About Me

***Update:I first joined this site a few years back while I was separated; I think mainly because I was lonely and wanted new people to talk to. Then my husband and I worked things out and I stopped logging in. Sadly, he passed away about 6 months ago, but at least the sparks in our marriage had come back and we had some special times before I lost him. I've only been back on here for a week or so. Not even sure I should be here, but I know he would want me to have male companionship of some kind. So here I am.The diversity of those on this site fascinates me to no end. There are so many differences in personalities and interests, yet all sharing at least this one thing in common by being on here. People sure are interesting. :-) I hope to make some new friends while here. If I initiate contact with you through the site’s ***, I have read your profile and something you’ve written has caught my attention. I do, on occasion, write to someone that I already know will not be interested in me as a potential match (some of you fellas are more specific than others when describing what you’re looking for), or vice versa. Don’t assume my intentions are anything other than an appreciation of some part of you. Chances are, I honed in on your great sense of humor and thought I’d enjoy chatting with you, want to compliment you on your excellent profile-making skills, or am curious and/or interested to learn more about some content in your profile.Now on to an attempt to describe myself……I hold back opening up to someone until I feel comfortable with them…sometimes that happens quickly, sometimes it takes awhile and sometimes it’s just not gonna happen.I am not outgoing, but I’m not an introvert either. I love meeting and listening to people, yet until someone gets to know me, they usually think I’m shy. I tend to be one of the more quiet ones in a group setting. That’s because I’m trying to hear what everyone else has to say. If you’re looking for “the life of the party” type of gal…I’m not her. More likely, I’m one of her dearest friends though.I love music…just about any kind. Always have. Always will. I can’t imagine a life without it. I have a deep respect and admiration for musicians (and a bit of envy). I will listen to anything at least once.I love animals…especially the furry kind.If I’m with friends…I’m usually having fun, regardless of what we are doing or where we are at. I enjoy both indoor and outdoor events/excursions/whatever else you care to call them. If you’re with the right person ANYTHING can be fun!I love road trips, preferably unhurried. I like taking time to stop and see the little things that aren’t necessarily mentioned in any tour guide and watching people along the way, and hopefully hearing their stories. I’ve never been able to work any world traveling into my budget, but if my sister ever wins the lottery (because I don’t play, and she promised to share if she ever wins big LOL), there are so many places I’d love to see!Some of my turn-offs:LiarsCrueltyMeaniesFakesFreeloadersRacistsClosed MindsCheatersControl FreaksHatersHomophobesInsecurityTo find the key to my heart you will need to be genuine, young at heart, well-mannered, loving, self-sufficient (I won’t be your maid, mommy or bank), honest, kind, have smiling eyes and a sense of humor (if you make me laugh, you’re halfway there).I don’t understand the concept of people “looking for a long-term relationship”. That is not something you find…IT finds you. If it’s going to happen, it’s going to happen, whether you want it to or not, AND not on your own personal preplanned timeline, but when it’s the right time for IT. I think some people get so caught up in the ‘looking’ that they forget to cultivate the friendships that could have been growing. One, of which, may have eventually blossomed into the exact thing they were looking for all along, but never end up finding due to their own haste and lack of patience. Look, if you feel the need to, but don’t throw away the friends you meet along the way.May you find joy in your life, Peace of mind, and laughter in your heart. Thanks for stopping by. xoxo I have not had a first date in years. No, make that decades!Open to suggestions. It seems obvious that it should be someplace we'd be able to talk and see if we're connecting at all. I suppose it would also depend on how much we had already talked on the phone or *** and forth. This is too generalized....to many unknowns for a definitive answer.

    Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 48-58

    I am a young 51 year old.....no rocking chair on the porch for this girl....yet. I’m looking for someone who share the same interests as me. Let’s start with a friendship and see where it goes from there. I have a great sense of humour and enjoy going out to dinner, movies, theatre, drives and spending time outdoors, especially in the summer. I also enjoy a quiet night in both of us preparing a meal, red wine and listening to music. My family is very important to me. I spend as much time as I can with my 2 beautiful daughters and other family members. I love to travel but haven’t had a chance to do much and hope to do some in the future."Either get busy living, or get busy dying.” - Shawshank Redemption.Hope to hear from you soon. Surprise me :o)

    Woman. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Capricorn.

    Looking for: man. In age: 52-62

    A little about me...Artist/teacher and nature lover looking to meet men in my age range with some similar interests and the desire to be part of a close relationship. I have been teaching art at the same school for years. I can play and work on my own art. I would like to find a partner to share life's adventures with and develop a close relationship. I would like to have intimacy and passion back in my life.Some of my favorite activities are creating art, gardening, birdwatching, nature study, kayaking, hiking, biking and visiting museums. I like almost any type of music, classical, blues, rock, jazz, and world music. I love to read and usually have a book that I am engaged with. I have been known to enjoying watching sports, though I am not an avid fan. I have done some traveling in Europe and the US and would like to do more.I believe it is important to give back to the community. I have served on local boards and participate in volunteer work.I am blessed with great family and friends, and a lovely home by the sea. I have lots to be grateful for, but I am missing that close connection with a partner. Take a chance and contact me, maybe we will find the chemistry that is hard to define with words, but we know in our hearts. About the one I'm looking for...a fit and active individual with interests and time to build a relationshipprefer well educated and politically liberalYou should message me if you:have some similar interestlove the outdoors and naturelike the arts and cultureare intelligent and curious and like to think and be challengedhave an open heart and the ability/desire to be part of a close relationship based on mutual trust, respect,and lovelive somewhat nearby... other side of the country/world makes it difficult to get to know another person even if they are a good matchSense of humor is also a big plus! :-) Something relaxed and informal:like getting to know someone over a cup of coffee or glass of wine.

    Woman. 54 years old. Zodiac sign: Pisces.

    Looking for: man. In age: 51-61

    Looking for my ‘partner-in-crime’.........A riding companion....A best friend......A confidant........A dance partner........I’m an independent, confident, easy going person out to find my new best friend.You probably should like to dance, if we’re out and the music is playing, I’ll be the first on the dance floor, and possibly the last off.Going out for dinner, or staying in cooking – it doesn’t really matter as it’s all about the company you keep that makes the experienceIf you own a motorcycle – all the better – I love the open road, wind blowing in your face, riding nowhere in particular, it’s not about the destination but all about the ride – riding is one of my passions – it doesn’t get any better than that. There’s a saying “Only a biker knows why a dog hangs his head out of the car window” – how true it is!At the end of day, if you have your health and you’re happy, that’s all that really matters.P.S.: Drop me a message if interested. A "wants to me you" notification will not likely get a reply from me.If you seriously want to meet, send me a message, say hi, make some comment to show interest."Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - strawberries in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WHOOOOOOO HOOOOOOO, What a Ride" A first meet 'n greet over a drink and see what happens
