About Me

***Update:I first joined this site a few years back while I was separated; I think mainly because I was lonely and wanted new people to talk to. Then my husband and I worked things out and I stopped logging in. Sadly, he passed away about 6 months ago, but at least the sparks in our marriage had come back and we had some special times before I lost him. I've only been back on here for a week or so. Not even sure I should be here, but I know he would want me to have male companionship of some kind. So here I am.The diversity of those on this site fascinates me to no end. There are so many differences in personalities and interests, yet all sharing at least this one thing in common by being on here. People sure are interesting. :-) I hope to make some new friends while here. If I initiate contact with you through the site’s ***, I have read your profile and something you’ve written has caught my attention. I do, on occasion, write to someone that I already know will not be interested in me as a potential match (some of you fellas are more specific than others when describing what you’re looking for), or vice versa. Don’t assume my intentions are anything other than an appreciation of some part of you. Chances are, I honed in on your great sense of humor and thought I’d enjoy chatting with you, want to compliment you on your excellent profile-making skills, or am curious and/or interested to learn more about some content in your profile.Now on to an attempt to describe myself……I hold back opening up to someone until I feel comfortable with them…sometimes that happens quickly, sometimes it takes awhile and sometimes it’s just not gonna happen.I am not outgoing, but I’m not an introvert either. I love meeting and listening to people, yet until someone gets to know me, they usually think I’m shy. I tend to be one of the more quiet ones in a group setting. That’s because I’m trying to hear what everyone else has to say. If you’re looking for “the life of the party” type of gal…I’m not her. More likely, I’m one of her dearest friends though.I love music…just about any kind. Always have. Always will. I can’t imagine a life without it. I have a deep respect and admiration for musicians (and a bit of envy). I will listen to anything at least once.I love animals…especially the furry kind.If I’m with friends…I’m usually having fun, regardless of what we are doing or where we are at. I enjoy both indoor and outdoor events/excursions/whatever else you care to call them. If you’re with the right person ANYTHING can be fun!I love road trips, preferably unhurried. I like taking time to stop and see the little things that aren’t necessarily mentioned in any tour guide and watching people along the way, and hopefully hearing their stories. I’ve never been able to work any world traveling into my budget, but if my sister ever wins the lottery (because I don’t play, and she promised to share if she ever wins big LOL), there are so many places I’d love to see!Some of my turn-offs:LiarsCrueltyMeaniesFakesFreeloadersRacistsClosed MindsCheatersControl FreaksHatersHomophobesInsecurityTo find the key to my heart you will need to be genuine, young at heart, well-mannered, loving, self-sufficient (I won’t be your maid, mommy or bank), honest, kind, have smiling eyes and a sense of humor (if you make me laugh, you’re halfway there).I don’t understand the concept of people “looking for a long-term relationship”. That is not something you find…IT finds you. If it’s going to happen, it’s going to happen, whether you want it to or not, AND not on your own personal preplanned timeline, but when it’s the right time for IT. I think some people get so caught up in the ‘looking’ that they forget to cultivate the friendships that could have been growing. One, of which, may have eventually blossomed into the exact thing they were looking for all along, but never end up finding due to their own haste and lack of patience. Look, if you feel the need to, but don’t throw away the friends you meet along the way.May you find joy in your life, Peace of mind, and laughter in your heart. Thanks for stopping by. xoxo I have not had a first date in years. No, make that decades!Open to suggestions. It seems obvious that it should be someplace we'd be able to talk and see if we're connecting at all. I suppose it would also depend on how much we had already talked on the phone or *** and forth. This is too generalized....to many unknowns for a definitive answer.

    Looking for: man. In age: 49-59

    I am a single mom with two children, a daughter age 11 and a son age 15. I am looking for someone to share good times with, be it watching football on tv or going to an actual game. Maybe going to a pond to do some fishing. Go bowling or maybe a round of golf (not great at it, but I like to play). Curling up on the couch to watch a good movie. Going for long walks. Walking around flea markets! Or maybe there are things you might like to do not mentioned. I love to listen to all types of music, but am a country music fan at heart. I am not on here for games. I am looking for a serious relationship that might lead to marriage. Hope you are out there somewhere!!! Maybe meet for breakfast somewhere!!

