About Me

Where are all the truly interesting men? The ones who can have intelligent conversations? They're certainly not talking to me. Lately I find myself running from dates *** trying very hard to get them. I mostly daydream. Yeah, I'm gun shy nowadays. I'm definitely not convinced this is the place to meet people... but I'm not meeting them anywhere else, either. I'm just me...I've never thought of myself as anyone particularly pretty or special. That doesn't mean I'm not worth a second glance. I am not tall and leggy. I'm not model material. I am, however, faithful and loving when given the chance. I've been single for six years now and had to pay my own way in most of the "relationships" I've been a part of, and many times I've had to pay for everything. I've been the one who's done all the traveling because it seems men these days either won't make sacrifices or they just don't want to come to my town. I did it without complaint, but I really can't afford that anymore. I've never been pampered or taken care of. And, yes, loneliness has taken is toll. I'm the woman all the guys call when they have a problem or get lonely. .. proving that I'm good for something...but they always choose to date someone else. I'm just like you. I have debts and I have faults, but I also still have a few dreams and a few years left. I'd rather not spend those alone. I'm looking for a shoulder to lean on, a hand to hold, someone to snuggle with, someone to love, someone who wants me to be his world. I'm loyal... and I'm just not comfortable dating more than one man at a time. .. but it seems like the men who come my way always want more than one woman. I don't play those games. And I won't play chase. If you can't communicate with me between dates and I don't hear from you for weeks at a time. ..I don't want or need you in my life. I'm the most comfortable with someone who's slightly offbeat with artistic tendencies. Someone who is sensual and can make me laugh...because I have a hard time laughing at myself. I'm not impressed with photos of guys at football games...if you're into football, you won't like me. I'm an artist who works with subcultures to produce work about their lifestyles. I use art as a research tool as well as a form of meditation and worship. I'm known for my work with bikers, veterans, male nudes, and dogs. My work has been featured in several magazines, and of course, I still want to make a career of it no matter how hard I have to struggle. I still dream of having a full time career in photography as a photojournalist. I will always be on the eternal quest to be a full time artist. I have an established career that I would like to resurrect; my art is very important to me. I want to make a difference. I want to be heard. And, yes, my work has been called controversial. But I won't change it for you...know that up front. There are no children and no exes in my life for you to have to deal with, but you will have to deal with the art. My camera is closer to me than most people are. It knows all my dreams and my secrets. I'm as home in a yoga class as I am in church and as comfortable in the middle of a group of bad ass biker boys as I am dressed to the nines at dog show grooming or showing dogs. You won't find me at the local bar, however, unless I have a camera around my neck because I'm there to take pictures. I don't hang out there, though I might go to hear a friend play music. I spent twenty three years teaching, and if I can find the right teaching position, I'll do it again. Right now I work as a legal assistant at a local law firm. I wish I had more time for art. I'm heavy into music. I paid my way through college on a vocal music scholarship, and I really wish I could get out and perform more. I satisfy that urge working with emerging bands and artists shooting promo pictures. Most of them don't know I sing too. What a shame, but I don't do a lot of bragging on my own voice. Sometimes I wish I did. I'm anything but typical. I don't fit in one certain niche or another, but I'm the same wherever I go. I'm funny, outgoing, bold, and at the same time scared of many of the things in life that others find easy to conquer. I love wearing leather. I can dress up or be casual. I don't like sports...unless it's a martial art. Age has slowed me a little. I used to spend fourteen hours a week in the gym, but nowadays, I struggle to maintain four or five. If I could work less, I'd still be a gym rat. I'm struggling to get back into shape, frustrated by a back injury and jobs that keep me working such long hours that I can no longer always get into the gym to work out. I want the old me back, and I'm trying to find her again...the gal that used to teach some of the toughest weight training classes in the gym. Maybe pride caused my fall...and now I'm rehabbing and embarrassed and having a hard time showing that I'm weaker than I used to be. The newest photos are the ones of me with glasses. The ones dressed in red were a couple of years ago...the person I'm struggling to become again. Yes, I could stand to drop 30 pounds. I don't like that fact any more than you do, and I don't sit around at night eating ice cream and donuts. Does anyone want to cheer me on? Better yet...get in the gym with me. I've often loved but have never found the love of my life. Likewise, I've never been anyone else's reason for existence. I'd like to know what that's like at least once in my life. I get emotionally involved quickly, and I give easily and often too much. I love animals of all kinds and have two dogs of my own. I used to train and show dogs competitively and dream of doing it again. I'm attracted to brains, beautiful eyes, shaved heads or thick or long hair, strong hands, and the things that make a man truly masculine. I'm especially charmed by a man who knows a bit about poetry and art and who can honestly be proud of what I do and who I am. I'm still waiting to experience the latter. Tattoos and piercings are welcome. I have a few discreet ones myself. Bodies are like wonderful pieces of sculpture to me. An effective communicator and a man with music and sympathy in his soul will find a special place in my heart. A spiritual side is a must. Must love dogs. Someplace quiet where we can have a cup of coffee after a meal and can concentrate on getting to know each other.

