Two years ago I was still married, sailing along thinking everything was rosy and then my life changed overnight, I discovered my partner was heavily involved with another person. I am just now coming to terms with this experience and feel at last that I am ready emotionally to meet and date a new partner. Why am I telling you this, well I think it is important to understand my back ground and where I’ve been. I feel stronger emotionally than in any other time in my life and would like to start a new relationship build on honesty and trust. I really warmed to some of the things you said in your profile and would love to have a chat, please let me know if you would be interested.

• Dear Xyz,

I read the following lines on an old shoe made of porcelain at my grannie’s house many years ago and thought the words had great value and it really hit home for me – Don’t walk behind me, I may not lead, Don’t walk in front of me, I may not follow, Just walk beside me and be my friend. I hope these lines appeal to you too, if they do, then I’d love to link up for a chat, please let me know if you would be interested.

• Dear Xyz,

I imagine if I had more confidence I would have met the right person by now. I consider myself quite reserved and shy and this makes it very difficult for people to get to know me, therefore, building a relationship has become a real challenge and my shy personality does me no favours and never encourages people to ask me out on a date. I believe I have a great deal to offer and just need someone to be patient and give me time to come out off my shell. If you like my profile and you think you might have the patience to meet someone like me, then I would love to have a chat. Please let me know if you would be interested.

• Dear Xyz,

I was involved with a person in my previous relationship who was abusive, very jealous, extremely controlling and made my life a nightmare – Why am I telling you this - I am looking for a partner who will share and add value to my life and not want to box me in and control every move I make. I am looking for someone who is extremely secure and encourages their partner to be independent and free. If you think you have these qualities, then I’d welcome the opportunity to link up for a chat, waiting to hear from you.

• Dear Xyz,

I notice you have two children from your previous marriage, like myself and I understand when you say, they mean the world to you, I feel exactly the same. My children add great value to my life and make me very happy in one sense, however, there is a real void in another and I know if I could find the right partner it would just be the icing on the cake. I really warmed to some of the things you said in your profile and think we may have a lot in common, would welcome the opportunity to have a chat, please let me know if you would be interested.

• Dear Xyz,

Been single now for a few years after a rocky marriage, a marriage I should have left many years before but could never find the courage. My career keeps me busy and interested and I have a great circle of friends that continue to introduce me to the wrong people, however, I know they mean well. Sounds really shallow, but I really like the photos you have posted on your profile and found them really appealing; I’m hoping you have the character and personality to match. Please check out my profile and let me know if you’d like to link up for a chat, look forward to hearing from you.

• Dear Xyz,

I’m in my forties now and have never married, which has a bit of a stigma about it, I know. After dating many interesting and beautiful people over the years, I honestly have no regrets and was sad when some relationships ended, but I knew in my heart they ended for the right reasons and they would not have brought me long term happiness. I really can’t face the club and pub scene anymore and my friends introduce me to the wrong partners, so I’ve decided to try Partner4real and see who’s out there in the big scary online world. Your profile pushed a lot of the right buttons for me and I thought we should have a chat. Please check out my profile and let me know if you’d be interested linking up for 10 minutes, look forward to hearing from you.

• Dear Xyz,

I don’t want to sound like someone trying to apologise for their age, however, for someone in their mid forties, I really consider myself a very energetic and active individual with a younger mindset. Without trying to sound cocky and conceded, I find that I have a lot more in common with a younger age group and prefer their company. I have tried to present profile photos that reflect the real me and represent how I truly feel. Not only is keeping fit and active extremely important to me, but I feel the right mental attitude is more important and I trust this will come across in my profile and appeal to someone like yourself. Would welcome the opportunity to learn more about your life and share more about mine, please let me know if we could link up for a chat, look forward to hearing from you.

• Dear Xyz,

I’m not sure males and females are designed to be with each other for a life time. I can honestly say, in the last few years, I stayed in my marriage and with my previous partner for the kid’s sake only and found it extremely stressful and unpleasant. I’ve been ready to make a fresh start now for so long and I’m really excited about having a partner that will make me feel alive again. Read your profile on Partner4real and it lifted my spirits, would love the opportunity to learn more about your life and share more about mine, can we link up for a chat? please let me know if you are interested.

• Dear Xyz,

I’m looking for someone who will lift my spirits, I came out of a bad relationship some time back and feel a bit battered and torn. Would like to find someone who will help me erase the memories and move on. Not sure I’m ready to jump into another heavy relationship, however, I do miss the company of a lover and would prefer to tread softly, softly for a while. I’m sure I would welcome romance again if the right person came along, however, you may need to be patient until I feel secure again to drop my barriers. If you think you can overcome these small challenges, then I’d love to catch up for a chat …please let me know your thoughts…
