My name is Tatiana, I am 52 years old. I decided that it's time to stop waiting by the sea for the weather and act, so I'm writing this letter.

I am a woman who knows exactly what she wants. And I want a real relationship, warmth and care. I'm tired of empty correspondence and "non-binding" communication. I am ready for a serious step: if we have common interests and mutual sympathy, I will not hesitate to visit you or I am ready to consider moving. Distance is not an obstacle for me if there is a decent man nearby.

I appreciate sincerity, honesty and inner strength. I love comfort, delicious food (and I can cook), quiet evenings and interesting trips. I think that at 52, life is just beginning, and I want to live it with someone who will be really good.

If you are also tired of being alone and are looking for a woman who is ready to be with you, not in words, but in deeds, write to me. I'd be glad to meet you.

I've often thought about how a man should be, for whom I'm ready to pack a suitcase and go to another city or even a country. And that's what I realized.

My ideal man is not a macho cover man or an oligarch. This is a person with whom I will feel calm and warm. He is between 50 and 70 years old, but age for me is not a number, but a state of mind. He may be gray—haired or balding, with wrinkles around his eyes - this only touches me, because it means he laughed a lot and lived a lot.

First of all, he is a person. He has his own interests, hobbies, perhaps a favorite job or business to which he is devoted. He is self-sufficient, but he is not closed to new feelings. He knows how to be alone, but he is tired of this loneliness and wants to share his life with a woman.

He's honest. With him, you don't have to guess what he really thinks. He speaks bluntly, but without rudeness. He keeps his word: if he promised to call, he calls, if he invited you to visit, it means he's really waiting.

He's caring, but he doesn't stifle you with his care. He remembers that I'm a woman, and it pleases him to give me a seat, give me a hand, open the door. But at the same time, he sees me as his equal — he respects my opinion, my desires and my personal space.

He has a sense of humor. He knows how to laugh at himself, doesn't take offense at jokes, and he can make me laugh when I'm sad. Next to him, even a rainy day becomes cozy.

He's reliable. I know that in a difficult moment he won't run away, won't be afraid of my tears or problems. He'll be there. And I want to be with him.

He appreciates simple pleasures: a delicious dinner, a long conversation over a cup of tea, watching an old movie together, a walk in the park or a trip to nature. He doesn't need mountains and extreme sports (although if he likes, I'll support him), he needs the warmth of human communication.

And most importantly, he wants a real relationship. Not virtual ones, not "let's see how it goes," but real ones. He's willing to take risks, willing to let me into his life, even if it's scary and unusual. He believes that at the age of 50, 60 or 70, you can start all over again.

If you recognize yourself in this description, write to me. I really want to meet just such a man.
