About Me

I can see my life entering a new phase soon, and I am determined to find the right person to share it with. I've raised my son by myself and as such my personal life has taken a backseat for oh say the last decade ... but I don't regret it at all. As I find myself with more time and freedom, I look forward to meeting the one person I can build a lasting, intimate partnership with. My past was quite turbulent. It's mostly uneventful now, and I like it that way. Don't confuse that with boring, however, there's fun everyday and I laugh so so so often. My first job in life is my son, and I have worked hard to give us both a great life. I am eager to invite the right person to join the fun. My job-job is hi tech sales, it's high pressure but I love it. I seem to be always on the run and I like to decompress at the gym, hiking, riding my road bike or of course a great happy hour. I love my small circle of friends and am eager to share the joys in my life with those around me. Taking the time to get to know me, you'll find that I'm independent, energetic, successful, low drama, funny, smart .. .and one heck of a cook! My match? I appreciate height, intelligence, humor, energy and independence. I'm looking for that connection, that person who's got my back while I have his, who makes me stretch farther and experience more than I will on my own. You're still reading? Without strong family ties of my own, I'm definitely searching for that in a LTR (have no fear, your mom's gonna love me!) I have a huge heart that gets hurt easily, so if you're not sincere please click to the next profile (I hear she's easy). Seriously, please be at least a year out of your marriage. I almost forgot the most important part. I make a great partner! I'm there, but not incessantly. I give and receive love, but am not needy. I am passionate, but not psychotic -- and old enough to know the difference. My ideal first date? A quiet spot, coffee shop, wine bar, park bench .. Someplace relaxed so we can share more about ourselves, hear and see each other. This time should give us both ample opportunity to size each other up :-) Ha! That sounds a lot colder than I intended, but you get the idea!

    Woman. 49 years old. Zodiac sign: Gemini.

    Looking for: man. In age: 46-56

    I successfully raised a wonderful daughter by myself. She and her husband made me a grandma last year. Being a grandparent is the greatest thing ever! I'm in a good place in my life right now. I have a stable job that I enjoy. My family and friends are the best people in the world! They helped make me who I am today. ;)I would like to find a man that's considerate, affectionate, sincere and occasionally romantic. My must haves in a relationship are trust, respect, appreciation, laughter and a love of God. I'll be the big ***soon and I'm ready to meet the right man, settle down and enjoy life as a partner. If you'd like to know more, send me a message. Thanks for looking. Good luck in your search! I think a first date should be limited to one hour. If you meet and there's no chemistry, you know you only have 59 more minutes to get through. However, if there is a mutual chemistry, you'll leave them wanting to see you again soon! I also believe the first date should be casual like taking a walk by the river or going to a park. That way, you'll both be comfortable and can have a relaxed conversation.

    Woman. 47 years old. Zodiac sign: Gemini.

    Looking for: man. In age: 44-54

    I would describe myself as calm, laid back and easy going.I eat healthy most of the time but like my indulges too.I love the peace & serenity that comes from life when you stop to take notice.I listen to a variety of music, lyrics have a way to draw me into a song. Nothing like sharing a bottle of wine and some good conversation. I could lay on a beach all day. I would love to travel and explore more of this country and the world. Laughing out loud is essential...need more of it!Reading, writing, reflection, gratitude and just being open and aware are things I strive to incorporate into my life. I am looking for someone that is financially stable (good with their money) no matter how much they make. No gamblers allowed. I have allot of interests as noted and if you like allot of the things on my list then I think thats a good start.
