In His Own Words
About Him
Here come those fifties, but trust me — I’ve still got fire in the braai and spark in the soul. I’ve built my career, raised a wonderful 21-year-old, and now? It’s time for me — and hopefully, you.
You’ll usually find me somewhere wild: barefoot in the bush, toes in the sand, coffee in hand, watching the world wake up. I'm the guy who sets up the tent properly, packs too many marshmallows, and still gets starry-eyed at a full moon and a fire crackle.
I cook with heart, braai like a champ, and yes — I even bake my own bread. I believe love is made of small moments: a soft touch, an inside joke, shared silence under the stars.
I’m not perfect, but I’m present. Loyal, warm, goofy when it counts, romantic always. If you're someone who values real connection, belly laughs, long walks, stolen kisses, and whispered “I’ve got you”s — then we should definitely talk.
Bonus points if you love the sound of waves, birds, or bacon in a cast iron pan.
About His Ideal Match
I’m hoping to meet a Lady who loves love — the kind of woman who melts when kissed on the forehead, smiles when I pull her close, enjoys when I hold her tight and she realizes that “I’ve got you” isn’t just a phrase, it’s a promise.
You don’t have to be perfect (thankfully, neither am I), but if you love to laugh, love to give and receive affection, and can appreciate a man who will fiercely protect what he loves — then we’ll probably get along just fine.
If you’ve got little ones? That’s not a red flag — it’s a green light. I love kids, and I respect a woman who’s made sacrifices for love and family. That strength? It’s beautiful.
Love the smell of garlic on your fingers from cooking? Or dirt on your shoes from a hike? You just might be my kind of woman. Bonus points if you love the outdoors, don’t mind camping (yes, real tents!), and think long beach walks are romantic, not cliché.
I’ll give you attention, affection, and a whole lot of TLC… but I’ll also need space when I’m focused on work. Mutual respect matters — I’m not into shouting matches or cutting sarcasm. I want us to build, not battle.
If you love hugs, kisses, long chats in the dark, and can handle a guy who’s equal parts goofy and protective — then what are we waiting for?
Let’s write a beautiful story together :-)
