About Me

The shape may change, but not the form—It's always the same inside, no matter what the action—whether you live 10 years or one hundred years and do one thing or a thousand things, there is no difference; all activity is the same in essence, only the outward appearance differs. Whether repairing an engine or writing a novel, all are just sequences of steps; all that matters are quality and enjoyment. Whatever one person's dreams may be, all of our dreams are the same. The shape changes but not the form; it is the dream itself that is important and the hope of what can be. If you can impress me with your words, you're golden—no pressure. I'm actually pretty easy-going, and I promise not to grade your grammar as you speak. =}I am looking for the right person, not just any person. Intelligence, education, someone who reads—humor, individuality, creativity, someone who has contemplated all the nuances of their experiences and used that knowledge to grow. Perhaps someone who has been through a lot and got through it okay. I am a part of the modern counter-culture. Unfortunately, old-school gothic English professors are a rarity, and I don't meet a lot of people into the things I enjoy who are also highly successful and together. This time around I am interested in someone seasoned, who is open to being with someone different—me. I am unique, exceptional, and I am proud of who I am and what I have accomplished. I am quite versatile as well and have done a lot in my life. I was born on a fishing boat, to an Italian commercial fisherman, rebelled against those old-world values only to re-embrace many of them as I have grown older. I put myself through school; I have worked hard my entire life, and because of that, I am grounded. I am also loyal, sophisticated yet street-smart, complex yet funny. I am a huge fan of duality and balance. I am also a lover of nature and find deep spiritual connection in natural environments as well as in high culture. I am a refined, free-thinker and political. I am a world traveler; I strive for excellence in my own life and focus my attention on positive energy. Writers, thinkers, artistic people, individuals with strong character are all highly desirable. Loyalty, respectfulness, integrity, a person who questions/thinks are a must. Someone who is genuine and who knows themselves and what they want! A good listener/conversationalist is also required. Being an English teacher means that my partner must be able to stimulate my mind. Inner-strength, passion, romance--I miss kissing. Someone deep, may be even a bit dark, but has their life together and is good to people. Being able to intelligibly express feelings (which seems to be difficult for some) and being unique themselves is also important to me. Oh, and you must love cats. =}Lately I have gained an interest in science and cognitive ability/brain function when it comes to learning. I had removed myself from the grid and was living in the high desert, but am now back by the ocean. In this time, I have gained an in-depth appreciation for nature, clean living and clean food, magnetism, metaphysics; I would love to learn actual physics. One day I want to go back to school for my PhD. Wine-tasting, a museum, park picnic (I cook). Some place to focus on one another and talk while enjoying one of those finer things.

    Hey, I'm Nikki. This is the first time I've ever been on a online dating site and never thought it would happen. I am a believer that nowadays this may be the best way to meet a quality person rather than going into a bar. I'm looking to meet new people, not people that just want a fling or one night stand. Would like to meet someone who doesn't want to move too fast and would like to explore friendship along with the possibility of a relationship. "See where it goes?" I've had the same job for 19 years and am proud of this. I am a genuine, up front person with a great sense of humor. I consider myself "Butch" and prefer to date a woman who is more feminine than me. I'm hoping to meet someone that could make me laugh, doesn't take life too seriously but is stable, and that accepts me for who I am.--I have a great respect for the Native American Culture and arts. I attend local POW WOWs and keep myself involved and supporting of Native American Charities. I love to walk by my local river which is near my home. I like light hiking and discovering new places. Love music and enjoy seeing a band once in a while.Hope to hear from you..... Again, am looking to meet new people.

    Woman. 36 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: woman. In age: 33-43

    Me:---I am kind, compassionate, principled, and self-reflective.---I like... book stores (any of those still around?), film, the 80s, plays, musicals, art galleries, museums, improv, comedy shows, nature, volunteering, traveling, social justice/AIDS activism.---I am an ethical vegan and an animal rights activist. Veganism is at the core of my deepest values, and it'd be super rad to date another vegan, but I'm open to dating non-vegans. ***As a corollary to the last point, it's important to me to date someone who likes animals. I love my dogs to pieces, so dating someone who doesn't like dogs would likely not work out.--I have my master's in English and teach 8th grade English. It took me way too many years to figure out that the epidemic of teenagers staring at their laps during class is not a medical ailment, but rather, they're texting.---I am responsible, stable, and honest, and I value those traits in others.--I feel most at peace when I'm in nature and/or with animals.--I find humor in a lot of things; I'm funny, quirky, sarcastic, and fun to be with.On a personal note: I was married prior to prop 8 passing and got divorced almost 3 years ago. Ultimately, I do want to find a life partner again, though I am fine with casual dating in the meantime. I'm independent, introspective, and introverted (and apparently really identify with words that contain the prefix "-in") and really value and need solitude and time alone; I hope my partner will appreciate this, as I would honor her private/alone time too.Despite my introverted nature, I have incredible, fun, funny friends who are important and valuable to me, and time with them really nourishes my soul. It's important to me that my partner also has her own friends and that we each maintain healthy social relationships outside of our relationship. I am not into neglecting my friends when I'm in a relationship, and I wouldn't expect my partner to neglect her friends either. And, getting to know each other's friends would be fun, too! Regarding children: I know, with certainty, that I never want biological children. If I do have children, I will adopt or foster- an older child/children.Feel free to ***'re nice.--You're funny.--you're fun.--You're vegan.--You want to have a vegan meal.--You don't get offended easily.--You want someone with whom to explore L.A. or other areas.--You like animals.--You want to meet at the dog park with our respective dogs.--You enjoy the journey as much as the destination.--You've read something you like and think we'd get along.Cheers!
