His narratives

Why should you get to know TheGreatGatsby?

I'm a fit, comfortably off male who enjoys...
meeting adventurous, thoughtful, sociable people...discovering new music...reading lots and writing myself...listening to piano and dreaming about playing it myself...a film with a great script...a life-changing book...designing and making my own furniture...climbing and mountain photography...seeing the sun set, and rise again, above the clouds...taking opportunities and risks...drinks with friends on a Friday night...cooking dinner for a lover on a Saturday night...giving (and receiving) good, old fashioned compliments...directness, warmth, intelligence...passion for a belief...commitment to a goal...seeing someone really express themselves...being serious when it's important but spotting the comedy in everything when it's not and never missing an opportunity to make someone laugh.

He describes his ideal match thus:

I'm a creative and adventurous person, and it would be nice to meet someone with a similar spirit, regardless of what they actually do. And although I work in a corporate environment, I don't let it get in the way of my imagination...
Whilst the importance of physical attraction can't be overstated, I don't have a specific list of expectations which define my ideal partner appearance-wise. Any look can be beautiful. I'm looking for someone who's geuinely confident and enthused about meeting other people, and who agrees that the most enjoyable way of getting to know someone is to do it face to face. Don't get me wrong, I know that the best things come to those who wait; it's just that I can't really cope with someone who wants to interact endlessly through a screen - email and text are great for making first contact, organising dates and conveying affectionate comments afterwards, but they don't let you see the sparkle in someone's eyes or the seductive smile on their face. Above all I'm looking for someone who, like myself, has really thought this through, is genuinely emotionally available and isn't shy about meeting up.
