In His Own Words
About Him
I'm an inquisitive, imaginative, experienced and accomplished guy, but like to think that I remain understated, unmaterialistic and down-to-earth.
I'm a pretty active sort, and do a lot of road running, having completed numerous 1/2 marathons and a couple of marathons. I really enjoy skiing too, and when I get the opportunity I take on the pistes as an enthusiastic intermediate. I grew up on a farm in Zim, so love the bush and going on mystery tours in the great outdoors to places I have and haven't been to before, and really enjoy it when the GPS says I'm in uncharted territory, no longer on a track of any kind (Hiluxes can go anywhere.) I have a wide range of interests, ranging from mucking about looking for Stone Age tools, to trying to understand how the stock market works (and failing, dismally, at the latter.)
I'm pretty reserved at first but get past that and you'll find a guy who is humorous, intelligent, considerate and loyal at heart. Essentially I'm an old school Zimbo boy, who values his friends and family and the time spent with them, who enjoys a lekker jol, a good laugh, and going out adventuring.
About His Ideal Match
This is hit or miss, but if you see the humour then we're on the same page :-)
Job Description: Significant Other to the Bush-Happy Zimbo (BHZ, hereafter)
Division: Personal Affairs
Department: Relationships
Work Type: Short-Term probation, with the possibility of a permanent Full-Time appointment
Location: Anywhere as long as it doesn't entail the remotest possibility of an LDR. (i.e. somewhere that doesn't involve flying/a greater than 3 hour drive.)
Role Description:
The Significant Other to the BHZ is a demanding but highly rewarding position for the suitable incumbent, the key aspect of which entails engaging in meaningful personal interaction with the BHZ so that a mutual sense of fulfilment, contentment and happiness can be attained by both parties. The position is ideal for an independent, self-assured and confident personality, although it is imperative that self-interest and ambition not be put before all else. The role requires an applicant that is genuine, self-aware, and appreciative of the fact that who they matter to (and who matters to them) is what matters most in life.
Key Responsibilities:
* Making the BHZ laugh
* Being a friend and companion to the BHZ
* Being a voice of reason to the BHZ (as necessary)
Education:
* Experiential, with a realistic worldview and mature perspective on life being pre-requisites.
Competencies:
* A quick-witted and sophisticated sense of humour
* A sharp intellect capable of engaging in intelligent and wide-ranging conversation
* A working knowledge of the cost and benefit of compromise
* A considerate, sensitive and patient personality
* A love of the outdoors and going on mystery tours
* An appreciation of good wine (with the ability to explain the finer points to the BHZ)
* The ability to read something written in the acronymic 3rd person without thinking that the BHZ is a completely egotistical moron
Remuneration:
* The affection and devotion of a good oke/the BHZ
Disclaimer:
* It all comes down to chemistry and attraction
