What does an Urban Indian woman in her 50s seek from a relationship
Reena shares that she is looking for a partner and companion who is comfortable in his own skin…
I am now in my early 50s which I find is a time of discovery. A time when I understand myself better, feel more sure and confident about myself and my choices. What others say no longer bothers me. I am living life on my own terms. My career is at a satisfactory place, and I feel more financially and emotionally secure. There is also more clarity on what I want in life from a relationship. I have had my share of dating and relationships and hopefully have learnt from past mistakes. I have done some soul searching.
As I reflect on my younger self in my 20s and 30s, I find that what I wanted then in a relationship is different from what I want today. In my 20s the physical appearance, qualifications, job security, and family of my potential partner were paramount. Today, I veer more towards compatibility, companionship and a feeling of “coming home”. To be in a relationship that feels like the warmth of a cozy quilt on a cold winter day. I want to be with a partner who supports and respects me. A companion who is there for me and with whom I can share the ups and downs of life. A relationship where there is compatibility, understanding and good communication. We should have some similar interests and my partner should enjoy doing things that I like to do for example, travel.
I am looking for a partner and companion who is comfortable in his own skin, is mature, emotionally secure and a good human being. I am an independent woman and would like my partner to appreciate that and be willing to share togetherness and at times be willing to give space. It is a fine balance.
I am looking for someone to share the rest of my life with in an equal partnership. Am looking for commitment, someone I can rely on and be in a caring relationship. I am sure there are wonderful men out there…..who fulfill what I am looking for.
