About Me

First line up there? If you get it, please give it a chuckle. Thanks. I appreciate that. I hate the new descriptors meetville is using, so if you are looking for a coffee snob, it ain't me. I don't drink coffee. But I really don't think film tv buff is me either. Sure I watch them but they certainly aren't my life. The whole am I looking for a date, a husband or a partner forever thing puts me off as well. Why can't there be multiple choices there? I don't know. I was with my husband for 28 years or so, then he died. I dated a bit, then found an online guy. Who lived too far away. Well that guy dumped me for a local gal after almost three years. I truly don't know what I want now. I just know I don't want that. I hesitate to put that here on meetville because when I did I ran into all kinds of people I know. And I know well. And sure I'm not at the point where this isn't all a little embarrassing still. Damn if only I was still twenty and cute as hell! I'd walk down the street and get dates and marriage proposals! Job offers too! But life has gone on and I'm just an older chubbier chick looking for something real. Back to my scheduled profile:DARE TO BE GREATLooking for a caring, trustworthy, witty, tolerant man who,DOESN'T MIND A WOMAN WITH MORE THAN CARRY-ON BAGGAGE!Because I have baggage, lots of baggage, to wit;I was happily married, 28 years, no, you are right, you can not compete with a dead man. And I will never ask you to!I have children! You read that right children. And......it gets better! They all live with me. No joint custody, no grandparents. just me. Yes, two are old enough to move out and one even did!, however, for now, as long as I need THEM, they are staying. And they are my responsibility, so no worries! So, okay, if the first two didn't get ya, this one should. I live in the middle of NOWHERE.....I like walking, reading, cooking, just hanging out. I love concerts, museums, checking out new places and people. I like driving fast and riding motorcycles, but I am not a biker. I love hanging out with my kids and learning from them.I drink, but never to excess. I'd rather watch other people make fools of themselves than do it myself.I love my job and the people that I work with and meet there.I am a redhead, by choice and refuse to give in to grey!!!! I am too young to be old.I am readjusting my life to being single. I am not a divorcee, if you don't know what that means, figure it out.I do have kids and I am now for the first time in my life a single mom. They are great kids and are practically self sufficient, but they do need me occasionally.I run a business and I have very flexible hours that allow me to take care of family, friends and have a private life as well. I live near a city center and like going over and listening to bands and going to comedy clubs. I like to dance but I am a little shy on the dance floor. Okay, fixing that, apparently with one shot of tequila I am not shy at all.Hey, just existing, trying to have fun. Filling in time between work and kids with this website. I guess it's more fun than playing solitaire, not sure, let me check my cards.What am I really good at? No clue. Reading, writing, arithmetic? Balancing the books?I wish I could say reading people, but no. I wish I could say seeing the future, but no.I guess I'm okay at raising kids and doing the juggling act between work, family and trying to have a, uh, hmm, well, you know, social life. I do try.Okay, my sense of humor is well developed. Sorry guys but that means, no, I really don't enjoy Southpark that much, but I don't care if you do.I do settle disputes relatively well, luckily as it is part of my job, helps with a big family as well.Ah, thought of one at last, I am really good at remaining calm during emergencies, is this one? First date huh? Well I would say meet for coffee. But I don't drink coffee. I do drink tea though. The only problem with that is I generally live too far away to just meet for coffee. So I don't know. Get together and figure out if we click or not would be the most important thing. If that's over a pizza or a drink, either is fine.

    Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Pisces.

    Looking for: man. In age: 48-58

    Well, I've been doing this dating thing for a while now and I must say... its sure not like it used to be. Very interesting and a little confusing. A lot of people out there looking for *** or not really looking for anything at all..... hummmmm.... I spend a lot of time at the American River.... in/on or near the water. However, I am a country girl and I do prefer the peace, quiet and wide open spaces far more than the city.. but I am learning to adjust. lolI am very compassionate, loving, thoughtful person that always tries to make sure the people around me are happy. I've raised 3 daughters that are on their own now and have 2 beautiful grand babies that I love spending time with. Personality.. let's see.. fun loving, caring, honest to a fault, dedicated to all things important to me. Values- honesty, family, self sufficiency, happiness, certainty, uncertainty, growth, connection, contribution.Relationship priorities- pretty much all of the above. A relationship is a process, too many people try to jump in without really learning about each other. I think that two people need to be friends first and grow and learn together. I don't believe that any person can "complete" another person. We all have to be happy and "complete" with ourselves otherwise we are not ready to share ourselves with someone else. Love is not automatic, love at 1st sight sounds so romantic, but I don't think its a reality.. how can you possibly love someone that you don't know. Most people "put on" masks when dating, they try to be what they think the other person wants or needs. It takes time for people to become comfortable with each other and show their true self. I have learned that in life... and EVEN MORE so by being on these dating sites... My interest vary greatly.. I'm from a small town and love the country life... horses, cattle, goats, dogs, cats, sheep etc... (always hated fowl though :0).. but I've also learned to be comfortable in the city. I love camping, fishing, hunting, boating, playing pool, drives to the coast, travel.. and the list goes on and on.. I do have things that scare me and will probably never do.. ie. skydiving, scuba diving, bungee jumping.. but its okay if you don't mind doing those things by yourself.. I'll watch.This question seems to come up a lot. The one thing I do believe in is total honesty. If you cant be honest... whats the point. right ? The option choices under marital status do not have "divorce filed, working out the details" .. If it did, I would pick that. The fact is I am still legally married, so I couldn't chose divorced as my status. My divorce is taking longer than normal due to owning a business together, I will change my status to divorced as soon as it is final. There is absolutely no drama going on and no possibility of reconciliation... anything that will give us a chance to chat and get to know each other. If we click, great.... if not.. well, nobody can have too many friends.

    Woman. 53 years old. Zodiac sign: Gemini.

    Looking for: man. In age: 50-60

    I love kids, animals, being outside,camping, travel, travel, travel,almost all kinds of music, the stars you can see only in the mountains, eating out, movies, funny conversation, laughing til I cry, autumn, dark roast coffee, taking the long way home, merlot, great cities, summer evenings on the deck, fast cars, walking my dog by the river, the ocean, new adventures and oh, so much more.I try to live a healthy lifestyle through exercise and eating right, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy a good meal with a glass of wine or a cold beer at a baseball game. I do enjoy working out and am looking for someone who shares a goal of healthy living. I think my friends would describe me as funny, intelligent, a bit sarcastic, giving, hard working,self-sufficient, and a good friend. (At least, I would like to think that...lol)I'm seeking a connection with someone who is easy going,easy to get along with and, yes, easy on the eyes. A job is essential, but not at the expense of time for anything else in their life.I have two teens...one in college and one at home. Both are great kids morphing into wonderful young adults. A great first date to me would be a nice, but casual dinner and drinks with lots of easy conversation.
