About Me

I'm retired but still full of spirit and silliness and think of myself as an individualist. My photos are recent and have been told I look quite sophisticated. It's how I look, NOT how I am. Actually, I'm very down-to-earth and unpretentious and prefer people who are the same. I was blessed to have inherited my Dad's sense of humor and you'll usually find me smiling or laughing at the absurdities of life. I usually make the best of things even when they don't go my way. I enjoy my home but like getting out, seeing new places and trying new things. I enjoy using my mind and have an interest in a wide variety of things. The things that make me most happy are very often the simplest things... time with friends, flea markets & yard sales (hoping to find an unexpected treasure), people watching, preparing a meal together (I'm a pretty good cook), going for a drive stopping for lunch at some charming spot we will find along the way. I've been single for a very long time and to tell the truth, I've never found the single life particularly satisfying. I enjoy being with others and what would make me most happy would be to find a parter I can love and cherish and share the joys life has to offer. I'm affectionate but not over-bearing, intelligent but not a know-it-all and I am considerate and thoughtful of others. There are many things I enjoy, but doing becomes delight when I can share it with the one I love. Honesty is most important and I treat others, including myself, with respect and fairness. Being able to share some of my interests with my partner is important to me but I think the most important thing to share is our values, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise when we disagree. I think it's also important to respect our needs for private time.I have a delightful dog, a Havapoo (Havanese/poodle) who goes by the name, Shana. She's 12 lbs, very sweet and calm, and all who meet her love her. My music tastes run from jazz, the old standards, to the classics. I've been singing jazz all my life and a couple of years ago decided to study the craft and learn proper singing technique to preserve my voice till death do us part. I love a good discussion on many subjects: (currents events, what's been happening in our lives, sharing something we have recently read, thought provoking or funny movies, musicals and documentaries. Having said all that, I think the most important things in a relationship are the values we share, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise if or when we don't agree and a respect for our needs for privacy. I am not a religious person but live my life with honesty, integrity and love. And after all is said and done, I'd love to meet someone who is kind, romantic, has some smarts, and is healthy with a healthy sense of humor and who lives within 50 miles of Portland. What's inside is more important to me than appearances although I must admit to finding excessive weight a turn-off.I think I'll end on that note and hope what I've written appeals to you.I prefer a first date to be very casual, meeting in a quiet, public place for coffee or perhaps to share a light meal. We'll get to know a bit about each other and share a few laughs. If all goes well we'll make plans to meet again. :-}

    Before I say a few key things about me, I would like to point out a few entertaining things about this site and the profiles that I have read. First off, SO many gentlemen explain that they like to have a good time, hang out with their friends and are easygoing. I find this humorous in that I have yet to read a profile that says, I do not like to have a good time. Further more, I do not like hanging out with my friends and I am very up tight. ; ) Also, please do not send me a message that just says "Hi" or "How are you?" Please comment on something from either one of our profiles. In other words, start a conversation. Please and thank you : ) That being said, I am relatively new to the area. I like to meet people who are open minded and can make me laugh. A little sarcasm is definitely a good thing. I am also not afraid to laugh at myself . I try not to take things too seriously. Life is too short for that kind of stress. I really like animals, especially dogs. I love outdoor activities. I am pretty athletic, although sitting around and watching a movie can also be a good time. I am not looking for someone to do things for me or take care of me. For the most part I am pretty independent. But that doesn't mean that I don't appreciate it when a person does something nice for me or helps me out if I ask (asking for help is not something that is easy for me ;)I drink occasionally but not regularly by any means. I prefer to spend time with someone that does not require alcohol in order to have a good time. Also, I don't do well with smoke/smoking : / I am looking for someone that is not super timid or a push over. I get a long with guys that have stronger personalities and can push me just a bit when I need it. As a random side note, I love haunted houses and hay rides : )Please no coffee or drinks.
