About Teresa1717

Teresa1717 is single and is seeking males for a serious relationship.

Please don't send me winks or other emojis instead of a written message! Looking for a loving, lasting, devoted romance with an older gentleman who lives in the English countryside (not the coastline, though) an easy train journey from London. I'm not attracted to younger men.

What do you like most about where you currently live?

It's the most desirable part of central London, close to all the amenities, with perfect links to other parts of London and the UK. The world is my oyster. I will retain my current home as a London bolt hole to return to once a month for a few days when I move to the countryside.

What do you enjoy most about your current job?

This question reminds me of the Dowager Duchess in Downton Abbey (Maggie Smith: "What's the weekend?")

What are your favourite leisure activities?

Listening to music, watching old TV shows and films, enjoying birdsong and murmur of tree branches and leaves, reading, exercise. I'll start using my creative talent when I move to the country.

Where in the world are your favourite places?

In my darling's arms by the fire in the drawing room of our country house, and also enjoying our grounds.

Where in the world would you love to visit?

The English, Scottish, Irish and Welsh countryside.

What would you do on an ideal date?

I don't do dates. A lunch appointment or afternoon tea would be my equivalent.

What are you looking for in a partner?

The right person for me.

What makes a good relationship?

Being with the right person for you, and then everything will fall into place. In online dating, being over-prescriptive is counterproductive.

What makes you laugh?

Some British sitcoms, Dynasty, also period shows and screen adaptations like Pride & Prejudice and Downton Abbey. I laugh at people, but it's always politer to do it discreetly of course. I laugh at myself. To me, I'm unintentionally funny. I was told by a casting agent years ago that I should be on Made in Chelsea. I wouldn't like to become well known, so that wouldn't have been for me.

What music do you like?

Classical, easy listening, Motown, slow jazz, blues and some pop from time to time.

What has been the highlight of your life so far?

No such thing. It's all just lessons. We're in school. We need to be careful not to collect bad karma along the way. I'm here to learn and ascend. And you?

What are you looking forward to in the future?

There is no future any more than there's past. It's all in the now. There's no linear time.

What has been your most significant discovery?

That life's a theatre play. Just sit back, and watch the show! Your scenes will come and go.