    About meI am warm, kind, friendly, university educated and professionally employed. I relate well with people and enjoy exchanging on experiences and ideas. . I am not a "Barbie" but ensure that I do some physical activity every day. I have a gym membership at Goodlife but hate going alone! Care to join me? I alternate between cardio work and strenght training. I am blessed with a good circle of friends, some of them from High School others from College and some from University. We often do activities together. I believe it is important to invest some special time in ourselves"to recharge our batteries" and look for balance in our lives to keep our mind and body healthy. I would like to meet someone who understands that it is important to do things together, talk and make sure that we make the time to connect and solidify our couple.It is equally important to keep some activities apart so we can nurture our friendships and external supports. Many women who are mothers forget this and if their marriage fails they find themselves alone without any support. I am not perfect and readily take responsibility for my mistakes. I believe in giving back to my community and volunteer my time to children and senior's causes. I am very close to my aging parents and help them out when needed. My loved ones are very important to me and I believe in demonstrating it by actions as well as words. We never know what tomorrow holds for us. When I need to juggle many responsibilities, I hide my profile. My work requirements are sometimes quite demanding and make it impossible for me to socialise...Please do not interpret this as impolite or unfriendly...About youYou are easygoing,honest, gentle, kind, courteous and respectful. You hopefully share some of my interests. You like animals and you are not allergic. Hopefully you will not recoil when I come back from a visit at the stable. I can assure you that I always clean up nicely after my visits. You are not looking for Barbie as you know the only place you will find her is at Toys R Us!-smoker and if you drink you only do so socially. You look after your health not to show off your abs of steel but to keep chronic diseases at bay or under control so you can be there for the ones you love and care deeply for. I feel very strongly about not smoking. It is one of the most important thing that you can do for your health and those around you that will significantly make a positive change in your life with exercising. You are around my age so that we are more likely in the same stage in our lives. You enjoy discovering new places hand in hand with that special ally. You take pleasure in the small every day occurrences such as a smile, a friendly greeting and chat with a neighbour. You do not sweat the small stuff and are the proud owner of a sense of humour. You get along well with family, friends and co-workers. I am looking for a kind and forgiving heart in a partner. I prefer to see the drama on the silverscreen not in my life. Your being single is extremely important to me. I prefer to meet a man who has his life in order. Separation is a period fraught with all the upheaval of emotions and not the time to try and build a relationship. Please have a recent picture of your facial features at least or insert one with your message, this way should we decide to meet I will recognize you. I too felt uncomfortable at the beginning because of my profession. One can't help but wonder why you are hiding your features even in a private message... Interested in getting to know me still? Then do drop a line! Let's get to know one another and become friends so that we build a strong foundation. I am looking for someone who can still talk and laugh with me into old age...:-)Please note my mother tongue is French. I get by fairly well writing in English. Because of this, I prefer talking on the phone or in person as e-mails do not convey the true meaning of what is really being said. You miss the intonation of the voice as well as the body language that truly conveys the message...I do not reply to the Meet Me messages and I always remove myself from anyone's favourite list. Please send a message to my box if you really want to meet me...Je suis à la recherche d’un homme tendre, sensible, courtois et respectueux qui possède de l’intelligence émotionnelle. Il sait que la beauté physique est éphémère et qu’il préfère partager sa vie avec une partenaire qui possède des qualités et valeurs durables. Il recherche quelqu’un qui saura le soutenir dans ses moments difficiles comme par les jours de beau temps. Il sait que la délicatesse, le respect et l’empathie sont de grande importance pour une bonne communication et la bonne entente au sein d'un couple. Il préfère cheminer lentement afin de bâtir quelque chose de solide. Ma langue maternelle est le français je suis donc plus confortable lorsque je m'exprime dans la langue de Molière. Je préfère parler au téléphone ou en personne car les courriels ne contiennent pas les indices qui permettent de vraiment communiquer clairement. On n'entend pas les intonations de la voix et on manque les indices du language du corps qui nous dévoilent beaucoup plus que de simples mots...*********Sorry but the IM function does not work with my Ipad*************** Online fishing can be...Oh, so frustrating! I much prefer to meet someone in a social environment such as single activities as you get to know the real person this way and it is a more relaxed atmosphere. Je préfère rencontrer une personne en faisant une activité de cette façon l'atmosphère est plus propice à l'échange et beaucoup moins stressante!
