About Me

UPDATE (June ***: I recently retired early from UPS after 32 years...lucky me!! I've never let demographics rain on my parade when it comes to dating. I'm all about quality over quantity and I've learned to not limit that quest to my own zip code. Relocate? Absolutely! Summer home? Meet you for lunch, minus any expectations? Yes, please!I appreciate hearing from you; if I don't get a chance to respond, I wish you the best in your search. (Not sure how others handle this, but if it doesn't look like a true match, it seems better not to initiate a conversation than to start one and then cut it off. My intention is to be respectful and kind.)I have been widowed for over ten years & have moved on with life quite happily. Since then I have enjoyed committed relationships and look forward to the next. I'm drawn to confident & competent men. Strong character draws me to you like a magnet. I want a secure man's man who is passionate about life! Someone that I can play with, have fun with, share with, laugh with (very important), partner with, and love/grow with. I am going to find a truly extraordinary man to create special memories with, unless of course he finds me first. (smile) I'm realistic when it comes to expectations, but I still dream large and wake up happy every day! I'm well balanced, savvy & completely void of hang-ups. I should be nothing but a delight to you!Life's curveballs have proven to me how precious life really is....therefore, I try to live it to its absolute fullest focusing on the present with an eye towards a promising future. I embrace today with an abundance of emotional depth. I live and feel deeper, love hard and listen longer more than most. Life has been wonderful, yet I continue to wake up each morning recognizing that the best is yet to come. When I find him, he'll be ready for a real relationship and an imminent life change. He'll want me both in & out of the bedroom and in his life today, not just someday.I am a TRUE LADY and I love being a woman!! I am decidedly feminine and fiercely loyal. I'm on this site for all the right reasons. You and I are both looking for a real connection. One that takes us beyond cyberspace, gains momentum and is unstoppable by either of us. You will embrace and cherish it should it come your way because you have learned, as have I, that the type I'm referring to is rare. I believe the most important prerequisite for finding a satisfying intimate relationship is wholeheartedly wanting one. Many say that is what they want, but are not willing to take the risk of heartache, afraid of change, fear of opening themselves up emotionally. Contrary to that, once I give my heart or commit to anything, I see it through to a successful place and grow from the lessons learned along the way.At this stage in my life, I am very comfortable with who I am and who I am not. I have readily accepted life and learned well what qualities I value and will hold tight to them and never let them go. I believe that laughter and conversation are at the root of all successful long-term relationships, as well as honesty and trust. I am ready to work collaboratively on whatever it takes to protect the bond of real love, for I'm secure in knowing that anything of true value is worth working for and will require a few bold and courageous decisions. I also know the extreme importance of chemistry...that magical, elusive quality that simply can't be described but rather felt. I love to touch and be touched often. No secrets and lots of intimacy!I like to treat a man like he's the most miraculous, wonderful creation on earth. Many pleasures and benefits result. I've learned a few things here. When I find him, we'll have a strong connection whether together or apart. I want to attract the man that meets the depth of my heart's capacity to love. I fuel romance automatically. It's innate, that switch is always on. I'm looking for a man who is driven by his own passions, but wants to make me one of them... I know he's out there. I'm a great catch if you have the right glove. I am not here to play games, rather, I seek a quality person & strong chemistry to develop something vibrant & real. I believe in the power of attraction. Just be yourself and I'll do the same. We'll find each other.I vaguely recall one musing that it were far better to enter the arena and be bloodied, scarred and even defeated... than to languish on the sidelines ever the spectator, timidly never seizing the opportunity, never knowing if success might have been yours. Physical and emotional intimacy are equally important... I'm looking for a lover who is also my best friend. Someone who both inspires and challenges me. I offer no less. I'm willing to take risks to find that very special person. I absolutely adore men, everything about them, but ultimately I'm looking for one remarkable man to be the focus of my adoration. The thought of falling in love makes me smile every day.Regarding matters of the heart, I agree with Harry when he tells Sally, "When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible." I have come to know that some of my happiest years lie ahead of me and I look forward to sharing each one of them. Although my life is very fulfilling in itself and all I have to do is look around me to realize just how blessed I truly am, I am still very much aware that I'm missing one extremely important ingredient. The type of love I am holding out for will conquer anything in its path.It's all about the journey....so let's have some FUN and see what develops!

    Woman. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Cancer.

    Looking for: man. In age: 52-62

    I moved to AZ a little over 3 years ago and am loving my new adventure! There are so many fun things to do here.I enjoy going on day trips to explore the state. I really love Out of Africa Wildlife Park. I like movies, most types, with the exception of horror, blood filled ones. I like most music, country and rap not so much, concerts and catching local musicians at the many outdoor events. I've enjoyed the Renaissance Fair, great place to people watch. I read voraciously, anything from detective novels to self help. Libraries and book stores are a favorite hang out. I love to cook for friends and family. Plays, museums and the arts of all types. I even enjoy car races:) I love to go and "do" as well as enjoy quiet time at home.I have a dry sense of humor and can also be silly. I have been known to bust out a song that a particular situation makes me think of and no I can't sing, which is part of the fun of it. I am able to laugh at what life throws at us as well as laugh at myself. I think it's important to savor the moments. I can also be serious, intellectual conversations are great. I am looking for a man with strength and kindness. Someone who would accept me for all of my positive attributes as well as my faults and imperfections . Accepting me for who I am not for what he might want me to be as well as me accepting the same in you:)But then I suppose that is what any of us is looking for. Someplace where we'd be able to talk and get to know each other.

    My hobbies include but, not limited to.. biking, running, dancing, kayaking, meeting new people, swimming, camping, and gardening. I love to spend time garding. I can cook. At least, my friends think so. (You got to love friends.) If you can't tell I enjoy the out doors. Not quiet there, yet. Only up to 6. Yes I have a job. That I like. On the subject of entertainment- I enjoy music. All types. When it comes to movies. I am a girlie girl. I love the tear jerker type but, fair is fair I do like a good drama. I am easy going, love to laugh, and I can work the nine to five, "bring home the bacon" and still be in that little black dress when needed. I am open. But, please lets not do skydiving or bungee jumping. ;-) We can save those adventures for another date.
