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!

    I am vivacious with lots of energy, I have integrity, am very exotic, sexy and sensual, powerful, honest, loyal, magnetic, glamorous, passionate, sweet, courageous, intelligent, athletlc, communicative, very creative and talented, musical, funny, extroverted, feminine and sensitive but with an edge (is it possible?). I'm open-minded, into the healing arts and yogic / Vedic philosophies, comical, a great dancer (with a dancer's body and incredible legs), soulful and deep . I'm multi-lingual (Spanish, Portuguese and working on my (African) French, then I'll tackle Italian. I have great rhythm, and I'm committed to happiness and FUN. I love to dance and sing Salsa and am grateful that I make my living doing what I love which is playing percussion, singing, dancing and also as a certified foreign language interpreter. I feel blessed to be following this path, to be living it and am excited to see where I'm lead next. I've also been told that I light up a room when I enter. Basta con los adjectivos! (Enough with the adjectives!). I think I've tooted enough of my own horn for now. I'd love to develop a partnership with a man who is honest, financially responsible, has integrity, is masculine, loveable, and knows how to have lots of fun, fun, fun. (More adjectives). I'd love for you to choose where we would go. I like the man to lead just like when I'm salsa dancing. Surrender is a sweet thing. I also love surprises.

    Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 48-58

    Have to start at the beginning...chat, meet, date, see where it goes.....the kiss is crucial.In the meantime......lets just get out and have some fun! I'm open to trying anything you enjoy and hope you'd do the same for me. Going out once in awhile to see a local band is a treat. Love rock, blues, and appreciate musical talent. I don;t watch much TV. I'm quite comfortable at get-togethers with family and friends as I'm from a big family. I do appreciate an occasional romantic dinner out yet I am equally happy cooking or grilling at home together, stirring the sauce as we share a good bottle of wine or (a cold beer!). I'm looking for someone with whom I can share fun, physical activities like biking, hiking, walking...you get the idea. I don't expect to be entertained. I just want to spend quality time with you. Even mundane activities are best shared with someone we care about.I'm a little on the independent side, yet flexible, outgoing, emotionally stable, intelligent and considerate. I'm employed, a home owner and responsible. Zero ex drama and hope your situation is the same. I miss them dearly but we visit as often as we can and keep in touch via ***, etc. I prefer to meet someone who does not have young children. I love kids and look forward to being a grandma someday (emphasis on someday lol) but I'm past raising kids and your focus will be elsewhere as it should be, on your kids.I support my "home" teams; Something you might not expect from me; I learned to ride a motorcycle (on my bucket list) although I don't have a bike or a tattoo. It was cool to accomplish but doesn't define me.What I find attractive in a man:1) Confidence2) Passion3) Respect4) Intellectual curiosity5) Sense of humorWhat I want in my relationship with you:1) To be able to trust you physically and emotionally2) Your consideration, thoughtfulness and kindness3) You to be my equal partner and best friendGentlemen, do yourself a favor and remove your hat and sunglasses and ask someone else to take a close up photo that accurately depicts you. Please give us something to go on in terms of your "type". Inquiring minds want to know.....by the way, I try to respond to all who inquire. Forgive me if I don't do so promptly. And it never hurts to say "no, but thank you". Its good karma. If you have stuck with it this long, please take note if you are under 45 or over 60. I'm flattered, thank you but I prefer men relatively close to my age. I apologize if that sounds offensive as its not my intent. I believe you are best advised to make a life with someone closer to your age. Make every moment count toward your goals and relationships. They are golden! I wish you well. I seek to experience you in real time, over time as its my intent to be a life long learner. Please contact me when you've come to the point in your life where you realize that an endless stream of sexual experiences is no longer satisfying and in fact, has become boring and you now understand its more challenging and satisfying to attempt to seduce one woman, night after night, year after year, than a different woman every night."Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you was beyond my control."- Unknown
