I've read some great profiles on here and I'm stealing the format of a good one. ME... I am very happy and content in my current life. I am blessed with 2 beautiful daughters, both happily married to great guys. This year they gave me the greatest gifts... a beautiful granddaughter and a handsome grandson. I know... I look waaaay too young to be a grandma...lol. I have a beautiful home that I share with my furry best friend. It used to be 2, but I recently lost one : (. I am so blessed to have a huge circle of friends, both male and female, that have and continue to be there for me in so many ways. I have a great job that I love but believe it's important to balance that with a very active social life. I love to travel and a good winter for me, includes 2 sunny destination getaways. Although I don't own a cottage, I'm very lucky to have so many friends with cottages and their invites allow me to enjoy many cottage getaways throughout the year. I maintain a healthy, active lifestyle and try eat healthy most of the time, although I admit that chocolate and red wine are a weakness. Really the only thing missing in my life is a great man to share it with. I once had an amazing, happy, wonderful marriage and I believe that if I can find the right man, I can once again, have it all.YOU... While I believe that it important that we have our own interests, I also believe that we must have similar values and priorities in life. You, like me, are content with your current life, because despite life's tough lessons you have chosen to make life good. It is a choice. You have your own group of friends (the real kind that are there for both good and bad times and come running when needed in those bad times, cause I believe that says so much about the person you are). You are financially secure and travel often, or would like to travel more, if only you had an awesome travel companion. : ) You work at being healthy, exercising and eating well, or wish you did and are willing to work towards it. Oh... and you MUST love dogs, cause I do live with my furry (non-shedding, hypoallergenic) best friend. You value honesty and believe it's easier to be yourself than try to be someone else to win affection. Although a long term relationship is your final goal, you are willing to take things slowly, starting off as friends, enjoying the "getting to know you" phase and allowing our relationship to grow into something that can stand the test of time. US.... we send a few *** both agree to meet sooner rather than later, because we believe that this is just a place to connect with other singles and what we are really hoping to find is that elusive and unexplainable chemistry. We meet for a drink because it helps us both to relax a little and we find our chemistry is amazing. The conversation is effortless and the laughter comes easy. We both feel like we can be totally ourselves and the time passes quickly. The evening ends with a hug and quick kiss because we don't want to rush this exciting "getting to know each other feeling" that we both feel has the potential to go somewhere really great. We both wait in anticipation of our next date and our first "real" kiss. If you've read this far and think that you could be the YOU in US, please take the time to send a "thought out" ***'ll overlook the spelling mistakes and assume they are "typos"...lol If you really want to meet me, *** say so and please don't add me to your favourites. The first date is really just a meeting. Where we go and what we do is really not important... it'll be the second date that really counts.

Hello. I am new to Plenty of Fish and hoping to meet that someone special. I was divorced several years ago and i'm now interested in finding someone to share my life with, now that my two kids are grown and out on their own. I enjoy the outdoors and would love to meet someone who enjoys the same; walks, water sports, tennis, hiking. In my spare time I enjoy crafts, reading, time with friends. I like going to movies and concerts. I enjoy all kinds of music (except hard rock and rap), but I seem to listen mostly to country music and 70's. I work in the medical field and get great satisfaction from my job. I am honest, loyal, respectful, compassionate, I enjoy the simple things in life. I enjoy social time but also enjoy quiet time hanging out at home. *** new... added June '12 .. Looking forward to making new friends. I enjoy meeting somewhere for a drink, bite to eat. Love a place with outdoor seating, music in the background, quiet enough to be able to talk and get to know each other.

I am a divorced lady with no children. I am still friendly with my ex, and now feel ready to get back into the social scene. I work for a large travel agency and would love to have someone to travel with! I have two cats, whom I love, and I plan to add a dog to my home very soon, so you MUST be an animal lover! I don't care about age, as long as it's not too huge a gap either way. I am looking for someone easygoing, stable, and calm, who enjoys going out but also likes to stay home and veg once in a while. Anyone I'm with has to be at least somewhat liberal, yet also not hate country music!This poem is a favorite of mine. If it speaks to you also, please contact me!The DanceI have sent you my invitation,the note inscribed on the palm of my hand by the fire of living.Don’t jump up and shout, “Yes, this is what I want! Let’s do it!”Just stand up quietly and dance with me.Show me how you follow your deepest desires,spiraling down into the ache within the ache,and I will show you how I reach inward and open outwardto feel the kiss of the Mystery, sweet lips on my own, every day.Don’t tell me you want to hold the whole world in your heart.Show me how you turn away from making another wrong without abandoning yourself whenyou are hurt and afraid of being unloved.Tell me a story of who you are,and see who I am in the stories I live.And together we will remember that each of us always has a choice.Don’t tell me how wonderful things will be . . . some day.Show me you can risk being completely at peace,truly okay with the way things are right now in this moment,and again in the next and the next and the next. . .I have heard enough warrior stories of heroic daring.Tell me how you crumble when you hit the wall,the place you cannot go beyond by the strength of your own will.What carries you to the other side of that wall, to the fragile beauty of your own humanness?And after we have shown each other how we have set and kept the clear, healthy boundaries thathelp us live side by side with each other, let us risk remembering that we never stop silentlylovingthose we once loved out loud.Take me to the places on the earth that teach you how to dance,the places where you can risk letting the world break your heart.And I will take you to the places where the earth beneath my feet and the stars overhead makemy heart whole again and again.Show me how you take care of businesswithout letting business determine who you are.When the children are fed but still the voices within and around us shout that soul’s desires havetoo high a price,let us remind each other that it is never about the money.Show me how you offer to your people and the worldthe stories and the songsyou want our children’s children to remember.And I will show you how I struggle not to change the world,but to love it.Sit beside me in long moments of shared solitude,knowing both our absolute aloneness and our undeniable belonging.Dance with me in the silence and in the sound of small daily words,holding neither against me at the end of the day.And when the sound of all the declarations of our sincerestintentions has died away on the wind,dance with me in the infinite pause before the next great inhaleof the breath that is breathing us all into being,not filling the emptiness from the outside or from within.Don’t say, “Yes!”Just take my hand and dance with me.© Oriah Mountain Dreamer, from the book The Dance, HarperONE, SanFrancisco, ***I like to keep the first meeting pretty casual -- a cup of coffee or maybe a glass of wine, conversation, see what comes from that . . .
