About Me

I'm ready to try this again! Like many of you my mood changes as to whether I want to use this venue for dating? I prefer to meet a man in a natural social setting, but let's face it, most of us don't run into "new" potential partners/love matches as we hang out with the same group of friends over and over. I undoubtedly will edit this profile soon as I just erased all the old stuff. As a young girl I learned that I got a lot of attention from the boys if I could compete athletically with them. I guess that somehow carried on into adulthood. Don't get me wrong, I'm not out to "beat" a man at his own game, I just want to be able to hold my own and have him happy to play with me. Growing up on a dead end street with only boys to play with I threw dirt clods, played with dump trucks in the mud by the water faucet outside the house, played baseball and football in our yards and pastures, rode horses and rode bikes all day until mom called us in...As I have gotten older, I have learned to place a huge value on my "girlfriend" relationships.I LOVE to dance and I have great rhythm, I used to country dance in the 90's about two to three times per week, but now just on occasion. I can east coast swing, do a basic salsa and very basic west coast. I also spent many years of my life playing volleyball and recreational softball.I enjoy mostly country, pop and alternative music and have an appreciation for many other types. Cooking in the kitchen together is a turn on... that touch or special look in the eye that only the two of you are aware of as you pass each other in a room is super special. Of course I enjoy all the normal things that couples do, like wine tasting and travel. I was an exchange student out of HS and love learning about other cultures and our own history.Have you ever had someone in your past that was so special that your eyes still light up today when you remember them? You were like two ships passing in the night and you're glad you did, even though your pathways took you in different directions? Sitting/laying quietly together on a beach while one or both of you are reading a book. Him showing me how to surf... Kissing while sitting on a hammock in the yard, sipping wine and sharing the taste of that wine between your interlocked lips. Taking a spontaneous train trip to ??? Taking care of details, like going to the passport office, just so we could be together... Eating at a place that becomes a favorite for the two of you because of the smiling faces of the servers and the experiences the two of you shared there... might be a beach eatery, hole in the wall, or a fancy smanshy place. Of course, admiring him for his special talents that you don't possess yourself. The only thing that mattered was spending time together.......It was suggested to me once to read the book "The Five Languages of Love" which I did... You can even take a computerized test before reading the book (before you have enough knowledge to slant the results of the quiz) that helps you discover what love language you personally speak and what your unique needs are. My results were extremely accurate. What matters most to me is.... 1) Quality Time (as evidenced by the above paragraph of what I like***and 3) Physical Touch and Words of Affirmation tied. 4) Acts of Service 5) Receiving gifts P.S. I think "smart" is very sexy and if that smart is packaged together with an athletic man, then I'm all in! Meet in public at a restaurant or lounge... Second date??? The possibilities are limitless!

    Woman. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Libra.

    Looking for: man. In age: 52-62

    I am looking for a kind, sincere, man who likes to spend time with the woman he is with. I do not want a drug user, alcoholic, or violent personality type. Hopefully, we will have alot in common. No intimate encounters or hang outs please. I am looking for a longterm relationship. No one night stands. I am not a person that is hard to please but, I would like a relationship based on more than just sex. I want a man that enjoys laughing, sharing views on life, good conversation, many things that we can both enjoy as well as intimacy. I want to have a oneness with my partner that other's will envy.Update: Please no folks with rigid lifestyles. When I said Im flexible I meant mentally lol. Someone who thinks outside the box. Go out to eat or meet for something to drink and get to know each other. Love walks in the park or picnics by the lake. Or just enjoy renting a movie.

    Woman. 54 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 51-61

    I'm glad your reading my profile, this is hard enough to do!! lolI am a happy, successful, well adjusted and loving woman looking for my best friend and mutual respect relationship. Love life and very active! I have a great sense of humor, love to laugh and just go with the flow! I have a crazy life so you need to be flexible with your schedule. Alot of my time off is in the middle of the day, so it would be nice if my guy is in a position where he is able to do that...not a deal braker :))Please, I am an "old fashioned" kind of lady with values, so if your looking for a one night stand, you can stop reading now. It's hard enough for me to call a man, I was taught a lady does not do that. The new dating is taking a little getting used to!I love to walk/run in the morning, eat healthy but not a fanatic, enjoy time with friends and family and getting to know new people! Lately I have been into country music again and love to dance, but I enjoy all kinds...except grunge!! Anything by the water is a favorite! I don't know how to ski, but I do fish, scuba and float! lol I am as confortable in an evening gown as I am in my favorite jeans and tshirt! No time or energy for someone that is not secure enough in themselves to be who they really are upfront.....My ideal guy would probly be a native Texan, because I don't think there is anything sexier than a guy in a white shirt, jeans and boots....well, ok, their leathers on their Harley?? Yeah baby! My ideal first date would just be a quiet romantic restaurant with a gentleman where we can share a meal and get to know each other :)
