| Speaking about relationships - a complex topic | |
Wake up refreshed. Walk to work. Do some work. Go for a walk at a pleasant temperature with soft clouds and a stiff breeze. Eat some nice unhealthy food. Watch some football. Call with family. Have quiet time alone with a partner listening to their day/conversation, and focussing on pleasing them. Get a good night’s sleep to repeat the day again.
I have several, but none strike me as particularly odd and none that would pick me out from a crowd as especially weird. I dress very plainly. I act generally quite quiet and speak softly unless it’s on a topic of interest. I live pretty minimalistically (ironic that the word for it is that long!).
I don’t know what you (reader/future-partner) are looking for in life-partners. I also cannot comment on what living with myself or just being around me is like without sounding biased, so I asked those who know me best and put their answers in the below table. They are all happy to give more details on request. I had no influence in what they said other than setting 3 rough categories and a character limit - I forbade myself from editing. They all submitted these independently of each other (to my knowledge) and they all came at it from their own unique relationships/histories with me. All information is accurate (in their opinion) at the time of their review (c. October 2025). All I consider to be at least good friends who I have immense trust in (although one slightly less now I’ve seen their review! 😆), but they probably like me too much and are therefore too positive.

| Female | 11 | University friend/flatmate (Former unrequited love of mine) | 3 | Learning lots and always having company - you read a lot and know a lot about random things, so conversation was very interesting. I definitely learnt more about darts! It’s hard to be lonely living with you, because you’re always down for a chat and are mostly very cheery (and if not, there is a good reason why). Similarly, you’re always down to go and do random things like visiting all the places on the Oxford Cluedo board. And you’d offer to cook if I’d had a long day which was lovely. | Occasionally too much maths chat (taking it beyond what I could understand so it got a bit boring). And sometimes you asked general questions about intimate topics, which I often didn’t mind, but sometimes found awkward. | Occasional piano music wafting around - you’re an excellent and humble pianist. And you emitted other noises such as strong reactions to darts/football which were sweet. Oh, and you didn’t require much storage space, since you cycled through a relatively limited wardrobe and were otherwise fairly minimalist! |

Once wrote to the producers of custard cream spread to express discontent at discontinuation (rephrased as “shows character trait of unusually strongly held opinions about certain specific things”, which might be more useful than the anecdote) |
| Male + Female | 4 + 3 | Colleague + Colleague's partner (both former-lodgers) | 1.5 + 1 |

So many instances of quirks (‘Andrew-ism’), not sure where to start:
|
| Male | 2 | Colleague (former-lodger) | 1 | Maths chat and interesting random chats are a positive. Got a very comfortable carpet and the sofa too. Parking’s good, and has Sky Sports Golf! | Chairs aren’t comfortable, and you need a special technique for opening the door. One time a parcel was delivered for the neighbour and you didn’t realise the whole weekend - unawareness, at times you’re in your own world (but being able to focus deeply is a good thing) | Definitely diet: there’s a lot of sugar and not much else. |
| Female | 0.5 | Former Dating Interest | 0.01 |

He washes his weetabix. With water. In the sink. And then eats it just like that. He claims he “just rinses it” or something to this degree (can’t recall the exact phrasing), but I’m not certain this is much better. On the bright side, he did this with no shame one of the first times he came to my house, and was (and remains) entirely unapologetic about it. If you are going to be the kind of man who does this, leaning in is probably good =). |
I try to avoid being photographed as best I can, so a representative sample is not possible. I detest wearing suits, but black & white is fine.