    Woman. 46 years old. Zodiac sign: Taurus.

    Looking for: man. In age: 43-53

    - would love to go there sometime.- hanging on the beach is a favorite pastime.The type of person I see myself with is someone who is compassionate, kind, loving, romantic, makes their ‘special’ person feel they are appreciated, intelligent, great sense of humor, spontaneous, loves to travel, fun and most importantly believes communication is the key to a great relationship!!I love to hang with friends, whether it is at happy hour, a sporting event or sitting around a campfire. I try to hit the gym 3 to 4 days a week and unwind in the evening by reading a good book with a glass of wine. For the first time, I’d meet you in a public place where it’s quiet enough so we could talk and get to know one another, such as a coffee bar or a wine bar.

    Great girl, looking for a warm, caring, compassionate guy. Would love to find someone who can be my best friend/ partner in life. I'd like to think of myself as a warm and caring person too. I have a good sense of humor and love a guy who can joke back and forth and know it's all in fun. I enjoy cooking, wine tasting, trying new foods/restaurants, being with friends and family. I'm just as comfortable staying in to watch a movie after a long work week or going out to enjoy a nice dinner, etc.... For exercise... mostly walking and at times working out at the gym. I'm more medium energy. Favorite foods: Seafood, Italian and eating healthy. Other things to know: Like to watch some sports and some travel. Trips to the beach and on rainy days, curl up and read a good book or watch a movie. I would like someone to have fun with when times are good and someone caring and supportive when times are challenging. Please be smiling in at least one pic. : ). And, no players please. Meet for coffee or a drink. No pressure, let's just enjoy some conversation!

    Woman. 46 years old. Zodiac sign: Leo.

    Looking for: man. In age: 43-53

    Looking to find someone to join me in the pleasures of life!I have a great family, a great career, and now need to find a great match.I am the luckiest mom in the world of two cool teenage children who are smart, flexible and realize that mom also needs her life.I guess you can call me a little bit of a cameleon.....exploring the world around me.Intellectually stimulating (my friends say that if you want an answer, then all you have to do ask me..kind of like google), I value the same in a man, particularly one who can challenge himself to see the world through different glasses. I am independant, that is too say, I can take care of my finances, my home and my committments, and believe that the best match for me would be a man who is in the same place financially. My weekends are usually not planned...I go with the flow.......really just about anything of that nature. Striving for a healthy lifestyle is important for me, and I keep healthy by eating well, exercise at the gym a few times a week...cycle locally when I can and walk..walk..walk...Although I love my career, I also appreciate the role of a good old fashionned homemaker. In that way I have very strong European morals...where family takes a big priority. I love to cook, and experiment in all types of cuisine..never a boring meal at home..(but I won't say no to a good peanut butter and jam sandwich)I have alot of love to give...and am very traditional on the merits of a stable relationship...used to my independance yes...but never a player!When I have the chance, I love to travel. I have visited the globe..mostly on my own...and have longed for a partner who can share that dream with me. A cup of coffee just to get to know each other (smiles and laughter permitted).
