About Me

Hi! I'm starting to understand how those mail order brides felt! Every time I come on this site, I feel like I’m flipping through a catalog – “Hmmm… I like that model – but, can I have these options, too?”I’m the real thing – my photos and data are current. I’m 99.9% natural – no additives and no preservatives. I’m top of the line, so no options necessary! Complex? Certainly, but in a good way! (Think about the amazing bouquet of a fine wine, or the complexity of a rose or peony.) I’ve been blessed with myriad talents and abilities and have had the opportunity to use them throughout my life. Some of them may surprise you!I expect the third third of my life to be the best yet, and would like to find a new friend and companion with whom I can share the adventure. I'd like to find someone in whom I can confide, who wants the best for me, and brings out the best me - and for whom I can do the same. If things evolve into a longer term relationship, that's great but I believe a strong friendship is the foundation. I’m not lonely or desperate - I just miss the friendship and companionship of a great man.I'm adventurous and love to be outdoors, doing almost anything which gets the sun on my face and the wind blowing through my hair - hiking, camping, sailing, or driving the twisty mountain roads (sorry - I’m not much interested in going fishing, and I'm not interested in decorating the back of your Harley). I enjoy traveling and exploring new places - I've been to all 50 states, and a few countries, but I have many more to "cross off my list" and am anxious to begin. I'm equally comfortable in hiking boots and high heels, so I won't be intimidated by activities requiring one or the other. (And yes - I can keep up with you!)I enjoy the arts - primarily the performing arts. Music is a big part of my life, but I'm probably the only person in the entire world who doesn't have a personal playlist. I do like most music other than rap, techno, heavy metal and like genres. I also enjoy theater, concerts and museums.Cooking is something else I enjoy and I hope you do, too - can I be your sous chef? Watching a man in the kitchen making a great meal is amazing. Quiet evenings watching the sunset or a crackling fire are wonderful, too, and I am content with quiet time to read or just be together (I don't have to fill the silence). I'm also happy to watch sports with you, although my favorites are football, baseball and ice hockey. You'll just have to forgive me if I get a little vocal during a game... I'm educated, intelligent and smart (yes, there's a difference), generous, compassionate, fun, amazing (that one courtesy of my friends), and optimistic. Well, you get the idea... I believe in continual learning, and am an avid reader often having ***books going at the same time on a variety of topics. I enjoy learning new things and will try just about anything (okay, I'd have to give serious thought to bungee jumping). I hope you like to learn too, as there are still many things I'd like to master. What can you teach me? Better yet, what can we learn together?I'm a Christian (though not "religious" – not under the law) and strive to live my life in a way which is pleasing to God. I also tend to be socially and politically conservative, so if this makes you uncomfortable, we're probably not a match. Sorry... Enough of the “I” word My special man has a great sense of humor, is intellectually interesting and curious, professionally and financially successful, possesses unfailing integrity, is focused on others' well being above his own, is passionate about life, and is a gentleman in every sense of the word (e.g. dependable, considerate, gracious, sensitive to others). You are a learner and teacher, strong (in all ways), Christian, self-confident (though not self-focused or self-absorbed), generous, kind and gentle. And…please don’t be intimidated by a strong, smart, capable woman…Does this describe you? If so, please let me hear from you...Cheers!P.S. If you are one of the select few I have added to my favorites list and you haven't heard from me, it's because I haven't had time to craft a witty and clever message to you - I just didn't want to "lose" you in the "ocean". Please feel free to reach out first if you think there's a possibility of a match. Don't be shy - you're on my list for a reason! Let's explore the possibilities...If I remove myself from your favorites, please don't take it personally - I'm flattered, but I just don't think we'd be a good match. First meeting - Please! anywhere but Starbucks (feels like a business meeting!). Coffee is fine - maybe an independent, quirky little place? How about ice cream?First date - Hmmmmm.... surprise me :-)

    Woman. 52 years old. Zodiac sign: Gemini.

    Looking for: man. In age: 49-59

    I love all things girly but at the same time can't live without Sunday football! I pretty much like most things that guys like, which I feel makes me unique. One activity at the top of my daily to do list is to laugh as much as I can even if it means laughing at myself! The person I would like to date feels this way too. Having a good sense of humor helps one get through the tough times life can bring...maybe even a little old-fashioned too. I always appreciate a man who makes the first move and/or plans a date.I am a total water person! Love anything involving water sports, swimming, bubble baths, spas, lakes, oceans and especially tropical locations! I'm an active, outgoing woman who believes in having a balanced life, which is something I'm always working to achieve.Work is what I do not who I am. My relationships with family and friends are important and I try to stay connected as much as possible. I love and appreciate the outdoors and when the weather is nice I need to be outside. Eating healthy is important but I let myself indulge in a bit of chocolate or carbs from time to time. Swimming and/or hiking are activities I do at least 5 days a week.Physical attraction and chemistry are elements that can keep a relationship alive and exciting, but really connecting with someone and taking the time to get to know that person can create a happy, long lasting relationship. First dates can be a bit awkward so I like to keep it simple....meeting for a glass of wine or coffee works for me.

    Woman. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Capricorn.

    Looking for: man. In age: 52-62

    I am interested in finding a partner to enjoy life with. I enjoy trying new restaurants, going to concerts, walking on the beach, yoga, comedy, traveling and just hanging around the house listening to music. I enjoy gardening, cooking and being outdoors doing just about anything. My family and friends are very important to me. Actually, my thought is that if you like my photo, words don't mean much until we meet and begin to know one another....
