About Me

I'm retired but still full of spirit and silliness and think of myself as an individualist. My photos are recent and have been told I look quite sophisticated. It's how I look, NOT how I am. Actually, I'm very down-to-earth and unpretentious and prefer people who are the same. I was blessed to have inherited my Dad's sense of humor and you'll usually find me smiling or laughing at the absurdities of life. I usually make the best of things even when they don't go my way. I enjoy my home but like getting out, seeing new places and trying new things. I enjoy using my mind and have an interest in a wide variety of things. The things that make me most happy are very often the simplest things... time with friends, flea markets & yard sales (hoping to find an unexpected treasure), people watching, preparing a meal together (I'm a pretty good cook), going for a drive stopping for lunch at some charming spot we will find along the way. I've been single for a very long time and to tell the truth, I've never found the single life particularly satisfying. I enjoy being with others and what would make me most happy would be to find a parter I can love and cherish and share the joys life has to offer. I'm affectionate but not over-bearing, intelligent but not a know-it-all and I am considerate and thoughtful of others. There are many things I enjoy, but doing becomes delight when I can share it with the one I love. Honesty is most important and I treat others, including myself, with respect and fairness. Being able to share some of my interests with my partner is important to me but I think the most important thing to share is our values, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise when we disagree. I think it's also important to respect our needs for private time.I have a delightful dog, a Havapoo (Havanese/poodle) who goes by the name, Shana. She's 12 lbs, very sweet and calm, and all who meet her love her. My music tastes run from jazz, the old standards, to the classics. I've been singing jazz all my life and a couple of years ago decided to study the craft and learn proper singing technique to preserve my voice till death do us part. I love a good discussion on many subjects: (currents events, what's been happening in our lives, sharing something we have recently read, thought provoking or funny movies, musicals and documentaries. Having said all that, I think the most important things in a relationship are the values we share, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise if or when we don't agree and a respect for our needs for privacy. I am not a religious person but live my life with honesty, integrity and love. And after all is said and done, I'd love to meet someone who is kind, romantic, has some smarts, and is healthy with a healthy sense of humor and who lives within 50 miles of Portland. What's inside is more important to me than appearances although I must admit to finding excessive weight a turn-off.I think I'll end on that note and hope what I've written appeals to you.I prefer a first date to be very casual, meeting in a quiet, public place for coffee or perhaps to share a light meal. We'll get to know a bit about each other and share a few laughs. If all goes well we'll make plans to meet again. :-}

    I come from a very close family, I have very good values and morals of which I look for in a partner also, my ultimate goal is to be in a relationship, I am looking for someone that I can connect with and that shares similar values, I am a bit shy type of person but cool and easy to get along, I am outgoing, spontaneous and caring person. I love to travel around the world, I love socializing and trying new things in the city-but I am just comfortable at home listening music with a good book.Enjoy the time, keep it simple yet memorable and unforgettable,honestly, i dont like a guy who smoke especially on the first date.were going to restaurant or a quite place so that we can talk and get to know each other then we will watch a movie, if we both enjoy the company, then we will plan for a next date........

    Let's see according to this site there are certain things I should talk about "to be successfull and not waste your time"Hobbies - when I get the time and people to go with I like to go hiking and on road trips to places that i've never been to before or places I enjoy going to, I don't care if it's for a day or a few day's as long as you have good friends, laughs and a camera all is good. Traveling, when I have the money and time of course. I want to see the world and all the historical places in it, history is an amazing thing to see and whitness :)Goals & aspirations - I have no clue just yet, of course my goal is to live a long life and have love, family, friends and children in the future but i'd rather just see where life takes me than plan it all out step by step, where's the fun and surprises there.What makes me unique - first off everyone is unique, except for twins but even then there are some differences, what makes me unique however, well you tell me :)Music - I will listen to pretty much anything, I love music I don't know how to actually live without it because it's what's needed in life whether you're feeling sad, or happy, or **** there's a song for everything to bring you out of your funk or to celebrate your happiness.One extra thing if you're looking for a piece of ass move along I'm not interested stop messaging me for hook ups not gonna happen.Depends on the person and situation - you can't have a bad date, just bad a reaction to a situation. The one that puts most people at ease would be meeting at a coffee shop for some booze and conversation...wait that's not right, oh it's coffee you get at a coffee shop, my bad :)
