Star72, 52

Funny, intelligent, generous, ambitious, caring, self assured but still romantic and I won't tell you which I had to look up in the dictionary. I can make a blockbuster action story from a Tuesday night trip to the supermarket and a great rom-com from a Sunday afternoon walk so I promise you'll be on top of the world and your parents will love me. Conditions apply.

I dont believe in short term relationships and would like something that lasts. I want to meet someone who likes to talk as I don't do too much of it, someone who isn't afraid to say what they like and dislike, and patience wouldn't be unappreciated.

I like to go out for a drink or dinner, of course. Who doesn't? A holiday and travel is great but sadly you can't do it every day so while it isn't so important, it would be good to find someone who didn't roll their eyes when I wanted to play on the Playstation and if you thought you knew which Star Trek series was best, and were prepared to debate the issue, all the better. So yes, my name is Richard and I am a geek but not too much and I am perfectly ok with that. I play video games and watch TV like 24, House or a film, preferring that to music. I do listen to music when I'm walking the dog or have the radio on in the car and I guess I know what I like, but I know very little and couldn't name half the bands I hear.
