About Me

I've relocated back to my homestate after grad school and a 12 year hiatus and would like to meet some new people in the area.. lots can change in a dozen years, right? . Perhaps you want to show me around your favorite places or take me with you on an adventure.. I'm always game for exploring or having an intellectual conversation, or just having a few drinks and a bunch of laughs. I don't have time or interest in hitting the bar scene on a regular basis, but I do enjoy the opportunity to get out and scope out new venues for good food, drink and entertainment.I'm a strong independent woman who tends to scare guys who aren't self-confident off, but I'm really a passionate and sensitive person who wants meaningful relationships just like everyone else. I'm totally down to earth, confident in myself and enjoy art and music as a way of life. I am creative, educated, inspired by nature and know how to have a good time. I would love to find someone who I could share adventures and experiences with, both good and bad. Life is indeed too short to go it alone. However, I would rather do my own thing than put up with someone else's bullshit. Friends and family are very important to me; I am happy to say that there is no drama to report here!. I really enjoy cooking gourmet meals and I would love to have someone to share them with. It's hard to picture where exactly I'll be in the next five or ten years, but I do know that a strong community around me is really important.If I haven't scared you off yet..please read on: It would be nice to find someone to share adventures and quality moments with... creative, funny and outdoorsy guys get bonus points. I don't intend to design what the perfect guy should be; that's not my goal. I like a self-confident, intelligent man who knows who he is and doesn't need me to 'make him happy' but someone who enjoys me for who I am and also loves to do his own thing. Show me a great hiking spot or share your passions and I'll share mine. I am very attracted to hard working men who are not afraid to get dirty but can clean up nicely when necessary! Spending lots of time in my studio makes me happy! I'm a bit of a romantic too. Sunset strolls on the beach, candlelight dinners, picnics and adventurous getaways, or a night of snuggling with a good movie are my idea of a fun time. I don't watch TV, and don't care to; Netflix is a decent compromise.. soaking in hotsprings under the moonlight.. discovering beauty in silence and laughing until it hurts.I enjoy a wide variety of music and enjoy going to see shows or just checking out what people have on their ipod or in their album collection.. I love a good and funky bassline and clever lyrics. Lately I've been listening to lots of bluegrass. Always open to listening to new music. I am always happy to meet positive an intelligent folks no matter where I live. I'm really looking forward to establishing gardens again and getting back to my roots. Positivity can get a person everywhere in life. And a strong sense of humor somehow helps us get through all the crazy sh*t that is going on in this world. I'm pretty liberal.. so please don't try to start a political argument with me. Drop me a line if you think we have similar interests. Robo-muscle men, conservatives and those looking for a one-night stand need not respond. Depends on mutual interests... Maybe meeting up for tea or coffee or other fine beverages and we can discuss whatever comes up.. see where it goes from there... something fun and an opportunity to talk and laugh is ideal.

    Woman. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Aquarius.

    Looking for: man. In age: 52-62

    Hello out there. About me.... I would describe myself as confident, humorous, bright, adventurous, passionate, and active. On a deeper level I enjoy giving and receiving affection and want you to be that way too. I am not looking for someone to take care of me except in a loving reciprocal way as you would expect in a great relationship. I enjoy discussing current events, the funny or serious ironies of life, or any deep subject. I see self-improvement as a way of life. I am social but enjoy the quiet times too, alone, with friends, or with an amazing man, of course. The type of man I find the most interesting is one who takes care of himself on both the inside and out, is athletic, has an energy in mind, body, and spirit and is excited about looking forward and exploring all that life has to offer. In addition to importance of physical attraction, I believe having a great relationship takes open and fearless communication. It would also be great to meet a man who also has children who can relate to the joys and challenges of parenthood and of course the crazy and funny side of it too. My match will also be someone who is fully available and wants to be in a mature relationship. OTHER STUFF ABOUT ME: My pets: I have two cats. I have had dogs in the past but I prefer cats. My workouts (I am fit and active and want my man to value a healthy lifestyle too): Boot camp, cycling (outside and inside) weight lifting, walking, hiking. I ski but not very often. Having fun with my kids and friends. I also like: a lot of different kinds of music (I actually love music), movies and gardening. I am passionate about the environment and being out in nature whether it be the water or the mountains.
