I am widower, artist, not young but fit and in good condition. I definitely want to live by the sea in Thailand. I've lived in many countries chasing my dreams...making them come true. I accept my partner the way she is or I wouldn't be with her. I want to be by her side...not pulling from in front, not pushing from behind. I don't need someone to take care of me...I'm a great cook. I can take care of myself but life is so much sweeter with someone. I am in my home on Koh Chang now. I love the sea. Live a quiet life and enjoy friends. I'm not a drinker...not into bars. Enjoy music. Am still fit and wish to stay that way. Most important for me is that we can understand each other and that YOU enjoy your independence and yourself. Each respect the other the way they are.I realize this is not going to be easy. I'm really not interested in a housewife. I like a woman with a career, an interest that she enjoys with heart and soul. I have noticed that these women are mostly in a city. Artist are by our nature very unconventional. I don't fit the usual "male" role, prefering a partner who conciders herself an equal in a relationship. And that my choice to live on Koh Chang may not fit most. But I hold to my belief that living alone is better then with the wrong partner. More or less, I am really never bored. I do believe another creative person fits me best...seems that way.Skype (chat): manfred.prost1
