About Me

I am a woman of simple needs and desires, who would love to form a relationship with someone who can treat a woman with respect and appreciation. I will bring friendship, fun, and engaging conversation to a relationship, and I am looking for a companion with similar interests. I am an educator so it goes without saying that I adore children and enjoy helping others. I am very creative, can make almost anything by hand, and I love to learn new things. Summer is my favorite season because everything is alive and beautiful, and there is so much to do, especially since there are festivals every weekend. I love to sit on a quiet pier and fish and can filet what I catch! I am active and I try to get out and run a few times a week to keep stress at bay and to center myself. And, I try to get in a few 5K runs per year just to keep myself motivated. I am not into the bar scene, but I do enjoy a good pub burger and microbrew occasionally. The night life does not appeal to me, but rather quiet evenings at home or walking around town just to enjoy the night time solace are what I enjoy most.**********************************************REVISION: PLEASE READ*********************************************************************************** Hello again, and thank you for making an attempt to find a real connection. After writing my first intro, I felt I really didn’t say what I wanted to convey about myself and my goal for entering the online dating scene. I was a bit hesitant with this format, as we all can say ANYTHING online, but the face-to-face thing, I have discovered, is quite different. First, and foremost, I am looking for a friend, and I am hoping you will become my best friend. I came out of a long term relationship and learned a lot about myself, my needs, and my desires. I am not looking for short term, roll-in-the hay type encounters. So, if that is your intention, I am not for you. I am looking for an active participant in my life, and that may include the rest of my life, if we make the connection that so many of us want so badly, but I have values and love and respect for each other comes first. I am not a fan of winter, but I do love those quiet evenings when all you can hear is the gentle sound of giant flakes coming down… I run a couple of times a week and strive to be in the “10,***steps a day” club. I took up running four years ago- bucket list thing-and find running to be a great stress reliever and I believe we all should eat healthy and stay active. I recently graduated from college-another bucket list thing-and I believe it is important to continue to learn as long as you can. It keeps you young, sharp, and well, engaged in the world. I work in kindergarten and I can color up a storm, and often come home with glitter littering my hair. I never run out of hugs, nor patience, and education is my passion and purpose in life. I am a simple, down-to-earth person. No drama, no mask, I am what I am, and I will not play games or try to give you a false impression. Like everyone, honesty and open conversation is key to a healthy, happy relationship. I am tired of doing things alone and seriously, life is meant to be shared. I want to be appreciated for what I bring to a relationship, as a compliment to you, not a competition to show I am better than you. I want you to teach me your loves in life, and I want to teach you mine. Resourcefulness is part of what I am. I know how to do many things on my own, and if I don’t know how to do something, I will figure it out eventually. However, the one thing I have trouble with is finding a person who has the same values and desires as I do. I am quite adaptable to many situations, and appearance is secondary to personality and moral standards. Simply stated, you treat people how you would like to be treated. We all have faults, and a certain amount of history (or baggage), but life is all about second chances, learning from our mistakes (hopefully), and being able to hike up our pants and move forward and be abetter person for the lesson learned. If you read through my intro, and you really feel like I am what you have been looking for in life, then by all means, please contact me. If you are only attracted to my face, well, I can guarantee that part of me will change as the years go on. However, my spirit and soul will always be a constant: warm, kind, and caring. Always. The best first date should be meeting at a public place where we can talk. A screaming bar scene is not as effective as a walk along the shore or through a park, or at corner pub/coffee shop table, in my opinion.

    I am not one who likes to be the center of attention unless, of course, the attention is coming from my man. However, I guess for the next 5 minutes I can step into the limelight . . . SOOOOOOOO YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!!! I consider myself to be intelligent with a funny, sometimes quirky sense of humor. I am affectionate, confident, honest and sincere. I am not into casual dating, playing games or one night stands. I am looking for that special person that will not walk behind me, not walk in front of me, but walk side by side with me through this journey of life. Though I like to joke around, I know when to be serious as well. My ideal partner is kind with a big heart. Honesty and respect are very important to me as well as trust. He is respectful, confident and affectionate. He takes care of himself mentally and physically (no illicit drugs). He can be silly at times but knows when to be serious. He loves to kiss and be kissed.Most importantly I do not take life for granted. Life is a gift and everyday should be treated as one.At this time, I would like to thank you for staying with me all the way to the end of this performance. I shall now step out of the limelight and return to doing what I was doing before speaking . . . reading YOUR profiles. By the way .... That is NOT a stripper pole in my photo!!! Lol!!!Diane Keep it very simple:Drinks with Appetizers, Drinks without Appetizers, Appetizers without Drinks (kind of dry).

    Have come to believe that when we were young and foolish... As we grew older, some grew together, some apart and some...sadly, not at all. Some of us were blessed with children and some were not. None of us went into a relationship thinking it would come to an end. Now we walk with great caution. We have all become wise with each passing year. Realizing that everything we have accomplished is not aways what makes us happy. Each person we meet gives as a larger perspective of whom we deserve and desire. I don't believe we make mistakes...our choices are learning curves. We've tried to convince ourselves in the past that we have to settle. Not so! Something is missing. The winkle in one's eye, the skip in one's step,taking a deep breath and knowing we are right where we belong. I teach young children and prepare them for pre-school and up. I am a NY State licensed and love what I do. My family and I are very close. My daddy just passed and he walked on water. He saw that we were all loved and taught us to go after everything we have ever desired. What we have here is borrowed. We can't take it with us when we leave so why be in debt up to your eyeballs. I have three fabulous sons 30, 28 and 14. I had lost my youngest sons father before he was born. We are not looking for a father for him...he has one...perhaps over time a friend and mentor. There are no visitation issues, no nasty court battles..just the peace of mind that he is in a better place. Most of you have raised your children. Please do not write if you do not think you could welcome my youngest into your life. I am not looking for someone to help me take care of him financially. We do well on our own that way. I have been most fortunate to have traveled during my married life in 9 states in 7 years. Louis, MO...4x4'd in the Mohave, ski'd at Big Bear and went to the Lauguna beach in Cali all in one day. It might have been my happy place... At each and every turn I met a new friend and have kept them in life. Friends and family are truely the assets we take with us here and beyond. Who is the man I am searching for? Is there a man out there that can talk the talk and walk the walk? Compassionate, kind, loving with a sense of adventure. Might you have a passion for life and live it to the fullest regardless of means? Might you have a positive attitude no matter what curves life has thrown you? Will you take my breath away and make me smile just at your very presence? Might you love boating, fishing or just floating on the St. I bait my own hook and clean my own fish! Kicking leaves as if you were a child again. Making snow angels and tossing a snowball while being playful. I would love to walk in the rain with you with no umbrella. Do you enjoy quiet one on one time with a special lady? Do you see beyond tomorrow? A weeks vacation or short weekend getaway. Just sitting by the beach listening the the waves crash. A relaxing night at home where we just pamper each other. Might you enjoy cooking a meal together in the kitchen? Believe myself to be a good cook. Hungarian, French and Irish Heritage. Lets see whom I choose....until then...may all of you find the woman of your dreams. I enjoy romance. ALL of it. Friends my age have given up and shut down...not me. Life is too short to be without love and all that comes with it. I have been lucky to have had lightening strike twice for me...hoping for a third. No, I have only been married once. If your looking for Barbie..I;, not her.. My figure is better than average but not athletic. My face is not that full...I sooo do not like pictues. I'll be waiting for you by the water. Though my profile says I do not drink...lucky if it is 3 raspberry margarita's a year. Not a snotty, stuck up ...just does nothing for me. To visit a bit and spend the day on the river or somewhere outside.
