About Me

ME: I am a smart, strong, independent, generous, passionate and competitive woman. I love a good adventure. I tend to look for the good in everything. I am cognizant that life is about living, and for me that means taking the time to slow down and be present in the moment. Love live music; it's the melody that first attracts me but it is the lyrics that make me fall in love with a song. I enjoy most genres of music; alternative, indie, singer-songwriter, folk, classic rock, jazz, blues and I have even been listening to a bit of new Country which is out of character for me. I’ I describe myself as having an hourglass figure, just a tad too much sand in the bottle for my liking, so I am a work in progress. Other interests include travel, hiking, art and cultural events, unfettered conversation, playing drums, cooking, and quality time spent with my friends and family.YOU: Obviously, chemistry seems to trump all, and quality trumps quantity in my book. I'm not about juggling multiple men I'm tepid toward (which is a disservice to all involved). I realize that mutual "rock your world" chemistry is quite the elusive thing, but I know it is possible. The following are characteristics/qualities I would desire to find in the man I would ultimately want to share my time with – not all are requirements. There could be some magical combination. Witty and educated, can talk on a myriad of subjects Great sense of humor is a mustSees things from a variety of perspectives and is open minded Listens to me and values my opinionsKnows how and when to take risksGenerally sees the glass as half fullThoughtful, passionate, spontaneous, curious, comfortable and quietly confident Young at heart and understands the importance of playShares similar interests and has some cross over with my musical tastesTells me I’m beautiful even when I might not be having the best dayUses terms of endearment liberally, yet genuinelyNot afraid of PDA, will hold my hand, hug and kiss me, in private will throw me down on the sofa, in the kitchen or in the bedroom in the heat of the moment and make love to me with wild abandonKnows my family and friends are important and supports those other relationships in my lifeCooks, knows something about wine and good food, strives to eat healthy Balances self needs with the needs of othersLikes to travelTries new things just becauseAsks and sometimes tells me what he wants, can be directive at timesCan relax and hang out at home having an uncomplicated “us day”– willing to express self in a variety of mediumsDesires happiness for self and othersDoes his own thing from time to time and not totally reliant upon me for existenceLets me dress and wear my hair as I like though he won’t shy away from telling me when I look like crapWill stare into my eyes for hours, loves to kiss and does so, wellWill indulge my whimsy and find it amusingCan guide me to different ways of thinking and decisions, without conking me over the head Not afraid of difficult conversations, willing to let me know if I have done wrong, been hurtful or insensitive, so I can learn to make better choicesMakes time for intimacy and cuddling, preferably upon waking and when we go to bed at night, as our schedules allowCan be strong for me when I just need to rest my head on his shoulder Looking for a guy whose crazy fits with my crazySomeone who just wants to be with me in all my glory, accepts me as is, who sees all my potentialMy intent on my profile indicates that I would like to have a relationship, however, I don't believe in jumping into anything too quickly. I'd like to meet people, see if we click, perhaps make some friends along the way, and should I stumble across the man for me I think we will both know when that happens. I consider myself a Hopeful Romantic - loving the idea of love, yet firmly living in reality. I still see the world full of possibilities. And for the man that might be my match; I can no longer offer you all of my firsts, but I can offer you all of my lasts.Bottom line, if you are relatively attractive or even if you are drop dead gorgeous, have an infectious personality, can flash a wickedly captivating smile, are for the most part happy, have never been incarcerated, aren't on meds for any new-age psychological ailment, and can take all this with a grain of salt, give me a shout - because I'd truly love to hear from you. I believe a first meeting should allow us the opportunity to talk, listen, and learn about each other so we can see if there is some sort of spark. I really don't know how I feel about online dating as it feels a bit unnatural. Not all senses are present and you really cannot get a good idea about the each other till you meet in person. In this day and age I understand the importance of being cautious for safety sake but I don't want a long term online dating experience (only chatting and sending messages online, or having a lengthy phone relationship). At some point we need to meet face to face. If the conversation is great or even good, if our time together seems to flow and not feel pressured, if we leave not wanting the conversation to end we should arrange a 2nd meeting - the real first date. If the opposite is true and you don't think I am a good fit for you, I'd prefer for you just to be upfront with me, and I'll do the same. My feelings won't be hurt - online dating sites are nothing more than an introduction service. The way I see it is we are all here at a cyber space party mingling, and maybe we happen to bump into someone that catches our eye and we begin a dialogue. So the first meeting is really the live version of continuing that dialogue to see if we mesh. It's all good.If you think we might be a good fit or you would like to get to know me, please reach out and let's start with a chat and take it from there. Best luck in your search!

    Looking for: man. In age: 47-57

    I am thinking that I need to change my headline....to me an honest relationship.... posting pictures that are more than 3 yrs old is not honest, a lot can happen in 3 yrs, I know because I am a woman and trust me I know what can happen to someone in that length of time. Does that make me a vain person? No, I just think if you start out being dishonest, with an old picture, then it will continue on in a relationship. I am not looking for someone to take care of me, financially, emotionally, or physically, I can do all that by myself. I am looking for an honest and sincere relationship! I am an honest hard working, supportive, very sarcastic at times, and loyal woman and I am seeking someone who enjoys a challenging (at times) relationship....NO DRAMA...updated ***I enjoy boating and fishing, and yes I can drive a boat and bait my own hook..lol I really enjoy spending time with friends and family, BBQ's on the beach or at home, teaching the younger ones how to bake or cook. I enjoy football, to me it is the best sport ever...I watch every game I can...my FAV team is the Steelers!!! I absolutely Love to read...anything in print... I do my best to exercise or work out a couple of times a week, I believe in keeping myself in shape and looking good. That does not mean I am high maintenance, I will crawl under a truck and help you change the oil or change my own tire, I clean up well and can put on a gown and attend a formal function and hold my own with others. I adapt very well to all situations and am willing to try almost anything once....well maybe not....not into skydiving lol....I would never jump out of a plane, it's still flying so no reason to....So get up with me and we can see where we go from here.

    Looking for: man. In age: 47-57

    Divorced. No kids. A dog that's my pal :) I'm close to my family and friends. I love the beach. Any beach. I've worked in the legal field for over 10 years. I enjoy movies, dinners, sight-seeing, theater, live music, dancing, working out...what else? Oh, shopping (it's a girl thing). I'm looking to meet a good guy who encompasses probably all the things you're looking for in a woman. My pictures are recent and cheesy because I got messages asking for full-length photos...so there you have it. I will probably look back on this and be mortified. Feel free to send a message : ) Coffee, drink...something that works for both of us.
