About Me

Hi!Thank you for stopping by! I enjoy the outdoors, the warmth of the sun and good friends. I have a 23 y/o daughter and she is currently living at home. She is a recent graduate from Hamline University. I asked her to say one good thing about me for my meetville profile. She rolls her eyes and says, "ugh...really? I guess you would be the cool mom." I realized that being the cool mom is not so bad. .......... I have never married, however I was in a 23 year long-term relationship with my Daughter's father.I am the property manager at a ***unit residential rental home community. I am in the process of finishing my last semester towards my Bachelors Degree in Law Enforcement/Criminal Justice and currently enrolled in my last two classes. I graduate in December ***. I volunteer for many non-profits, such as; a victim's advocate/liaison, the annual "Hope Rocks"-call for one of the Metro Sheriff's Departments. My journey has made me who I am and I feel good in my own skin. I tend to be competitive, walk off the beaten path, and I occasionally will step out of my comfort zone. I prefer honesty over flattery and I have a low tolerance for drama. Our vulnerabilities and imperfections are often what allow others to relate to us. My favorite types of food include; Sushi/sashimi, Thai, Indian, Mexican.....however a burger and a beer at a small town bar is always a great option. My musical tastes are all over the board, however I recently started listening to Cities 97. Does this mean I am growing up? I am 5' ***" and looking for someone at least my height or taller, between the ages of ***. I am attracted to men that are physically active, have dark hair, clean shaven (or have very little facial hair), adventurous, silly and playful. I am looking for laughter, "spark" (chemistry) and mutual attraction.-chain restaurants, bonfires, waterfalls, small towns, craft beers, margaritas, walking/hiking on the wooded trails and experiencing new adventures. Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it.One thing I want to do in the Spring ***is get my motorcycle endorsement/license. I always wanted to learn....plus my new bike is just sitting in the garage waiting. The happiest people do not have the best of everything, they make the best of everything! ;) First meet: Somewhere public and quiet. Happy hour, coffee, a local park or lake. If the chemistry is there, then a date would be the next step.

    Woman. 50 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 47-57

    Here we go......Friends first.. Exciting and scary.Confident, intelligent, funny (I like my jokes), successful with a bit of an edge. I love the flow of conversation and quick witted banter.I am looking for someone I can talk with. Someone who likes to have fun. Someone who shares similar values like the golden rule, good manners, appreciation, gratitude and romance. I get enjoyment from doing the little things that make a difference.Smart, reliable, honest, people will say that you are as good as your word. Integrity, kindness, and warmth are expected, appreciated and reciprocated.You are not afraid to try new things and are excited about the possibilities a new relationship can bring to your life. You think that it's great that we have different past times as that allows us time on our own as well an opportunity to show each other something new. If you are looking for someone to be joined at the hip, I am not your girl.You have learned from your past relationships, done whatever forgiving was required and are ready to move forward. This is a pretty serious and straightforward profile. I think that finding the right partner is a serious endeavour. Don’t worry, I have a silly and fun side. If this profile reflects your values, I would love to hear from you.

    Fun. outgoing, love to have cookouts and gatherings on my deck in spring and summer. I don't want any wanderers, liars , or slouchers.....I am none of these and don't like a lot of drama. I'm getting older and don't want the bullshit. I want a man who can take care of themselves, but wants a woman to share his interests and day with. I own my own place, and pay my bills..I am not looking for any handouts, nor, can I afford to give any. I love Harley's and enjoy riding VERY MUCH !!! I have a 15 yr old son who is very responsible and whom I love with all my heart..of course.. He makes me laugh, he is such a good kid and am very proud of him ! I enjoy classic rock, southern rock, 80's big hair bands, motown and some country, and blues..just don't like opera..I don't get it ???? I love to laugh and have a good time, shoot pool, horseshoes, the beach, long rides to no where, friends, family, and just hanging out..I also enjoy sitting home once in awhile. Please ask if you need to know more. Ohhh....!!!! Good luck to all ! ....Whatever we decide on....

    Woman. 48 years old. Zodiac sign: Capricorn.

    Looking for: man. In age: 45-55

    I am a fun-loving, caring lady who doesn't meet a stranger! I have spent my life raising my family and now that they are all grown, I think I would like to begin the next phase of my life!I enjoy dancing, country music, antiques, festivals, history, cooking, and anything that had to do with the arts. As far as music that I like, there isn't much that I don't like except for Rap and Heavy Metal. I love classic rock, country, blues, jazz, classical.....pretty much everything! I am also a BIG football fan! HOOK 'EM HORNS!I like to go for walks, go to sit on the patio of a nice restaurant that has live music, going to the movies, dinner, and I love the water!I will warn you now...my grown children and two beautiful grandchildren are my world! They are wonderful people who have made their mother very proud! If you aren't a family person, well, you may need to move on.I'm not interested in playing games AT ALL. I'm not the jealous type and definitely not the crazy type! I'm a sweet, fun-loving person who is looking for a funny, sweet, easy going man. I'm looking to meet my best friend and we'll see where that takes us! If you would like to talk, message me! I think the first date is very important. This is when you find out how much you have in common and whether or not the person can hold a conversation!My favorite type of first date would be to meet at a coffee shop or a restaurant with an outdoor patio where we could just sit and talk without being rushed. I would love to spend an hour or two getting to know each other and then decide whether a second date is in order.
