Hopefully, you'll have similar interests to mine, be at the same stage in your life journey having achieved a degree of contentedness thus far and be looking forward to the challenges ahead. In sharing "traditional" values, I trust we could enjoy each other's company and mutually benefit from a united approach to the peaks & troughs that lie ahead.Hmm - that does sound as though it was written round a fire in the winter months; now that spring is here, it's more appropriately amended to....a woman sought with whom to share the long sun-kissed evenings & the iridescence of nature's re-awakening after the gloomy season of sprouts & parsnips.
